High performance DisplayPort switch with high
common-mode voltage support
Rev. 1 — 2 May 2012
Product brief
1. General description
The CBTL06GP212 is a six-channel (‘hex’) multiplexer for DisplayPort and PCI Express
applications at Generation 2 (‘Gen2’) speeds. It provides four differential channels
capable of 1 : 2 switching or 2 : 1 multiplexing (bidirectional and AC-coupled) PCI Express
or DisplayPort signals, using high-bandwidth pass-gate technology. It provides support for
high common-mode/bias voltage on the high speed differential channels. Additionally, it
provides for switching/multiplexing of the Hot Plug Detect signal as well as the AUX or
DDC (Direct Display Control) signals, for a total of six channels on the display side. The
AUX and DDC channels provide a four-position multiplexer such that an additional level of
multiplexing can be accomplished when AUX and DDC I/Os are on separate pins of the
display source device.
The CBTL06GP212 is designed for Gen2 speeds, at 5.0 Gbit/s for PCI Express or
5.4 Gbit/s for DisplayPort. It consumes 2 mA current (typical) in operational mode and
provides a shutdown function to support battery-powered applications.
A typical application of CBTL06GP212 is on motherboards where one of two GPU display
sources needs to be selected to connect to a display sink device or connector. A controller
chip selects which path to use by setting a select signal HIGH or LOW. Due to the
non-directional nature of the signal paths (which use high-bandwidth pass gate
technology), the CBTL06GP212 can also be used in the reverse topology, e.g., to connect
one display source device to one of two display sink devices or connectors.
