Mobile High-Definition Link (MHL) is an industry standard for a mobile audio/video interface that allows one to connect mobile phones, tablets, and other portable consumer electronics (CE) devices to high-definition televisions (HDTVs) and audio receivers. MHL-enabled products include adapters, automotive accessories, AV receivers, Blu-ray Disc players, cables, DTVs, media sticks, monitors, projectors, smartphones, tablets, TV accessories, and more. MHL is a consortium made up of major companies in the mobile and CE industries, including SONY, Nokia, Samsung, Silicon Image, and Toshiba.

History

Silicon Image, one of the founding companies of the HDMI standard, originally demonstrated a mobile interconnect at the January 2008 Consumer Electronics Show (CES), based on its transition-minimized differential signaling (TMDS) technology.[1] This interface was termed "Mobile High Definition Link" at the time of the demonstration, and is a direct precursor of the implementation announced by the MHL Consortium. The company is quoted as saying it did not ship that original technology in any volume, but used it as a way to get a working group started.[2]

The working group was announced in September 2009,[3] and the MHL Consortium founded in April 2010 by SONY, Nokia, Samsung, Silicon Image, and Toshiba. The MHL specification version 1.0 was released in June 2010 and May 2011 marked the first retail availability of MHL-enabled products.

An abridged version of the specification was made available for download on April 14, 2010.[4] MHL specification version 1.0 was released in June 2010.[5] The Compliance Test Specification (CTS) was announced on December 21, 2010.[6]

MHL announced in 2014 that more than half a billion MHL-capable products had been shipped since the standard was created.[7]

Overview

MHL was originally intended for mobile devices such as smartphones and tablets.

To better accommodate the needs of mobile devices, MHL differs from HDMI as follows.

  • Five wires in place of HDMI's nineteen, namely ground, power, control, and a differential pair for data. This permits a much lighter cable and a much smaller connector on the mobile device.
  • Whereas HDMI uses the power line to provide 5 volts from the source at 50 mA (0.25 W) for the purpose of awakening a sleeping sink, MHL uses it to provide that voltage from the sink at 900 mA (4.5 W) to maintain the state of charge of the source. This allows a mobile device with only one port for both charging and MHL to operate indefinitely without exhausting the battery, provided 4.5 W is sufficient. Devices needing more power from the port used for MHL may not be suitable candidates for MHL 2.0; MHL 3.0 raises the power requirement to 2 A (10 W).
  • Although MHL ports can be dedicated to MHL alone, the standard is designed to permit port sharing with the most commonly used ports.
  • A typical MHL source will be shared with USB 2.0 on a standard 5-pin micro-usb receptacle, which switches from USB to MHL when it recognizes an MHL-qualified sink detected on the control wire.
  • A typical MHL sink will be shared with HDMI on a standard 19-pin HDMI receptacle. The standard uses the same pins for power (pin 18) and ground (pins 5, 11, and 17), HDMI's Hot Plug detect (pin 19) for MHL control, and HDMI's Data0 channel (pins 7 and 9) for MHL's data.
  • Whereas HDMI transmits the three bytes of a pixel in parallel over three physically separate differential pairs along with a fourth pair for a clock, with a separate ground for each pair (pins 1-12), MHL transmits them sequentially over the one pair (7 and 9).
  • Whereas HDMI uses five wires to cater for HDMI-CEC (13), DDC (15 and 16), and HEC (14 and 19), MHL controls these functions with a single wire (CBUS).
  • In normal mode MHL supplies the same 24 bit color signal as HDMI, at a pixel clock rate of up to 75 MHz for MHL 2.0, sufficient for 1080i and 720p. Each of the three bytes is in a 10-bit frame whence at 75 MHz the data channel operates at 2.25 Gbit/s.
  • MHL 2.0 caters for 1080p with a PackedPixel mode utilizing only the first two of HDMI's three channels. This shrinks each pixel to 16 bits carried in two 10-bit frames. The pixel clock is doubled to 150 MHz and the data channel then operates at 3 Gbit/s.
  • MHL's serial signaling makes it incompatible with the three-channel parallel signaling of HDMI and DVI. Hence both ends of an MHL channel must implement the standard in full. In particular an MHL source cannot drive an ordinary HDMI or DVI display, though this limitation is easily overcome with an MHL dongle converting MHL to HDMI. An MHL source must be realized in hardware as the typical 5-pin USB 2.0 port on mobile devices is much too slow at 480 Mbit/s for a software-only implementation.

Versions

MHL 1 and MHL 2

  • The TV provides power to the connected device (5 V DC/500 mA with MHL 1.0, 5 V DC/900 mA with MHL 2.0).
  • Uses a single, thin cable to connect the mobile device to the TV.
  • The TV remote will control the connected device with guaranteed mixed manufacturer interoperability (CEC).[8] (Also see Silicon Image's press release about MHL on December 14, 2010). Note: The built-in Remote Control Protocol (RCP) function allows you to use the remote control of the TV to operate the MHL mobile device through TV’s Consumer Electronics Control (CEC) function.
  • 1080p uncompressed HD video.
  • 8 channel uncompressed audio (e.g., 7.1 surround sound).
  • Supports High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection (HDCP).
  • MHL is connection agnostic (i.e., not tied to a specific type of hardware connector). The first implementations used the 5-pin MHL-USB connector described below. Other proprietary and custom connections are also allowed.

