[SI-LIST] 答复: 答复: 答复: HDMI Frequency Failing RE Test by 7dB!!!!

One suggestion:
The most possible way to confirm if the return current through shielding line 
cause EMI issue (as mentioned by Vend +7db above FCC limitation) is that:

1.       Open the shielding line of each TMDS signal pair in ONE END, prefer in 
own board. 

2.       Keep HDMI_DDC ground for functional operation.

3.       Measure the EMI in lab with same environment.

If no return current through shielding line, the measurement will be as same as 
before.

If some return current through HDMI_DDC ground, EMI will be much bigger than 
7db above FCC limitation.

Dear Zhenwei Wang,

 

By calculations it can be concluded that intra-pair skew of a differential 
pseudo random bit stream will only result in a low level wide band EMI without 
spectral lines. 

 

In case of non equal rise and fall times this will lead to spectral lines that 
are 6 dB lower for PRBS compared to clock.

If the intra-pair skew is too much bigger, the cross-point of  Data+ and Data- 
will not stand on the virtual ground. Then DC return current will flow through 
a ground line. You know every line has inductance. So the noise can be get with 
equation V=Lx(did/dot). The power of return current could be radiate through 
long cable. 

         Maybe the reason I said was not the dominant part. We needs 
information to deny it.

Skew should be related to stand-wave antenna resonance.

Hi Boris,
       Actually, I am just guessing. EMI issue has three key features: 
Aggressor, Coupling trace and Receiver. Based Vine's description, the HDMI 
cable acted as the coupling trace in his design. But when the same cable 
connected Sony Blue ray disc and TV, the radiation disappear(Vend did not say 
that directly). So I guessed that in one or two or three TMDS differential 
pair, some shielding line worked as the antenna to radiate the bit clock 
frequency.
       BTW, if have a HDMI SI report(especially intra-pair skew or cross-point 
of TMDS), the guessing will be clear. I know the feeling when EMC test failed, 
much more pressure. So good luck to Vend.

Dear Zhenwei Wang,

Assuming the data is pseudo random, do you think that inter and intra pair skew 
will cause clock related spectral lines. I'm would think that EMI will look 
like wide band noise. Only in case of different rise and fall times for intra 
pair signals spectral lines may appear.

Hi Vinod,
       I went through the email about your issue. Yes, if the pixel clock is 
74.25Mhz, the data rate is ten times of pixel clock, equal 742.5Mhz. 
Conceptually, TMDS signal have a virtual AC ground. So there is no DC current 
requirement through ground pin. My suggestion: you should check the parameter 
"inter pair skew" of each differential data line.

Ö÷Ìâ: [SI-LIST] HDMI Frequency Failing RE Test by 7dB!!!!

Hi All,

I am designing a board with HDMI input and HDMI output. I am facing EMI issue 
at 742.5MHz (failing FCC limits by 7dB) when running 1080p30 on both Input and 
output HDMI i.e. BLu ray player connected to HDMI input connector of my board 
is giving out data at 1080p30 and HDMI out of my board is connected to TV which 
is also 1080p30 content. So i am unable to find out how is 742.5MHz coming out 
as radiation as it is 10th Harmonic of pixel clock  74.25MHz!!!!!!!. I am not 
facing any issues with other harmonics except for this. So i am totally 
confused on how to go about debugging this issue.

Note: All the signals are routed on top layer without vias and all signals have 
solid ground plane reference. The blu ray player and TV used, is tested for 
radiation and no significant levels seen.

Regards
Vinod A H
