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?
