DVI/HDMI TMDS FR-4 and
Cable Equalizer/Driver
General Description
The MAX3814 TMDS^® EQ/driver IC compensates for
FR-4 and cable losses up to the DVI/HDMI transmit con-
nector and provides a fully compliant DVI/HDMI TMDS
output. The device can also be used in DVI/HDMI cable
applications to extend reach and improve jitter margin of
cable channels at the receive-side connector.
The on-chip TMDS drivers operate at a standard cur-
rent level for implementing a typical DVI/HDMI non-
back-terminated transmitter, as well as a 50% higher
current mode for using a 200Ω back termination resis-
tor (nonmatching) to achieve a 10dB return loss.
Typical DVI/HDMI output drivers contribute to reflection
problems between the connector and a typical high-
impedance (open) DVI/HDMI Tx output. The selectable
output current (LEVEL pin) gives the option of partial
back termination (e.g., differentially connected 200Ω) to
mitigate the reflection problem effectively while keeping
common-mode offset to a minimum.
The 4-channel implementation treats all channels identi-
cally. To allow board layout flexibility for DVI and HDMI
connectors, which have different channel order, the
clock and data channels can be arbitrarily assigned.
The MAX3814 operates from a 3.3V power supply,
standard for DVI/HDMI applications, and is packaged
in a 5mm x 5mm x 0.1mm, 32-pin TQFP package.
