Overview

The Microtronix HDMI Receiver / Transmitter HSMC Daughter Card interfaces a HDMI receiver and transmitter to your Altera FPGA development kit using the HSMC expansion connector. The receiver also supports an analog component video (YCbCr) interface.

The card uses the Analog Device AD9889 HDMI Transmitter and AD9880B HDMI Receiver a to support HDTV formats up to 1080p at 60 Hz. The Receiver offers designers the flexibility of both an analog interface and HDMI receiver integrated on a single chip.

The cores require the use of an I2C IP Core for device configuration.
