HDCP 2.x Transmitter IP

Design IP

Overview

SmartDV’s HDCP 2.x Transmitter IP is a silicon-proven solution built to deliver secure transmission of ultra-high-definition content across HDMI, DisplayPort (DP), and Embedded DisplayPort (eDP) interfaces. Fully compliant with HDCP 2.x specifications, it incorporates advanced security features such as session key exchange, locality checks, and digital rights enforcement to protect premium content in high-bandwidth environments.

Designed for flexibility, the IP core is highly configurable to meet specific design requirements, supporting both ASIC and FPGA implementations while optimizing for area, power, and performance. It is the ideal solution for content protection in 4K/8K displays, streaming devices, infotainment systems, and next-generation SoCs.

Benefits

Complete HDCP 2.x Transmitter Implementation – Supports full HDCP 2.2 and 2.3 Transmitter functionality for secure content encryption and authenticated transmission of UHD/8K video and audio data.
Broad Interface Compatibility – Designed for HDMI, DisplayPort, MHL, and USB Type-C transmitters, ensuring interoperability across modern multimedia systems.
Secure Authentication and Session Management – Implements RSA-based authentication, Diffie–Hellman key exchange, and locality check to establish trusted connections with HDCP 2.x receivers.
High-Performance AES Encryption – Utilizes AES-128 encryption in CTR mode for real-time protection of high-bandwidth digital content.
Flexible Key Infrastructure – Supports device keys, session key derivation, and certificate-based validation for secure and renewable authentication flows.
Revocation and Renewability Support – Handles System Renewability Messages (SRM) and revocation list updates to maintain compliance with licensing authorities.
Optimized System Integration – Low-latency, area-efficient implementation compatible with HDMI/DisplayPort TX controllers and PHYs, interfacing through AXI, AHB, or APB bus standards.
