LMH0074 SMPTE 259M / 344M Adaptive Cable Equalizer General Description Features The LMH0074 SMPTE 259M / 344M Adaptive Cable Equalizer is designed to equalize data transmitted over cable (or any media with similar dispersive loss characteristics). The equalizer operates over a wide range of data rates from 143 Mbps to 540 Mbps and supports SMPTE 259M and SMPTE 344M. The LMH0074 implements DC restoration to correctly handle pathological data conditions. The equalizer may be driven in either a single ended or differential configuration. Additional features include separate carrier detect and output mute pins which may be tied together to mute the output when no signal is present. A programmable mute reference is provided to mute the output at a selectable level of signal degradation.

The stating herein of these maximums shall not be construed to imply that the device can or should be operated at or beyond these values. The table of "Electrical Characteristics" specifies acceptable device operating conditions. Note 2: Current flow into device pins is defined as positive. Current flow out of device pins is defined as negative. All voltages are stated referenced to VEE = 0 Volts. Note 3: Typical values are stated for VCC = +3.3V and TA = +25C. Note 4: Specification is guaranteed by characterization. Note 5: Specification is guaranteed by design. Note 6: The maximum input voltage swing assumes a nonstressing, DC-balance signal; specifically, the SMPTE-recommended color bar test signal. Pathological or other stressing signals may not be used. This specification is for 0m cable only. Note 7: Supply current depends on the amount of cable being equalized. The current is highest for short cable and decreases as the cable length is increased. Refer to Figure 1. Note 8: Input return loss is dependent on board design. The LMH0074 meets this specification on the SD074 evaluation board from 5MHz to 1.5GHz. 3 www.national.com LMH0074 Connection Diagram 30027503 16-Pin LLP Order Number LMH0074SQ See NS Package Number SQB16A Pin Descriptions Pin # Name Description 1 VEE Negative power supply (ground). 2 SDI Serial data true input. 3 SDI Serial data complement input. 4 VEE Negative power supply (ground). 5 AEC+ AEC loop filter external capacitor (1F) positive connection. 6 AEC- AEC loop filter external capacitor (1F) negative connection. 7 BYPASS Bypasses equalization and DC restoration when high.

MUTEREF may be left unconnected for maximum equalization before muting. Device Operation BLOCK DESCRIPTION The Equalizer Filter block is a multi-stage adaptive filter. If Bypass is high, the equalizer filter is disabled. The DC Restoration / Level Control block receives the differential signals from the equalizer filter block. This block incorporates a self-biasing DC restoration circuit to fully DC restore the signals. If Bypass is high, this function is disabled. The signals before and after the DC Restoration / Level Control block are used to generate the Automatic Equalization Control (AEC) signal. This control signal sets the gain and bandwidth of the equalizer filter. The loop response in the AEC block is controlled by an external 1F capacitor placed across the AEC+ and AEC- pins. The Carrier Detect / Mute block generates the carrier detect signal and controls the mute function of the output. This block utilizes the CD and MUTE signals along with Mute Reference (MUTEREF). The Output Driver produces SDO and SDO. CARRIER DETECT (CD) AND MUTE Carrier detect CD indicates if a valid signal is present at the LMH0074 input. If MUTEREF is used, the carrier detect threshold will be altered accordingly. CD provides a high voltage when no signal is present at the LMH0074 input. CD is low when a valid input signal is detected. MUTE can be used to manually mute or enable SDO and SDO. Applying a high input to MUTE will mute the LMH0074 outputs. Applying a low input will force the outputs to be active. CD and MUTE may be tied together to automatically mute the output when no input signal is present. INPUT INTERFACING The LMH0074 accepts either differential or single-ended input. The input must be AC coupled. Transformer coupling is not supported. The LMH0074 correctly handles equalizer pathological signals for standard definition serial digital video, as described in SMPTE RP 178. MUTE REFERENCE (MUTEREF) The mute reference sets the threshold for CD and (with CD tied to MUTE) determines the amount of cable to equalize before automatically muting the outputs. This is set by applying a voltage inversely proportional to the length of cable to equalize. As the applied MUTEREF voltage is increased, the amount of cable that can be equalized before carrier detect is OUTPUT INTERFACING The SDO and SDO outputs are internally loaded with 50. They produce a 750 mVP-P differential output, or a 375 mVP-P single-ended output. 5 www.national.com LMH0074 Application Information PCB LAYOUT RECOMMENDATIONS Please refer to the following Application Note on National's website: AN-1372, "LMH0034 PCB Layout Techniques." The PCB layout techniques in the application note apply to the LMH0074 as well. SUPPLY CURRENT VS. CABLE LENGTH The supply current (ICC) depends on the amount of cable being equalized. The current is highest for short cable and decreases as the cable length is increased. Figure 1 shows supply current vs. Belden 1694A cable length for 270 Mbps data. 30027515 FIGURE 1.
