Introduction

The PCLK range supported by FPD-Link DS90UB926Q-Q1 and DS90UB927Q-Q1 is 5MHz ≤ PCLK < 15MHz (LFMODE = 1) and 15MHz ≤ PCLK ≤ 85MHz (LFMODE = 0). This corresponds to application payload rates from 155Mbps to 2.635Gbps, and actual forward line rates from 525Mbps to 2.975Gbps. The forward link adopts NRZ encoding, and the Nyquist frequency is half of the line rate, which is 262.5MHz to 1.4875GHz.

For animated displays such as automotive headlights and ground projections, SoC data can be serialized and deserialized and successfully transmitted via DS90UB926Q-Q1 and DS90UB927Q-Q1 devices.

PCLK Range DS90UB927Q-Q1 DS90UB926Q-Q1 Design Conclusion
5MHz ≤ PCLK < 15MHz LFMODE = 1 LFMODE = High Must use Low-Frequency Mode
15MHz ≤ PCLK ≤ 85MHz LFMODE = 0 LFMODE = Low Use default high-frequency configuration
