VESA has recently updated the Embedded DisplayPort Standard to Version 1.1a while drawing up requirements for the Video Interface to the LCD Panel in notebooks as well as various embedded applications.
eDP version 1.1a includes further definition on display authentication for protected video content, addresses Sink device AUX channel interrupt requests, and makes enhancements to the 4-lane connector used for 3D display applications. eDP is based on the VESA DisplayPort 1.1a Standard. The DisplayPort Standard is oriented toward external applications with emphasis on interoperability between system vendors and interconnection cables. Newer PC chipsets and GPUs designed for notebook PCs support both DisplayPort and eDP from the same video port connections, enabling configuration options to the system integrator.
If you’re interested in the Embedded DisplayPort (eDP) Standard, that is available free of charge here. [Press Release]
