2.7. Hardware Setup
The DisplayPort Intel® FPGA IP design example is 4Kp60 capable and performs a loop-through for a standard DisplayPort video stream.
- To run the hardware test, connect a DisplayPort-enabled source device to the DisplayPort FMC daughter card sink input.
- The DisplayPort sink decodes the port into a standard video stream and sends it to the clock recovery core.
- The clock recovery core synthesizes the original video pixel clock to be transmitted together with the received video data.
Note: You require the clock recovery feature to produce video without using a frame buffer.
- The clock recovery core then sends the video data to the DisplayPort source and the Transceiver Native PHY TX block.
- Connect the DisplayPort FMC daughter card source port to a monitor to display the image.
LEDs | Function |
---|---|
USER_LED[0] | This LED indicates that the source is successfully lane-trained. At this point, the IP core asserts rx0_vid_locked. |
USER_LED[1] | This LED indicates that the source Transceiver PLL is locked at the link training data rate. |
USER_LED[3:2] | These LEDs indicate the RX link rate.
