How to configure Display Port to HDMI

Hi,

I have a request for HDMI output on ultra96 v2 board. But failed to use 'miniDP to HDMI ’ cable . it seems only DP to DP is supported.
Any idea for this?
Thanks a lot for any help!

Best Regards,
Santa

Please use a Active rather than a Passive DP to HDMI converter.
An active DisplayPort adapter converts both single-mode and dual-mode output, so your connected video source doesn ’t have to support DP++. The adapter performs the conversion from DisplayPort to VGA, DVI or HDMI instead of the source device.

I can confirm an active converter works.

Hi @ric96

Thank you very much! :smiley: I’ll try it.

Can you be specific about what DP-to-HDMI cable you are using? Is it one of the cables listed here?:

Hi,

Thanks for your reference. But not one of them before.

Did you try Parade PS176 chipset? I found it doesn’t work on this chipset.
