Since SM-B79 is a carrier board specifically designed for development purposes, onboard
there is a 4-way jumper to select normal working of HDMI/DP1++ interface or to fix this
To select standard mode working, the jumper must be set in 3-4 position.
3.3.6
DP0++ connector
According to SMARC
®
Rel. 2.1.1 specification, also the third display interface from card edge
connector can be used to implement multi-purpose Digital Display Interfaces. As stated in the
specification, the third display interface can support multimode display port, that can be either used as
DP++ interface or HDMI over DP++ through external dongle. The difference with second display
interface is that this one cannot support native HDMI, and this is the reason why there is not an high
speed multiplexer to redirect signals from card edge connector as per second display interface
(par.3.3.5)
Please notice that the effective support of this kind of displays depends only by the SMARC
®
module
used with the SM-B79 carrier board, it is not a feature dependent from the carrier board itself.
The pin-out of this card edge connector is given according to SMARC
®
Rel. 2.1.1 specifications, so
that the carrier board is ready for the use of any SMARC
®
module that follows those specifications.
Please refer to the SMARC
®
the availability of the HDMI / DP++ signals.
The multimode Display Port interface (DP0++) from card edge connector
is made available on connector CN74, type WINNING p/n WDPE-
20F3L1BU3 or equivalent, with the pinout shown in the left table.
