Sierra Video
Analog Composite-To-Serial Digital Video Converter
The 507109 combines professional 10 bit processing, high density (6 modules per rack unit), automatic multi-standard versatility, and SmartLinx accessibility into a single solution for analog composite video to digital video conversion applications. On-board precision references and EEPROM stored calibration provide stable performance while networked remote control offers ease of in-system adjustments. Built in cropping controls allow the user to remove undesirable source noise at the active picture boundaries. PAL or NTSC input formats are automatically selected as source material changes. This module accepts NTSC or PAL analog composite video signals and converts them into 270 Mbps ITU-601 4:2:2 component digital video signals. NTSC inputs are converted into 525 line component output signals while PAL inputs are converted into 625 line component output signals. Sophisticated adaptive decoding provide 3 line comb filtering with notch decoding to automatically select the best process for changing program content. Adjustments can be made via rear panel switchers, an LCD control panel (in the 1RU frame), or SmartLinx Windows Software.
