Table 2–21
summarizes the SDI video output interface pin assignments, signal names,
and functions.
The cable equalizer supports operation at 270 Mbit SD, 1.5 Gbit HD, and 3.0 Gbit
dual-link HD modes. Control signals are allowed for bypassing or disabling the
device, as well as a carrier detect or auto-mute signal interface.
Table 2–22
lists the cable equalizer lengths.
Figure 2–7
is an excerpt from the LMH0384SQ cable equalizer data sheet that shows
the SDI cable equalizer. On this development board, the output is a single-ended
output, with the negative channel driving a load local to the board.
