LMH0341, LMH0041, LMH0071, LMH0051 3 Gbps, HD, SD, DVB-ASI SDI Deserializer with Loopthrough and LVDS Interface General Description Key Specifications The LMH0341/0041/0071/0051 SDI Deserializers are part of National’s family of FPGA-Attach SER/DES products supporting 5-bit LVDS interfaces with FPGAs. When paired with a host FPGA the LMH0341 automatically detects the incoming data rate and decodes the raw 5-bit data words compliant to any of the following standards: DVB-ASI, SMPTE 259M, SMPTE 292M, or SMPTE 424M. See Table 1 for details on which Standards are supported per device. The interface between the LMH0341 and the host FPGA consists of a 5-bit wide LVDS bus, an LVDS clock and an SMBus interface. No external VCOs or clocks are required. The LMH0341 CDR detects the frequency from the incoming data stream, generates a clean clock and transmits both clock and data to the host FPGA. The LMH0341, LMH0041 and LMH0071 include a serial reclocked loopthrough with integrated SMPTE compliant cable driver. Refer to table 1 for a complete listing of single channel deserializers offered in this family. The FPGA-Attach SER/DES product family is supported by a suite of IP which allows the design engineer to quickly develop video applications using the SER/DES products.

DEVICE OPERATION The DES is used in digital video signal origination equipment. It is intended to be operated in conjunction with an FPGA host which processes data received by the SER, and converts the five bit output data to an appropriate parallel video format — usually 10 or 20 bits wide. In most applications, the input data to the DES will be data compliant with DVB ASI, SMPTE 259M-C, SMPTE 292M or SMPTE 424M, and the decoding will be done by the IP provided by National Semiconductor or similar IP to result in a decoded output. National Semiconductor offers IP in source code format to perform the appropriate decoding of the data, as well as evaluation platforms to assist in the development of target applications. For more information please contact your local National Semiconductor Sales Office/Distributor LVDS OUTPUTS The DES has LVDS outputs, compatible with ANSI/TIA/ EIA-644. LVDS outputs expect to drive a 100Ω transmission line which is properly terminated at the host FPGA inputs. It is recommended that the PCB trace between the FPGA and the receiver be less than 25 cm. Longer PCB traces may introduce signal degradation as well as channel skew which could cause serialization errors. The LVDS outputs on the DES have a programmable output swing. The default condition is for the smaller size swing, in order to save power. If a larger amplitude output swing is desired, this can be effected through the use of register 0x27h LVDS OUTPUT TIMING The DES output timing, in it's default condition, is described in the LVDS Switching characteristics table. The user has the ability to adjust the LVDS output timing to make it easier to latch into the host FPGA if desired. This is done via register 0x28h where both the clock to data timing may be adjusted, as well as changing the RXCLK from being a DDR clock to a clock at the rate of DDR/2 POWER SUPPLIES The DES has several power supply pins, at 2.5V as well as 3.3V. It is important that these pins all be connected, and properly bypassed. Bypassing should consist of parallel 4.7μF and 0.1μF capacitors as a minimum, with a 0.1μF capacitor on each power pin. The device has a large contact in the center of the bottom of the package. This contact must be connected to the system GND as it is the major ground connection for the device. A 22 μF capacitor is required on the VDDPLL pin which is connected to the 3.3V rail Discrete bypassing is ineffective above 30 MHz to 50 MHz in power plane-based distribution systems. Above this frequency range, the intrinsic capacitance of the power-ground system can be used to provide additional RF bypassing. To make the best use of this, make certain that there are PCB layers dedicated to the Power supplies and to GND, and that they are placed next to each other to provide a distributed capacitance between power and GND. The DES will work best when powered from linear regulators. The output of linear regulators is generally cleaner with less noise than switching regulators. Output filtering and power system frequency compensation are generally simpler and more effective with linear regulators. Low dropout linear regulators are available which can usually operate from lower input voltages such as logic power supplies, thereby reducing regulator power dissipation. Cascading of low dropout regulators should not be done since this places the entire supply current load of both load systems on the first regulator in the cascade and increases its loading and thermal output. LOOP FILTER The DES has an internal PLL which is used to recover the embedded clock from the input data. The loop filter for this PLL has external components, and for optimum results in Serial Digital Interface applications, a capacitor and a resistor in series should be connected between pins 26 and 27 as shown in the typical interface circuit. DVB-ASI MODE DVB-ASI mode is