PTN3460
eDP to LVDS bridge IC
8. Functional description
PTN3460 is an (Embedded) DisplayPort to LVDS bridge IC that processes the incoming
DisplayPort (DP) stream, performs DP to LVDS protocol conversion and transmits
processed stream in LVDS format. Refer to Figure 2 “
Block diagram of PTN3460.
The PTN3460 consists of:
DisplayPort receiver
LVDS transmitter
System control and operation
The following sections describe individual sub-systems and their capabilities in more
detail.
8.1 DisplayPort receiver
PTN3460 implements a DisplayPort receiver consisting of 2-lane Main Link and AUX
channel.
With its advanced signal processing capability, it can handle Fast Link training or Full Link
training scheme. PTN3460 implements a high-performance Auto Receive Equalizer and
Clock Data Recovery (CDR) algorithm, with which it identifies and selects an optimal
operational setting for given channel environment. Given that the device is targeted
primarily for embedded Display connectivity, both Display Authentication and Copy
Protection Method 3a (Alternate Scrambler Seed Reset) and Method 3b (Enhanced
Framing) are supported, as per eDP 1.2.

PTN3460
eDP to LVDS bridge IC
The PTN3460 DPCD registers can be accessed by DP source through AUX channel. It
supports both Native AUX transactions and I
2
C-over-AUX transactions.
Native AUX transactions are used to access PTN3460 DisplayPort Configuration Data
(DPCD) registers (e.g., to facilitate Link training, check error conditions, etc.) and
I
2
C-over-AUX transactions are used to perform any required access to DDC bus
(e.g., EDID reads).
Given that the HPDRX pin is internally connected to GND through an integrated pull-down
resistor (> 100 k), the DP source will see HPDRX pin as LOW indicating that the
DisplayPort receiver is not ready when the device is not powered. This helps avoid raising
false events to the source. After power-up, PTN3460 continues to drive HPDRX pin LOW
until completion of internal initialization. After this, PTN3460 generates HPD signal to
notify DP source and take corrective action(s).
8.1.1 DP Link
PTN3460 is capable of operating either in DP 2-lane or 1-lane mode. The default is 2-lane
mode of operation (in alignment with PTN3460 DCPD register 00002h,
MAX_LANE_COUNT = 2).
There are two ways to enable 1-lane operation in an application:
Connect both DP lanes of PTN3460 to the DP source. This enables the DP source to
decide/use only required number of lanes based on display resolution.
Connect only 1 lane (DP0_P, DP0_N) to DP source and modify the DPCD register
00002h, MAX_LANE_COUNT to ‘1’ through NXP I
2
C configuration utility to modify the
internal configuration table. Please consult NXP for more details regarding the
Flash-over-AUX and DOS utilities.
8.1.2 DPCD registers
DPCD registers are described in VESA DisplayPort v1.1a/1.2 specifications in detail and
PTN3460 supports DPCD version 1.2.
PTN3460 configuration registers can be accessed through DP AUX channel from the
GPU/CPU, if required. They are defined under vendor-specific region starting at base
address 0x00510h. So any configuration register can be accessed at DPCD address
obtained by adding the register offset and base address.
PTN3460 supports down spreading on DP link and this is reflected in DPCD register
MAX_DOWNSPREAD at address 0003h. Further, the DP source could control
down spreading and inform PTN3460 via DOWNSPREAD_CTRL register at DPCD
register 00107h.
The key aspect is that the system designer must take care that the Input video payload fits
well within both DP link bandwidth and LVDS bandwidth (for a given pixel frequency,
SSC depths) when clock spreading is enabled. Also, another aspect for the system
designer is to ensure LVDS (panel) TCONs are capable of handling SSC modulated LVDS
signaling.
