GS2964

The GS2964 is designed to support SMPTE 424M, SMPTE292M and SMPTE 259M, and is optimized for performance at 270Mb/s, 1.485Gb/s and 2.97Gb/s.

The GS2964 features DC restoration to compensate for the DC content of SMPTE pathological test patterns.

The Carrier Detect output pin (CD) indicates whether a valid input signal has been detected. GS2964 can be connected directly to the MUTE pin to mute the output on loss of carrier. A voltage programmable threshold, which can be changed via the SQ_ADJ pin, forces CD high when the input signal amplitude falls below the threshold. GS2964 allows the GS2964 to distinguish between low-amplitude SDI signals and noise at the input of the device.

The equalizing and DC restore stages are disengaged when the BYPASS pin is HIGH. No equalization occurs in Bypass mode.

The differential outputs of GS2964 can be DC-coupled to Gennum 3.3V cable drivers and reclockers and to other industry-standard 3.3V CML logic.

The GS2964 is footprint and drop-in compatible with existing GS2974 designs, with no additional application changes required.

The device is available in a 16-pin, 4mm x 4mm QFN package.

Power consumption of the GS2964 is typically 215mW.

The GS2964 is Pb-free, and the encapsulation compound does not contain halogenated flame retardant.

This component and all homogeneous subcomponents are RoHS compliant.