enabled when the DVB-ASI pin is brought to a high state. When the DVB-ASI mode is enabled, an internal framer and 8b10b decoder is engaged such that the data appearing on RX0-RX3 will represent a nibble of the decoded 8b10b data. RX4 is an Idle character detect and can be used as an enable to allow the receiver to not write data into an external FIFO. RX4 is high if the data being presented on RX0-RX3 represents the idle character. The Most Significant Nibble of data is presented on the rising edge of RXCLK, and the least significant on the falling edge of RXCLK. SDI INPUT INTERFACING The device has two inputs, one of which is selected via a multiplexer with the RX_MUX_SEL pin. Whichever input is selected will be routed to the clock recovery portion of the deserializer, and once it is reclocked, the signal will be fed to the loopthrough outputs. Most SDI interfaces require an equalizer to meet performance requirements. For HD-SDI and SD-SDI applications, the LMH0044 is an ideal equalizer to use for this. The LMH0044 is packaged in a small compact package and the outputs can be connected directly to the RXIN inputs of the LMH0041. The LMH0344 is pin compatible with the LMH0044 and will support 3 Gbps data, making it an ideal choice to accompany the LMH0341. POWER UP The 3.3V power supply should be brought up before the 2.5V supply. The timing of the supply sequencing is not important. The device has a power on reset sequence which takes place once both power supplies are brought up. This sequence will reset all register contents to their default values, and will place the PLLs into link acquisition mode, attempting to lock on the RXIN0input. RESET There are three ways in which the device may be reset. There is an automatic reset which happens on power-up; there is a reset pin, which when brought low will reset the device, with normal operation resuming when the pin is driven high again. The third way to reset the device is a soft reset, implemented via a write to the reset register. This reset will put all of the register values back to their default values, except it will not www.national.com 10 30017207 30017206 FIGURE 5. Simplified SDI Output Circuit FIGURE 4. Simplified SDI Input Circuit JITTER MANAGEMENT SMPTE 424M (the 3 Gbps standard) relaxed the requirements of SDI transmitters from 0.2UI to 0.3UI, which means that the challenge of receiving these signals error free is very difficult. The parameter of importance to determine if the DES will be able to receive the signal error free is the Jitter Tolerance. Figure 8 shows the LMH0341 Jitter tolerance curve with a 2.97 Gbps input — any signal which has less jitter than what is on the upper curve of this figure will be able to be received by the DES. The lower line in the curve shows the SMPTE requirement for any receiver. There is a slight dip in the level at frequencies abive about 10MHz which is an artifact of the test equipment that was used to capture the data. Once the signal is received, the next concern as far as jitter goes is how much of the jitter that was on the input signal will be passed through to the RXCLK output. This is answered by the Jitter transfer characteristics. The Jitter transfer function is the ratio of the input jitter to the output jitter, measured as a function of frequency. The specification tables show two of the parameters related to this curve — δ is the jitter peaking and indicates what the maximum gain of the jitter is. Ideally δ is 0, but a lower number is better. If several devices are used in a system, and the frequency at which δ is maximum is the same for all of them, then the gains will multiply, and there is a risk that there will be excessive jitter accumulating at that frequency. The LMH0341 has very low Jitter peaking, so this should not be a concern. The other parameter of interest is λ which is the jitter transfer bandwidth. Jitter on the input at the frequency λ is attenuated by 3dB, and any jitter at frequencies greater than λ is attenuated by more than this. From a design standpoint, it means that you primarily only need to worry about the jitter at frequencies below λ. The LMH0341 adjusts it's loop bandwidth dependent on datarate, so for the lower datarates, it has a lower loop bandwidth.Figure 8 shows the jitter transfer curve of an LMH0341 with a 2.97 Gbps signal input, 0.5UI of input jitter, and nominal power supplies and temperature. SWITCHING SDI INPUTS When the input to the DES is switched from one source to another, either via the internal 2:1 multiplexor on the inputs, or via an external crosspoint switch, there are a variety of behaviors possible If the input switch is between two signals operating at the same datarate, then in most cases, the DES will not lose lock. There will be a small number of words with corrupted data as the PLL slews it's phase to match the new input signal. Under some circumstances (dependent on phase difference between the inputs, temperature, etc) it is possible that the PLL will lose lock, and then reacquire lock. This condition can be seen by monitoring the LOCK pin where a high going pulse will indicate a loss of lock