Jacinto7 J721E/DRA829/TDA4VM Evaluation Module (EVM)
4.18 Display Port Interface
Common Processor Board supports two display port interfaces DP0 and DP1. However, J721E SoC
supports only DP0. DP1 shall be available on CP board to support future J7 SoC. Display port is
connected to Torrent SERDES (SERDES4) internal to J721E SoC. 4K UHD Display (3840 x 2160) @ 120
Hz (MST- Multi stream support), up to Two 4K UHD Displays (3840 x 2160) @ 60 Hz (MST) can be
supported by CP board display port interface. Standard full-size Molex display connector Mfr. Part#
472720001 is used to interface with displays.
Figure 53. Display Port Block Diagram
Separate ESD protection devices of Mfr. Part# TPD1E05U06DPY are used for main and auxiliary data
channels and Common mode filters MCZ1210DH900L2TA0G at every differential data and aux pairs.
Supply 3.3 V, 500 mA for each connector has been given through individual LDOs Mfr. Part#
TPS74801DRCR. The LDO has active high enable input and is disabled by default. Driving high from
GPIO from I/O Expander4 (I2C ADD# 0x20) Port0 and Port1 will enable the supplies to Display Port
connectors.
4.19 MLB Interface
Common Processor board supports for Media Local Bus (MLB) interface.
Differential pairs of MLB signals from J721E SoC are routed to Samtec header Mfr. Part# QSH-020-01-L-
D-DP-A-K. This interfaces is designed to mate with MicroChip’s MLB Physical interface board. The
differential signals are routed with a characteristic impedance of 100E and also a Pull up and Pull-down
option is provided for the N and P signals respectively. The reset signal that comes from the expander
(I2C ADD# 0x22, I2C0) is availed with a pull down to avoid floating, and the interrupt signal is equipped
with a pull up and routed to J721E SoM.
The 12 V and 3.3 V are drawn from the CP board to the connector; the I2C control is provided to the MLB
Header from I2C0 port of J721E SoC.
