3.6.7. Set TX Video Clock
Perform this step only if you are running the design with video frame buffer at the actual video clock. In this use case, a programmable oscillator supplies the video clock for HDMI TX with a frequency based on the following formula:
TX video clock = (actual pixel rate / pixels in parallel) * colour depth ratio
Color Depth (Bit per Component) |
Color Depth Ratio |
---|---|
8 | 1.00 |
10 | 1.25 |
12 | 1.50 |
16 | 2.00 |
Note that the design is running at 8 pixels in parallel.
The design example uses the TX video clock with the following resolution, color depth, and video clock frequency configurations. Expand this list according to your application.
Resolution | Color Depth (bit per component) |
Pixel Rate (MHz) |
TX Video Clock (MHz) |
