Functional description
The STDVE003A routes physical layer signals for high bandwidth digital video and is
compatible with low voltage differential signaling standard like TMDS. The device passes the
differential inputs from a video source to a common display when it is in the active mode of
operation. The device conforms to the TMDS standard on both inputs and outputs.
The low on-resistance and low I/O capacitance of the switch in STDVE003A result in a very
small propagation delay. The device integrates SPDT-type switches for 3 differential data
TMDS channels and 1 differential clock channel. Additionally, it integrates the switches for
DDC and HPD line switching with I

Adaptive equalizer
The equalizer dramatically reduces the intersymbol interference (ISI) jitter and attenuation
from long or lossy transmission media. The inputs present high impedance when the device
is not active or when V
on input channels are present.
This circuit helps to improve the signal eye pattern significantly. Shaping is performed by the
gain stage of the equalizer to compensate the signal degradation and then the signals are
driven on to the output ports.
The equalizer is fully adaptive and automatic in function providing smaller gain at low
frequencies and higher gain at high frequencies. The default setting of EQ_BOOST = L is
recommended for optimized operation.
