3.4. DisplayPort SST Parallel Loopback without PCR with Dual-Simplex Mode

Use Dual-Simplex mode when the RX and TX transceivers do not both support DisplayPort protocols or are offset with other protocols. In these cases, merge the RX and TX transceiver instances using Dual Simplex tools.
To generate a Dual Simplex design example, go to the Design Example IP tab, expand PHY Structure, and select Transceiver Construction option, as shown below. This option is hidden for Receiver or Transmitter only design examples as the Dual Simplex tool does not apply to these configurations.
Figure 14. Dual Simplex Mode

All RX/TX design examples enable users to explore both Duplex and Dual Simplex flows.

The following figure shows a PHY configured in Dual Simplex mode. In this configuration, two Simplex PHYs (one RX and one TX) are generated. These are then merged using the Dual Simplex tool to create a single, integrated PHY, as displayed below:
