EDH Coprocessor
DATA SHEET
FEATURES
DESCRIPTION
The GS9021 implements error detection and handling
(EDH) according to SMPTE RP-165. Interfacing to the
parallel inputs of either the GS9002, GS9022 or GS9032
serial digital encoders, the GS9021 is primarily used on the
transmit end of the SDI interface. The GS9021 provides
EDH insertion and extraction for 4ƒsc NTSC, 4ƒsc PAL and
all component PAL and NTSC standards including 4:2:2
(13.5MHz and 18MHz luminance sampling), and 4:4:4:4.
• Error Detection and Handling (EDH) according to
SMPTE RP-165
• EDH insertion and extraction in one device
• auto-standard operation with override via host
interface
• noise immune extraction of HVF timing signals
• TRS insertion/correction and ANC header correction
for all standards
The GS9021 generates noise immune timing signals such
as horizontal sync, vertical blanking and field ID. In
addition, TRS-ID correction/insertion and data blanking are
implemented for all standards.
• ITU-R-601 output clipping for active picture area
• selectable I²C interface or 8-bit parallel port for access
to EDH flags and device configuration bits
• all error flags available on dedicated output pins
• 24-bit Errored Field counter
A host interface, configurable as an 8-bit parallel interface
or an I²C (I²C is a registered trademark of Philips) serial
interface allows for communication with a microcontroller.
The interface can be used to read and/or write the
complete set of error flags and override the flag status prior
to re-transmission. A 5-bit flag port provides access to all
error flags on dedicated pins for applications where the
microcontroller is not used. The device automatically
determines the operating standard, but this can be
overridden through the programming interface.
• BYPASS mode to bypass EDH insertion/updating
• dynamic blanking control input
• 8-bit or 10-bit compatibility
• up to 54MHz operating frequency
• seamless flag-mapping with GS9020 serial digital
video input processor
• 64 pin LQFP
