TDP0604: HDMI/DVI to DP conversion

Part Number: TDP0604

Tool/software:

I want to convert DVI input to DP output on my board. I searched but could not found a way to do that unless I use IC's with MCU. At first, I thought HDMI has 3 data pairs + 1 clock pair and DP has 4 data pairs, so I can use a hdmi redriver-like product to create this conversion but I was mistaken, input signal is TMDS and output should be main link. Therefore, I cannot just make that connection.  Is there a way to convert DVI/HDMI to DP without software programming needed?

Also, I will use DP signal to convert it to eDP afterwards (I need both DP and eDP). Based on my research, I believe DP to eDP conversion is possible with passive circuit elements, maybe use of level shifter is needed, do I need active IC etc for that conversion?

  • Hi,

    Unfortunately we do not have a solution in our product portfolio that can covert from HDMI to DP as you would need to covert both HDMI electrical signal (TMDS) and protocol to DP electrical signal and protocol.

    The DP and eDP use the same electrical signal for the main link, you do not need an IC to convert from DP to eDP.

    Thanks
