For non-frame buffer designs, the DisplayPort receiver core requires the generation of a video stream using the M and N values within the Main Stream Attributes to reconstruct an accurate stream clock. The DisplayPort Receiver core places this information on dedicated signals and provides an update flag to signal a change in these values. The following figure shows how to use the M and N values from the core to generate a clock. See section 2.2.3 of the DisplayPort Standard v1.2a for more details.
Recommended: The AMD MMCM
is not accurate enough to be used to regenerate the necessary clock for non-frame buffer
design. You need to use an external PLL that meets the requirements of the DisplayPort
Standard. See section 2.2.3 of the DisplayPort Standard
v1.2a for more details.
