LM2512A Mobile Pixel Link (MPL-1), 24-Bit RGB Display Interface Serializer with Optional
Dithering and Look Up Table
Check for Samples: LM2512A
FEATURES
DESCRIPTION
•
The LM2512A is a MPL Serializer (SER) that
performs a 24-bit to 18-bit Dither operation and
serialization of the video signals to Mobile Pixel link
(MPL) levels on only 3 or 4 active signals. An optional
Look Up Table (Three X 256 X 8 bit RAM) is also
provided for independent color correction. 18-bit
Bufferless or partial buffer displays from QVGA (320
x 240) up to VGA (640 x 480) pixels can utilize a 24bit video source.

•
•
•
The interconnect is reduced from 28 signals to only 3
or 4 active signals with the LM2512A and companion
deserializer easing flex interconnect design, size
constraints and cost.
The LM2512A SER resides by the application,
graphics or baseband processor and translates the
wide parallel video bus from LVCMOS levels to serial
Mobile Pixel Link levels for transmission over a flex
cable (or coax) and PCB traces to the DES located
near or in the display module.
When in Power_Down, the SER is put to sleep and
draws less than 10μA. The link can also be powered
down by stopping the PCLK (DES dependant) or by
the PD* input pins.
Dithered Data Reduction
Independent RGB Color Correction
24-bit Color Input
Small Interface, Low Power and Low EMI
Intrinsic Level Translation
The LM2512A provides enhanced AC performance
over the LM2512. It implements the physical layer of
the MPL-1 and uses a single-ended current-mode
transmission.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The LM2512A is a Mobile Pixel Link (MPL) Serializer that serializes a 24-bit RGB plus three control signals (VS,
HS, and DE) to two or three MPL MD lines plus the serial clock MC. Two options are provided: 24-bit RGB data
dithering to 18 bits, and an optional Look Up Table. The three 256 X 8-bit RAMs may also be used and is
controlled via a 3-wire SPI interface. The LM2512A is compatible with certain discrete MPL Deserializers and
also Display Drivers with integrated MPL Deserializers (i.e. FPD95320).

BUS OVERVIEW
The LM2512A is a multi-lane MPL Serializer that supports a 24-bit RGB source interface. The MPL physical layer
is purpose-built for an extremely low power and low EMI data transmission while requiring the fewest number of
signal lines. No external line components are required, as termination is provided internal to the MPL receiver. A
maximum raw throughput of 480 Mbps (3-lane raw) is possible with this chipset. The MPL interface is designed
for use with common 50Ω to 100Ω lines using standard materials and connectors. Lines may be microstrip or
stripline construction. Total length of the interconnect is expected to be less than 20cm.

SERIAL BUS PHASES
There are three bus phases on the MPL serial bus. These are determined by the state of the MC and MD lines.
The MPL bus phases are shown in Table 1.
The LM2512A supports MPL Level 0 Enhanced Protocol with a Class 0 PHY.

Notes on MC/MD Line State:
0 = no current (off)
L = Logic Low—The higher level of current on the MC and MD lines
H = Logic High—The lower level of current on the MC and MD lines
X = Low or High
A = Active Clock
SERIAL BUS START UP TIMING
In the Serial Bus OFF phase, SER line drivers for MDs and MC are turned off such that zero current flows over
the MPL lines. On the SER side, when the PD* input pin is de-asserted (driven High), or with PD* = High and the
PCLK is turned on, the SER will power up its bias block during t0.
The SER will next drive the MC line to the logic Low (5I current) state for 200 PCLK cycles (t1). The DES devices
detects the current flowing in the MC line, and powers up its analog circuit blocks (or alternately is controlled by
its PD* input pin - device specific).
The SER then drives the MC line to a logic High (1I current) for 20 PCLK cycles (t2). On the MC low-to-high
transition, the DES samples the current and optimizes it current sources to match that of the drivers.
The MC is now driven to a logic Low (5I current) for 8 PCLK cycles (t3).
Next the SER PLL is locked to the PCLK. A hold off counter of 600 PCLK cycles is used to hold off until the PLL
has locked and is stable (t4). At this point, streaming RGB information is now sent across the MPL link.
Link-Up is shown in Figure 9. The MC and MDn signals are current waveforms. Data at the DES output will
appear a latency delay later.

