INTRODUCTION 

The 

PG-303 

3G/HD/SD-SDI Pattern Generator

 is an advanced SDI pattern generator with multi-format 

(3G/HD/SD) and multi-pattern support. Besides still and moving video test patterns, other features such 
as audio (SMPTE-291M) are also provided. PG-303 can support up to 8 channel AES compliant audio 
with 48KHz sample rate. Another attractive feature of PG-303  comes from bypassing HDMI input and 
allows users with more testing patterns for connected display or treats PG-303 as an advanced HDMI to 
SDI converter with 3G capability. With portable size, PG-303 is equipped four buttons and LCM screen to 
ease the control. This device provides a cost effective way to calibrate and test SDI enable video devices 
and displays.
