Hello everyone, today let's learn about the display signal output by the CPU

2

00:00:05,833 --> 00:00:15,533

In Intel chipsets, eDP, DP and DDI display signals have been gradually adopted since the 4th generation CPU

3

00:00:16,066 --> 00:00:20,466

The signal output by the CPU to the internal screen display

4

00:00:21,300 --> 00:00:25,500

That is, the notebook screen, using the eDP display signal

5

00:00:26,100 --> 00:00:29,433

eDP is also called Embedded Display Port

6

00:00:31,166 --> 00:00:40,933

We can see from the circuit diagram of this eDP screen interface that it uses two sets of data lines and one set of AUX channels

7

00:00:42,833 --> 00:00:52,566

These two sets of data plus the AUX channel are communicated through the coupling capacitor, and the display signal is sent to the screen interface

8

00:00:53,966 --> 00:00:56,066

There is also a HPD (Screen Insertion Detect) signal

9

00:00:56,633 --> 00:01:00,833

The AUX channel here represents the auxiliary channel

10

00:01:01,200 --> 00:01:04,433

For transferring data with low bandwidth requirements

11

00:01:04,666 --> 00:01:07,233

and circuit management and device control

12

00:01:07,533 --> 00:01:12,200

For example: replace EDID to read screen information, etc.

13

00:01:12,300 --> 00:01:14,333

There is also a DDI channel

14

00:01:14,666 --> 00:01:21,533

This DDI display signal is actually the display interface inside the x86 CPU

15

00:01:21,900 --> 00:01:24,166

It has circuit switching on the outside

16

00:01:24,633 --> 00:01:34,433

Finally, this DDI display signal will be synthesized into the display signals of the HDMI and DP interfaces that we will use

17

00:01:34,933 --> 00:01:38,466

TMDS_DATA0-/+, this is group 0

18

00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:42,366

TMDS_DATA1-/+, here is group 1

19

00:01:42,900 --> 00:01:46,066

TMDS_DATA2-/+, this is group 2

20

00:01:46,133 --> 00:01:50,200

These three pairs of data lines are the HDMI bus

21

00:01:50,633 --> 00:01:54,466

Plus a pair of TMDS_CLOCK-/+ clock signals

22

00:01:54,633 --> 00:01:58,066

It can transmit video data and audio data

23

00:01:58,766 --> 00:02:02,000

Let's take a look at the mini DP interface next to it

24

00:02:02,266 --> 00:02:05,966

This is also output from the DDI display signal conversion

25

00:02:06,066 --> 00:02:09,566

Mini DP interface has four groups of data lines

26

00:02:09,933 --> 00:02:11,166

This is group 0

27

00:02:11,766 --> 00:02:13,000

This is group 1

28

00:02:14,166 --> 00:02:15,466

This is group 2

29

00:02:17,800 --> 00:02:18,800

This is group 3

30

00:02:18,800 --> 00:02:24,066

There are a total of 4 sets of data lines plus a pair of AUX channels

31

00:02:24,400 --> 00:02:27,200

Mainly used to connect an external monitor

32

00:02:27,633 --> 00:02:33,233

And the DP interface supports carrying audio, USB and other forms of data

33

00:02:33,600 --> 00:02:41,700

This interface is designed to replace traditional VGA, DVI and LVDS interfaces, etc.
