SNOSDC1A June 2024 – October 2024 LMH1229 , LMH1239
PRODUCTION DATA
Each LMH12x9 transmitter output can be configured independently to output a PRBS-7, PRBS-9, PRBS-23, or PRBS-31 for debug purposes. To output a PRBS signal, the LMH12x9 input must be CDR locked to a valid incoming signal at the same rate as the desired PRBS output generated rate.
The LMH12x9 SDI receiver input (SDI_IN or SDI_IN1) can be configured as a PRBS error checker, capable of identifying and tracking PRBS-7, PRBS-9, PRBS-23, or PRBS-31 signals for errors for debug purposes. To enable PRBS error checker functionality, the LMH12x9 must be locked to a valid SDI data rate.
To check the accuracy of the PRBS error checker, each transmitter, when configured as a PRBS generator, can be programmed to inject a single bit error through register control. This error injection ability allows users to verify that the PRBS generator is outputting correctly and that PRBS error checker is functioning as expected.
