SEMTECH COMPLETES ACQUISITION OF GENNUM - Press Release

How does acquisition affect Gennum products website?
Soon we will be moving the product content and contact information from this site to Semtech.com. In the meantime, you will still have access to product, support, and sales information from this site.

Once all the content is moved, we will provide you with direct links to product, sales and support information. For now, please continue to use this website as your source for Gennum product information as you do normally. To learn more about Semtech and our products visit the Semtech.com website.

GS1560A / GS1561

Overview

The GS1560A/GS1561 is a reclocking deserializer.

When used in conjunction with the GS1524 Automatic Cable Equalizer and the GO1555/GO1525* Voltage Controlled Oscillator, a receive solution can be realized for HD-SD, SD-SDI and DVB-ASI applications. In addition to reclocking and deserializing the input data stream, the GS1560A/GS1561 performs NRZI-to-NRZ decoding, descrambling as per SMPTE 259M-C/292M, and word alignment when operating in SMPTE mode. When operating in DVB-ASI mode, the device will word align the data to K28.5 sync characters and 8b/10b decode the received stream.

Two serial digital input buffers are provided with a 2x1 multiplexer to allow the device to select from one of two serial digital input signals.

The integrated reclocker features a very wide Input Jitter Tolerance of ±0.3 UI (total 0.6 UI), a rapid asynchronous lock time, and full compliance with DVB-ASI data streams.

The GS1560A includes an integrated cable driver is for serial input loop-through applications. It can be selected to output either buffered or reclocked data. The cable driver also features an output mute on loss of signal, high impedance mode, adjustable signal swing, and automatic dual slew-rate selection depending on HD/SD operational requirements.

The GS1560A/GS1561 also includes a range of data processing functions such as error detection and correction, automatic standards detection, and EDH support. The device can also detect and extract SMPTE 352M payload identifier packets and independently identify the received video standard. This information is read from internal registers via the host interface port.

Line-based CRC errors, line number errors, TRS errors, EDH CRC errors and ancillary data checksum errors can all be detected.

Finally, the device can correct detected errors and insert new TRS ID words, line-based CRC words, ancillary data checksum words, EDH CRC words, and line numbers. Illegal code re-mapping is also available. All processing functions may be individually enabled or disabled via host interface control.

The GS1560A/GS1561 is Pb-free and the encapsulation compound does not contain halogenated flame retardant.

* For new designs use GO1555
