INTRODUCTION The High-Definition Multimedia Interface is provided for transmitting digital television audio-visual signals from DVD players, set-top boxes and other audiovisual sources to television sets, projectors and other video displays. HDMI can carry high quality multi-channel audio data and can carry all standard and high definition consumer electronics video formats. Content protection technology is available. HDMI is the interface for convergence of PC and consumer electronics definition movies and multi-channel audio formats. HDMI is the only interface enabling connections to both HDTVs and digital PC monitors implementing the DVI and HDMI standards. HDMI can also carry control and status information in both directions. This specification completely describes the interface such that one could implement a complete transmission and interconnect solution or any portion of the interface. A device that is compliant with this specification is interoperable with other compliant devices through the configuration and implementation provided for in this specification. Mechanical, electrical, behavioral and protocol requirements necessary for compliance are described for sources, sinks and cables.
HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) is an interface standard used for audiovisual equipment such as high-definition television and home theater systems. With 19 wires wrapped in a single cable that resembles a USB wire, HDMI is able to carry a bandwidth of 5 Gbps (gigabits per second). This is more than twice the bandwidth needed to transmit multi-channel audio and video. This and several other factors make HDMI much more desirable than its predecessors, component video,S-Video and composite video. HDMI is the first & only industry supported, uncompressed, alldigital audio/video interface. HDMI provides an interface between any A/V source, such as a set-top box, DVD player, or A/V receiver and an audio and/or video monitor, such as a digital television (DTV), over a single cable. HDMI supports standard, enhanced, or high-definition video, plus multi-channel digital audio on a single cable. Transmits all ATSC HDTV standards and supports 8-channel, 192kHz, uncompressed digital audio, all currently-available compressed formats & lossless digital audio formats with bandwidth to spare to accommodate future enhancements and requirements
HDMI technology supports standard, enhanced, or highdefinition video at 24 bits/pixel, 165MHz max clock frequency. HDMI technology supports up to 8 channel digital audio on a single cable eliminating costly A/D signal conversions. HDMI offers Bi-directional control signal transfer. HDMI offers 5 Gbps bandwidth, 55% spared for future expansion. HDMI offers 1 simple, user-friendly connector. HDMI technology is backward compatible to DVI hot plug enabled assemblies up to 5 meters in length. Long Lengths available, ATC tested up to 12M and up to 40 M when using EQ technology .
