DESCRIPTION
The LMH0344 3 Gbps HD/SD SDI Adaptive Cable
Equalizer is designed to equalize data transmitted
over cable (or any media with similar dispersive loss
characteristics). The equalizer operates over a wide
range of data rates from 125 Mbps to 2.97 Gbps and
supports SMPTE 424M, SMPTE 292M, SMPTE
344M, and SMPTE 259M.
The LMH0344 implements DC restoration to correctly
handle pathological data conditions. The equalizer
may be driven in either a single ended or differential
configuration.
Additional features include separate carrier detect
and output mute pins which may be tied together to
mute the output when no signal is present. A
programmable mute reference is provided to mute the
output at a selectable level of signal degradation.
For applications which use the RGBα data patterns,
the LMH0394 cable equalizer will provide better
performance.
The device is available in two space–saving
packages: a 4 X 4 mm 16-pin WQFN and even more
space-efficient 3 x 3 mm 25-ball CS-BGA package.
APPLICATIONS
• SMPTE 424M, SMPTE 292M, SMPTE 344M, and
SMPTE 259M Serial Digital Interfaces
• Serial Digital Data Equalization and Reception
• Data Recovery Equalization
