General description

The CBTL06GP213 is a six-channel (‘hex’) multiplexer for DisplayPort, HDMI and

PCI Express applications at Generation 2 (‘Gen2’) speeds. It provides four differential

channels capable of 1 : 2 switching or 2 : 1 multiplexing bidirectional, AC-coupled

PCI Express, DisplayPort signals, USB3 SuperSpeed or DC coupled TMDS signals, using

high-bandwidth pass-gate technology. It provides support for high common-mode/bias

voltage on the high-speed differential channels. Additionally, it provides for

switching/multiplexing of the Hot Plug Detect signal as well as the AUX or DDC (Display

Data Channel) signals, for a total of six channels on the display side. The AUX and DDC

channels provide a four-position multiplexer such that an additional level of multiplexing

can be accomplished when AUX and DDC I/Os are on separate pins of the display source

device.

The CBTL06GP213 is designed for Gen2 speeds, supporting 5.0 Gbit/s for PCI Express,

5.4 Gbit/s for DisplayPort or 6 Gbit/s for HDMI 2.0. It consumes 490 A current (typical) in

operational mode and provides a shutdown function to support battery-powered

applications.

A typical application of CBTL06GP213 is on applications where one of two GPU display

sources must be selected to connect to a display sink device or connector. A controller

chip selects which path to use by setting a select signal HIGH or LOW. Due to the

non-directional nature of the signal paths (which use high-bandwidth pass gate

technology), the CBTL06GP213 can also be used in the reverse topology, for example, to

connect one display source device to one of two display sink devices or connectors.
