AJA R20CE 10-bit Encoder User Manual — Introduction
Introduction
The AJA Video R20CE SDI to Analog Video Encoder produces high quality NTSC
or PAL 10-bit encoded video from SMPTE 259M SDI inputs. Three additional
analog outputs can be configured as duplicates of the composite output, or used for
component output. When configured for component video, the R20CE can output
Y/C (S-Video), YPbPr (SMPTE, EBU-N10), Betacam, or RGB.
The R20CE also serves as an SDI distribution amplifier, providing 2 re-clocked
outputs of the SDI input source. The R20CE is compatible with the AJA FRI IRU 4
slot frame or the FR2 2RU 10 slot frame.
The component and composite outputs incorporate optimum chroma filtering and
independent pedestal configuration. The R20CE also features an exclusive PLL jitter
filter/memory to reduce the effects of SDI jitter on the output analog video. This
feature, along with the precision 4x oversampled D/A filters, provides high quality
analog outputs, with very low phase noise in the composite outputs.
The optional AJA model FSG (Frame Sync/Genlock) Module allows genlock to an
external reference with full timing adjustment. Without the FSG Module, the
reference input provides color frame timing.
