Description

The GS2984 is a high-speed BiCMOS integrated circuit designed to equalize and restore signals received over 75Ω coaxial cable. The device is designed to support SMPTE 424M, SMPTE292M and SMPTE 259M, and is optimized for performance at 270Mb/s, 1.485Gb/s and 2.97Gb/s. The GS2984 features DC restoration to compensate for the DC content of SMPTE pathological test patterns. The Carrier Detect output pin (CD ) indicates whether a valid input signal has been detected. It can be connected directly to the MUTE pin to mute the output on loss of carrier. A voltage programmable threshold, which can be changed via the SQ_ADJ pin, forces CD high when the input signal amplitude falls below the threshold. This allows the GS2984 to distinguish between low-amplitude SDI signals and noise at the input of the device. The equalizing and DC restore stages are disengaged when the BYPASS pin is HIGH. No equalization occurs in Bypass mode. The GS2984 includes a gain selection pin (GAIN_SEL) which, when tied HIGH, compensates for 6dB flat attenuation. The differential outputs can be DC-coupled to Gennum 3.3V cable drivers and reclockers and to industry-standard 3.3V and 2.5V CML logic using the CMSET pin. The GS2984 is footprint and drop-in compatible with existing GS2974 designs, with no additional application changes required. The device is available in a 16-pin, 4mm x 4mm QFN package. Power consumption of the GS2984 is typically 195mW. The GS2984 is Pb-free, and the encapsulation compound does not contain halogenated flame retardant. This component and all homogeneous subcomponents are RoHS compliant.

GS2984 Adaptive Cable Equalizer Data Sheet 50985 - 3 March 2010 10 of 20 4. Detailed Description The GS2984 is a high-speed BiCMOS IC designed to equalize serial digital signals. The GS2984 can equalize 3Gb/s, HD and SD serial digital signals, and will typically equalize 140m of Belden 1694A cable at 2.97Gb/s, 200m at 1.485Gb/s and 400m at 270Mb/s.The GS2984 is powered from a single +3.3V power supply and consumes approximately 195mW of power.

4.1 Serial Digital Inputs

The Serial Data Signal may be connected to the input pins (SDI/SDI) in either a differential or single ended configuration. AC coupling of the inputs is recommended, as the SDI and SDI inputs are internally biased at approximately 1.8V.

GS2984 Adaptive Cable Equalizer Data Sheet 50985 - 3 March 2010 11 of 20

4.2 Cable Equalization

The input signal passes through a variable gain equalizing stage, whose frequency response closely matches the inverse of the cable loss characteristic. In addition, the variation of the frequency response with control voltage imitates the variation of the inverse cable loss characteristic with cable length. The edge energy of the equalized signal is monitored by a detector circuit which produces an error signal corresponding to the difference between the desired edge energy and the actual edge energy. This error signal is integrated by both an internal and an external AGC filter capacitor providing a steady control voltage for the gain stage. As the frequency response of the gain stage is automatically varied by the application of negative feedback, the edge energy of the equalized signal is kept at a constant level which is representative of the original edge energy at the transmitter. The equalized signal is also DC restored, effectively restoring the logic threshold of the equalized signal to its correct level independent of shifts due to AC coupling.

4.3 Serial Digital Outputs

The digital output signals have a nominal voltage of 800mVpp differential, or 400mVpp single-ended when terminated with 50Ω as shown in Figure 4-1. Figure 4-1: Typical Output Voltage Levels (for 3.3V Common Mode) 50 50 SDO SDO +200mV -200mV VCM = 2.9V typical +200mV -200mV VCM = 2.9V typical

4.4 Programmable Squelch Adjust (SQ_ADJ)

The GS2984 incorporates a programmable Squelch Adjust (SQ_ADJ) threshold. This feature can be useful in applications where there are multiple input channels using the GS2984 and the maximum gain can be limited to avoid crosstalk. The SQ_ADJ pin acts to change the threshold of the Carrier Detect (CD) pin, through voltage level variances. When the input signal drops below a certain threshold, the CD pin will be driven high, indicating that there is not a valid input signal. In order to enable automatic muting of the output of the GS2984, the CD pin should be connected directly to the MUTE pin. In applications where programmable squelch adjust is not required, the SQ_ADJ pin may be left unconnected. Figure 4-2 shows the relationship between the SQ_ADJ voltage and cable length at which CD will assert or deassert. This feature has been designed for use in applications such as routers, where signal crosstalk and circuit noise cause the Equalizer to output erroneous data when no input signal is present. The use of a Carrier Detect function with a fixed internal reference does not solve this problem, since the signal to noise ratio on the circuit board could be significantly less than the default signal detection level set by the on chip reference. Figure 4-2: SQ_ADJ vs. Cable Length (VCC=3.3V, room temperature, 800mV launch swing)