OFF PHASE
In the OFF phase, MPL transmitters are turned off with zero current flowing on the MC and MDn lines. Figure 10
shows the transition of the MPL bus into the OFF phase. If an MPL line is driven to a logical Low (high current)
when the OFF phase is entered it may temporarily pass through as a logical High (low current) before reaching
the zero line current state. The link may be powered down by asserting both the SER’s and DES’s PD* input pins
(Low) or by stopping the PCLK (DES dependant). This causes the devices to immediately put the link to the OFF
Phase and internally enter a low power state.

RGB VIDEO INTERFACE
The LM2512A is transparent to data format and control signal timing. Each PCLK, RGB inputs, HS, VS and DE
are sampled on the rising edge of the PCLK. A PCLK by PCLK representation of these signals is duplicated on
the opposite device after being transferred across the MPL Level-0 interface.
The LM2512A can accommodate a wide range of display formats. QVGA to VGA can be supported within the
2MHz to 20 MHz PCLK input range.
The 24-bit RGB (R0-7, G0-7, B0-7) color information is dithered to 18 bits then serialized, followed by the control
bits VS (VSYNC), HS (HSYNC), DE (Data Enable) and PE (Odd Parity) and Frame Sequence (F[1:0]) bits.
The default configuration is for 2 MD lanes plus the MC. Via the SPI Interface, the Serializer can be configured
for a 3 MD Lane configuration.
When transporting color depth below 24-bit, the 24-bit protocol can be used by offsetting the color data. The
LSBs of the RGB are not used and data is offset toward the upper (MSB) end of the bit fields. Unused inputs
should be tied off.
At a maximum PCLK of 20 MHz (3MDs), a 80MHz MC clock is generated. The data lane rate uses both clock
edges, thus 160Mbps (raw) are sent per MD lane.

If a data error or clock slip error occurs over the MPL link, the RGB MPL Deserializer can detect this condition
and recover from it. The method chosen is a data transparent method, and has very little overhead because it
does not use a data expansion coding method. For the Dithered 18-bit color transaction, it uses two bits that are
already required in the 4 MC cycle transaction. Total overhead for each pixel is 3/24 or 12.5%.
The LM2512A MPL RGB Serializer simply increments the two bit field F[1:0] on every pixel (MPL frame)
transmitted. Therefore every four MPL frames, the pattern will repeat. It is very unlikely that this pattern would be
found within the payload data, and if it were found, the probability that it would repeat for many frames becomes
infinitely small. This code is used by the MPL Deserializer to detect any frame alignment problems and quickly
recover.
The RGB MPL Deserializer, upon a normal power up sequence, starts in the proper synchronization. If
synchronization is lost for any reason, it searches for the incrementing pattern. Once found, it resynchronizes the
output pixel data and timing signals. See MPL DES Datasheet for details on how the specific DES handles the
Frame Sequence.
OPTIONAL DITHERING FEATURE
The LM2512A is a 2 or 3-Lane MPL Serializer, 24-bit RGB input data (8-bits/color channel) is internally dithered
to 18-bits (6-bits/color channel) using a high-quality stochastic dithering process. This process has a "blue noise"
characteristic that minimizes the visibility of the dither patterns. The resulting data stream of 18-bit data is then
serialized and transmitted via MPL.
The Dither circuitry requires the VS control signal for proper operation. This signal is used to generate a
internal signal that marks the start of the (video) frame. The serializer samples and sends the VS information
unmodified.
Dithering parameters are controled by two registers. When the dithering is bypassed, only RGB[7:2] is serialized
and transmitted for 18-bit input RGB [5:0] (MSB aligned). RGB[1:0] should not be connected and the unsed input
should be tied low; do not leave input open.

OPTIONAL LOOK UP TABLE AND SPI INTERFACE
Three 256 X 8-bit SRAMs provide a Look Up Table for independent color correction. The LUT is disabled by
default and also after a device PD* cycle. The PD* cycle can be entered via the PD* input pin directly, or by
stopping the PCLK. Before using the LUT, the SRAM must be loaded with its contents. If power is cycled to the
device, the LUT must be loaded again.

