Supply Voltage
All VCC pins can be tied to a single 3.3-V power source. A 0.01-µF capacitor is connected from each VCC pin
directly to ground to filter supply noise.
TMDS Inputs
Standard TMDS terminations are integrated on all TMDS inputs. External terminations are not required. Each
input channel contains an 8-dB equalization circuit to compensate for cable losses. The voltage at the TMDS
input pins must be limited per the absolute maximum ratings. An unused input should not be connected to
ground as this would result in excessive current flow damaging the device.
TMDS Input Fail-Safe
TMDS input pins do not incorporate fail-safe circuits. An unused input channel can be externally biased to
prevent output oscillation. One pin can be left open with the other grounded through a 1-kΩ resistor as shown in
Figure 31.

TMDS Outputs
A 1% precision resister, 4.64-kΩ, connected from VSADJ to ground is recommended to allow the differential
output swing to comply with TMDS signal levels. The differential output driver provides a typical 10-mA current
sink capability, which provides a typical 500-mV voltage drop across a 50-Ω termination resistor.

Figure 32. TMDS Driver and Termination Circuit
As shown in Figure 32, if VCC (TMDS341 supply) and AVCC (sink termination supply) are powered, the TMDS
output signals are high impedance when OE is high. Normal operation is with both supplies active.
Also shown in Figure 32, if VCC is on and AVCC is off, the TMDS outputs source a typical 5-mA current through
each termination resistor to ground. The terminations consume a total of 10 mW of power independent of the OE
logical selection. When AVCC is powered on, normal operation (OE controls output impedance) is resumed.
