D5
5-bit indicator of the lane count at the DisplayPort Sink. The LED arrangement is {D5, D6, D7, D8, D9}:
  • 00001 = 1 lane
  • 00010 = 2 lanes
  • 00100 = 4 lanes

If LED D7 illuminates while other LEDs are off, the lane count at the DisplayPort Sink is 4.

DisplayPort Sink link rate

C18/1.8V

D18/1.8V

USER_LED_G6

USER_LED_G7

D4

D3

2-bit indicator of the link rate at the DisplayPort Sink. The LED arrangement is {D3, D4}:
  • 00 = 1.62 Gbps (RBR)
  • 01 = 2.70 Gbps (HBR)
  • 10 = 5.40 Gbps (HBR2)

If LED D3 illuminates while LED D4 is off, the DisplayPort Sink is operating at HBR2 link rate.
