4.2. Functional Description

For the DisplayPort SST parallel loopback with AXI4-S video interface design example.

  • In this variant, the DisplayPort source and sink parameter, select AXIS-VVP FULL in Enable Active Video Data Protocols to enable AXI-Stream Video Data Interface.
  • The DisplayPort sink receives video and or audio streaming from external video source such as GPU and decodes it into parallel video interface.
  • The DisplayPort Sink converts video data stream into AXI4-Stream video data and drives the DisplayPort source AXI-Stream video data interface through video and vision Frame Buffer IP. The DisplayPort Source then converts AXI-Stream video data into DisplayPort main link before transmitting it to the monitor.
Note:
  • Because of restrictions of the Modular Kit board, the FPGA clock routes are not sufficient to support both the EMIF and SystemPLL transceiver modes simultaneously. This limitation does not apply to the Premium development kit.
  • When targeting the modular development kit, turning on System PLL in the design example GUI generates an error message. The design example does not support this combination, because of device routing limitations.
