Hdmi Signal Path - Panasonic TC-26LX20 Technical Manual

HDMI Signal Path

The HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) resides on the DV board as depicted in
Figure 29 and serves as an input port designed to receive digital video and audio from a
set-top box, a DVD player or other digital devices. IC5003 converts the digital video to
parallel analog RGB video. The outgoing audio is converted to analog via IC5006 and
IC5007. EEPROM IC5001 serves as the content protection circuit and monitors the
HDMI signal for copyright protection. IC5005 selects between HDMI and DVI audio.
Note: If the external device has DVI output only, use a DVI to HDMI adaptor cable in
order to connect to the HDMI jack to the DV HDMI connector. Also, connect the Audio
Out signal from the external device (set top box or DVD player) to the Audio In jacks. An
HDMI to DVI conversion cable (TY-SCH03DH) is available at the Panasonic parts
department.
