  • Page 4: Purpose And Scope

    DVI input signals supporting video resolution from 640 x 480 up to 2560 x 1600. The RD1-4028 also features digital audio inputs SPIDIF and I2S up to 8 Ch. This reference design meets the following: Stand-alone operation: Includes necessary firmware (either IROM or external SPI) to work independently;...

  • Page 5: Set Up Instructions

    509). STDP4028 register setting changes are required in order to receive audio on I2S input. This can be done through I2C host configuration or through firmware changes. The RD1-4028 supports video resolution from 640 x 480 up to 2560 x 1600 and audio up to 8 Ch. 2.1.1. I2C Host Port Host connector (CN901) allows configuration of the STDP4028 IC from an external host (microcontroller) through conventional I2C interface.

    Refer to the datasheet for more details. R510 3.2. Connector Descriptions The RD1-4028 has the following connectors. The locations of these connectors are shown in the board picture in Figure 3. CN301 – +12V DC 4A Power Input Jack CN902 – GProbe Interface (4x1 pin keyed header) connects to the UART port of the STDP4028. Use the Kinetic GProbe board and interface cable for connecting the board to an external PC that has GProbe software running.
  • Page 11 Reference Design Eval Kit STDP4028-RD1 CN901 – I2C Host Interface (header 17X2) connector for connecting external host. This is used only when an external host controller accesses the DisplayPort transmitter; not used for normal operation. In normal operation, internal MCU controls the overall functioning of the DisplayPort Transmitter (refer to the schematics for complete pin description for the Host Interface).
