Abstract
Description
乙太網路已變為一種在區域網路上傳送資訊之普遍方法。乙太網路係為用以闡述連結層與實體層通訊標準之一常用術語。在實體層處,乙太網路常常利用10-BaseT、100-BaseT、1000BaseT或10GbaseT等各種標準在雙絞纜線上進行通訊。亦可利用HDBaseT標準及雙絞纜線來傳送乙太網路。HDBaseT亦能夠在傳統雙絞纜線(通常為Cat5e或Cat6纜線)上傳送音訊訊號及視訊訊號以及電源訊號及通用串列匯流排(universal serial bus;usb)訊號。然而,控制訊號之傳送傳統上需要一其他纜線。此會引起一個纜線斷裂而另一纜線仍然完好之問題:舉例而言,控制纜線斷裂,但視訊纜線仍然完好。利用多個類型之纜線會在具有多個通道之設施中引起問題:載送控制訊號之纜線可能會被錯誤地與錯誤之乙太網路纜線關聯於一起。 Ethernet has become a common way to transmit information over a local area network. Ethernet is a common term used to describe the communication between the link layer and the physical layer. At the physical layer, Ethernet often communicates over twisted pair cables using various standards such as 10-BaseT, 100-BaseT, 1000BaseT, or 10GbaseT. The HDBaseT standard and twisted pair cable can also be used to transmit Ethernet. HDBaseT is also capable of transmitting audio and video signals as well as power signals and universal serial bus (usb) signals over traditional twisted pair cables (usually Cat5e or Cat6 cables). However, the transmission of control signals traditionally requires an additional cable. This can cause one cable to break and the other cable to remain intact: for example, the control cable is broken, but the video cable is still intact. The use of multiple types of cables can cause problems in facilities with multiple channels: cables carrying control signals may be incorrectly associated with the wrong Ethernet cable.
甚至在先前技術通訊系統係在同一纜線上傳達視訊訊號與控制訊號二者之情形下,此等系統(例如由Valens晶片供電之HDBaseT系統)亦要求使接收系統與傳送系統二者完全啟動並運行。因此,於利用HDBaseT在一電腦與一顯示器之間進行通訊之一顯示系統中,該顯示器與該電腦二 者必須皆被接通電源。然而,顯示器經常不被接通電源,因此先前技術系統並不能夠對顯示器進行遠端接通或控制。使二個系統被不斷地接通電源以便於傳送及接收控制訊號係相當耗電的。 Even in the case where the prior art communication system communicates both the video signal and the control signal on the same cable, such systems (such as the HDBaseT system powered by the Valens chip) also require that both the receiving system and the transmitting system be fully activated and operational. . Therefore, in a display system using HDBaseT to communicate between a computer and a display, the display and the computer 2 Both must be powered on. However, displays are often not powered up, so prior art systems were not able to remotely turn on or control the display. Keeping the two systems powered up continuously to transmit and receive control signals is quite power intensive.

To simplify the invention, specific examples of various components and configurations are set forth below. Of course, these are merely examples and are not intended to be limiting. In addition, the present invention may repeat reference numerals and/or letters in various examples. This repetition is for the sake of simplicity and clarity and does not in itself determine one of the various embodiments and/or configurations described.
本發明提供一種顯示系統及一種在雙絞纜線(例如,結合HDBaseT通訊所使用之纜線)上傳送控制資料之方法。在本詳細說明中,術語「轉接器」係指一外部顯示器伺服器鑰(dongle)、一內部伺服器鑰、一顯示器中之一控制器卡,或者被安裝或連接至一顯示器中之一控制器卡的一子卡。一圖形卡與一轉接器通訊,該轉接器與一顯示器通訊。該圖形 卡係結合一電腦而使用。該圖形卡與該轉接器結合會使得電腦系統能夠藉由該轉接器將控制訊號傳送至一顯示器。例如利用消費型電子產品控制(「Consumer Electronics Control;CEC」)協定,含有圖形卡之主機系統可在一邊帶(side-band)訊號上向與轉接器通訊之一顯示器發送控制訊號,該邊帶訊號不需要使該顯示器被接通電源。該等控制訊號係為電性疊加於通訊訊號(在HDBaseT中,為脈衝振幅調變(「Pulse Amplitude Modulation;PAM」)訊號)上之差動訊號,該等通訊訊號充當一邊帶訊號。利用在各單獨線對上傳送之差動訊號,對控制訊號之雜訊與干擾影響得以最小化。 The present invention provides a display system and a method of transmitting control data over a twisted pair cable (e.g., a cable used in conjunction with HDBaseT communications). In the detailed description, the term "adapter" refers to an external display server dongle, an internal server key, a controller card in a display, or is mounted or connected to one of the displays. A daughter card of the controller card. A graphics card communicates with an adapter that communicates with a display. The graphic The card is used in conjunction with a computer. The combination of the graphics card and the adapter enables the computer system to transmit control signals to a display via the adapter. For example, using the "Consumer Electronics Control (CEC)" protocol, a host system containing a graphics card can send a control signal to a display communicating with the adapter on a side-band signal. The signal does not need to be powered on. The control signals are electrically superimposed on the communication signals (in the HDBaseT, the differential signals on the Pulse Amplitude Modulation (PAM) signal), and the communication signals act as side signals. The use of differential signals transmitted on separate pairs minimizes the effects of noise and interference on the control signals.

