1 Overview

1.1 What is the DP159?

The DP159 is a Dual-Mode DisplayPort to Transition Minimized Differential Signal (TMDS) retimer supporting Digital Video Interface (DVI) 1.0 and High Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) 1.4b and 2.0 output signals. The DP159 supports the Dual-Mode Standard version 1.1 type 1 and type 2 through the DDC link. The DP159 supports data rates up to 6 Gbps per data lane to support UltraHD (4K x 2K / 60 Hz) 8 bits per color high resolution video and HDTV with 16-bit color depth at 1080p (1920 x 1080 / 60 Hz). The DP159 can automatically configure itself as a redriver at data rates < 1.0 Gbps or as a retimer above this data rate.

1.2 What is the DP159RSBEVM?

The DP159RSBEVM is a PCB created to help customers evaluate the DP159 device for video applications. This EVM can also be used as a hardware reference design for implementation of the DP159 in the RSB package. PCB design/layout files can be provided upon request to provide PCB design illustrations of the routing/placement rules.

Please note that the EVM design supports both the standard DP159 application and a DP159-thru-HDMI application, so it contains many components that would not be needed by a typical DP159 application. A separate reference design specific to the DP159 is available for customers.

1.3 What is Included in the DP159RSBEVM?

The major components of the EVM are as follows:

• DP159RSB

• Standard DP sink connector (connects to source)

• Standard HDMI source connector (connects to sink)

• DC power regulators

• I2C programming interface for external I2C host connection

• USB interface (I2C utility available)

Hardware Description

2.1 Video Connectors for DP159 Ports

The EVM has a DP connection for the source and a HDMI connection for the sink. J2 is a standard DP connector (Molex 47272-0001). P2 is a standard HDMI connector (Molex 4715-10001). There is a third video connection on the board for a HDMI source (P1), this function is not installed on the DP159RSBEVM.

2.2 Enable/Reset

There are three device enable/reset options to use with the EVM: A. Supervisor circuitry option

This is the default configuration on the DP159RSBEVM. The enable (EN) signal is held low until the power good (PG) from the 3.3-V voltage regulator reaches a stable high-voltage level then released high.

B. RC timing option

C26 external capacitor and internal resistor are used to control the EN ramp time after the device is powered on. C26 is a Do Not Install (DNI option) by default. C26 needs to be installed and R77 needs to be uninstalled to enable this option.

C. External control option

A push button (SW1) is provided for manual control of the DP159’s EN/OE input.

2.3 Power

A DC power jack (J9) to accept a 5-V wall power adapter is provided on the EVM. The DC power jack (CUI Inc. PJ-202AH) has an inner diameter of 2.1 mm and an outer diameter of 5.5 mm. The tip of the +5V power supply must be positive. A +5-V power supply of at least 1.5 A that meets the given requirements can be used to power the DP159RSBEVM. Power is provided to the EVM from the 5-V wall power adapter when SW2 is set to position 1.

CAUTION

Care should be taken to not plug in any power source higher than the configured voltage (5 V).

Alternately, it is possible to power the EVM by connecting a USB Micro cable from J13 to a USB host and setting SW2 to position 3.

2.5 Component Population Configuration

To allow the DP159RSBEVM to support both the default DP input as well as a HDMI test input, there are many components that need to be removed, placed, or modified depending on the board configuration. Here’s a summary of the default component configuration for the DP159RSBEVM. In addition, the unused HDMI receptacle is depopulated.

2.5.1 HPD Snoop Option

To accommodate systems that do not properly resend DDC commands after HPD goes low, we have implemented a HPD snoop mode on the DP159RSBEVM. This mode allows the HPD line to be routed around the DP159, but remain connected to the DP159 on the sink side to allow the DP159 to snoop its state. This snoop mode is disabled by default on the DP159RSBEVMs.

2.5.2 DDC Snoop Option – not Available for DP159RSB REV B

To accommodate systems that do not properly support clock stretching on the DDC lines, we have implemented a snoop mode on the DP159RSBEVM. This mode allows the DDC lines to be routed around the DP159RSB, but remain connected to the DP159RSB on the sink side to allow the DP159RSB to snoop the DDC traffic. This snoop mode is disabled by default on the DP159RSB REV B1 EVMs.

• Pop R126, R136, R140, R141. No pop R31, R32 – DP159RSB, DDC snoop only

• Pop R31, R32. No pop R126, R136, R140, R141- DP159RSB, DDC on

2.6 Local I2C Access Through J5

Access to DP159’s local I2C signals is provided via the J5 input connector. Note that I2C signal levels should be at 3.3 V when I2C interface is accessed through the connector.

A standalone external I2C host can be connected via J5 for debug and control purposes. An example of an external I2C Host controller is the Total Phase Aardvark™ I2C/SPI Host Adapter (Total Phase Part#:

TP240141). Sample scripts for this I2C Host controller are provided by request.

2.7 Local I2C Access Through USB Interface via TUSB3410

Access to DP159’s local I2C signals is also provided through the TUSB3410 on the DP159RSBEVM using a USB TI Utility called Eye Scan. To use the utility:

• Install the Eye Scan software from Texas Instruments

• J6 must be set to SDA – SDA_USB

• J4 must be set to SCL – SCL_USB

• Attach USB micro cable to J13 and to the host computer

NOTE: The USB connection should be made prior to installing any DP or HDMI cables.

• Start the Eye Scan software

Figure 3 shows the Register Status / Control tab.

Hardware Description

Confirm that the SN65DP149/159/TMDS171/181 Interface is present and selected at the top. If it is not, check the USB connection and confirm that the driver is loaded in Device Manager. It may take a moment for the USB driver to load, if the DP159RSB does not appear, hit the Refresh button. This tab can be used to read and write the status and control registers of the device.
