Description
The GS2988 is a high-speed BiCMOS integrated circuit
designed to drive one to two 75Ω coaxial cables.
The GS2988 may drive data rates up to 2.97Gb/s and
provides two selectable slew rates in order to achieve
compliance to SMPTE 424M, SMPTE 292M and SMPTE
259M.
The GS2988 accepts industry-standard differential input
levels including LVPECL and CML.
Input trace equalization compensates for up to 10 inches of
FR4 trace loss while in HD and 3G modes. This feature can
be disabled using the EQ_EN pin.
The DISABLE pin powers-down the entire device.
The GS2988 features adjustable output swing using an
external bias resistor. The single-ended output swing is
adjustable from 500mVpp to 1800mVpp.
An output signal presence function, the OSP pin, indicates
whether an active signal is present at the output of the
GS2988.
The GS2988 can be powered from either a 3.3V or a 2.5V
supply. Power consumption is typically 110mW using a
2.5V power supply.
The GS2988 is Pb-free, and the encapsulation compound
does not contain halogenated flame retardant.
This component and all homogeneous subcomponents are
RoHS compliant.
