PI3VDP411LS
Digital Video Level Shifter from AC coupled
digital video input to a DVI/HDMI transmitter
TMDS Outputs
The level shifter's TMDS outputs are required to meet HDMI 1.3 specifications.
The HDMI 1.3 Specification is assumed to be the correct reference in instances where this document conflicts
with the HDMI 1.3 specification.
