Product details
Overview
TDES4940RURT from Texas Instruments is a V3Link Enhanced Video to Embedded DisplayPort (eDP) bridge deserializer IC for high-resolution video transport in automotive and medical displays. It supports 4K @ 60 Hz (30-bit color), VESA DP v1.4a/eDP v1.4b compliance, HBR3 link rate (8.1 Gbps per lane), dual-channel V3Link up to 27 Gbps, and operates from 1.8V/1.15V supplies across –20°C to +85°C.
For engineers reviewing the TDES4940RURT datasheet, TDES4940RURT pinout, TDES4940RURT application, or TDES4940RURT equivalent, key selection criteria include V3Link receiver capability, eDP transmitter compliance, HDCP v1.4 integration, adaptive equalization, and VQFNP-88 package thermal performance in space-constrained display systems.
Technical Context
The TDES4940RURT functions as a deserializer in a bidirectional V3Link Enhanced Video chipset, receiving serialized video/audio/control over coax or STP cables and reconstructing it into a native eDP output stream. Its architecture includes dual-channel V3Link receivers with adaptive equalization, a VESA-compliant eDP v1.4b transmitter supporting 1/2/4-lane main link configurations, and integrated HDCP v1.4 with on-chip keys.
Control channel implementation uses two fast-mode-plus I²C interfaces (up to 1 MHz), high-speed GPIOs enabling SPI/UART pass-through, and ultra-low-latency command routing. Diagnostics include on-die temperature/voltage monitoring, BIST, CRC error detection, ECC on control bits, and unique ID for anti-counterfeiting.

FAQ
What video resolutions does the TDES4940RURT support?
The TDES4940RURT supports up to 4K resolution at 60 Hz with 30-bit color depth, enabled by its V3Link Enhanced Video receiver (up to 27 Gbps aggregate) and VESA-compliant eDP v1.4b transmitter with HBR3 capability. It also supports lower resolutions including 2K in compatible V3Link mode, and handles SuperFrame formats for synchronized multi-stream transport. The TDES4940RURT achieves this without external frame buffers or timing controllers.
Does the TDES4940RURT include built-in HDCP support?
Yes, the TDES4940RURT integrates HDCP v1.4 with on-chip cryptographic keys, eliminating the need for external HDCP ICs or firmware-based key management. This allows seamless, standards-compliant content protection for premium video sources such as medical imaging feeds or commercial media streams. The TDES4940RURT handles authentication, encryption, and key renewal internally during eDP link training.
What package type and pin count does the TDES4940RURT use?
The TDES4940RURT uses an 88-pin VQFNP (RUR) package with a 12 mm × 12 mm body size, 0.5 mm pitch, and maximum height of 0.9 mm. This leadless quad flatpack design supports high I/O density and efficient thermal dissipation - critical for sustained 4K video processing in confined display enclosures. The TDES4940RURT's pinout is documented in TI's SNLS747 datasheet, including dedicated V3Link RX, eDP TX, I²C, and GPIO banks.
Can the TDES4940RURT operate in daisy-chain or split configurations?
Yes, the TDES4940RURT supports both daisy-chain and splitting topologies via its dual-channel V3Link Enhanced Video interface. In daisy-chain mode, it forwards control and video data to downstream devices; in split mode, it distributes independent video streams to multiple eDP sinks. This capability is implemented in hardware and requires no external logic - a key feature distinguishing the TDES4940RURT from basic deserializers.
What is the operating temperature range for the TDES4940RURT?
The TDES4940RURT is rated for continuous operation from –20°C to +85°C, meeting industrial and automotive cabin environmental requirements without thermal derating. This range is validated per JEDEC JESD22-A108 and supported by on-die temperature monitoring circuitry that reports real-time die temperature via I²C. The TDES4940RURT maintains full specification compliance - including HBR3 link stability and HDCP handshake timing - across this full range.
