9061 Functional Description
9061 Functional Description
Figure 1-1 shows a functional block diagram of the 9061. The 9061 format
converter also includes a full 16-channel audio embedder/de-embedder, a
12-bit analog-to-digital video converter, an 8-channel, 24-bit balanced
analog-to-digital audio converter, and a full video frame synchronizer. The
9061 also handles AFD code detection and processing, timecode support,
closed captioning support, and transfer of Dolby
®
metadata.
As such, the 9061 is highly suited as a universal input processing card with
comprehensive audio and video support. The video source can be either an
HD/SD-SDI input or an HD/SD analog video input. The video can be up,
down, or cross-converted to a different format, and aspect ratio can be
corrected to provide proper output aspect.
Note:
Some of the functions described below are available only when using the
DashBoard™, or Cobalt
®
OGCP-9000 or OGCP-9000/CC Control Panels
user interfaces. Refer to User Control Interface (p. 1-20) for user interface
descriptions.

ticular Rear I/O Module used with the 9061. Refer to 9061 Rear I/O Modules
(p. 1-22) for more information.
