Functional Description
The CYV15G0203TB Independent Clock Dual HOTLink II
Serializer is a point-to-point or point-to-multipoint communica-
tions building block enabling transfer of data over a variety of
high-speed serial links including SMPTE 292M and SMPTE
259M video applications. It supports signaling rates in the
range of 195 to 1500 Mbps per serial link. The two channels
are independent and can simultaneously operate at different
rates. Each channel accepts 10-bit parallel characters in an
Input Register and converts them to serial data.

trates typical connections between independent video co-
processors and corresponding CYV15G0203TB Serializer
and CYV15G0204RB Reclocking Deserializer chips.
The CYV15G0203TB satisfies the SMPTE-259M and SMPTE-
292M compliance as per SMPTE EG34-1999 Pathological
Test Requirements.
As
a
second-generation
CYV15G0203TB extends the HOTLink family with enhanced
levels of integration and faster data rates, while maintaining
serial-link compatibility (data, and BIST) with other HOTLink
devices. Each channel of the CYV15G0203TB Dual HOTLink
II device accepts scrambled 10-bit transmission characters.
These characters are serialized and output from dual Positive
ECL (PECL) compatible differential transmission-line drivers
at a bit-rate of either 10- or 20-times the input reference clock
for that channel.
Each channel contains an independent BIST pattern
generator. This BIST hardware allows at-speed testing of the
high-speed serial data paths in each transmit section of this
device, each receive section of a connected HOTLink II
device, and across the interconnecting links.
The CYV15G0203TB is ideal for SMPTE applications where
different data rates and serial interface standards are
necessary for each channel. Some applications include multi-
format routers, switchers, format converters, and cameras.
