2.3.2 SDVO
2.3.2.1 Signal Definitions
Type 6 Modules allow one SDVO port on DDI[1]. The DDI port needs to be configured to be used
as SDVO usually via the Module's BIOS.
On Type 2 Modules the pins for SDVO ports B and C are shared with the PEG port.

2.3.2.3 Routing Considerations
DVI is based on the differential signaling method TDMS. The TDMS differential signals between
the SDVO to DVI transmitter and the DVI connector have to be routed in pairs with a differential
impedance of 100Ω. The length of the differential signals must be kept close. The length difference
must within 100mils for any of the pairs relative to each other. Spacing between the differential pair
traces should be over 2x the trace width to reduce trace-to-trace couplings. Having wider gaps
between differential pair DVI traces will reduce noise coupling. Ground should not be placed
adjacent to the DVI traces on the same layer. Keep a distance of at least 30mils between the DVI
trace and any ground on the same layer.