MHL 3

On August 20, 2013, MHL announced its 3 specification to address the latest consumer requirements for connecting a mobile device to displays, marking major advancements in the areas of audio and video transmission over an MHL link. The first devices to include the specification are the Sony Xperia Tablet Z2 and the Sony Xperia Z2. At Mobile World Congress 2014 Silicon Image demoed MHL 3 powered by its SiI8620 transmitter chip. Features of the MHL 3.0 specification include:

  • 4K (Ultra HD): Support of 4K formats up to 3840 × 2160 at 30 Hz
  • Simultaneous high-speed data channel
  • Improved Remote Control Protocol (RCP) with new commands
  • HID support for peripherals such as a touch screen, keyboard and mouse
  • Higher power charging up to 10 W
  • Backward compatible with MHL 1 and MHL 2
  • Latest HDCP 2.2 content protection
  • Enhanced 7.1 surround sound with Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD
  • Connector agnostic – uses as few as five pins
  • Support for simultaneous multiple displays

superMHL 1.0

On January 6, 2015, MHL announced the superMHL 1.0 specification,[9][10][11] the next-generation of MHL technology for CE and mobile devices. Features of superMHL include:

  • Delivery of up to 8K 120fps video
  • Deep Color support up to 48-bit color depths
  • Wider color gamut to view content the way filmmakers intended
  • High-Dynamic Range (HDR) support to strike the perfect balance of bright spectral highlights along with shadow details
  • Immersive surround sound with support for object audio such as Dolby Atmos, DTS:X, 3D audio, and an audio-only mode
  • Advanced connectivity configurations to link multiple MHL devices together (TV, AVR, Blu-ray player) and control them via one remote
  • Power charging up to 40W
  • Content on multiple displays when connecting a single device
  • Backward compatible with MHL 1, MHL 2 and MHL 3
  • New reversible superMHL connector
  • Support for the MHL Alt Mode for the USB Type-C specification
  • HDCP 2.2

The superMHL standard makes use of one to six A/V lanes with each lane operating at 6Gbit/s. Four connectors have been detailed with their various numbers of A/V lanes supported in the standard:

  • micro-USB (one A/V lane)
  • HDMI Type-A (one A/V lane)
  • USB Type-C (one to four A/V lanes)
  • superMHL (one to six A/V lanes)

superMHL may also use a variety of source and sink connectors:

  • micro-USB (Source)
  • USB Type-C (Source or Sink)[12]
  • Proprietary connectors (Source)
  • HDMI Type-A (Sink)
  • superMHL connector (Source or Sink)

superMHL supports delivery of video up to 8K 120fps using 6 lanes (e.g. superMHL connector), 8K 60fps using 4 lanes (e.g. USB Type-C / superMHL connector) and 4K 60fps using 1 lane (e.g. micro-USB / HDMI Type-A / USB Type-C / superMHL connector).[12] The superMHL standard makes use of VESA's Display Stream Compression (DSC) standard version 1.1 to allow for 2.0x, 2.5x, or 3.0x compression. This allows a superMHL source-to-sink connection to transfer 108Gbit/s of visually lossless (mathematically lossy) data.

The following resolutions and frame rates are supported by the superMHL standard (other resolutions and frame rates may be supported):

  • 720×480p@59.94/60 Hz
  • 720×576@50 Hz
  • 1280×720p@50/59.94/60 Hz
  • 1920×1080i@50/59.94/60 Hz
  • 1920×1080p@50/59.94/60 Hz
  • 3840×2160@24/25/30/48/50/60 Hz (4K UHD)
  • 5120×2880@24/25/50/60 Hz (5K UHD)
  • 7680×4320@24/25/30/50/60/120 Hz (8K UHD)

The following pixel encodings and color spaces are supported by the superMHL standard:

  • RGB 4:4:4 pixel encoding
  • YCbCr 4:4:4 pixel encoding
  • YCbCr 4:2:2 pixel encoding
  • YCbCr 4:2:0 pixel encoding (4K resolution and above)
  • xvYCC
  • BT.2020 (8K and 4K UHD)
  • Rec.709
  • sYCC601
  • AdobeYCC601
  • AdobeRGB

The bandwidth efficiency of superMHL is considered superior to other display interfaces (e.g. HDMI, DisplayPort). Other interfaces needs around 10 Gbit/s bandwidth for supporting 4K 30fps (basic UHD) video, but superMHL supports 4K 60fps using only 6 Gbit/s. DisplayPort uses 32.4 Gbit/s to transmit 8K 30fps video, but superMHL delivers 8K 60fps using only 24 Gbit/s. The other display interfaces probably have to use an active cable to support bandwidth for higher resolution video. superMHL can still use a passive cable and deliver the better resolution video. This reduces the cost of the cable a lot. The superMHL connector is considered to be futuristic than the HDMI or DisplayPort connectors. superMHL connector supports more A/V lanes, it has more pins and it is reversible (like USB Type-C). superMHL connector supports future bandwidth expansion and it can deliver more power than other connectors. While USB Type-C is considered to be a small form factor connector, the superMHL connector has a form factor comparable to HDMI Type-A connector. This helps in easier connector and cable construction.

