7.7 Characteristics of the I
2
C-bus
The I
2
C-bus is for 2-way, 2-line communication between different ICs or modules. The two
lines are a serial data line (SDA) and a serial clock line (SCL). Both lines must be
connected to a positive supply via a pull-up resistor when connected to the output stages
of a device. Data transfer may be initiated only when the bus is not busy.
7.7.1 Bit transfer
One data bit is transferred during each clock phase. The data on the SDA line must
remain stable during the HIGH period of the clock pulse as changes in the data line at this
time will be interpreted as control signals (see Figure 5).
7.7.2 START and STOP conditions
Both data and clock lines remain HIGH when the bus is not busy. A HIGH-to-LOW
transition of the data line, while the clock is HIGH is defined as the START condition (S). A
LOW-to-HIGH transition of the data line while the clock is HIGH is defined as the STOP
condition (P). See Figure 6.
7.7.3 System configuration
An I
2
C-bus device generating a message is a ‘transmitter’, a device receiving is the
‘receiver’. The device that controls the message is the ‘master’ and the devices which are
controlled by the master are the ‘slaves’. See Figure 7.

7.7.4 Acknowledge
The number of data bytes transferred between the START and the STOP conditions from
transmitter to receiver is not limited. Each byte of eight bits is followed by one
acknowledge bit. The acknowledge bit is a HIGH level put on the bus by the transmitter,
whereas the master generates an extra acknowledge related clock pulse.
A slave receiver which is addressed must generate an acknowledge after the reception of
each byte. Also, a master must generate an acknowledge after the reception of each byte
that has been clocked out of the slave transmitter. The device that acknowledges has to
pull down the SDA line during the acknowledge clock pulse so that the SDA line is stable
LOW during the HIGH period of the acknowledge related clock pulse, set-up and hold
times must be taken into account.
A master receiver must signal an end of data to the transmitter by not generating as
acknowledge on the last byte that has been clocked out of the slave. In this event, the
transmitter must leave the data line HIGH to enable the master to generate a STOP
condition.

8. Application design-in information
8.1 Dongle or cable adaptor detect discovery mechanism
The PTN3361B supports the source-side dongle detect discovery mechanism described
in
VESA DisplayPort Interoperability Guideline Version 1.1
.
When a source-side cable adaptor is plugged into a multi-mode source device that
supports multiple standards such as DisplayPort, DVI and HDMI, a discovery mechanism
is needed for the multi-mode source to configure itself for outputting DisplayPort, DVI or
HDMI compliant signals through the dongle or cable adaptor. The discovery mechanism
ensures that a multi-mode source device only sends either DVI or HDMI signals when a
valid DVI or HDMI cable adaptor is present.
The V
ESA Interoperability Guideline
recommends that a multi-mode source to power up
with both DDC and AUX CH disabled. After initialization, the source device can use a
variety of mechanisms to decide whether a dongle or cable adaptor is present by
detecting pin 13 on the DisplayPort connector. Depending on the voltage level detected at
pin 13, the source configures itself either:
as a DVI or HDMI source (see below paragraph for detection between DVI and HDMI),
and enables DDC, while keeping AUX CH disabled, or
as a DisplayPort source and enables AUX CH, while keeping DDC disabled.
The monitoring of the voltage level on pin 13 by a multi-mode source device is optional. A
multi-mode source may also e.g. attempt an AUX CH read transaction and, if the
transaction fails, a DDC transaction to discover the presence/absence of a cable adaptor.
Furthermore, a source that supports both DVI and HDMI can discover whether a DVI or
HDMI dongle or cable adaptor is present by using a variety of discovery procedures. One
possible method is to check the voltage level of pin 14 of the DisplayPort connector.
Pin 14 also carries CEC signal used for HDMI. Please note that other HDMI devices on
the CEC line may be momentarily pulling down pin 14 as a part of CEC protocol.
The
VESA Interoperability Guideline
recommends that a multi-mode source should
distinguish a source-side HDMI cable adaptor from a DVI cable adaptor by checking the
DDC buffer ID as described in Section 7.6 “I
2
C-bus based HDMI dongle detection”. While
it is optional for a multi-mode source to use the I
2
C-bus based HDMI dongle detection
mechanism, it is mandatory for HDMI dongle or cable adaptor to respond to the I
2
C-bus
read command described in Section 7.7. The PTN3361B provides an integrated I
2
C-bus
slave ROM to support this mandatory HDMI dongle detect mechanism for HDMI dongles.
For a DisplayPort-to-HDMI source-side dongle or cable adaptor, DDET must be tied HIGH
to enable the I
2
C-bus based HDMI dongle detection response function of PTN3361B. For
a DisplayPort-to-DVI sink-side dongle or cable adaptor, DDET must be tied LOW to
disable the function.
