The CH7512A is designed to meet the DisplayPort Specification 1.2 and Embedded DisplayPort (eDP) Specification version 1.4. In the device’s receiver block, which supports two DisplayPort Main Link Lanes input with data rate running at either 1.62Gb/s, 2.7Gb/s, 3.24Gb/s or 5.4Gb/s, can accept RGB digital formats in either 18-bit 6:6:6 or 24-bit 8:8:8 for LVDS output up to 1920x1080@60Hz(1) or 1920x1080@144Hz(2). To comply with GPU’s new power saving scheme such as display frame rate reduction, the CH7512A is equipped with the Dynamic Refresh Rate switching method, which can automatically reduce to the low refresh rate supported by the LVDS panel.
The integrated LVDS transmitter supports the single port and the dual ports LVDS outputs. CH7512A supports panel select by GPIO[5, 3:0] pins control. To reduce EMI emission, the CH7512A’s LVDS encoder block has incorporated Spread Spectrum control and its spread percentage can be adjusted through the internal registers.
The Backlight On/Off and the PWM are two luminance control functions designed in the CH7512A LVDS power control module. The brightness control commands sent through AUX Channel can be dynamically translated by CH7512A and converted into LCD backlight control signal. The CH7512A will save the last setting of brightness level into the BOOT ROM and restore it upon power up. The CH7512A can dynamically adjust backlight brightness according to video stream to save power consumption and it supports OSD display in this way.
The CH7512A will immediately convert the DisplayPort signal to LVDS output after DisplayPort Link Training is completed. This feature can be achieved by loading the panel’s EDID and the CH7512A’s configuration settings in the serial BOOT ROM connected to the CH7512A. During system power-up and upon completion of the DisplayPort Link Training through AUX Channel, CH7512A will generate LVDS signal according to the panel power-up timing sequencing stored in the BOOT ROM.
