RD1-4020

This board uses the standard DisplayPort connector recommended in the DP specification to connect the DisplayPort output from the PC to the input of the RD1-4020 board, and a dual link DVI connector to interface with a commercial DVI monitor.

Connect the DisplayPort output from a PC source to the RD1-4020 reference board using a DP cable.

Connect the output to a DVI monitor using a DVI cable. Connect the 12 V 4A DC power brick supplied for powering the board. A DisplayPort source that supports DP-Audio transmission is recommended for testing digital audio output of the RD1-4020 board.

Once the connection is established, power ON the PC, DVI display, and the RD1-4020 DP receiver board. An image should pop up on the screen within 5-6 seconds.

I2C host port

Host connector CN401 allows configuration of the STDP4020 IC from an external host microcontroller through conventional I2C interface. User can plug two wires into pin 5 and pin 6 of this connector to access the I2C port of the chip. STDP4020 default device ID is 0xE6/0xE7, but can be changed through bootstrap settings. Refer to the STDP4020 datasheet for further details.
