3 AJA D10C2 10-bit Serial Digital to Composite/Component Converter User Manual — Introduction
Introduction
The D10C2 converts Component Serial Digital (SDI) to analog Composite or
Component formats. The D10C2 provides 4 analog outputs. In addition, two
equalized and re-clocked SDI loop-through outputs are provided. The D10C2
automatically configures to 525 or 625 line component digital inputs and outputs
analog NTSC (525 line input), PAL (625 line input) or component as configured by
the dip switches. The D10C2 encodes the full dynamic range of input component
video—values below black and above white are not clipped. In the NTSC mode, the
7.5 IRE pedestal can be disabled by dip switch selection.
Features
• High quality 10-bit encoding, 4 times oversampling
• SDI Input, SMPTE 259M 270MB
• Two loop-through SDI outputs (SMPTE 259M) (equalized and re-clocked
copies of the SDI input)
• Component and Composite analog outputs
• RGB, YPbPr, or Betacam Component formats
• Composite NTSC or PAL
• Configurable pedestal and blanking
• Digital noise reduction
• External DIP switch user interface for configuration
