PI2EQXDP101-AZFEX

Signal Buffers, Repeaters, Splitters Overview

The PI2EQXDP101-AZFEX is a 1-to-1 DisplayPort ReDriver manufactured by Diodes Incorporated. It supports DisplayPort 1.1a operation at reduced bit rate (1.62 Gbps) and high bit rate (2.7 Gbps), providing a total throughput of 10.8 Gbps across four lanes. The device utilizes dual power supplies: VDD15 operating at 1.5V ± 5% and VDD33 operating at 3.3V ± 5%. Active power consumption reaches 400 mW with all four lanes operating at 2.7 Gbps, while standby power is 20 mW. It features automatic link training adjustment for pre-emphasis and output swing, AUX interception circuits, and HPD-based power management. The component is housed in a 36-pin TQFN package.

Signal Buffers, Repeaters, Splitters Feature Summary

• Supports DisplayPort 1.1a specifications with adjustable output swing and pre-emphasis levels via AUX command decoding.
• Includes an AUX interception circuit that monitors link training without affecting the process, ensuring low insertion loss.
• Features automatic power-down states triggered by HPD signals or absence of data signals to optimize energy efficiency.
• Provides dual-mode DP support through DDC signal pass-through and cable detect switching capabilities.

Signal Buffers, Repeaters, Splitters Applications

• Extending DisplayPort cable lengths in desktop computers and workstations.
• Signal integrity enhancement in portable devices such as laptops and tablets.
• High-definition video connection interfaces requiring compliance with DisplayPort standards.

Signal Buffers, Repeaters, Splitters Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix 'E' indicates Pb-Free and Green status, and 'X' denotes Tape/Reel packaging. Confirm the manufacturer origin, as the datasheet references Pericom Semiconductor Corporation, now part of Diodes Incorporated. Ensure compatibility with the 36-contact TQFN (ZF) package dimensions during PCB layout planning.

Signal Buffers, Repeaters, Splitters Selection Notes

Select this component when designing systems requiring passive signal extension for DisplayPort 1.1a links up to 2.7 Gbps per lane. Consider its dual voltage requirements (1.5V and 3.3V) and the necessity for AC coupling capacitors on the transmitter side. Evaluate the need for AUX channel monitoring and automatic power management features relative to system power constraints.

Signal Buffers, Repeaters, Splitters Part Context

This component belongs to the PI2EQXDP series of DisplayPort Redrivers designed to maintain signal integrity over extended traces or cables. It serves as a bridge between DisplayPort transmitters and receivers, compensating for channel loss through programmable equalization settings derived from link training commands.
