NSC LMH0344

LMH0344
3 Gbps HD/SD SDI Adaptive Cable Equalizer
General Description
Features
The LMH0344 3 Gbps HD/SD SDI Adaptive Cable Equalizer
is designed to equalize data transmitted over cable (or any
media with similar dispersive loss characteristics). The equalizer operates over a wide range of data rates from 143 Mbps
to 2.97 Gbps and supports SMPTE 424M, SMPTE 292M,
SMPTE 344M, and SMPTE 259M.
The LMH0344 implements DC restoration to correctly handle
pathological data conditions. The equalizer may be driven in
either a single ended or differential configuration.
Additional features include separate carrier detect and output
mute pins which may be tied together to mute the output when
no signal is present. A programmable mute reference is provided to mute the output at a selectable level of signal degradation.

Note 1: "Absolute Maximum Ratings" are those parameter values beyond which the life and operation of the device cannot be guaranteed. The stating herein of
these maximums shall not be construed to imply that the device can or should be operated at or beyond these values. The table of "Electrical Characteristics"
specifies acceptable device operating conditions.
Note 2: Current flow into device pins is defined as positive. Current flow out of device pins is defined as negative. All voltages are stated referenced to
VEE = 0 Volts.
Note 3: Typical values are stated for VCC = +3.3V and TA = +25°C.
Note 4: Specification is guaranteed by characterization.
Note 5: This specification is for 0m cable only.
Note 6: Based on characterization data over the full range of recommended operating conditions of the device. Jitter is measured in accordance with SMPTE
RP 184, SMPTE RP 192, and the applicable serial data transmission standard: SMPTE 424M, SMPTE 292M, or SMPTE 259M.
Note 7: Measured with Pseudo Matrix Pathological test signal.
Note 8: Input return loss is dependent on board design. The LMH0344 exceeds this specification on the SD344 evaluation board with a return loss network
consisting of an 8.2 nH inductor in parallel with a 0.5 pF capacitor in parallel with the 75Ω series resistor on the input.

Device Operation
BLOCK DESCRIPTION
The Equalizer Filter block is a multi-stage adaptive filter. If
Bypass is high, the equalizer filter is disabled.
The DC Restoration / Level Control block receives the differential signals from the equalizer filter block. This block
incorporates a self-biasing DC restoration circuit to fully DC
restore the signals. If Bypass is high, this function is disabled.
The signals before and after the DC Restoration / Level Control block are used to generate the Automatic Equalization
Control (AEC) signal. This control signal sets the gain and
bandwidth of the equalizer filter. The loop response in the
AEC block is controlled by an external 1µF capacitor placed
across the AEC+ and AEC- pins.
The Carrier Detect / Mute block generates the carrier detect
signal and controls the mute function of the output. This block
utilizes the CD and MUTE signals along with Mute Reference
(MUTEREF).
The Output Driver produces SDO and SDO.
CARRIER DETECT (CD) AND MUTE
Carrier detect CD indicates if a valid signal is present at the
LMH0344 input. If MUTEREF is used, the carrier detect threshold will be altered accordingly. CD provides a high voltage
when no signal is present at the LMH0344 input. CD is low
when a valid input signal is detected.
MUTE can be used to manually mute or enable SDO and
SDO. Applying a high input to MUTE will mute the LMH0344
outputs by forcing the output to a logic zero. Applying a low
input will force the outputs to be active.
CD and MUTE may be tied together to automatically mute the
output when no input signal is present.
INPUT INTERFACING
The LMH0344 accepts either differential or single-ended input. The input must be AC coupled. Transformer coupling is
not supported.
The LMH0344 correctly handles equalizer pathological signals for standard definition and high definition serial digital
video, as described in SMPTE RP 178 and RP 198, respectively.
MUTE REFERENCE (MUTEREF)
The mute reference sets the threshold for CD and (with CD
tied to MUTE) determines the amount of cable to equalize
before automatically muting the outputs. This is set by applying a voltage inversely proportional to the length of cable to
equalize. The applied voltage must be greater than the
MUTEREF floating voltage (typically 1.3V) in order to change
the CD threshold. As the applied MUTEREF voltage is increased, the amount of cable that can be equalized before
OUTPUT INTERFACING
The SDO and SDO outputs are internally loaded with 50Ω.
They produce a 750 mVP-P differential output, or a
375 mVP-P single-ended output.
