SNLS545E March 2017 – July 2022 LMH1297
PRODUCTION DATA
If the LMH1297 is placed in EQ mode (EQ/CD_SEL = L), adaptive cable equalization is enabled for SDI_IO. While the LMH1297 is in EQ mode, IN0 EQ is powered down.
SDI_IO has an on-chip 75-Ω termination to the input common-mode voltage and includes a series return loss compensation network for meeting stringent SMPTE return loss requirements (see Figure 7-8). The cable equalizer is designed with high gain and low noise circuitry to compensate for the insertion loss of a coaxial cable (such as Belden 1694A), which is widely used in broadcast video infrastructures.
