The DisplayPort interface has an auxiliary (AUX) channel for bi-directional communication between the DisplayPort source and DisplayPort sink. The AUX channel is used for DP link training to optimize channel configuration. This application note is an introduction to monitor the DisplayPort AUX channel while link training. This assists in understanding the link training sequence and behavior between DisplayPort sink and source by extracting the discrete AUX transactions.
