The demonstration includes UHDTV hybrid infrastructure technology
from intoPIX, Xilinx, TVLogic and BES
Semtech
Corporation (Nasdaq: SMTC),
a leading supplier of analog and mixed-signal semiconductors, will
demonstrate the interoperability of its 12Gb/s
UHD-SDI product portfolio by transporting ultra-high definition
video over a next-generation UHDTV
hybrid SDI/IP infrastructure featuring advanced technology from intoPIX,
Xilinx,
TVLogic
and BES
at the Society
of Motion Pictures & Television Engineers® (SMPTE®)
2015 Annual Technical Conference & Exhibition (SMPTE 2015) in
Hollywood on October 26-29. The demonstration will take place at the
intoPIX booth, Dolby room, booth 207 in the Loews Hollywood Hotel.

Next-generation UHDTV infrastructures are expected to require the
integration of UHD-SDI and emerging IP interface technologies. The
demonstration features seamless interoperability of Semtech’s UHD-SDI
solutions in a hybrid SDI/IP infrastructure and features the GS12141
cable equalizer and the GS12181
cable driver, in conjunction with intoPIX, a leader in hybrid
compressed SDI/IP solutions, and their TICO
compression technology, a visually lossless, lightweight compression
specifically designed for the broadcast industry. The demonstration
includes FPGA IP cores that support TICO compression and SMPTE
ST2022-6 encapsulation provided by Xilinx, a major supplier of FPGA
broadcast video solutions; an advanced
55 inch 12Gb/s UHD-SDI UHDTV monitor by TVLogic, a manufacturer of
leading-edge UHDTV broadcast display solutions; and a 12Gb/s
UHD-SDI patch field from BES, a supplier of advanced broadcast patch
panel products.
“Hybrid SDI/IP infrastructures are being realized today using a
combination of SDI and IP technologies. With the requirement to support
UHDTV image formats going forward, those same hybrid infrastructures
must now also support a combination of base-band UHD-SDI and mezzanine
compressed 3G-SDI and IP interfaces,” said Gael Rouvroy, CTO of intoPIX.
“Semtech’s portfolio of SDI and UHD-SDI solutions facilitates seamless
operation of next-generation UHDTV hybrid SDI/IP infrastructures.”
“The interoperability of Semtech’s UHD-SDI portfolio in a hybrid SDI/IP
infrastructure utilizing intoPIX’s TICO light compression technology is
expected to address the critical requirements of broadcasters as they
update their facilities with UHDTV-enabled infrastructures,” said John
Hudson, Director of Strategic Technology and New Business Development
for Semtech’s Signal Integrity Product Group. “We believe advanced UHDTV
solutions from TVLogic and BES will further drive rapid adoption of
next-generation UHDTV hybrid SDI/IP infrastructures.”
Key Features of the GS12141 & the GS12181
-
Multi-standard operation: 1Mb/s to 11.88Gb/s for increased
design flexibility and a wider range of end-product applications.
-
Performance optimized: Ultra-long cable reach at all data
rates, enabling designs that offer maximum performance (GS12141), and
ultra-low additive jitter for increased PCB design margin and
class-leading output return loss performance that surpasses SMPTE
specifications at all rates, simplifying board optimization and
speeding time to market (GS12181).
-
Ultra-low power consumption: Ideal for multi-channel,
high-density designs to minimize overall power consumption.
-
Advanced feature set: Output pre-emphasis compensates long PCB
trace lengths, simplifying PCB optimization (GS12141), and input trace
equalization compensates for long input trace lengths, critical for
optimizing performance in 12Gb/s UHD-SDI designs (GS12181).
