Description
The GS2974A is a high-speed BiCMOS integrated circuit
designed to equalize and restore signals received over 75Ω
co-axial cable.
The GS2974A is designed to support SMPTE 424M, SMPTE
292M and SMPTE 259M, and is optimized for performance
at 1.485Gb/s and 2.97Gb/s.
The GS2974A features DC restoration to compensate for
the DC content of SMPTE pathological test patterns.
A voltage programmable mute threshold (MCLADJ),
applicable for SD mode (refer to Section 4.3), is included to
allow muting of the GS2974A output when an approximate
selected cable length is reached for SMPTE 259M signals.
This feature allows the GS2974A to distinguish between
low amplitude SD-SDI signals and noise at the input of the
device. The serial digital outputs of the GS2974A may be
forced to a mute state by applying a voltage to the MUTE
pin.
Power consumption is typically 215mW using a 3.3V
power supply. The GS2974A is lead-free, and the
encapsulation compound does not contain halogenated
flame retardant.
This component and all homogeneous subcomponents are
RoHS compliant.
