Abstract: A system and a method for configuring communication between a source device and a sink device using captured configuration data are described. The source device communicates with a repeater, which modifies received data to facilitate transmission to the sink device, using a communication channel. The communication channel transmits video and/or audio data from the source device to the sink device. An auxiliary communication channel is used to communicate configuration data between the source device and sink device to optimize transmission and receipt of data through the communication channel. The repeater is coupled to the auxiliary communication channel and passively captures configuration data from the auxiliary communication channel. The repeater uses a subset of the captured configuration data (e.g., data rate, voltage swing, pre-emphasis, etc.) to modify how the repeater transmits data to the sink device using the communication channel.

Abstract: A method and system for reading data from a link buffer for output to a display device. A link buffer read period is determined which balances a write throughput over a source video frame time and a read throughput over a display frame time. A threshold is determined indicating a required number of pixels stored in a link buffer prior to starting to read data out of the link buffer for a next line display. A read signal is issued when the link buffer read period ends and the threshold is reached.

Abstract: A fastening structure of a display panel includes a base plate, first sidewalls, a frame connected to the base plate and surrounded by the first sidewalls, and stiffeners. The first sidewalls are connected together and connected to the base plate. The frame accommodates the display panel. The stiffeners having a trapezoid-shaped structure or a triangle-shaped structure connect the base plate to the frame. The stiffeners are located between the frame and the first sidewalls. A gap respectively exists between the stiffeners and the first sidewalls. Therefore, the stiffeners enhance the strength between the base plate and the frame accommodating the display panel. Due to the gap respectively existing between the stiffeners and the first sidewalls, when the fastening structure is impacted, a force transmitted to the frame is reduced by the gap to effectively protect the display panel.