condition. If a loss of lock happens, it will be for a time period of approximately 5ms before lock is reattained. In the invent that the switch on the input is between signals at different datarates — for example from a 270 Mbps signal to a 1.485 Gbps input, then the lock procedure is much more complex, and the lock time will be significantly longer. In either case, the IP that is processing the received signal will need to reestablish the proper framing of the words. SDI OUTPUT INTERFACING The serial loopthrough outputs provide low-skew complementary or differential signals. The output buffer is a current mode design, and as such has a high impedance output. To drive a 75Ω transmission line, a 75Ω resistor from each of the output pins to VDD2V5 should be connected. This resistor has two functions—it converts the current output to a voltage, which is used to drive the cable, and it acts as the back termination resistor for the transmission line. The output driver automatically adjusts its slew rate depending on the input datarate so that it will be in compliance with SMPTE 259M, SMPTE292M or SMPTE 424M as appropriate. In addition to output amplitude and rise/fall time specifications, the SMPTE specs require that SDI outputs meet an Output Return Loss (ORL) specification. There are parasitic capacitances that will be present both at the output pin of the device and on the application printed circuit board. To optimize the return loss, these must be compensated for, usually with a series network comprising a parallel inductor and resistor. The actual values for these components will vary from application to application, 11 www.national.com LMH0341, LMH0041, LMH0071, LMH0051 but the typical interface circuit shows values that would be a good starting point. LMH0341, LMH0041, LMH0071, LMH0051 tolerant. The use of the SMB_CS signal is recommended for applications with multi-drop applications (multiple devices to a host). The System Management Bus (SMBus) is a two wire interface designed for the communication between various system component chips. By accessing the control functions of the circuit via the SMBus, pin count is kept to a minimum while allowing a maximum amount of versatility. The SMBus has three pins to control it, there is an SMBus CS pin which enables the SMBus interface for the device, a Clock and a Data line. In applications where there might be several devices, the SDA and SCK pins can be bussed together and the individual devices to be communicated with may be selected via the CS pin The SCL and SDA are both open drain and are pulled high by external pullup resistors. The DES has several internal configuration registers which may be accessed via the SMBus. These registers are listed inDES Register Detail Table . Transfer Of Data To The Device Via The SMBus During normal operation the data on SDA must be stable during the time when SCK is high. START / STOP / IDLE conditions— There are three unique states for the SMBus: START A HIGH to LOW transition on SDA while SCK is high indicates a message START condition, STOP A LOW to HIGH transition on SDA while SCK is high indicates a message STOP condition. IDLE If SCK and SDA are both high for a time exceeding tBUF from the last detected STOP condition or if they are high for a total exceeding the maximum specification for tHIGH then the bus will transfer to the IDLE state. 30017221 FIGURE 6. Jitter Tolerance Curve SMBus Transactions A transaction begins with the host placing the DES SMBus into the START condition, then a byte (8 bits) is transferred, MSB first, followed by a ninth ACK bit. ACK bits are ‘0’ to signify an ACK, or ‘1’ to signify NACK, after this the host holds the SCL line low, and waits for the receiver to raise the SDA line as an ACKnowledge that the byte has been received. 30017213 FIGURE 7. Jitter Transfer Curve Parameters WRITING TO REGISTERS VIA THE SMBus INTERFACE To write a data value to a register in the DES, the host writes three bytes, the first byte is the device address—the device address is a 7 bit value, and if writing to the DES the last bit (LSB) is set to ‘0’ to signify that the operation is a write. The second byte written is the register address, and the third byte written is the data to be written into the addressed register. If additional data writes are performed, the register address is automatically incremented. At the end of the write cycle the host places the bus in the STOP state. READING FROM REGISTERS VIA THE SMBus INTERFACE To read the data value from a register, first the host writes the device address with the LSB set to a ‘0’ denoting a write, then the register address is written to the device. The host then reasserts the START condition, and writes the device address once again, but this time with the LSB set to a ‘1’ denoting a read, and following this the DES will drive the SDA line with the data from the addressed register. The host indicates that it has finished reading the data by asserting a ‘1’ for the ACK bit. After reading the last byte, the host will assert a ‘0’ for NACK to indicate to the DES that it does not require any more data. 30017220 FIGURE 8.