As shown in FIG. 1, a display system 100 is provided. The display system 100 includes a graphics card 110, a display 160, and a display adapter 140. The graphics card 110 can be inserted into a motherboard (not shown) of a personal computer (PC) by, for example, a peripheral component interconnect interface (PCI Express Interface) 111. The graphics card 110 can include a graphics processing unit ("GPU") 112, a video converter 114, an audio/video ("audio/video (A/V)" transmitter 116, a transformer 118, and a The RJ45 connector 120, a memory 122 and a controller 124. Controller 124 is coupled to a serial port, such as a universal serial port (USB port) 126. The graphics processing unit 112 is coupled to a video converter 114 (eg, a display port to a High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) converter). For example, the graphics processing unit 112 provides video data to the video converter 114 via a display interface. The display system is a digital display interface developed by the Video Electronics Standards Association (VESA) and is mainly used to connect a video source to a computer display. However, the display port can also be used to carry audio data. Universal serial bus data and other forms of information.
替代實施例不包含一圖形處理單元112,而是在顯示埠轉高清晰度多媒體介面轉換器114處接收一顯示埠訊號、或者完全繞過顯示埠轉高清晰度多媒體介面轉換器114並在傳送器116處接收一高清晰度多媒體介面訊號。 An alternate embodiment does not include a graphics processing unit 112, but instead receives a display signal at the display high definition multimedia interface converter 114, or bypasses the display high definition multimedia interface converter 114 altogether and transmits Receiver 116 receives a high definition multimedia interface signal.
視訊轉換器114之輸出被連接至音訊/視訊傳送器116,並被連接至一擴充顯示器辨識資料(Extended Display Identification Data;EDID)(電可抹除可程式化唯讀記憶體(Electrically Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory;EEPROM))122。視訊轉換器114接收並藉由一高清晰度多媒體介面向音訊/視訊傳送器116輸出視訊資料。音訊/視訊傳送器116更被連接至變壓器118,並傳送音訊/視訊訊號。音訊/視訊傳送器及音訊/視訊接收器之現有技術實例係為:利用HDBaseT標準之Valens晶片組及使用基於IP之標準系統之Aptovision BlueRiver晶片組。熟習此項技術者在閱讀本發明後將瞭解,具有其他標準之其他晶片組亦可用作音訊/視訊傳送器116。該音訊/視訊訊號可係為HDBaseT。HDBaseT係為一種用於使用一標準連接器(RJ45)、經由一常見類別纜線(可使用普通Cat5,但Cat6e或更高類別纜線會達成更長所及範圍)來傳送未壓縮高清晰度視訊訊號、音訊訊號、電源訊號、家庭網路連結訊號、乙太網路訊號、通用串列匯流排訊號及某些控制訊號的消費型電子與商業連接標準。可看到的是,為對控制訊號使用Valens或Aptovision系統,所有系統皆須被開啟電源。可經由長度最高達100米或甚至更長之類別6a纜線或更高類別纜線、使用區域網路連接所常用類型之8P8C模組化連接器來傳送HDBaseT。變壓器118被設計及製造成符合適當標準,例如HDBaseT標準。 The output of video converter 114 is coupled to audio/video transmitter 116 and is coupled to an Extended Display Identification Data (EDID) (Electrically Erasable Programmable Read) -Only Memory; EEPROM)) 122. The video converter 114 receives and outputs video data to the audio/video transmitter 116 via a high definition multimedia medium. The audio/video transmitter 116 is further connected to the transformer 118 and transmits audio/video signals. Prior art examples of audio/video transmitters and audio/video receivers are: Valens chipsets using the HDBaseT standard and Aptovision BlueRiver chipsets using IP-based standard systems. Those skilled in the art will appreciate upon reading the present invention that other chipsets having other standards can also be used as the audio/video transmitter 116. The audio/video signal can be HDBaseT. HDBaseT is an uncompressed high definition video transmission using a standard connector (RJ45) via a common category of cables (normal Cat5 can be used, but Cat6e or higher cables will reach a longer range) Signals, audio signals, power signals, home network connection signals, Ethernet signals, universal serial bus signals, and consumer electronic and commercial connection standards for certain control signals. It can be seen that in order to use the Valens or Aptovision system for control signals, all systems must be powered on. HDBaseT can be delivered via a Category 6a cable or higher category cable up to 100 meters in length or even longer, using an 8P8C modular connector of the type commonly used for area network connections. Transformer 118 is designed and manufactured to comply with appropriate standards, such as the HDBaseT standard.
