3. The device is set to operate in Data-Through mode.
4.8.3 Loop Bandwidth Adjustment
For new designs the GO1555 is recommended for use with the GS1531. The
recommended loop bandwidth control component values are listed in Table 4-11
and can be seen in Section 5.1 Typical Application Circuit.
Designs using the GO1525 VCO will require different loop bandwidth control
components. The component values are listed in Table 4-11.
NOTE: When using the GS1531 with the GS4911B clock generator a narrower
loop bandwidth for the GS1531 serializer should be used. For more details please
refer to Section 2.5 of the GS4911B Reference Design.
4.9 Serial Digital Output
The GS1531 contains an integrated current mode differential serial digital cable
driver with automatic slew rate control.
The integrated cable driver uses a separate power supply of +1.8V DC supplied via
the CD_VDD and CD_GND pins.
To enable the output, SDO_EN/DIS
must be set HIGH. Setting the SDO_EN/DIS
signal LOW will cause the SDO and SDO
output pins to become high impedance,
resulting in reduced device power consumption.
Gennum recommends using the GS1528A SDI Dual Slew-Rate Cable Driver to
meet SMPTE specifications.
4.9.1 Output Swing
Nominally, the voltage swing of the serial digital output is 800mVp-p single-ended
into a 75Ω load. This is set externally by connecting the RSET pin to CD_VDD
through 281Ω .
The output swing may be decreased by increasing the value of the RSET resistor.
The relationship is approximated by the curve shown in Figure 4-4.
Alternatively, the serial digital output swing can drive 800mVp-p into a 50Ω load.
Since the output swing is reduced by a factor of approximately one third when the
smaller load is used, the RSET resistor must be 187Ω to obtain 800mVp-p.
