LMH0034 SMPTE 292M / 259M Adaptive Cable Equalizer General Description Features The LMH0034 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 125 Mbps to 1.485 Gbps and supports SMPTE 292M, SMPTE 344M and SMPTE 259M. The LMH0034 implements DC restoration to correctly handle pathological data conditions. DC restoration can be bypassed for low data rate applications. The equalizer is flexible in allowing either single-ended or differential input drive. Additional features include a combined carrier detect and output mute pin which mutes the output when no signal is present. A programmable mute reference is used to mute the output at a selectable level of signal degradation. A cable length indicator is provided to determine the amount of cable being equalized. ■ SMPTE 292M, SMPTE 344M and SMPTE 259M ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ compliant Supports DVB-ASI at 270 Mbps Data rates: 125 Mbps to 1.485 Gbps Equalizes up to 200 meters of Belden 1694A at 1.485 Gbps or up to 400 meters of Belden 1694A at 270 Mbps Manual bypass, cable length indicator, and output mute with a programmable threshold Single-ended or differential input 50Ω differential outputs Single 3.3V supply operation 208mW typical power consumption with 3.3V supply Replaces the GS1524 and GS1524A Applications ■ SMPTE 292M, SMPTE 344M, and SMPTE 259M serial digital interfaces ■ Serial digital data equalization and reception ■ Data recovery equalization Typical Application 20173401 © 2009 National Semiconductor Corporation 201734 www.national.com LMH0034 SMPTE 292M / 259M Adaptive Cable Equalizer July 15, 2009 LMH0034 Absolute Maximum Ratings (Note 1) Supply Voltage Input Voltage (all inputs) Storage Temperature Range Junction Temperature Lead Temperature (Soldering 4 Sec) Package Thermal Resistance θJA 16-pin SOIC θJC 16-pin SOIC ESD Rating (HBM) ESD Rating (MM) Recommended Operating Conditions −0.5V to 3.6V −0.3V to VCC+0.3V −65°C to +150°C +150°C Supply Voltage (VCC – VEE) Input Coupling Capacitance AEC Capacitor (Connected between AEC+ and AEC-) Operating Free Air Temperature (TA) +260°C 3.3V ±5% 1.0 µF 1.0 µF 0°C to +85°C +115°C/W +105°C/W 8kV 250V DC Electrical Characteristics Over Supply Voltage and Operating Temperature ranges, unless otherwise specified (Notes 2, 3).

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 LMH0034 meets this specification on the SD034 evaluation board from 5MHz to 1.5GHz. 3 www.national.com LMH0034 Connection Diagram 20173403 16-Pin SOIC Order Number LMH0034MA See NS Package Number M16A Pin Descriptions Pin # Name Description 1 CLI Cable length indicator.

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. 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. Cable Length Indicator (CLI) is derived from this block. The Carrier Detect / Mute block generates the carrier detect signal and controls the mute function of the output. This block utilizes the bi-directional CD/MUTE signal along with Mute Reference (MUTEREF). The Output Driver produces SDO and SDO. CARRIER DETECT / MUTE (CD/MUTE) Carrier Detect / Mute is bi-directional, serving as both a carrier detect (output function) and mute (input function). When used as an output, CD/MUTE determines if a valid signal is present at the LMH0034 input. If MUTEREF is used, the carrier detect threshold will be altered accordingly. CD/MUTE provides a high voltage when no signal is present at the LMH0034 input, and the outputs are automatically muted. CD/MUTE is low when a valid input signal has been detected, and the outputs are automatically enabled. As an input, CD/MUTE can be used to override the carrier detect and manually mute or enable the LMH0034 outputs. Applying a high input to CD/MUTE will mute the LMH0034 outputs. Applying a low input will force the outputs to be active regardless of the length of cable or the state of MUTEREF. INPUT INTERFACING The LMH0034 accepts either differential or single-ended input. The input must be AC coupled. Transformer coupling is not supported. The LMH0034 correctly handles equalizer pathological signals for standard definition and high definition serial digital video, as described in SMPTE RP 178 and RP 198, respectively. CABLE LENGTH INDICATOR (CLI) The cable length indicator provides a voltage to indicate the length of cable being equalized. The CLI voltage decreases as the cable length increases. MUTE REFERENCE (MUTEREF) The mute reference 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 5 www.national.com LMH0034 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.

SUPPLY CURRENT VS. CABLE LENGTH The supply current (ICC) depends on the amount of cable being equalized. The current is highest for short cable and decreases as the cable length is increased.