Enable the LUT - Write a 01’h to REG0 (00’h)
De-Select/Lock the LM2512A SPI interface -Write 00’h to REG22 (16’h)
When waking up the LM2512A from the power down mode (PD*=L), the LUT needs to be enabled if it is desired.
Contents to the SRAM are still held and valid.
1. Select/Unlock the LM2512A SPI Interface - Write FF’h to REG22 (16’h)
2. Enable the LUT - Write a 01’h to REG0 (00’h)
3. Optional -select Lane Scale if not using default
4. De-Select/Lock the LM2512A SPI interface -Write a 00’h to REG22 (16’h)
If power is cycled to the device, the LUT SRAMs must be loaded again.
SPI Interface
The Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) allows control over various aspects of the LM2512A, the Look Up Table
operation, and access to the three 256 x 8-RAM blocks. There are 9 defined registers in the device. Three SPI
transactions are supported, which are: 16-bit WRITE, PAGE WRITE, and a 16-bit READ. The SPI interface is
disabled when the device is in the sleep mode (via PCLK Stop or by PD* = L). The SPI interface may be used
when PD* = H.
16-bit WRITE
The 16-bit WRITE is shown in Figure 15. The SDA payload consists of a "0" (Write Command), seven address
bits and eight data bits. The CSX signal is driven Low, and 16-bits of SDA (data) are sent to the device. Data is
latched on the rising edge of the SCL. After each 16-bit WRITE, CSX must return HIGH.

There are three SPI Interface signals: CSX - SPI Chip Select, SCL - SPI Clock, and SDA - SPI Data. CSX and
SCL are inputs on the LM2512A. SDA is a bi-directional Data line and is an input for a WRITE and an output for
the READ_DATA portion of a READ operation. READs are optional and are not required. Due to the
Select/Unlock – De-Select/Lock feature of the device the SPI interface may be shared with the display driver.
Several connection configurations are possible. A couple examples are shown in Figure 13 and Figure 14.

Power Up Sequence
The MPL Link must be powered up and enabled in a certain sequence for proper operation of the link and
devices. The following list provides the recommended sequence:
1. Apply Power (See Power Supply Section)
2. PD* Input should be held low until Power is stable and within specification and PCLK is driven to a static
level.
3. PD* is driven HIGH, SPI interface is now available.
4. To program the device via the SPI interface:
– Select / Unlock the LM2512A, Write FF’h to REG 16’h
– LUT registers are now accessible
– If Lane Scale Register needs to be modified, this is accessed through bit 4 of the Command register.
– A write to REG 16’h on any other value besides FF’h will de-select / lock the LM2512A’s SPI

Figure 19. Power Up Sequence
A typical connection diagram is shown in Figure 18. The LM2512A SPI is configured to support write only
transactions in this example. The FPD95320 can support both writes and reads on its SPI interface. Figure 19
shows a typical power up sequence using the shared SPI interface. Power is brought up first. The RST_N signal
is held low until power to the FPD95320 (not shown) and the LM2512A is stable and within specifications. Next
the RST_N signal is driven High, which allows access to the SPI interfaces. The PCLK should also be turned on
and held at a static level (High or Low). The FPD95320 is selected first via a write to register 16’h and the display
is initialized. Next a write of FF’h to register 16’h. This command will Lock the FPD95320 SPI interface and
Select / Unlock the LM2512A SPI interface. By default, the LM2512A powers up in 2 MD lanes with the Dither
and the LUT disabled. The Look-up Table - LUT is accessible by enabling bit 0 of the command register 00’h.
The Special Register Access - SRA are also accessible for lane scaling by enabling bit 4 of the command
register 00’h. To enable the LUT and unlock SRA, write of 11’h to register 00’h (see Table 5). To change to 3 MD
lanes, write of 04’h to register 0A’h. Next additional commands are sent to the FPD95320 by issuing a Unlock
command to the FPD95320 register 16’h which also de-selects / locks the LM2512A SPI. After the SPI
commands are completed, the MPL_PD_N signal is driven High to arm the Deserializer for the MPL start
sequence. The PCLK is started up, and the SER will calibrate the DES and lock to the incoming PCLK signal.
Once this is completed, video data transmission occurs and the link is ON.
Application Configurations
Many different application configurations are possible with the flexible LM2512A Serializer. These include:
• LM2512A - 2 MD Lane to FPD95320 Display Driver
• LM2512A - 2 MD Lane to LM2506 DES
• LM2512A - 3 MD Lane - Reserved for future use

