Reclocking has become important in maintaining overall system robustness. In addition, as processing is being integrated into more and more devices, reducing the overall jitter in a system is critical, given that many processing specific devices like FPGAs can have poor IJT. Performance leading reclockers such as the Semtech GS2985 can be utilized to increase overall system margin. The GS2965, GS2985, and GS2986 add input trace equalization and output signal de-emphasis, which provides additional flexibility to system designers. In addition, the serial control interface to these devices provide multiple communication methods. These devices also feature automatic slew rate control when used with Semtech's cable drivers for multiformat applications. The integrated 2:1 or 4:1 signal selection mux at the input of the Semtech reclockers allows them to be utilized in architectures that require switching matrices and failover redundancy. This reduces the need for additional signal path components and their associated jitter. MULTI-RATE Semtech reclockers offer robust multi-standard operation from 270Mb/s to 2970Mb/s and are SMPTE 424M, 292M and 259M-C compliant.

Integrated Transceiver FPGAs High-End FPGA Virtex 5,Stratix II GX VCXO SDI Input Transmitter SDI Output Customer Logic Gennum: CompleteProprietary Solution Transmitter/Receiver EQ Receiver Designers have the choice of selecting components from different vendors. But when it comes to designs with serializers and deserializers, they must first choose an architecture. In implementing a design with a serializer and/ or deserializer, there are 3 architectural choices: Semtech's complete serializer/deserializer solution architecture, an integrated-transceiver FPGA architecture and an FPGAhelper architecture. Let's explore these three options with an assessment of the following key parameters: jitter, power consumption, integration (component/features), time-tomarket, system size and cost.

At sizes up to 290 inputs and 290 outputs, these are the largest asynchronous, fully non-blocking crosspoint switches in the industry. Multiple Strobes Temperature Sensors Eight update enable strobe pins allow the crosspoint to be partitioned into independently updatable blocks. This is useful in multi-format environments when the switches need to occur at different points in time. Each update strobe can be assigned on a per-output basis, enabling maximum flexibility. Four on-chip temperature sensors monitor the junction temperature of the chip. This enables automated control of fan speed and power down sequences to meet environmental demands for energy conservation. Low Power When compared to competitive solutions, Semtech crosspoints provide industry leading per channel power consumption, with less than 1W consumed in stand-by mode. System power can be further reduced by taking advantage of the crosspoint's high input sensitivity while using Semtech equalizers configured for minimum output swing levels. Data Rate Margin Supporting data rates up to 3.5Gb/s means that there is significant margin for video systems operating up to 2.97Gb/s. This margin also means the product can be used in XauiTM, DisplayPortTM and HDMI switching applications. Fully Independent Input and Output Channels Flexible Footprint All our crosspoints provide independent input trace equalization and output de-emphasis, which can compensate for over 50 inches of PCB trace loss. This provides higher signal integrity and lower jitter in designs utilizing long traces or passive splitting. In addition, with output swing configurable as low as 200mV, system power can be significantly reduced. All Semtech crosspoints are pin compatible, sharing the same control interface and register set. This allows a single platform design to be easily scaled to the necessary switch size with no re-work required in either hardware or software. Input Sensitivity To address losses typical in many router architectures, the Semtech crosspoint family provide for high input sensitivity, resulting in additional system margin. In addition, high input sensitivity facilitates better system optimization, including reduced swing on upstream drivers, providing substantial power savings. On-chip Pattern Generators and Eye Pattern Diagnostics Independent pattern generators and checkers can be used for testing signal paths on either the input or output side of the system. The pattern checker can be configured to check for bit errors using one of three PRBS patterns or any arbitrary pattern, important for evaluating system performance with video pathological signals. All crosspoint devices can check for bit errors at arbitrary phase offsets from the received data, and jitter margin can be determined by measurement of the horizontal eye opening. Applications Routers, multiviewers, production switchers, master control switchers and broadcast modular equipment.

Output jitter will typically be 20ps, which will guarantee 3Gb/s SDI compliance when used with a serializer. REDUCES JITTER TO MEET SMPTE SPECS Semtech clock generators can be genlocked to reference with a variable offset. On loss of reference, the video clocks will flywheel to maintain their frequency. GENERATES MULTIPLE CLOCKS FLEXIBLE I/O FREQUENCIES AND LEVELS 3 video clocks (2 single-ended and one differential), 3 singleended audio clocks, and 8 single-ended configurable timing signals can be generated. Video clocks up to 165MHz can be produced in order to support up to 3Gb/s SDI and UXGA. In addition, the GS4911B features crosslocking capability where HD timing can be generated from an SD reference, increasing design flexibility. SD (27MHz), and HD (74.25, 74.25/1.001, 148.5, 148.5/1.001MHz) frequencies can be input and output from the GS4915. The chip also has single-ended and differential inputs and outputs to facilitate interfacing with a variety of chips. INPUT STANDARD DETECTION If the input clock frequency is 74.25 or 74.25/1.001MHz, the GS4915 can double the output, providing a low jitter 148.5 or 148.5/1.001MHz output clock which can be used for HD-SDI and 3Gb/s SDI applications. FREQUENCY DOUBLER TO MEET 3Gb/s SDI REQUIREMENTS By supplying the clock generator with HSync, VSync and Fsync, the chip will determine if it matches one of 36 video or 16 graphics standards and will report the detected standard.