SMBus Configuration 3 — Host to multiple devices with multiple SMBus Interfaces 13 www.national.com LMH0341, LMH0041, LMH0071, LMH0051 GENERAL PURPOSE I/O PINS (GPIO) The DES has three pins which can be configured to provide direct access to certain register values via a dedicated pin. For example if a particular application required fast action to the condition of the deserializer losing it’s input signal, the PCLK detect status bit could be routed directly to an external pin where it might generate an interrupt for the host processor. GPIO pins can be configured to be in TRI-STATE® (High Impedance) mode, the buffers can be disabled, and when used as inputs can be configured with a pullup resistor, a pulldown resistor or no input pin biasing at all. Each of the GPIO pins has a register to control it. For each of these registers, the upper 4 bits are used to define what function is desired of the GPIO pin with options being slightly different for each of the three GPIO pins. The pins can be used to monitor the status of various internal states of the LMH0040 device, to serve as an input from some external stimulus, and for output to control some external function. GPIO0 Functions Allow for the output of a signal programmed by the SMBus Allow the monitoring of an external signal via the SMBus Monitor the status of the signal on input 0 GPIO1 Functions Monitor Power On Reset Allow for the output of a signal programmed by the SMBus Allow the monitoring of an external signal via the SMBus Monitor the status of the signal on input 1 Monitor Lock condition of the input clock recovery PLL GPIO2 Functions Allow for the output of a signal programmed by the SMBus Allow the monitoring of an external signal via the SMBus Provides a constant clock signal LVDS TX Clock at 1/20 full rate CDR Clock at 1/20 full rate Bits 2 and 3 are used to determine the status of the internal pullup/pulldown resistors on the device—they are loaded according to the following truth table: 00: pullup and pulldown disabled 01: pulldown enabled 10: pullup enabled 11: reserved Bit 1 is used to enable or disable the input buffer. If the GPIO pin is to be used as an output pin, then this bit must be set to a ‘0’ disabling the output. The LSB is used to switch the output between normal output state and high impedance mode. If the GPIO is to be used as an input pin, this bit must be set to ‘0’ placing the output in high Z mode. As an example, if you wanted to use the GPIO0 pin to monitor the status of the input signal on input 0, you would load register 02h with the value 0010 0001b www.national.com 30017208 FIGURE 12. Simplified LVCMOS Input Circuit 30017209 FIGURE 13. Simplified LVCMOS Output Circuit POTENTIAL APPLICATIONS FOR GPIO PINS In addition to being useful debug tools while bringing a DES design up, there are other practical uses to which the GPIO pins can be put: Automatic Switching To Secondary Input If The Signal On The Primary Input Is Lost By setting GPIO0 to monitor the status of input0 when there is a signal present on input 0, the GPIO0 pin will go low when there is no signal present on the Input0 pin, if this signal is inverted and then used to drive the RX_MUX_SEL then if the input on Input0 is lost, the device will automatically switch to Input1. Another possible use of the GPIO pins is to provide access to external signals such as the CD output from an equalizer or the LOCK output from the DES itself via the SMBus, helping to minimize the number of connections between the DES and the FPGA. 14 PCB LAYOUT RECOMMENDATIONS In almost all applications, the inputs to the DES will be driven by the output of an equalizer such as the LMH0044. You should follow the recommendations on the equalizer datasheet for the interface between the input connector and the equalizer—the DES will be placed between the equalizer and the FPGA. If the DES is too close to the equalizer, then there is a risk of crosstalk between the high speed digital outputs of the DES and the equalizer inputs. Conversely, if too far away then the interconnect between the equalizer and the DES may either pick up stray noise, or may broadcast noise since this is a very high speed signal. Be certain to treat the signal from the equalizer to the DES as a differential trace. If there is skew between the two conductors of the differential trace, not only might this cause difficulties for the DES receive circuitry, but having a phase difference between the sides of the pair makes the signal look and radiate like a common mode signal. If the loopthrough output is going to be used, it is advised that the DES be placed close to the Loopthrough output BNC connector, and the equalizer be placed close to the SDI Input BNC connector. This will minimize the lengths of the most critical connections. The DES includes a cable driver for the loopthrough output. The SMPTE Serial specifications have very stringent requirements for output return loss on drivers. The output return loss will be degraded by non-idealities in the connection between the DES and the output connector. All efforts should be taken to minimize the trace lengths for this area, and to assure that the characteristic impedance of this trace is 75Ω. The 75Ω termination resistor should be placed as close to the loopthrough output pin as is practicable. It is recommended that the PCB traces between the host FPGA and the DES be no longer than 10 inches (25cm) and that the traces be routed as differential pairs, with very tight matching of line lengths and coupling within a pair, as well as equal length traces for each of the six pairs. 