4.5 Mute and Carrier Detect

The GS2984 includes a MUTE input pin that allows the application interface to mute the Serial Digital Output at any time. Set the MUTE pin HIGH to mute SDO and SDO. In this case, the outputs will mute regardless of the setting of the BYPASS pin. A Carrier Detect output pin (CD) indicates the presence of a valid signal at the input of the GS2984. When CD is LOW, the device has detected a valid input on SDI and SDI. When CD is HIGH, the device has not detected a valid input. NOTE 1: CD will only detect loss of carrier for data rates greater than 19Mb/s. The CD output pin may be connected directly to the MUTE input pin to enable automatic muting of the GS2984 when no valid input signal has been detected. NOTE 2: If the maximum cable length is exceeded (set by the SQ_ADJ pin) and the device is not in Bypass mode, the CD pin will not be driven low, even if a carrier is present.

4.6 GAIN_SEL

The GS2984 has an option of compensating for 6dB of flat attenuation in applications where there has been some type of attenuation prior to the equalizer.

4.7 CMSET Operation

The GS2984 has a selectable output common mode level. This is useful when interfacing to chips that can accept 2.5V input common mode levels. In these cases, AC coupling can be avoided by selecting the correct output common mode. NOTE: See Section 2.2 for Output Common Mode Voltage specification. Table 4-1: Mute Input Table Mute Function

4.8 Output Rise/Fall Times

Figure 4-3: Typical Rise/Fall time for 270Mb/s data rate (VCC=3.3V, room temperature, 800mV launch swing) The GS2984 was designed to limit bandwidth as cable length is increased. During normal 3G (2.97Gb/s), HD (1.485Gb/s), and SD (270Mb/s) operation, the impact of this is minimal on rise and fall time over the operating range from 0-200m. Above 200m, this bandwidth limitation becomes more significant, and reduction in rise and fall time is observed. This means that for SD (270Mb/s) operation at cable lengths greater than 200m, rise and fall times slow as shown in Figure 4-3 above. This is beneficial because at 270Mb/s, one unit interval is equal to 3.7ns, therefore rise and fall times less than 100ps are not required, and slower rise and fall times actually help to reduce EMI. 200Rise/Fall Time (ps) 0 100 200 300 400 Cable Length (m)

5.1 High Gain Adaptive Cable Equalizers

The GS2984 is Gennum's latest multi-rate adaptive cable equalizer. In order to continue to extend the cable length that an equalizer will remain operational over, it is necessary to have high gain in the equalizer. A video cable equalizer must provide wide band gain over a range of frequencies in order to accommodate the range of data rates and signal patterns that are present in a SMPTE compliant serial video stream. The GS2984 has an increase in gain over the GS2974A at critical HD and 3Gbps frequencies, and because of this, the GS2984 may be sensitive to signals at the input that the GS2974A will not be sensitive to. Small levels of signal or noise present at the input pins of the Equalizer may cause chatter at the output. In order to prevent this from happening, particular attention must be paid to board layout.

5.2 PCB Layout

Special attention must be paid to component layout when designing Serial Digital Interfaces for HDTV. An FR-4 dielectric can be used, however, controlled impedance transmission lines are required for PCB traces longer than approximately 1cm. Note the following PCB artwork features used to optimize performance:

  • PCB trace width for 3Gb/s rate signals is closely matched to SMT component width to minimize reflections due to change in trace impedance.
  • The PCB ground plane is removed under the GS2984 input components to minimize parasitic capacitance.
  • The PCB ground plane is removed under the GS2984 output components to minimize parasitic capacitance.
  • High speed traces are curved to minimize impedance changes.
