GS3471-IBTE3Z

Video Processing Overview

The GS3471-IBTE3Z is a multi-rate SDI receiver supporting 3G-SDI, HD-SDI, and SD-SDI standards. It integrates complete SMPTE audio/video processing, which can be bypassed for other coding schemes. The device features an integrated adaptive cable equalizer and a dual input buffer with a 2x2 MUX for independent signal routing. An internal VCO-based re-timer provides wide input jitter tolerance. It includes an audio de-embedder extracting up to eight channels of serial digital audio per SMPTE ST 272-C and ST 299. The component supports 2K and multi-link UHD resolutions.

Video Processing Feature Summary

• Integrates adaptive cable equalizer technology for extended cable lengths and jitter tolerance
• Features a dual input buffer with a 2x2 MUX for independent input selection and loopback routing
• Includes configurable power-down modes to selectively enable or disable key features for power savings
• Supports SMPTE, DVB-ASI, and Data-Through operational modes

Video Processing Applications

• Multi-rate SDI signal reception in broadcast infrastructure
• 2K and multi-link UHD video processing systems
• Audio de-embedding from serial digital video streams
• Applications requiring high jitter tolerance and long cable reach

Video Processing Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix IBTE3Z against official Semtech documentation to confirm package type, temperature range, and lead-free status. Ensure compatibility with system requirements for the 9x9mm 100-ball BGA package at 0.8mm ball pitch. Confirm that the device meets all necessary environmental compliance standards for the intended deployment environment before procurement.

Video Processing Selection Notes

Select this component when a compact, low-power solution for multi-rate SDI reception is required. It is suitable for designs needing integrated adaptive equalization and flexible input switching via the 2x2 MUX. Consider this part for applications demanding support for both standard SMPTE processing and alternative coding schemes through feature bypass capabilities.

Video Processing Part Context

This part belongs to the GS347x family of small, low-power SDI receivers. It serves as an evolution over previous generations like the GS2971A, offering a smaller 9x9mm 100-ball BGA package compared to the 11x11mm variant. The family is designed for efficient video signal processing with reduced power consumption relative to earlier models.

Video Processing Replacement Considerations

The GS3470 is a related family member with similar functionality but potentially different power characteristics. Verify pinout and package compatibility (9x9mm BGA) if substituting. The GS2971A is a predecessor with a larger 11x11mm package; direct replacement requires mechanical redesign.