來自音訊/視訊傳送器116之視訊資料係利用RJ45連接器120 而被發送至一區域網路130,例如乙太網路。舉例而言,HDBaseT藉由雙絞線而支援乙太網路之100Mbit/s版本,此稱為100BASE-T。此可提供網際網路存取、或者使電視機、立體聲設備、電腦及其他裝置能夠彼此進行通訊並存取在區域網路上所儲存之多媒體內容,包含視訊、圖像及音樂。 The video data from the audio/video transmitter 116 utilizes the RJ45 connector 120 It is sent to a regional network 130, such as an Ethernet network. For example, HDBaseT supports the 100Mbit/s version of Ethernet over twisted pair. This is called 100BASE-T. This provides Internet access, or enables televisions, stereos, computers, and other devices to communicate with each other and access multimedia content stored on a local area network, including video, images, and music.
控制器124被連接至擴充顯示器辨識資料(電可抹除可程式化唯讀記憶體)122並被連接至變壓器118之二個側。控制器124可係為一數位訊號處理器、一處理器、一微處理器或一單晶片微電腦(microcomputer on a chip)。在某些實施例中,控制器124及控制器148皆係為低功率微處理器。控制器124經由邊帶通訊向通訊轉接器140上之一控制器148傳送控制資訊及從控制器148接收控制資訊。可利用消費型電子產品控制標準在新穎之差動訊號上傳送此控制資訊,該等差動訊號被疊加於在纜線130上發生之脈衝振幅調變通訊上。下文參照第2圖來闡述關於此種新穎電路之更多細節。在此種控制通訊發生時,與轉接器140通訊之顯示器160不需要被接通電源。 The controller 124 is coupled to the extended display identification data (electrically erasable programmable read only memory) 122 and is coupled to the two sides of the transformer 118. The controller 124 can be a digital signal processor, a processor, a microprocessor or a microcomputer on a chip. In some embodiments, controller 124 and controller 148 are both low power microprocessors. The controller 124 transmits control information to one of the controllers 148 on the communication adapter 140 via sideband communication and receives control information from the controller 148. The control information can be transmitted on the novel differential signal using the consumer electronics control standard, and the differential signals are superimposed on the pulse amplitude modulation communication occurring on the cable 130. Further details regarding such novel circuits are set forth below with reference to FIG. When such control communication occurs, the display 160 in communication with the adapter 140 need not be powered on.
顯示器轉接器140包含一RJ45連接器142、一變壓器144、一音訊/視訊接收器146及控制器148。變壓器144被設計及製造成符合適當標準,例如HDBaseT標準。音訊/視訊接收器146利用RJ45連接器142及區域網路130而接收來自音訊/視訊傳送器116之視訊資料。 Display adapter 140 includes an RJ45 connector 142, a transformer 144, an audio/video receiver 146, and a controller 148. Transformer 144 is designed and manufactured to comply with appropriate standards, such as the HDBaseT standard. The audio/video receiver 146 receives the video material from the audio/video transmitter 116 using the RJ45 connector 142 and the regional network 130.
