DS90UB940-Q1: De-skew/lane alignment

Part Number: DS90UB940-Q1

Hi Team,

My customer asked that there is one description on DS90UB940-Q1 Datasheet first page as below. The device should be able to de-skew/lane alignment. Could you please help explaine more about it? And is there any limitation of the mismatch that we support? Thanks.

"The device automatically senses the FPD-Link III channels and supplies a clock alignment and de-skew functionality without the need for any special training patterns. This ensures skew phase tolerance from mismatches in interconnect wires such as PCB trace routing, cable pair-to-pair length differences, and connector imbalances."

BR,

Rory

  • De-skew / lane alignment is widely used for data transmission synchronization in multi-lanes system. since 940 has two input data channels, if there is skew between them, 940 internally can de-skew and make them alignment. It can correct 1 pixel clock sekw betwene the two lanes.

    generally since the two lanes share the similar cable length, the two lanes' skew is very small. what is your concern here?

    regards,
