LMH0070

The LMH0070 SDI Serializers are part of National's family of FPGA-Attach SER/DES products supporting 5-bit LVDS interfaces with FPGAs. An FPGA Host will format data with supplied IP such that the output of the LMH0340 is compliant with the requirements of DVB-ASI, SMPTE 259M-C, SMPTE 292M and SMPTE 424M standards. See for details on which Standards are supported per device.

The interface between the SER (Serializer) and the FPGA consists of a 5 bit wide LVDS data bus, an LVDS clock and an SMBus interface. The LMH0070 SER devices include an integrated cable driver which is fully compliant with all of the SMPTE specifications listed above. The LMH0070 has a CML output driver that can drive a differential transmission line or interface to a cable driver.

The FPGA-Attach SER/DES family is supported by a suite of IP which allows the design engineer to quickly develop video applications using the SER/DES products. The SER is packaged in a physically small 48 pin LLP package.
