TX Pre-Emphasis and De-Emphasis Control

The TMDS1204 provides pre-emphasis and de-emphasis on the data lanes allowing the output signal pre-conditioning to offset interconnect losses between the TMDS1204 outputs and a TMDS receiver. Pre-emphasis and de-emphasis is not implemented on the clock lane unless the TMDS1204 is in HDMI 2.1 FRL mode and at which time the clock lane becomes a data lane. There are two methods to implement pre-emphasis, pin strapping or through I2C programming. TX pre-emphasis and de-emphasis control is only supported in limited mode.

When using pin strap mode, the TXPRE pin controls four different global pre-emphasis and de-emphasis values for all data lanes when TMDS1204 is operating in HDMI 1.4 or HDMI 2.0. Table 7-15 lists these pre-emphasis and de-emphasis values. In HDMI 2.1 FRL mode, the de-emphasis value used is based on the DDC TXFFE snooped value. Table 7-16 lists how the TMDS1204 uses the de-emphasis level for each TX FFE level.
