DEVICE DESCRIPTION
The Gennum GS9004D is an improved monolithic automatic
cable equalizer developed for SMPTE/EBU scrambled
NRZI Serial Di g i t a l Video signals.
While there are no plans to discontinue the GS9004D,
Gennum has developed a successor product with improved
features and performance called the GS9024. The GS9024
is recommended for new designs.
This device features DC restoration to pass the Pathological
Test Signals and fully automatic equalization in order to
meet the SMPTE 259M Serial Interface Standard. The
DATA and DATA outputs typically deliver 800 mV (p-
p) equalized signals into 50
Ω
loads (to V
TT
). These
signals can be used to feed cable driver circuits for Serial
Distribution Amplifier applications.

GS9004D CABLE EQUALIZER - DETAILED DEVICE DESCRIPTION
The GS9004D Cable Equalizer is a bipolar integrated circuit
used to equalize SMPTE 259M signals from a co-axial cable.
The device is implemented as a fourteen pin SOIC, powered
from a single five volt supply. With an operating frequency up
to 400 Mb/s, the equalizer consumes about 285 mW of
power.
The Serial Digital signal is connected to the input (pins 8, 9)
either differentially or single ended with the unused input
being decoupled. The equalized signal is generated by
passing the cable signal through a voltage variable filter
having a characteristic which closely matches the inverse
cable loss characteristic. Additionally, the variation of the
filter characteristic with control voltage is designed to imitate
the variation of the inverse cable loss characteristic as the
cable length is varied.
The amplitude of the equalized signal is monitored by a peak
detector circuit which produces an output current with a
polarity corresponding to the difference between the desired peak
signal level and the actual peak signal level.
This output is integrated by an external AGC filter capacitor
(AGC CAP pin 7), providing a steady control voltage for the
voltage variable filter.
A separate signal strength indicator output, (SSI pin 6),
proportional to the amount of AGC, is also provided. As the
filter characteristic is varied automatically by the application
of negative feedback, the amplitude of the equalized signal is
kept at a constant level which is representative of the original
amplitude at the transmitter.
The equalized signal is then DC restored, effectively restoring
the logic threshold of the equalized signal to its correct level
irrespective of shifts due to AC coupling.
As the final stage of signal conditioning, a comparator converts
the analog output of the DC restorer to a regenerated digital
output signal having pseudo-ECL voltage levels. These
outputs, DATA and DATA, are available from pins 13 and 14
respectively.
An OUTPUT 'EYE' MONITOR (pin 3) allows verification of
signal integrity after equalization, prior to reslicing.
