        that pin 27 was meant to be SSRX- instead of SSTX-.</p>

        <pre wrap=""> between 1.8 and 3.3v, at the moment.  anything lower will need to be
negotiated in a FUTURE standard (and the "default" range of 1.8v to
3.3v will be respected, for older Housings.  that means SoCs will need
to have variable voltage power domains, but that's actually becoming
quite common.

        <pre wrap=""> please do NOT make the mistake of using VREFTTL as a *SUPPLY*
voltage.  most (complex-function) ICs have a VDD (digital supply
voltage) and a VCCIO.  the VCCIO is what you connect to the VREFTTL.
take a look at the SN75LVDS83b or the TFP401a for examples.

        <pre wrap=""> find another IC that meets the variable-voltage 1.8 to 3.3v CMOS
reference voltage or do level conversion.

          <pre wrap="">Would it be necessary do level shifting in advance (to be

        <pre wrap=""> yyep.  there's a number of ways to do it, dozens of ICs and circuits:
the TXS0104 is great because it supports both open drain and
push-push, you can use a MOSFET, or in some cases a straight diode
will do (in a really counter-intuitive way, but it works).  take a
look on the rk3288 schematic PDF, look for the HDMI page, you'll find
a suitable converter circuit using a MOSFET (and protection diode).
