Pin Configuration

  • Raspberry Pi Official Micro HDMI to Standard HDMI Adapter Pinout Documentation
  • The Raspberry Pi Official Micro HDMI to Standard HDMI Adapter is a compact adapter designed to convert the micro HDMI output of the Raspberry Pi single-board computer to a standard HDMI connector, allowing users to connect their Raspberry Pi to a variety of displays and devices. The adapter features a micro HDMI (Type D) connector on one end and a standard HDMI (Type A) connector on the other.
  • Micro HDMI (Type D) Connector Pinout:
  • The micro HDMI connector has 19 pins, which are arranged in three rows. Here's a breakdown of each pin:
  • Row 1:
  • 1. Shield: This pin is connected to the grounding shield of the HDMI cable, providing a return path for the high-speed differential signals.
  • 2. Hot Plug Detect (HPD): This pin is used to detect when a device is connected or disconnected from the HDMI port.
  • 3. CONFIG: This pin is used for configuration and is typically connected to a pulldown resistor on the Raspberry Pi.
  • Row 2:
  • 4. D2+: Positive differential data signal ( Lane 2)
  • 5. D2-: Negative differential data signal (Lane 2)
  • 6. D1+: Positive differential data signal (Lane 1)
  • 7. D1-: Negative differential data signal (Lane 1)
  • 8. D0+: Positive differential data signal (Lane 0)
  • 9. D0-: Negative differential data signal (Lane 0)
  • Row 3:
  • 10. CLK+: Positive differential clock signal
  • 11. CLK-: Negative differential clock signal
  • 12. CEC: Consumer Electronics Control (CEC) signal, used for controlling devices connected to the HDMI port.
  • 13. SCL: IC clock signal (used for EDID and other auxiliary data)
  • 14. SDA: IC data signal (used for EDID and other auxiliary data)
  • 15. GND: Ground connection for the HDMI signals
  • 16. 5V: Power supply (typically +5V) for the HDMI device
  • 17. GND: Ground connection for the power supply
  • 18. Reserved: Unused pin (do not connect)
  • 19. Shield: This pin is connected to the grounding shield of the HDMI cable, providing a return path for the high-speed differential signals.
  • Standard HDMI (Type A) Connector Pinout:
  • The standard HDMI connector has 19 pins, which are arranged in three rows. The pinout is identical to the micro HDMI connector, with the same signals and pin assignments.
  • Connecting the Pins:
  • To connect the Raspberry Pi Official Micro HDMI to Standard HDMI Adapter, follow these steps:
  • 1. Connect the micro HDMI connector to the Raspberry Pi's micro HDMI port, ensuring that the pins are aligned properly.
  • 2. Connect the standard HDMI connector to the desired display or device, such as a TV or monitor.
  • 3. The adapter will convert the micro HDMI signal from the Raspberry Pi to a standard HDMI signal, allowing you to connect to devices with standard HDMI ports.
  • When connecting the adapter, ensure that the pin 1 (Shield) on the micro HDMI connector is aligned with pin 1 on the standard HDMI connector. This will ensure proper signal transmission and grounding.
  • Note: The Raspberry Pi Official Micro HDMI to Standard HDMI Adapter is a passive adapter, and it does not require any external power supply. The power is drawn from the Raspberry Pi's micro HDMI port.

5. Power on the Raspberry Pi and display device.
6. The HDMI signal should now be extended to the display device, allowing you to place the Raspberry Pi at a longer distance from the display.
Code Examples
There are no specific code examples required for this adapter, as it is a passive device that does not require any programming or configuration. Simply connect the adapter as described in the examples above, and the Raspberry Pi will output a standard HDMI signal.
However, if you need to configure the HDMI output settings of your Raspberry Pi, you can modify the `config.txt` file to set the HDMI mode, resolution, and other parameters. For example:
```bash
sudo nano /boot/config.txt
```
Add the following lines to set the HDMI mode to 1080p:
```
hdmi_mode=16
hdmi_group=2
```
Save and exit the editor, then reboot the Raspberry Pi to apply the changes.
Note: The `config.txt` file is specific to the Raspberry Pi, and the exact syntax and options may vary depending on the Raspberry Pi model and firmware version. Consult the official Raspberry Pi documentation for more information.
