SNLS558C April 2017 – May 2020 LMH0397
PRODUCTION DATA.
The LMH0397 has two output cable driver (CD) blocks, one for SDI_IO in CD Mode and another for SDI_OUT. These SDI outputs are designed to drive 75-Ω single-ended coaxial cables at data rates up to 2.97 Gbps. Both SDI_IO and SDI_OUT feature an integrated 75-Ω termination and return loss compensation network for meeting stringent SMPTE return loss requirements (see Figure 8). The cable drivers are designed for AC coupling, requiring a 4.7-μF, AC-coupling capacitor for minimizing base-line wander due to the rare-occurring pathological bit pattern.
