GS6152-INTE3

Video Processing Overview

The GS6152-INTE3 is a low-power, multi-rate serial digital reclocker designed to automatically recover the embedded clock from a digital video signal and re-time incoming data. It supports 6G UHD-SDI signals compliant with SMPTE ST 2081, as well as SMPTE ST 292, ST 424, ST 259-C, and DVB-ASI standards. The device features four channels, operates on a single 1.8V supply, and consumes 130mW typical power. It includes automatic rate selection, input equalization, output de-emphasis, and configurable GPIOs for status indication.

Video Processing Feature Summary

• Automatically recovers embedded clock and re-times digital video data across multiple standard rates
• Supports retiming of 6G UHD-SDI, 3G-SDI, HD-SDI, SD-SDI, and MADI audio streams
• Includes input signal equalization and output de-emphasis to compensate for trace dielectric losses
• Features configurable GPIO pins for lock detect, loss of signal, and slew-rate control

Video Processing Applications

• Broadcast infrastructure requiring jitter management for 6G UHD-SDI signals
• Video processing systems integrating SMPTE ST 2081 compliant data streams
• Multi-rate digital video distribution networks supporting SDI and DVB-ASI standards
• MADI audio stream retiming applications in professional audio environments

Video Processing Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity through authorized Semtech distributors or direct manufacturer channels. Confirm RoHS compliance and lead-free status via official datasheets. Check for end-of-life notifications or discontinuation updates prior to procurement. Ensure packaging specifications match design requirements. Validate operating temperature range suitability for target environment.

Video Processing Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring quad-channel reclocking with low power consumption. Consider its support for both automatic and manual rate selection modes. Evaluate its compatibility with existing SMPTE and DVB standards in the system architecture. Assess the need for input equalization and output de-emphasis features for signal integrity.

Video Processing Part Context

The GS6152 belongs to Semtech's GS615x series of high-performance reclockers. It complements other devices like the GS6151 dual-input reclocker within the same product family. These components are part of Semtech's broader signal integrity portfolio focused on managing jitter and maintaining system robustness in broadcast and professional video applications.

Video Processing Replacement Considerations

Check for available substitutes within the GS615x series, such as the GS6151 for dual-channel needs. Verify pin-to-pin compatibility if replacing with other reclockers. Consult Semtech for current availability and alternative part numbers due to potential discontinuation status.