LM2512A OPERATION
POWER SUPPLIES
The VDD and VDDA (MPL and PLL) must be connected to the same potential between 1.6V and 2.0V. VDDIO
powers the logic interface and may be powered between 1.6V and 3.0V to be compatible with a wide range of
host and target devices.
VDD/VDDA should be powered ON at the same time as VDDIO or before. VDDIO then VDD/VDDA is not recommended.
BYPASS RECOMMENDATIONS
Bypass capacitors should be placed near the power supply pins of the device. Use high frequency ceramic
(surface mount recommended) 0.1 µF capacitors. A 2.2 to 4.7 µF Tantalum capacitor is recommended near the
SER VDDA pin for PLL bypass. Connect bypass capacitors with wide traces and use dual or larger via to reduce
resistance and inductance of the feeds. Utilizing a thin spacing between power and ground planes will provide
good high frequency bypass above the frequency range where most typical surface mount capacitors are less
effective. To gain the maximum benefit from this, low inductance feed points are important. Also, adjacent signal
layers can be filled to create additional capacitance. Minimize loops in the ground returns also for improved
signal fidelity and lowest emissions.
UNUSED/OPEN PINS
Unused inputs must be tied to the proper input level—do not float them.
PHASE-LOCKED LOOP
A PLL is enabled to generate the serial link clock. The Phase-locked loop system generates the serial data clock
at 4X or 6X of the input clock depending upon the number of MD Lanes selected. The MC rate is limited to 80
MHz for this enhanced Class 0 MPL PHY.
POWER DOWN/OFF CONFIGURATION / OPTIONS AND CLOCK STOP
The LM2512A (SER) can be controlled by it’s PD* input pin or via a auto power down mode that monitors the
PCLK input signal.
For PD* Input Power Down control, a GPO signal from the host is used to enable and disable the LM2512A and
the DES. The LM2512A is enabled when the PD* input is High and disabled when the PD* input is Low.

SNLS269B – AUGUST 2007 – REVISED MAY 2013

When using the auto power down mode, the PD* input needs to be held High. When the PCLK is held static, the
SER will detect this condition and power down. When the PCLK is restarted, the SER powers up, The DES is
calibrated, and the PLL locks to the incoming clock signal. Once this is complete, video data transmission can
occur. See Figure 3, Figure 4, and Figure 9. The stopping of the pixel clock should be done cleanly. The
minimum clock stop gap should be at least 4 PCLK cycles wide. Floating of the PCLK input pin is not
recommended. Consult the MPL DES datasheet to determine requirements that the DES requires.
LM2512A vs LM2512
The following list provides the differences between the LM2512 and the enhanced LM2512A.
• Increased Idata Current
• Enhanced Current Matching
• Enhanced MC Duty Cycle
• 2 MD Lane Default Configuration
• Dither Off Default
• LUT Default State (IDDZ)

