MCHPVIDEO-DC-SDI
Overview
The VIDEO-DC-SDI is an FPGA Mezzanine Card (FMC) daughter card designed for high-speed serial digital interface applications. It provides the necessary hardware to interface FPGAs with professional video standards, supporting data rates from standard definition up to 12G SDI. The board includes essential signal conditioning components such as equalizers, drivers, and re-clockers to maintain signal integrity over long coaxial cable runs.
Why Choose This Part
This module simplifies high-speed video design by integrating a dedicated 148.5 MHz oscillator and high-performance re-clockers on the transmit path. The onboard RX equalizer ensures robust signal recovery across varying cable lengths, significantly reducing the complexity of physical layer implementation for 12G-SDI standards.
Applications
Key Specifications
Getting Started
To use this board, plug it into an FMC-compatible header on a Microchip SoC FPGA development kit, such as the PolarFire Video and Imaging Kit. Designers should utilize Microchip's IP cores for SDI protocol handling and reference the Libero SoC design suite for pin constraints and timing analysis. Ensure the FPGA carrier board provides the required power rails through the FMC connector as specified in the VITA 57.1 standard.
