will need an HDMI TPA fixture and at least
two 13 GHz or higher InfiniiMax differential
probe amplifiers with appropriate SMA
probe heads. If you choose to probe HDMI
signals not using an HDMI TPA fixture,
you will need to select the appropriate
probe head for a solder-in or browsed
connection. For instance, if the TMDS
signals are accessible for testing silicon
devices, you will need to use a solder-in
differential probe head for low loading
probing.

Manual interconnection time can be
minimized for the key performance tests
by using four InfiniiMax probes to measure
all three differential data lanes (D0, D1,
D2) and clock without having to reposition
or reconnect probes. This is called the
‘four probe connection’ and is selectable
(for HDMI 1.4b testing) in the connection
setup screen: choose four channel and
three data links.
Oscilloscope compatibility
The HDMI electrical performance
validation and compliance software
is compatible with Keysight Infiniium
Series oscilloscopes with operating
software revision 4.20 or higher. For
oscilloscopes with earlier revisions,
free upgrade software is available here:
