2.5.1. HDMI TX Components
The HDMI TX top components include the TX core top-level components, IOPLL, TX PMA Direct PHY, DCFIFO, 40bits to 64bits converter, and the output buffer blocks.
Figure 8. HDMI TX Top Components
Module | Description |
---|---|
HDMI TX Core | The IP receives video data from the top level and performs auxiliary data encoding, audio data encoding, video data encoding, scrambling, TMDS encoding or packetization. |
IOPLL (pll_frl_tx) | The IOPLL (iopll_frl) generates the FRL clock for the TX core. This reference clock receives the TX FPLL output clock. FRL clock frequency = Data rate per lanes x 4 / (FRL characters per clock x 18) |
TX PMA Direct PHY | Hard transceiver block that receives the parallel data from the HDMI TX core and serializes the data from transmitting it. |
Output buffer | This buffer acts as an interface to interact the I2C interface of the HDMI DDC and redriver components. |
40b to 64b Converter | Convert 40bits input to the 64bits output. |
DCFIFO | Synchronize data and signals across the System clock and TX clock domains. |
