PTN3460 eDP to LVDS bridge IC application board
1. Introduction
This user manual describes the PTN3460 application board with 1080p LCD panel made
by AUO (part number M215HW03 V1), including:
•
Overall PCB connectors, jumpers, and power supplies
•
Equipment/tools that this board interfaces with during bench testing
•
System-level connections, such as cables and connectors, into which this board will
be plugged
This application board is intended to demonstrate the bridging capabilities of PTN3460 on
DP to LVDS conversion. It is also used to evaluate competitor’s ICs such as Parade’s
PS8615, which is pin-to-pin compatible with PTN3460.
A separate document,
“Application test plan”
will be provided to list items to be verified at
the system level.
1.1 Purpose
•
For internal engineers to evaluate the performance of PTN3460 and to develop
firmware, including collecting and verifying system-level features, performance, and
functionality, such as:
–
Verify power management schemes
–
Power sequence
–
Power consumption measurement during various operating modes
–
Allow access to test points and jumpers for measurement and configuration
purposes
–
Flash over AUX
–
Programming test via I
2
C-bus
•
For marketing to demonstrate DP-LVDS to customers in the field
–
Functional and interoperability test
–
This board should be connected to a DP or an eDP source
–
This board is powered by ATX 20-pin power supply, or
–
External power supplies with +3.3 V (1 A), +5 V (1 A), +12 V (2 A)
–
This board is connected directly to AUO 21-inch LVDS panel, or
–
Connect to NoteBook 14-inch LVDS panel via an AUO-NB adaptor board
•
For customers to evaluate PTN3460
–
Use I
