Overview
1.1
What is the DP159?
The DP159 is a Dual-Mode DisplayPort to Transition Minimized Differential Signal (TMDS) retimer
supporting Digital Video Interface (DVI) 1.0 and High Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) 1.4b and 2.0
output signals. The DP159 supports the Dual-Mode Standard version 1.1 type 1 and type 2 through the
DDC link. The DP159 supports data rates up to 6 Gbps per data lane to support UltraHD (4K x 2K / 60
Hz) 8 bits per color high resolution video and HDTV with 16-bit color depth at 1080p (1920 x 1080 / 60
Hz). The DP159 can automatically configure itself as a redriver at data rates < 1.0 Gbps or as a retimer
above this data rate.
1.2
What is the DP159RSBEVM?
The DP159RSBEVM is a PCB created to help customers evaluate the DP159 device for video
applications. This EVM can also be used as a hardware reference design for implementation of the DP159
in the RSB package. PCB design/layout files can be provided upon request to provide PCB design
illustrations of the routing/placement rules.
Please note that the EVM design supports both the standard DP159 application and a DP159-thru-HDMI
application, so it contains many components that would not be needed by a typical DP159 application. A
separate reference design specific to the DP159 is available for customers.
