Overview
The 9035 is a high quality format converter that also includes a full 16 channel audio embedder/de-
embedder, a 12-bit analog to digital video converter, a 8 channel 24-bit balanced analog to digital
audio converter, and a full video frame synchronizer.
The 9035 can best be thought of as a universal input processing card with audio and video support.
The video source can be either the HD/SD-SDI input or the HD/SD analog video input.
The audio system functions like an audio router internal to the card. On the input side of the router are
the up to 16 channels of embedded AES in the input video, the up to 16 channels (8 pairs) of discrete
AES input, up to 8 channels of differential analog audio input. On the output side are the up to 16
channels of embedded AES audio, and the up to 16 channels (8 pairs) of discrete AES output. The
router acts as a full audio cross point: each of the 32 output channels (16 embedded AES, 16 discrete
AES) can receive signal from any one of the 41 (16 embedded AES, 16 discrete AES, 8 Analog, 1
silence) input channels. Each output also allows gain adjustment and optional polarity inversion.
