Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of interface circuits, in particular to an interface circuit compatible with DP signals and HDMI signals. Background Art

[0002] In the computer field, the central processing unit (CPU) is one of the main devices of electronic computers and the core component of computers. Its main function is to interpret computer instructions and process data in computer software. All operations in the computer are performed by the CPU, which is the core component responsible for reading instructions, decoding instructions and executing instructions. Now CPU is widely used in many electronic devices, such as mobile terminals, industrial control terminals, PCs, etc.

[0003] DP signal, namely DisplayPort signal, is a high-definition digital display interface signal standard, which can connect computers and monitors, or computers and home theaters. In terms of performance, DisplayPort 1.1 supports a maximum transmission bandwidth of 10.8Gb / S, and the HDMI 1.3 standard can support a bandwidth of 10.2G / s; in addition, DisplayPort can support resolutions such as WQXGA+ (2560×1600), QXGA (2048×1536) and 30 / 36bit (10 / 12bit per primary color) color depth, and the color of 1920×1200 resolution supports 120 / 24Bit. The ultra-high bandwidth and resolution are fully sufficient to adapt to the development of display devices.

[0004] HDMI signal, namely High Definition Multimedia Interface signal (English: High Definition Multimedia Interface, HDMI) is a digital video / audio interface technology. It is a dedicated digital interface suitable for image transmission. It can transmit audio and image signals at the same time. The maximum data transmission speed is 2.25GB / s, and there is no need for digital / analog or analog / digital conversion before signal transmission. HDMI can be used with broadband digital content protection (HDCP) to prevent copyrighted audio and video content from being copied without authorization. The extra space provided by HDMI can be applied to audio and video formats that will be upgraded in the future. And because a 1080p video and an 8-channel audio signal require less than 0.5GB / s, HDMI still has a lot of margin. This allows it to use one cable to connect DVD players, receivers and PRRs respectively.

[0005] At present, the display signal of the display motherboard is usually a DP or HDMI signal sent by the central processing unit, which is received by the display motherboard of the display screen and finally displayed on the display screen. The display motherboard can usually only directly display one display signal. The most widely used display motherboards are HDMI signal display motherboards and DP signal display motherboards. Therefore, when using a display with a DP signal display motherboard, it is necessary to select the DP signal output interface of the central processing unit; when using a display with an HDMI signal display motherboard, it is necessary to switch to select the HDMI signal output interface of the central processing unit. Switching at the central processing unit is very troublesome, and two signal output interfaces, the DP signal output interface and the HDMI signal output interface, need to be set, which increases the production cost of the product and does not provide a good user experience.