APPLICATION INFORMATION
SYSTEM BANDWIDTH CALCULATIONS
For a HVGA (320 X 480) application with the following assumptions: 60 Hz +/−5% refresh rate, 10% blanking,
RGB666, and 2 MD Lanes and following calculations can be made:
Calculate PCLK - 320 X 480 X 1.1 X 60 X 1.05 = 10.6 MHz PCLK
Calculate MC rate - since the application is 2 MD lanes, PCLK X 6 is the MC rate or 63.87 MHz. Also check that
this MC rate does not exceed the MC maximum rate for the chipset.
Calculate MD rate - MPL uses both edges of the MC to send serialized data, thus data rate is 2X the MC rate, or
127.7 Mbps per MD lane in our example.
Calculate the application throughput - using 2 MD lanes, throughput is 2 X of the MD rate or 255.5 Mbps of raw
band width.
For a VGA (640 X 480) application with the following assumptions: 55 Hz +/−5% refresh rate, 10% blanking,
RGB666, and 3 MD Lanes and following calculations can be made:
Calculate PCLK - 640 X 480 X 1.1 X 55 X 1.05 = 19.5 MHz PCLK
Calculate MC rate - since the application is 3 MD lanes, PCLK X 4 is the MC rate or 78.1 MHz. Also check that
this MC rate does not exceed the MC maximum rate for the chipset.
Calculate MD rate - MPL uses both edges of the MC to send serialized data, thus data rate is 2X the MC rate, or
156 Mbps per MD lane in our example.
Calculate the application throughput - using 3MD lanes, throughput is 3X of the MD rate or 468 Mbps of raw
band width.
SYSTEM CONSIDERATIONS
When employing the MPL SER/DES chipset in place of a parallel video bus, a few system considerations must
be taken into account. Before sending video data to the display, the SER/DES must be ready to transmit data
across the link. The MPL link must be powered up, and the PLL must be locked and the DES calibrated.

SNLS269B – AUGUST 2007 – REVISED MAY 2013
The MPL lines should generally run together to minimize any trace length differences (skew). For impedance
control and also noise isolation (crosstalk), guard ground traces are recommended in between the signals.
Commonly a Ground-Signal-Ground (GSGSGSG) layout is used. Locate fast edge rate and large swing signals
further away to also minimize any coupling (unwanted crosstalk). In a stacked flex interconnect, crosstalk also
needs to be taken into account in the above and below layers (vertical direction). To minimize any coupling
locate MPL traces next to a ground layer. Power rails also tend to generate less noise than LVCMOS so they are
also good candidates for use as isolation and separation.
The interconnect from the SER to the DES typically acts like a transmission line. Thus impedance control and
ground returns are an important part of system design. Impedance should be in the 50 to 100 Ohm nominal
range for the LM2512A. Testing has been done with cables ranging from 40 to 110 Ohms without error (BER
Testing). To obtain the impedance, adjacent grounds are typically required (1 layer flex), or a ground shield /
layer. Total interconnect length is intended to be in the 20cm range, however 30cm is possible at lower data
rates. Skew should be less than 500ps to maximize timing margins.
GROUNDING
While the LM2512A employs three separate types of ground pins, these are intended to be connected together
to a common ground plane. The separate ground pins help to isolate switching currents from different sections of
the integrated circuit (IC). Also required is a nearby signal return (ground) for the MPL signals. These should be
provided next to the MPL signals, as that will create the smallest current loop area. The grounds are also useful
for noise isolation and impedance control.
PCB RECOMMENDATIONS
General guidelines for the PCB design:
• Floor plan, locate MPL SER near the connector to limit chance of cross talk to high speed serial signals.
• Route serial traces together, minimize the number of layer changes to reduce loading.
• Use ground lines as guards to minimize any noise coupling (specifies distance).
• Avoid parallel runs with fast edge, large LVCMOS swings.
• Also use a GSGSG pinout in connectors (Board to Board or ZIF).
• DES device - follow similar guidelines.
• Bypass the device with MLC surface mount devices and thinly separated power and ground planes with low
inductance feeds.
• High current returns should have a separate path with a width proportional to the amount of current carried to
minimize any resulting IR effects.

Eco Plan - The planned eco-friendly classification: Pb-Free (RoHS), Pb-Free (RoHS Exempt), or Green (RoHS & no Sb/Br) - please check http://www.ti.com/productcontent for the latest availability
information and additional product content details.
TBD: The Pb-Free/Green conversion plan has not been defined.
Pb-Free (RoHS): TI's terms "Lead-Free" or "Pb-Free" mean semiconductor products that are compatible with the current RoHS requirements for all 6 substances, including the requirement that
lead not exceed 0.1% by weight in homogeneous materials. Where designed to be soldered at high temperatures, TI Pb-Free products are suitable for use in specified lead-free processes.
Pb-Free (RoHS Exempt): This component has a RoHS exemption for either 1) lead-based flip-chip solder bumps used between the die and package, or 2) lead-based die adhesive used between
the die and leadframe. The component is otherwise considered Pb-Free (RoHS compatible) as defined above.
Green (RoHS & no Sb/Br): TI defines "Green" to mean Pb-Free (RoHS compatible), and free of Bromine (Br) and Antimony (Sb) based flame retardants (Br or Sb do not exceed 0.1% by weight
in homogeneous material)
(3)
MSL, Peak Temp. -- The Moisture Sensitivity Level rating according to the JEDEC industry standard classifications, and peak solder temperature.

