Black Box Explains
DisplayPort
TM
is a new digital interface
standard whose primary use is to connect a
computer with a display. It consists of uni-
directional Main Link for transporting A/V
streams, a half-duplex bi-directional AUX CH
for plug-and-play, and Hot Plug Detect (HPD).
It is expected to replace DVI and eventually
analogue VGA.
Although much smaller than a DVI
connector, the initial revision of DisplayPort
TM
v1.1a doubles the capability of a single
channel DVI and can deliver up to 10.8Gbps of
data.
Around the same size as a USB connector,
DisplayPort
TM
uses the same number of
connections as a single channel DVI connector,
but firmly locks into position. A quick release
button is positioned on the top of the
connector allowing easy removal of the cable
when required.
DisplayPort
TM
replaces the connections
between the PC and any associated monitor,
but it also does more than that. It can be used
to replace the low voltage differential
signalling (LVDS) that is common inside
laptops, displays and TV’s. This eases and
simplifies the design of such devices.
All types of displays are supported by
DisplayPort
TM
including legacy CRT monitors,
TFT LCD panels, Plasma and LCD displays and
by using DisplayPort
TM
adaptors, connection is
possible directly to DVI, VGA and HDMI.
Physical
Physically the compact DisplayPort
TM
connector is fairly similar to HDMI in both size
and appearance. It only has one angled
corner as opposed to HDMI’s two. It contains
20 pins for external connectors and 32 pins
for internal connections.
Performance
DisplayPort
TM
cables can be used up to a
maximum of 15m (supporting video up to
1080p at 24bpp, 50/60 Hz). At 3m, cables will
support a maximum of 10.8 Gbit/s data rate,
video resolutions of 2560 x 1600 and
8-channel uncompressed audio.
