Display Connector Configurations

The NVIDIA DriveOS™ 7.0 automotive platform has multiple Display DP output connectors on boards.

The Ferrix (P3960) reference platform, has four DP connectors where one output connector is a native DP connector, and the other three are serializer DP connectors.

Customer boards may also have mix of native DP and serializer DP connectors. Prior to the NVIDIA DriveOS™ 7.0 release, on the T264 platform, you could use either native DP connector or serializer DP connectors.

Default Configuration

On Ferrix boards, the bind_parition command for the board decides which connectors to enable. The default bind partition command - bind_partitions -b p3960-10-sw01 linux only enables the Native DP connector.
