Panel display interfaces and bandwidth: From TTL, LVDS, TDMS to DisplayPort
Design Article
1080p panels in 8-bit color require approximately 3Gbps bandwidth, which exceeds the capability of a 4-pair LVDS interface. To meet the bandwidth requirements of Digital Cinema resolution at 4096x2160, with10 bit and 12 bit color, up to 8-links and bus widths of 40 pairs (808 wires) are used. An overview of panel display interface standards, and where they're heading.
