6.5.5. Clocked Video Input Interface

The rxN_video_out interface may interface with a clocked video input (CVI). CVI accepts the following video signals with a separate synchronization mode: datavalid, de, h_sync, v_sync, f, locked, and data.

The DisplayPort rxN_video_out interface has the following signals: rxN_vid_valid, rxN_vid_sol, rxN_vid_eol, rxN_vid_sof, rxN_vid_eof, rxN_vid_locked, and rxN_vid_data.

The following table describes how to connect the CVI and DisplayPort sink signals.
Note: This example uses the Intel® Clocked Video Input IP.

Comment

vid_data rx_vid_data

Video data

vid_datavalid

Drive high because the video data is not oversampled.

vid_f

rx_vid_field

Drive low because the video data is progressive.

vid_locked rx_vid_locked

The core asserts this signal when a stable stream is present.

vid_de rx_vid_valid

Indicates the active picture region of a line.

vid_h_sync rx_vid_eol

The rx_vid_eol signal generates the vid_h_sync pulse by delaying it (by 1 clock cycle) to appear in the horizontal blanking period after the active video ends (rx_vid_valid is deasserted).

vid_v_sync rx_vid_eof

The rx_vid_eof signal generates the vid_v_sync pulse by delaying it (by 1 clock cycle) to appear in the vertical blanking period after the active video ends (rx_vid_valid is deasserted).
