Parade PS186 DP to HDMI

PS186 is a DisplayPort 1.4 to HDMI 2.0b Protocol Converter that receives both video and audio streams

from DisplayPort link and converts to TMDS output. The DP receiver supports up to 8.1Gbps link rate over

4 lanes. The TMDS transmitter is compliant with HDMI 2.0b specification with data rate up to 6Gbps.

PS186 supports HDCP 1.4 and HDCP 2.2 repeater for downstream sink with an embedded key.

PS186 supports HDR metadata transport, which uses the “secondary data packet” transport inherent in the

DP to provide support for the CTA 861.3 standard.

PS186 integrates an on-chip microcontroller with an interface to external SPI ROM.

The system level block diagram of PS186 is described in Figure 2. Detailed descriptions of each functional

block are given in the following sections.
