DESCRIPTION

· The STHDLS101A is a high-speed HDMI level shifter that converts low-swing AC coupled differential input to HDMI 1.3 compliant open-drain current steering RX-terminated differential output.

· It supports up to 2.7 Gbps, sufficient for 12-bits of color depth per channel as per HDMI rev 1.3.

· Operates from a single 3.3 V supply and is available in a 48-pin QFN package.

FEATURES

· Converts low-swing AC coupled differential input to HDMI rev 1.3 compliant.

· HDMI level shifting operation up to 2.7 Gbps per lane.

· Integrated 50 Ω termination resistors for AC-coupled differential inputs.

· Output slew rate control on TMDS outputs to minimize EMI.

· Fail safe outputs for backdrive protection.

· Inter-pair output skew < 250 ps, intra-pair output skew < 10 ps.

· ESD protection: ±6 KV HBM on all I/O pins.

· Integrated display data channel (DDC) level shifters.

· Level shifter and configurable output for HPD signal from HDMI/DVI connector.

· Integrated pull-down resistor on HPD_SINK and OE_N inputs.

APPLICATIONS

· Notebooks, PC motherboards, and graphic cards.
