Product details
Overview
PTN3356BS/F2MP from NXP Semiconductors is a flash-based DisplayPort-to-VGA adapter IC designed for motherboard-level video interface bridging. It integrates a VESA-compliant DisplayPort v1.4 receiver, triple 8-bit DACs, and I²C-over-AUX DDC bridging to convert digital DP signals (2-lane HBR/RBR) into analog RGBHV outputs compliant with VSIS 1.2. It supports WUXGA (1920×1200@60 Hz, 193 MHz pixel clock) and operates from a single 3.3 V supply.
For engineers reviewing the PTN3356BS/F2MP datasheet, PTN3356BS/F2MP pinout, PTN3356BS/F2MP application, or PTN3356BS/F2MP equivalent, key selection criteria include its dual-lane DP input support (2.7 Gbit/s per lane), 240 MHz max pixel clock capability, low-power mode (410 µW), monitor presence detection via RGB load sensing, and firmware-configurable HPD behavior for interoperability across legacy VGA displays.
Technical Context
The PTN3356BS/F2MP implements a full DisplayPort v1.4 receiver with auto-receive equalization and CDR, supporting both 1- and 2-lane Main Link at RBR (1.62 Gbit/s) or HBR (2.7 Gbit/s) with BER < 10⁻⁹. Its AUX channel operates at 1 MHz with native and I²C-over-AUX syntax support, enabling DDC/CI and MCCS protocol translation between DP source and VGA monitor.
Internally, it features three independent 8-bit current-source DACs driving 700 mVpp analog RGB outputs into double-terminated 75 Ω loads, synchronized by 3.3 V HSYNC/VSYNC signals. Monitor detection uses active RGB line pulsing to sense 75 Ω termination, reporting status via HPD IRQ and DPCD register updates without requiring external circuitry.
Key Specifications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar DisplayPort-to-VGA conversion applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ANX7530 | Supports eDP input instead of DP; lacks native I²C-over-AUX; requires external EEPROM for EDID | Targeted at embedded eDP sources (e.g., tablets), not discrete DP graphics outputs | Choose ANX7530 only when interfacing with eDP transmitters and external EDID management is acceptable |
| PS8315 | Single-lane DP input only; max pixel clock 165 MHz; no ASSR or Enhanced Framing support | Limited to UXGA and below; unsuitable for WUXGA or high-refresh-rate SXGA+ modes | Use PS8315 where cost is critical and resolution requirements do not exceed 1600×1200@60 Hz |
Compared with ANX7530 and PS8315, PTN3356BS/F2MP uniquely combines dual-lane DP v1.4 support, 240 MHz pixel clock, integrated DDC bridging, and firmware-configurable HPD-making it the only option qualified for full-featured motherboard-level VGA retrofitting with guaranteed WUXGA timing compliance.

FAQ
What display resolutions does PTN3356BS/F2MP support?
PTN3356BS/F2MP supports resolutions from VGA (640×480@60 Hz) up to WUXGA (1920×1200@60 Hz), including SVGA, XGA, SXGA, UXGA, and FHD. At 18 bpp, it handles pixel clocks up to 240 MHz; at 24 bpp, up to 180 MHz. Specific timing modes like reduced-blanking WUXGA (154 MHz) and UXGA (162 MHz) are explicitly validated in the datasheet.
Does PTN3356BS/F2MP require external memory or firmware loading?
No. PTN3356BS/F2MP integrates flash memory storing firmware and configuration data. It operates immediately upon power-up with no external EEPROM, SPI flash, or host-initiated firmware download required-enabling true plug-and-play functionality in motherboard and dongle designs.
How does PTN3356BS/F2MP handle VGA monitor detection?
PTN3356BS/F2MP performs active load sensing on the RED, GRN, and BLU analog output lines to detect the presence of a 75 Ω VGA termination. When a monitor is connected or disconnected, it updates the DPCD registers and asserts/deasserts the HPD signal to notify the DP source-eliminating the need for mechanical switches or external detection circuitry.
Can PTN3356BS/F2MP operate with a 25 MHz crystal oscillator?
Yes. The CFG5 pin selects the oscillator frequency: LOW configures 25 MHz, HIGH selects 24 MHz, and OPEN enables 27 MHz. All three frequencies are fully supported and validated for stable operation across the full temperature range (0°C to +85°C).
What power supply rails does PTN3356BS/F2MP require?
PTN3356BS/F2MP requires only a single 3.3 V supply (VDDA33_DNW, VDDE33_IO, PVDD33) for core logic, I/O, and switching regulator input. Internal regulators generate 1.5 V for the DP PHY (VDDA15_DP), DAC (VDDA15_DAC), and digital core (VDDD15) from SWOUT-reducing external component count and simplifying power design.
