GS3590-INE3

Video Processing Overview

The GS3590-INE3 is a configurable 3G-SDI reclocking adaptive cable equalizer and cable driver manufactured by Semtech. It operates at data rates up to 2.97 Gb/s with a supply voltage of 1.8 V. The device supports bidirectional functionality on a single I/O, providing robust multi-standard operation from DC to 2.97 Gb/s. It features long cable reach in equalizer mode and exceptional output eye quality with low jitter in cable driver mode. The component is housed in a QFN-40 package and functions within an operating temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.

Video Processing Feature Summary

• Configurable bi-directional capability on a single I/O for adaptive cable equalization and driving
• Reclocking function to manage jitter and maintain system robustness in broadcast applications
• Supports multi-standard operation from DC to 2.97 Gb/s with extended cable reach

Video Processing Applications

• 3G-SDI video infrastructure systems
• Broadcast equipment requiring signal integrity over long cables
• UHD-SDI and HD-SDI transmission links

Video Processing Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'INE3' against official Semtech documentation to confirm packaging details, as datasheets often list 'INTE3' (Reel) or 'INE3' (Tray). Ensure the order matches the required tape-and-reel or tray configuration. Confirm RoHS compliance status directly with the manufacturer's current specifications before procurement.

Video Processing Selection Notes

Select this component when bidirectional equalization and reclocking are required for 3G-SDI signals. It is suitable for designs needing extended cable reach without external retiming circuits. Compare power consumption and package size against the GS3490 if only equalization is needed. Ensure the design supports the 1.8V supply requirement and QFN-40 thermal dissipation needs.

Video Processing Part Context

The GS3590 belongs to Semtech’s FiberEdge family of configurable adaptive cable equalizers and drivers. This series addresses jitter management in high-speed serial video links. The GS3590 specifically targets 3G-SDI applications, offering integrated reclocking to enhance signal quality. It complements other models like the GS3490 by adding reclocking capabilities to the equalization function.

Video Processing Replacement Considerations

The GS3490 serves as a related component but lacks the reclocking feature. Verify if the application strictly requires reclocking; if not, the GS3490 may be a compatible alternative. Check pinout compatibility and software configuration requirements before substituting.
