DisplayPort 2 : 1 multiplexer

11. Application information

11.1 Special considerations

Certain cable or dongle misplug scenarios make it possible for a 5 V input condition to

occur on pins AUX+ and AUX

−, as well as HPD_IN. When AUX+ and AUX− are

connected through a minimum of 2.2 k

Ω each, the CBTL04DP211 will sink current but will

not be damaged. Similarly, HPD_IN may be connected to 5 V via at least a 1 k

Ω resistor.

(Correct functional operation to specification is not expected in these scenarios.) The

latter also prevents the HPD_OUT output from loading down the system HPD signal when

power to the CBTL04DP211 is off.
