DESCRIPTION
The TMDS141 HDMI hider is designed to accommodate a 1-m HDMI cable between a HDMI connector and a
receiver. The internal cable causes signal distortion to high-speed TMDS signals, as well as increasing
capacitance to the DDC channel. Each TMDS141 contains four TMDS repeaters to transmit digital content with
signaling rates of up to 2.25-Gbps, and an I2C repeater to link extended display identification data (EDID)
reading and high-bandwidth digital content protection (HDCP) key exchange under I2C standard mode
operations.
The device includes four TMDS compliant differential receivers with 50-Ω termination resistors and 3.3-V
termination voltage integrated at each receiver input pin. External terminations are not required. A built-in
frequency response equalization circuit, 8 dB at 825 MHz, compensates inter-symbol interference (ISI) losses
from a 5-m or longer input cable link.
The device also includes four TMDS compliant differential drivers. A precision resistor is connected externally
from the VSADJ pin to ground for setting the differential output voltage to be compliant with the TMDS standard.
A selectable de-emphasis circuit is available via the PRE input to drive long PCB traces or cables. When PRE is
high, the 3.5-dB high frequency gain offsets the losses due to the FR4 trace. PRE can be left open or kept low
when the de-emphasis function is not desired.
