Selects the function of DDI0_CTRL and DDI0_CTRLDATA_AUX-.

This pin shall have a 1M pull-down to

logic ground on the Module. If this input is floating the AUX pair is

used for the DP AUX+/- signals. If pulled-high the AUX pair

contains the CRTLCLK and CTRLDATA signals

************************************************************

DDI[n]_DDC_AUX_SEL shall be pulled to 3.3V on the Carrier with a 100K Ohm

resistor to configure the DDI[n]_AUX pair as the DDC channel.

Carrier DDI[n]_DDC_AUX_SEL should be connected to pin 13 of the DisplayPort