顯示器160藉由一高清晰度多媒體介面而被連接至顯示器轉接器140。即使顯示器160被關斷電源,為該顯示器160儲存一擴充顯示器辨識資料之一記憶體162(例如電可抹除可程式化唯讀記憶體)亦藉由該高清晰度多媒體介面被供電。控制器148可係為一數位訊號處理器、一處理器、一微處理器或一單晶片微電腦。顯示器轉接器140之控制器148與圖形卡110之控制器124通訊,以便於在顯示器162與圖形卡110之間傳遞控制訊號。 Display 160 is coupled to display adapter 140 by a high definition multimedia interface. Even if the display 160 is powered off, a memory 162 (e.g., electrically erasable programmable read only memory) for storing a display identification data for the display 160 is also powered by the high definition multimedia interface. Controller 148 can be a digital signal processor, a processor, a microprocessor or a single-chip microcomputer. The controller 148 of the display adapter 140 communicates with the controller 124 of the graphics card 110 to facilitate the transfer of control signals between the display 162 and the graphics card 110.
由於圖形卡控制器124與轉接器控制器148通訊,因此主機電腦可藉由串列埠126有效地向顯示器160發出命令或請求。舉例而言,控制器124及148可協作以利用消費型電子產品控制協定向顯示器160發出命令。利用消費型電子產品控制協定,該主機電腦可發出例如欲使複數個顯示器接通或關斷電源、調整對比度或亮度或調整色彩之命令。亦可使用消費型電子產品控制協定自顯示器查詢資訊,例如顯示器之型號、序列號及製造日期。 Since the graphics card controller 124 is in communication with the adapter controller 148, the host computer can effectively issue commands or requests to the display 160 via the serial port 126. For example, controllers 124 and 148 can cooperate to issue commands to display 160 using a consumer electronic product control protocol. Using a consumer electronics control protocol, the host computer can issue commands such as turning a power on or off for multiple displays, adjusting contrast or brightness, or adjusting color. Information can also be queried from the display using a consumer electronics control protocol, such as the model number, serial number and date of manufacture of the display.
第2圖係為根據某些實施例,傳送電路之更詳細電工圖。此圖揭露一單個通道。控制器124利用單端通用異步接收器/傳送器(Universal Asynchronous Receiver/Transmitter;UART)傳送器(transmitter;TX)及接收器(receiver;RX)訊號與一UART-RS485轉換器212進行通訊。UART-RS485轉換器212在差動傳送器215處將TX自一單端UART訊號轉換成位於二個導線上之一差動訊號,且在差動接收器220處將傳入之RS485二導線訊號轉換成一單個UART訊號。因利用一二導線訊號而存在共模雜訊排斥(common mode noise rejection)。一旦訊號已被差動化,便利用變壓器118之共模將該訊號置於雙絞纜線上。在此實例性圖中,傳送訊號分別被置於線圈A之中心抽頭及線圈D之中心抽頭上。所接收訊號係分別自線圈B之中心抽頭及線圈C之中心抽頭被接收。線圈A、B、C及D之外側抽頭含有通訊訊號,例如HDBaseT脈衝振幅調變訊號。此乃因圖形卡110處之功率位準及地可不同於轉接器140處之功率位準及地。變壓器118及144提供電流隔離(galvanic isolation)。 Figure 2 is a more detailed electrical diagram of the transmission circuit in accordance with some embodiments. This figure reveals a single channel. The controller 124 communicates with a UART-RS485 converter 212 using a single-ended Universal Asynchronous Receiver/Transmitter (UART) transmitter (transmitter; TX) and receiver (RX) signals. The UART-RS485 converter 212 converts the TX from a single-ended UART signal to a differential signal on the two conductors at the differential transmitter 215, and the incoming RS485 two-wire signal is transmitted at the differential receiver 220. Convert to a single UART signal. There is common mode noise rejection due to the use of one or two wire signals. Once the signal has been differential, it is convenient to place the signal on the twisted pair cable using the common mode of the transformer 118. In this example diagram, the transmit signals are placed on the center tap of coil A and the center tap of coil D, respectively. The received signals are received from the center tap of coil B and the center tap of coil C, respectively. The outer taps of coils A, B, C and D contain communication signals, such as HDBaseT pulse amplitude modulation signals. This is because the power level and ground at the graphics card 110 can be different from the power level and ground at the adapter 140. Transformers 118 and 144 provide galvanic isolation.
