Transition Minimized Differential Signalling
Okay kiddo, have you ever heard of a computer? Well, inside a computer there are a lot of little parts that talk to each other to make the computer work. One way they talk to each other is by sending electrical signals through a wire.
Now, when we send electrical signals through a wire, there's something called noise that can happen. This noise can make it hard for the parts in the computer to understand each other and communicate properly.
To help fix this problem, engineers came up with something called "transition minimized differential signalling" or TMDS for short.
Basically, what TMDS does is it sends electrical signals down two wires instead of just one. But here's the cool part - instead of sending the same signal down both wires, it sends two slightly different signals. This helps cancel out any noise that might happen along the way.
And, to make sure that the computer parts can still understand these slightly different signals, TMDS uses some clever tricks to make sure they're still recognizable as 1s and 0s - the language that computers use to talk to each other.
So, in short, TMDS is a way to make sure that the electrical signals inside a computer can talk to each other without getting confused by any noise that might happen along the way.
