Both inputs and outputs are standard TMDS signaling as per DVI and HDMI standards. Because TMDS links are “point-to-point,” buffering is required for fanout applications. Four DVI/HDMI TMDS outputs are provided for fanout distribution. Each TMDS output can be independently sourced from either input or can be turned off. Each TMDS input or output is composed of four differential channels that can be arbitrarily assigned to the three data signals and the 1/10th-rate clock. The data rate depends on resolution, but it can vary from 250Mbps (VGA) to 1.
