In order to activate the DDC block, the VDD_5V has to reach the specified VDD_5V_ON
threshold (see Table 4). In addition, the inputs and outputs of the bidirectional level shifters
(SCL, SDA, SCL_IC, SDA_IC) must be set to a high level after the power-on, and the HPD
line has to be activated one time.
The DDC outputs (SCL and SDA on cable side) integrate a protection against ESD which is
compliant with IEC61000-4-2 standard, level 4 (8 kV contact).