30017219 FIGURE 14. Evaluation Board Loopthrough Output Return Loss TYPICAL SMPTE APPLICATIONS CIRCUIT A typical application circuit for the DES is shown in Figure 15. This circuit shows the LMH0341 3 Gbps deserializer, alternately this could employ the LMH0041 or LMH0071 deserializers in lower data rate SMPTE applications. The RX interface between the DES and the host FPGA is composed of a 5-bit LVDS Data bus and its LVDS clock. This is a point-to-point interface. Line termination should be provided by the FPGA device. If not, and external 100Ω resistor maybe used and should be located as close to the FPGA as possible to minimize stub lengths. Pairs should be of equal length to minimize any skew impact. The LVDS clock (RXCLK) uses both edges to transfer the data. An SMBus is also connected from the host FPGA to the DES. If the SMBus is shared, a chip select signal is used to select the device being addressed. The SCK and SDA signals require a pull up resistor. The SMB_CS is driven by a GPO signal from the FPGA. Depending on the FPGA I/O it may also require a pull up unless it is a push / pull output. Depending upon the application, several other Host GPIO signals maybe used. This includes the DVB_ASI and RESET input signals. If these pins are not used, then must be tied off to the desired state. The LOCK signal maybe used to monitor the DES. If it is unused, leave the pin as a NC (or route to a test point). Note also in this circuit, the LMH0341 GPIO_1 pin has been configured to provide the status of RXIN_1. When there is a signal present coming from the LMH0340, then RXIN_1 will be selected. If that signal is lost, the input MUX will automatically switch over to provide the system reference black signal as the input from RXIN_0. The DES includes a SMPTE compliant cable driver for the Loopthrough function. While this is a differential driver, it is commonly used single-endedly to drive 75 Ω coax cables. External 75 Ω pull up resistors are used to the 2.5V rail. The active output(s) also includes a matching network to meet the required Output Return Loss SMPTE specification. While application specific, in general a series 75 Ω resistor shunted by a 6.8 nH inductor will provide a starting value to design with. The signal is then AC coupled to the cable with a 4.7 µF capacitor. If the complementary output is not used, simply terminate it after its AC coupling capacitor to ground. This output (even though its inverting) may still be used for a loop back or 1:2 function due to the nature of the NRZI coding that the PCB DESIGN DO’S AND DON’TS DO Whenever possible dedicate an entire layer to each power supply whenever possible—this will reduce the inductance in the supply plane. DO use surface mount components whenever possible. DO place bypass capacitors close to each power pin. DON’T create ground loops—pay attention to the cutouts that are made in your power and ground planes to make sure that there are not opportunities for loops. DON’T allow discontinuities in the ground planes—return currents will follow the path of least resistance—for high frequency signals this will be the path of least inductance. DO place the Loopthrough outputs as close as possible to the edge of the PCB where it will connect to the outside world. DO make sure to match the trace lengths of all differential traces, both between the sides of an individual pair, and from pair to pair. DO remember that VIAs have significant inductance—when using a via to connect to a power supply or ground layer, two in parallel are better than one. DO connect the slug on the bottom of the package to a solid Ground connection. This contact is used for the major GND connection to the device as well as serving as a thermal via to keep the die at a low operating temperature. 15 www.national.com LMH0341, LMH0041, LMH0071, LMH0051 Application Information LMH0341, LMH0041, LMH0071, LMH0051 SMPTE standards require. The output voltage amplitude of the cable driver is set by the RSET resistor. For single-ended applications, an 7.87kΩ resistor is connected between this pin and ground to set the swing to 800mV. The PLL loop filter is external for the SER. A capacitor is connected between the LF_CP and LF_REF pins. Typical value is 30 nF. There are several configuration pins that requiring setting to the proper level. The RSVD_H pins should be pulled High to the 3.3V rail with a 5 kΩ resistor. Depending upon the application the DVB_ASI pin may be tied off or driven. There are three supply connections (see By Pass discussion and also Pin Descriptions for recommendations). The two main supplies are the 3.3V rail and the 2.5V rail. There is also a 3.3V connection for the PLL circuitry. There are multiple Ground connections for the device. The main ground connection for the SER is through the large center DAP pad. This must be connected to ground for proper device operation. In addition, multiple other inputs are required to be connected to ground as show in the figure and listed in the Pin Description table. 30017210 FIGURE 15.