Multiple Top-Side Markings will be inside parentheses. Only one Top-Side Marking contained in parentheses and separated by a "~" will appear on a device. If a line is indented then it is a
continuation of the previous line and the two combined represent the entire Top-Side Marking for that device.

IMPORTANT NOTICE
Texas Instruments Incorporated and its subsidiaries (TI) reserve the right to make corrections, enhancements, improvements and other
changes to its semiconductor products and services per JESD46, latest issue, and to discontinue any product or service per JESD48, latest
issue. Buyers should obtain the latest relevant information before placing orders and should verify that such information is current and
complete. All semiconductor products (also referred to herein as “components”) are sold subject to TI’s terms and conditions of sale
supplied at the time of order acknowledgment.
TI warrants performance of its components to the specifications applicable at the time of sale, in accordance with the warranty in TI’s terms
and conditions of sale of semiconductor products. Testing and other quality control techniques are used to the extent TI deems necessary
to support this warranty. Except where mandated by applicable law, testing of all parameters of each component is not necessarily
performed.
TI assumes no liability for applications assistance or the design of Buyers’ products. Buyers are responsible for their products and
applications using TI components. To minimize the risks associated with Buyers’ products and applications, Buyers should provide
adequate design and operating safeguards.
TI does not warrant or represent that any license, either express or implied, is granted under any patent right, copyright, mask work right, or
other intellectual property right relating to any combination, machine, or process in which TI components or services are used. Information
published by TI regarding third-party products or services does not constitute a license to use such products or services or a warranty or
endorsement thereof. Use of such information may require a license from a third party under the patents or other intellectual property of the
third party, or a license from TI under the patents or other intellectual property of TI.
Reproduction of significant portions of TI information in TI data books or data sheets is permissible only if reproduction is without alteration
and is accompanied by all associated warranties, conditions, limitations, and notices. TI is not responsible or liable for such altered
documentation. Information of third parties may be subject to additional restrictions.
Resale of TI components or services with statements different from or beyond the parameters stated by TI for that component or service
voids all express and any implied warranties for the associated TI component or service and is an unfair and deceptive business practice.
TI is not responsible or liable for any such statements.
Buyer acknowledges and agrees that it is solely responsible for compliance with all legal, regulatory and safety-related requirements
concerning its products, and any use of TI components in its applications, notwithstanding any applications-related information or support
that may be provided by TI. Buyer represents and agrees that it has all the necessary expertise to create and implement safeguards which
anticipate dangerous consequences of failures, monitor failures and their consequences, lessen the likelihood of failures that might cause
harm and take appropriate remedial actions. Buyer will fully indemnify TI and its representatives against any damages arising out of the use
of any TI components in safety-critical applications.
In some cases, TI components may be promoted specifically to facilitate safety-related applications. With such components, TI’s goal is to
help enable customers to design and create their own end-product solutions that meet applicable functional safety standards and
requirements. Nonetheless, such components are subject to these terms.
No TI components are authorized for use in FDA Class III (or similar life-critical medical equipment) unless authorized officers of the parties
have executed a special agreement specifically governing such use.
Only those TI components which TI has specifically designated as military grade or “enhanced plastic” are designed and intended for use in
military/aerospace applications or environments. Buyer acknowledges and agrees that any military or aerospace use of TI components
which have not been so designated is solely at the Buyer's risk, and that Buyer is solely responsible for compliance with all legal and
regulatory requirements in connection with such use.
TI has specifically designated certain components as meeting ISO/TS16949 requirements, mainly for automotive use. In any case of use of
non-designated products, TI will not be responsible for any failure to meet ISO/TS16949.
