April 2006 LMH0044 SMPTE 292M / 259M Adaptive Cable Equalizer General Description Features The LMH0044 SMPTE 292M / 259M adaptive cable equalizer is a monolithic integrated circuit for equalizing 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 1.485 Gbps and supports SMPTE 292M, SMPTE 344M and SMPTE 259M. n SMPTE 292M, SMPTE 344M and SMPTE 259M compliant n Supports DVB-ASI at 270 Mbps n High data rates: 143 Mbps to 1.485 Gbps n Equalizes up to 140 meters of Belden 1694A at 1.485 Gbps or up to 350 meters of Belden 1694A at 270 Mbps n Manual bypass and output mute with a programmable threshold n Single-ended or differential input n 50Ω differential outputs n Single 3.3V supply operation n 208mW typical power consumption with 3.3V supply n Replaces the GS1574 and GS1574A The LMH0044 implements DC restoration to correctly handle pathological data conditions (DC restoration may be bypassed for low data rate applications). 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.

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: Specification is guaranteed by design. Note 6: The maximum input voltage swing assumes a nonstressing, DC-balance signal; specifically, the SMPTE-recommended color bar test signal. Pathological or other stressing signals may not be used. This specification is for 0m cable only. Note 7: Supply current depends on the amount of cable being equalized. The current is highest for short cable and decreases as the cable length is increased. Refer to Figures 1, 2. Note 8: Input return loss is dependent on board design. The LMH0044 meets this specification on the SD044 evaluation board from 5MHz to 1.5GHz. 3 www.national.com LMH0044 AC Electrical Characteristics LMH0044 Connection Diagram 20177003 16-Pin LLP Order Number LMH0044SQ See NS Package Number SQB16A Pin Descriptions Pin # Name Description 1 VEE Negative power supply (ground). 2 SDI Serial data true input. 3 SDI Serial data complement input. 4 VEE Negative power supply (ground). 5 AEC+ AEC loop filter external capacitor (1µF) positive connection. 6 AEC- AEC loop filter external capacitor (1µF) negative connection. 7 BYPASS Bypasses equalization and DC restoration when high.

If MUTEREF is used, the carrier detect threshold will be altered accordingly. CD provides a high voltage when no signal is present at the LMH0044 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 LMH0044 outputs. Applying a low input will force the outputs to be active. 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. CD and MUTE may be tied together to automatically mute the output when no input signal is present. INPUT INTERFACING The LMH0044 accepts either differential or single-ended input. The input must be AC coupled. Transformer coupling is not supported. The LMH0044 correctly handles equalizer pathological signals for standard definition and high definition serial digital video, as described in SMPTE RP 178 and RP 198, respectively. 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. 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. As the applied MUTEREF voltage is increased, the amount of cable that can be equalized before carrier detect is de-asserted and the outputs are muted is decreased. MUTEREF may be left unconnected for maximum equalization before muting. 5 www.national.com LMH0044 Application Information PCB LAYOUT RECOMMENDATIONS Please refer to the following Application Note on National’s website: AN-1372, “CLC034 PCB Layout Techniques.” The PCB layout techniques in the application note apply to the LMH0044 as well.

The current is highest for short cable and decreases as the cable length is increased.
