7.2.1 DP 2.1 and HDMI 2.1 Mainlink Signal Conditioning

There are many applications for the TDP20MB421, including use in a PC motherboard, docking station, or monitor, to boost the DisplayPort or AC coupled HDMI 2.1 source mainlink signals, increasing the reach of the source and sink channel. The following sections outline the detailed procedures and design requirements for a typical DP 2.1 or a AC coupled HDMI 2.1 source application. However, the design recommendations can be used in other use cases.
