FLEXIBLE IMPLEMENTATION OF SERIAL BUS SUPPORT OVER DISPLAY INTERFACE

摘要

Systems and methods are used to configure a communication channel. A source device can dynamically map Display Port lanes to support both display devices and USB3.0 devices. A method for configuring a communication channel includes detecting a device connection event indicating a change to a configuration of the communication channel in response to a branch device of the communication channel satisfying a dynamic configuration capability criteria indicating that the communication channel is reconfigurable. Configuration parameters of a sink device in the communication channel are identified. The communication channel is reconfigured to carry a source data stream to the sink device based on the configuration parameters.
