Engineers designing and validating the HDMI physical layer of their devices face constant pressure to improve efficiency. Designers need to perform a wide range of compliance tests quickly and reliably right on their bench. HDMI 2.0 supports features like 2160p (also known as Ultra HD/4K 2K 60/50 Hz), operating at 5.94 Gcps apart from 4K 2K 4:2:0, using the same Cat 2 cable and HDMI 1.4b connector. HDMI 1.4a/b introduces Automotive HDMI (Type E) in addition to Mobile HDMI (Type D), HEAC, 3D HDMI, 4K × 2K patterns, and new Calorimetric patterns, all operating up to 3.4 Gb/s.
Option HDM and HDM-DS Advanced Analysis and Compliance Software automates a comprehensive range of tests according to CTS 2.0. TDSHT3 and HT3-DS HDMI Compliance Test Software automate a comprehensive range of tests according to CTS 1.4b - enabling unprecedented efficiency with reliable results. HDMI 1.4b compliance testing is a PREREQUISITE for HDMI 2.0 testing.
The new Option HDM-DSM adds Advanced Analysis and Characterization support for HDMI 2.0 Receiver tests.
Key Features:
- Conformance to HDMI 2.0 Compliance Test Specification (CTS)
