In our system ( HDMI Sink) , there is a back drive from the HDMI lines to the HDMI receiver power supply rails prior to the power supply ramp-up. I am looking for a solution where in the HDMI data lines could be isolated by a GPIO control and that solution should not have any ESD clamp to power rails to avoid back drive. Any suggestions? Please note: 1. This is a custom cabling / interface where in the HDMI data + power is fed from the source, 2. There is no control over the Source / Cabling.
