DETAILED DESCRIPTION
The GS7032 Serializer is a bipolar integrated circuit used to
convert parallel data into a serial format according to the
SMPTE 259M-C standard. The device encodes both 8-bit
and 10-bit TTL-compatible parallel signals producing serial
data rates at 270Mb/s. It operates from a single 5V supply
and is packaged in a 44 pin TQFP.
Functional blocks within the device include the following:
• input latches
• sync detector
• parallel to serial converter
• SMPTE scrambler
• NRZ to NRZI converter
• internal cable driver
• PLL for 10x parallel clock multiplication
• lock detect
The parallel data (PD0-PD9) and parallel clock (PCLKIN)
are applied via pins 1 through 11 respectively.
1. SYNC DETECTOR
The Sync Detector looks for the reserved words used in the
TRS-ID sync word. The reserved words are 000-003 and
3FC-3FF in 10-bit hexadecimal, or 00 and FF in 8-bit
hexadecimal. When the occurrence of either all zeros or all
ones at inputs PD2-PD9 are detected, the lower two bits
PD0 and PD1 are forced to zeros or ones, respectively. This
makes the system compatible with 8-bit or 10-bit data.
For non-SMPTE standard parallel data, the Sync Detector
can be disabled with a logic input, Sync Detect Disable (pin
44).
2. SCRAMBLER
The Scrambler is a linear feedback shift register used to
pseudo-randomize the incoming serial data according to
the fixed polynomial (X9+X4+1). This minimizes the DC
component in the output serial data stream. The NRZ to
NRZI converter uses another polynomial (X+1) to convert a
long sequence of ones to a series of transitions, minimizing
polarity effects. These functions can be disabled by setting
BYPASS high (pin 31).
3. PHASE LOCKED LOOP
The PLL performs parallel clock multiplication and provides
the timing signal for the serializer. It is composed of a
phase/frequency detector (with no dead zone), charge
pump, VCO, a divide-by-ten counter, and a divide by two
counter.
The phase/frequency detector allows a wider capture range
and faster lock time than can be achieved with a phase
discriminator alone. The discrimination of frequency also
eliminates harmonic locking. With this type of discriminator,
the PLL can be over-damped for good stability without
sacrificing lock time.
The charge pump delivers a 'charge packet' to the loop
filter which is proportional to the system phase error.
Internal voltage clamps are used to constrain the loop filter
voltage between approximately 1.8 and 3.4 volts.
The VCO is a differential low phase noise, factory trimmed
design that provides increased immunity to PCB noise and
precise control of the VCO centre frequency. The VCO has
a pull range of ±15% about the centre frequency. The single
external resistor, RVCO, sets the VCO frequency.