+12伏之電源供應器235進入線圈A之中心抽頭中,且電源供應器之負側進入線圈B之中心抽頭中。因此,電源係在變壓器之共模上傳 送。當然,可使用任一電壓。該電源係在雙絞纜線上被傳送至顯示器側。在顯示器側,電源係自各線圈之中心抽頭被擷取並進入至DC-DC隔離轉換器210,以在轉接器140側為需要電源之任一者提供電源。該電源供應器被嚴格保持於例如12伏,且隨著在雙絞線上所載送之脈衝振幅調變訊號而略微變化。因此,電源係在圖形卡110處以例如12伏被注入,且電源由轉接器140提取。 The +12 volt power supply 235 enters the center tap of coil A, and the negative side of the power supply enters the center tap of coil B. Therefore, the power supply is uploaded in the common mode of the transformer. give away. Of course, any voltage can be used. The power source is transmitted to the display side on a twisted pair cable. On the display side, power is drawn from the center tap of each coil and into the DC-DC isolation converter 210 to provide power to either of the power supplies on the adapter 140 side. The power supply is kept strictly for example at 12 volts and varies slightly with the pulse amplitude modulation signal carried on the twisted pair. Therefore, the power source is injected at the graphics card 110 at, for example, 12 volts, and the power source is extracted by the adapter 140.
轉接器控制器148具有與先前段落中所述之組態類似之一組態。轉接器控制器148亦利用UART單端傳送(TX)及接收器(RX)UART訊號與UART-RS485轉換器222進行通訊。UART-RS485轉換器222在差動傳送器230處將TX自單端UART訊號轉換成位於二個導線上之一差動訊號,且在差動接收器225處將傳入之RS485二導線訊號轉換成一單個UART訊號。因利用一二導線訊號而存在共模雜訊排斥。一旦訊號已被差動化,便利用變壓器144之共模將該訊號置於雙絞纜線上。在此實例性圖中,接收訊號係分別自線圈A之中心抽頭及線圈D之中心抽頭被接收。傳送訊號係分別自線圈B之中心抽頭及線圈C之中心抽頭被傳送。線圈A、B、C及D之外側抽頭含有通訊訊號,例如HDBaseT脈衝振幅調變訊號。 Adapter controller 148 has one configuration similar to that described in the previous paragraph. Adapter controller 148 also communicates with UART-RS485 converter 222 using UART single-ended transmit (TX) and receiver (RX) UART signals. The UART-RS485 converter 222 converts the TX from the single-ended UART signal to a differential signal located on the two wires at the differential transmitter 230, and converts the incoming RS485 two-wire signal at the differential receiver 225. Make a single UART signal. There is common mode noise rejection due to the use of one or two wire signals. Once the signal has been differential, it is convenient to place the signal on the twisted pair cable using the common mode of transformer 144. In this example diagram, the received signals are received from the center tap of coil A and the center tap of coil D, respectively. The transmission signals are transmitted from the center tap of the coil B and the center tap of the coil C, respectively. The outer taps of coils A, B, C and D contain communication signals, such as HDBaseT pulse amplitude modulation signals.
在二個側上使用隔離電容器來將每一側上之電路與另一側上之電路隔離開。偏壓電路240及250在原本浮動之接收器差動電路上提供電位。在一實例性實施例中,三個電阻器其中之每一者皆係為100,000歐姆。 An isolation capacitor is used on both sides to isolate the circuitry on each side from the circuitry on the other side. Bias circuits 240 and 250 provide a potential on the originally floating receiver differential circuit. In an exemplary embodiment, each of the three resistors is 100,000 ohms.
因此,上述系統獨特地使用變壓器之共模,以將邊帶控制訊號自一圖形卡傳達至一轉接器。此等訊號被疊加於置於雙絞纜線上之標準通訊訊號上。結合上述電源供應器系統來利用邊帶通訊,即使顯示系統被關斷電源,亦可傳送及接收控制訊號。位於變壓器之主側上且顯示1.8伏之 電源在系統被關斷電源時可係為0伏,但變壓器次側上之差動訊號仍將相同地工作。此外,通往變壓器次側之共模且顯示12伏之電源在系統被關斷電源時可係為0伏,但疊加於此等訊號上之差動訊號將繼續以一不同偏壓位準運行。 Therefore, the above system uniquely uses the common mode of the transformer to communicate the sideband control signals from a graphics card to an adapter. These signals are superimposed on a standard communication signal placed on a twisted pair cable. In combination with the above power supply system to utilize sideband communication, the control signal can be transmitted and received even if the display system is powered off. Located on the main side of the transformer and showing 1.8 volts The power supply can be 0 volts when the system is powered down, but the differential signal on the secondary side of the transformer will still operate the same. In addition, the common mode to the secondary side of the transformer and the 12 volt supply can be 0 volts when the system is powered down, but the differential signal superimposed on these signals will continue to operate at a different bias level. .