MHL Alternate Mode for USB Type-C

On November 17, 2014 - MHL, LLC released[13] MHL Alternate Mode for USB Type-C connector standard. This supports MHL 1, 2, 3 and superMHL specifications for delivery of audio, video, data, and power over USB Type-C port. The Alt Mode allows connecting MHL enabled source devices to MHL display devices through the USB Type-C port. USB Type-C port can be used on MHL source/display devices. All MHL/superMHL features are supported on MHL Alt Mode. MHL Alt Mode enables devices to support simultaneous MHL audio/video plus USB 2.0 and/or USB 3.1 Gen 1 or Gen 2 data and power charging over the USB Type-C connector.

Depending on the bandwidth requirement MHL Alt Mode can use variable number of TMDS channels/lanes, The Alt Mode allows delivery of video up to 4K 60fps using only 1 lane, 4K 120fps using 2 lanes or 8K 60fps using 4 lanes. MHL Alt Mode sends 1 to 4 TMDS channels over super-speed data pins and the (e)CBUS signal on 1 side-band pin of the USB Type-C connector. Compared to other USB Type-C Alt Modes, this takes less number of pins on the connector and delivers higher video resolutions and frame rates. Other than the usual functionality, bi-directional CBUS control-channel will be also used as the pixel clock for resolutions above 1080p 60fps. At a max pixel clock of 600 MHz, each of the TMDS channel will run at 6Gbit/s. When less than 4 TMDS channels are used, USB 3.1 will be supported, other wise USB 2.0 has to be used for data transfer. The USB Power Delivery (USB-PD) standard enables the devices to draw up to 100W power over USB Type-C port.

In common MHL Alt Mode implementations on mobile/tablet/laptops, the video from the GPU will be converted to MHL signal by using a MHL transmitter chip. Popular transmitter chips accepts video in MIPI (DSI/DPI) or HDMI format and covert it to MHL format. The USB Type-C port controller functions as a switch/mux which passes through native MHL signal to the external devices. The dock/display devices may use a MHL bridge chip to covert the MHL signal to HDMI signal format and pass it to the display sink. Some display devices has the capability to directly process the MHL signal on the display sink.

Comparison with SlimPort / Mobility DisplayPort (MyDP)

SlimPort is a proprietary alternative to MHL, based on the DisplayPort standard integrated into common microUSB ports and supports up to 1080p60 or 1080p30 with 3D content over HDMI 1.4 (up to 5.4 Gbit/s of bandwidth), in addition to support for DVI, VGA (up to 1920 x 1080 at 60 Hz), and DisplayPort.[15] Implementers of SlimPort may be subject to the MPEG-LA patent pool license for DisplayPort. On March 5, 2015, the MPEG LA announced their DisplayPort license, which is US$0.20 per DisplayPort product.

Connectors

Not all micro USB 2.0 ports are identical. Compare connectors for original Galaxy Note with the Note II.

Standard Micro-USB-to-HDMI adapter (five-pin)

The first implementations use the most popular mobile connection (micro USB) and the most popular TV connection (HDMI). Other than the physical connectors, no USB or HDMI technology is being used. Exclusively MHL signaling is used through the connectors and over the cable.

Samsung Micro-USB-to-HDMI adapter and tip (eleven-pin)

The Samsung Galaxy S III, and later Galaxy Note II and Galaxy S4, use an 11-pin connector and the six additional connector pins in order to achieve functional improvements over the 5-pin design (like simultaneous USB-OTG use[16]). However, if consumers have a standard MHL-to-HDMI adapter all they need to purchase is a tip. With the launch of the Samsung Galaxy S4, Samsung also released a Samsung 2.0 smart adapter with a built-in 11-pin connector. The first generation Samsung MHL 2.0 smart adapter released with the Galaxy S III requires external power and is able to work with HDMI TVs at 1080p at 24 Hz.[17] The second generation adapter released with the Galaxy S4 can output 1080p at 60 Hz and does not need external power.

MHL passive cable

Passive cables allow consumers to connect an MHL-enabled device directly to an MHL TV and do not require external power. Unlike older MHL adapters and cables, the passive cable simultaneously charges the cell phone battery while mirroring.

USB Type-C

Using MHL Alternate Mode, USB Type-C ports are used on MHL source or display devices. USB Type-C is a totally reversible connector. The USB Type-C connector is used on active devices like mobile/laptop docks, which converts it to other video formats (e.g. HDMI, DisplayPort, VGA, DVI). The USB Type-C connector is also used on passive cables with an HDMI/USB Type-C/superMHL connector on the other end.

superMHL (32-pin)

On January 6, 2015, MHL introduced the new reversible superMHL connector. This 32 pin connector can carry concurrent video, data and power charging all in a slim, consumer-friendly form factor. A reversible design means that consumers don't have to worry about the plug's orientation or the cable's direction.
