GS3440-INTE3Z

Video Processing Overview

The GS3440-INTE3Z is a multi-rate long-reach cable equalizer from the Semtech GS3440 series, designed for signal integrity applications. It operates at a data rate of 2.97 Gb/s and requires a single 3.3 V supply voltage. The device draws a typical operating current of 53 mA with a power dissipation of 283 mW. It is housed in a QFN-16 surface-mount package and supports an industrial temperature range from -40°C to +85°C.

Video Processing Feature Summary

• Provides long-reach equalization capabilities for high-speed serial signals
• Supports multi-rate operation compatible with 3G-SDI standards
• Utilizes a compact QFN-16 surface-mount package for efficient board space utilization

Video Processing Applications

• 3G-SDI video transmission systems
• Long-reach copper interconnects requiring signal restoration
• Professional broadcast equipment signal conditioning

Video Processing Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix 'INTE3Z' to confirm the tape-and-reel packaging quantity of 2500 units and lead-free RoHS compliance status. Ensure the procurement documentation explicitly references the GS3440 series specifications to match the required 2.97 Gb/s data rate and 3.3 V operating voltage parameters.

Video Processing Selection Notes

Select this component when designing systems that require equalization for 3G-SDI signals over extended copper distances. The choice is driven by the need for a low-power solution operating at 3.3 V with a small QFN-16 footprint. Consider the -40°C to +85°C temperature range for industrial or professional broadcast environments where reliable signal integrity is critical.

Video Processing Part Context

This part belongs to the GS3440 family of cable equalizers manufactured by Semtech. These devices are engineered to restore signal quality degraded by channel loss. The GS3440-INTE3Z specifically targets multi-rate applications, offering a specialized solution for maintaining signal fidelity in professional video and data transmission links without requiring complex digital processing.

Video Processing Replacement Considerations

Consult official cross-reference lists for verified substitutes. Generic equalizers may not support the specific 2.97 Gb/s multi-rate requirements or the exact QFN-16 pinout configuration.
