Product details
Overview
TMDS341APFCR from Texas Instruments is a 3-to-1 DVI/HDMI switch IC for digital video routing in consumer AV systems. It supports up to 2.25 Gbps signaling rate, 80-pin TQFP package, 3.3-V supply operation, and integrated 8-dB input equalization - enabling reliable switching of three HDMI/DVI sources to a single display terminal in digital TVs and audio/video receivers.
For engineers reviewing the TMDS341APFCR datasheet, TMDS341APFCR pinout, TMDS341APFCR application, or TMDS341APFCR equivalent, key selection criteria include TMDS channel skew (<100 ps inter-pair), 5-V-tolerant DDC/HPD interfaces, HDMI 1.3a compliance, integrated 50-Ω receiver termination, and OE-controlled high-impedance outputs during disable.
Technical Context
The TMDS341APFCR implements a 3-input × 4-channel TMDS multiplexer with independent hot-plug detection (HPD) and isolated I²C (DDC) pass-gates per port. Each input includes fixed 8-dB equalization and 50-Ω integrated termination; outputs support selectable 3-dB de-emphasis via PRE pin and comply with TMDS differential voltage swing (560–840 mVpp) when VSADJ is biased with 4.64-kΩ resistor.
Source selection is controlled by three LVTTL logic inputs (S1/S2/S3), routing one active port's TMDS, DDC, and HPD signals to shared output pins (Y1–Y4/Z1–Z4, SDA_SINK/SCL_SINK, HPD_SINK). Unused ports are electrically isolated: DDC buses float, HPD outputs drive low, and TMDS receivers remain active but do not propagate to outputs.
Key Specifications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar DVI/HDMI switching applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TI TMDS341BPFCR | Same pinout and function; supports extended temperature range (–40°C to +85°C) and higher ESD rating (8 kV HBM) | Required for industrial or automotive infotainment displays operating beyond 0°C–70°C | Select TMDS341BPFCR when ambient temperature or reliability requirements exceed commercial grade. |
| ON Semiconductor NB7L14MNR2G | 4-channel 3:1 LVDS/PECL mux; no integrated DDC/HPD, no equalization, requires external termination | Used in non-HDMI systems (e.g., embedded display interfaces) where protocol-aware switching is unnecessary | Choose NB7L14MNR2G only for custom LVDS-based video routing without HDMI compliance needs. |
Compared with TMDS341APFCR, TMDS341BPFCR offers broader thermal qualification and enhanced ESD robustness for harsher environments, while NB7L14MNR2G provides raw signal multiplexing without HDMI-specific features - making TMDS341APFCR the optimal choice for drop-in HDMI/DVI source aggregation in commercial AV equipment.

FAQ
What is the maximum supported resolution and color depth for TMDS341APFCR?
The TMDS341APFCR supports resolutions up to 1080i/p and 720i/p at 2.25 Gbps signaling rate with full 12-bit color depth. This enables 1080p60 video transmission with deep color (36-bit RGB) and meets HDMI 1.3a bandwidth requirements without compression or frame dropping.
Does TMDS341APFCR require external termination resistors on TMDS inputs?
No. The TMDS341APFCR integrates 50-Ω termination resistors at each TMDS input pin, pulled to VCC. External terminations are not required - simplifying PCB layout and reducing component count compared to discrete termination solutions.
How does the TMDS341APFCR handle DDC (I²C) communication during source switching?
The TMDS341APFCR isolates unused DDC buses using bi-directional pass-gates. Only the selected port's SDA/SCL lines connect to SDA_SINK/SCL_SINK; others float. This prevents bus contention and ensures clean EDID reads and HDCP authentication without software intervention.
Can TMDS341APFCR be used with 5-V DDC and HPD signals while powered from a 3.3-V supply?
Yes. All DDC (SCL/SDA) and HPD pins are 5-V tolerant. The TMDS341APFCR operates from 3.3 V but accepts 0–5.5 V on DDC lines and 0–5.3 V on HPD_SINK - enabling direct connection to standard HDMI connectors without level shifters.
What is the purpose of the VSADJ pin on TMDS341APFCR, and how is it configured?
The VSADJ pin sets TMDS output differential voltage swing. A 4.64-kΩ ±1% resistor must be connected from VSADJ to ground to achieve compliant 560–840 mVpp output swing. Incorrect resistance causes non-standard TMDS levels, risking interoperability with HDMI sinks.
