Description
The GS1574 is a second-generation high-speed bipolar
integrated circuit designed to equalize and restore
signals received over 75Ω co-axial cable.
The GS1574 is designed to support SMPTE 292M,
SMPTE 344M and SMPTE 259M, and is optimized for
performance at 270Mb/s and 1.485Gb/s.
The GS1574 features DC restoration to compensate for
the DC content of SMPTE pathological test patterns.
A voltage programmable mute threshold (MCLADJ) is
included to allow muting of the GS1574 output when an
approximate selected cable length is reached for
SMPTE 259M signals. This feature allows the GS1574
to distinguish between low amplitude SD-SDI signals
and noise at the input of the device. The serial digital
outputs of the GS1574 may be forced to a mute state by
applying a voltage to the MUTE pin.
Power consumption is typically 270mW using a 3.3V
power supply. The GS1574 is lead-free, and the
encapsulation compound does not contain halogenated
flame retardant.
