5 Summary

The TDP0604 is a hybrid redriver supporting both source and sink applications. A hybrid redriver can operate either in a linear or limited redriver function. The device also has rich and flexible adjust capabilities that can be fine-tuned for each high speed LANE and different data rate (HDMI1.4 or 2.0), including EQ and rising and falling slew rate and VL and VSwing, and so on.

This article uses actual adjustments to show what results and impacts are produced by different parameter adjustments during testing, to helps readers understand what parameters can or must be adjusted when encountering test failures to pass the certification test.
