The GS9024 GS9024 provides up to 40dB of gain at 200MHz which will typically result in equalization of greater than 350m at 270Mb/s of Belden 8281 cable. · fully compatible with SMPTE 259M · typically equalizes greater than 350m of high quality cable at 270Mb/s · signal strength indicator · output data muting when input data is lost · output 'eye' monitor (OEM) with large signal amplitude and power down option · low power: 240mW at 5V · 14 pin SOIC package · programmable output data squelch for max cable length limiting · carrier detect with programmable threshold level · serial data output "High Z" select to allow muxing of EQ inputs APPLICATIONS Front-end cable equalization for digital video systems; Input equalization for serial digital distribution amplifiers, routers, production switchers and other receiving equipment. The GS9024 GS9024 incorporates an analog signal strength indicator/ carrier detect (SSI/CD) output indicating both the presence of a carrier and the amount of equalization applied to the signal. Optional external resistors allow the carrier detect threshold level to be customized to the user's requirement. The GS9024 GS9024 also features selectable High Z serial data outputs eliminating the need for input muxing circuitry in routers. In addition, the GS9024 GS9024 provides an 'Output Eye Monitor' (OEM) which allows the verification of signal integrity after equalization, prior to reslicing. The GS9024 GS9024 operates from a single +5V or -5V power supply and consumes only 240mW of power. Packaged in a small 14 pin SOIC, the GS9024 GS9024 is ideal for router applications where high density component placement is required.

The gain stage provides up to 40dB of gain at 200MHz which will typically result in equalization of greater than 350m at 270Mb/s of Belden 8281 cable. GS9024 GS9024 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 an external differential AGC filter capacitor (AGC+/AGC-) 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 corrective level irrespective of shifts due to ac coupling. The digital output signals have PECL voltage levels (800mV) and are available at pins SDO and SDO. Fig. 9 Output Data Waveform at 270Mb/s, 300m OUTPUT HIGH Z A HIGH Z pin allows the data outputs to be put into a high impedance state, effectively disconnecting them from the output traces. This feature is ideal for input expansion in router applications as it eliminates the need for input muxes or crosspoints. SIGNAL STRENGTH INDICATION/CARRIER DETECT The GS9024 GS9024 incorporates an analog signal strength indicator/carrier detect (SSI/CD) output indicating both the presence of a carrier and the amount of equalization applied to the signal. The voltage output of this pin versus cable length (signal strength) is shown in Figure 11. With 0 m of cable (800mV input signal levels), the SSI/CD output voltage is approximately 4.5V. As the cable length increases, the SSI/CD voltage decreases linearly providing accurate correlation between the SSI/CD voltage and cable length. When the signal strength decreases to the level set at the "Carrier Detect Threshold Adjust" pin, the SSI/CD voltage goes to a logic "0" state (0.8V) and can be used to drive other TTL/CMOS compatible logic inputs. In addition, when loss of carrier is detected the SDO/SDO outputs are muted (set to a known static state). Fig. 10 Output Data Waveform at 540Mb/s, 200m DETAILED DESCRIPTION The GS9024 GS9024 Automatic Cable Equalizer is a bipolar integrated circuit designed to equalize serial digital data signals between 30Mbps and 622Mbps. Powered from a single +5V or -5V supply, the device consumes approximately 240mW of power. The serial data signal is connected to the input pins (SDI/ SDI) either differentially or single ended. The input signal passes through a variable gain equalizing stage whose frequency response closely matches the inverse cable loss characteristic. In addition, the variation of the frequency response with control voltage imitates the variation of the 6 521 - 70 - 05 I/O DESCRIPTION HIGH SPEED ANALOG INPUTS (SDI/SDI) 4 SDI/SDI are high impedance inputs differential or single-ended input drive. which accept 3 CD_ADJ CONTROL RANGE Figure 12 shows the recommended interface when a singleended serial digital signal is used. 2 GS9024 GS9024 SSI/CD OUTPUT VOLTAGE (V) 5 10nF 1 75 SDI 75 GS9024 GS9024 10nF SDI 0 0 50 100 150 200 250 300 350 400 450 500 37.5 75 CABLE LENGTH (m) Fig. 12 Fig. 11 HIGH SPEED OUTPUTS (SDO/SDO) CARRIER DETECT THRESHOLD ADJUST SDO/SDO are current mode outputs that require external pullups (see Figure 13). The output signal swings are 800mV when 75 resistors are used. A diode can be placed between VCC and the pullups to shift the signal levels down by approximately 0.7 volts. When the output traces are longer than 1 inch, controlled impedance traces should be used. The pullup resistors should be placed at the end of the output traces as they terminate the trace in its characteristic impedance (75). The threshold level at which loss of carrier is detected is adjustable via external resistors at the CD_ADJ pin. The control voltage at the CD_ADJ pin is set by a simple resistor divider circuit. The threshold level is adjustable from 200m to 350m. By default (no external resistors), the threshold is typically 320m. Connecting this pin to Ground disables the SDO/SDO muting function and allows for maximum possible cable length equalization. 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. To alleviate this problem, the GS9024 GS9024 provides a user adjustable threshold to meet the unique conditions that exist in each user's application. Override and internal default settings have also been provided to give the user total flexibility.

The OEM pin is an open collector current output that requires an external 50 ohm pullup resistor. When the pullup resistor is not used, the OEM block is disabled and the internal OEM circuit is powered down. The OEM provides a 0.25V p-p signal when driving a 50 oscilloscope input. 7 521 - 70 - 05 TYPICAL APPLICATION CIRCUIT 100nF VCC 14 1 AGC3 GS9024 GS9024 10n 4 13 37.5 VEE HIGH Z VCC SSI/CD SDI 75 75 12 GS9024 GS9024 SDO 10n VCC 7 75 DATA OUT DATA OUT SDO SDI 6 75 11 10 5 75 VCC AGC+ 2 SDI INPUT 30 - 622Mb/s VCC 9 VEE CD_ADJ VCC OEM VCC 8 100k POT (optional) 50 All resistors in ohms, all capacitors in farads, unless otherwise shown. 1n EYE MONITOR OUTPUT PACKAGE DIMENSIONS All dimensions in millimeters. 8.75 MAX 1.91 MAX 0.49 MAX 1.27 MAX 8 14 4.0 MAX 6.20 MAX 0.25 MAX 7 1 0.25 MAX O.56 MAX = = = = = = 7.62 ±0.05 16 Pin SOIC Narrow 6 spaces@ 1.27±0.05 CAUTION ELECTROSTATIC SENSITIVE DEVICES DO NOT OPEN PACKAGES OR HANDLE EXCEPT AT A STATIC-FREE WORKSTATION DOCUMENT IDENTIFICATION REVISION NOTES: DATA SHEET The product is in production.
