Types Of HDMI Interface

HDMI Types

As I told you all, there are 5 types of HDMI in our tech. They call as Type A, B , C, D ,E. Lets Explain Them..

Type A

Nineteen pins, with bandwidth to support all SDTV, EDTV and HDTV modes.The male connector outside dimensions are 13.9 mm × 4.45 mm and the female connector inside dimensions are 14 mm × 4.55 mm.Type A is electrically compatible with single-link DVI-D.

Type B

   This connector’s dimensions are 21.2 mm × 4.45 mm and it has 29 pins and can carry six differential pairs instead of three, for use with very high-resolution future displays such as 3,840×2,400. Type B is electrically compatible with dual-link DVI-D, but has not yet been used in any products.However, the use of the extra three differential pairs is reserved as of 1.3 specification.

Type C

A Mini connector defined in the HDMI 1.3 specification, it is intended for portable devices, smaller than the type A plug connector and dimensions are 10.42 mm × 2.42 mm, Also has the same 19-pin configuration. The differences are that all positive signals of the differential pairs are swapped with their corresponding shield, The type C Mini connector can be connected to a type A connector using a type A-to-type C cable.

Type D

A Micro connector defined in the HDMI 1.4 specification keeps the standard 19 pins of types A and C but shrinks the connector size to something resembling a micro-USB connector. The type D connector is 2.8 mm × 6.4 mm, For comparison, a micro-USB connector is 1.8 mm × 6.85 mm and a USB Type A connector is 4.5 mm × 11.5 mm.

Type E

Automotive Connection System defined in HDMI 1.4 specification.
