Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TMDS181, HD3SS215
Hi everyone,
I am designing a motherboard based on Intel's i3/i5/i7 cpus.
It is a motherboard dedicated to different applications.
Application 1: 2 integrated displays 16inch (DisplayPort) and 1 HDMI port
Application 2 : 1 integrated display 27inch (DisplayPort) and 1 HDMI port
Application 3 : 2 integrated displays 32inch (HDMI)
We added the retimer IC SN75DP159 on each HDMI port.
We did it because on Application 1 the HDMI port can be connected to a videoprojector with unknown length and because on Application 3 the HDMI the length of HDMI cables are long (huge device).
The question now is: should we implement such retimer on DisplayPort interfaces ?
The length on Application is little bit bigger than on Application 1.
Thanks a lot.
