General Description
The SDC2000 is a high-performance digital stereo encoder. Designed for
radiofrequency FM stereo broadcasting, it is housed in a 1HE box for 19" rack mount.
The SDC2000 generates an MPX (composite stereo) signal that is processed digitally
in its analogue form using the Right and Left analogue inputs, the AES/EBU analogue
inputs or the optical input; this ensures:
– High signal-to-noise ratio (S/N, higher than 80 dB) and high fidelity of stereophonic
signal .
– High stereophonic separation throughout the frequency range (higher than 65
dB).
This economical device incorporates all technical features offered by more expensive
coders without compromising on quality; it combines high DSP-based Digital Stereo
performance with an RDS coder.
The Integrated RDS coder is capable of processing standard PI, PS, PTY TP, TA,
AF, M/S, PIN, RT, EON, TDC and IH signals.
User interface consists of a graphic liquid crystal display and a knob (encoder). This
interface lets you view all parameters relating to machine operation and adjust settable
parameters (e.g.: preemphasis, right and left analogue channel level, etc...). A PS/2
port on the front panel enables keyboard connection to facilitate setting of operating
parameters.
This high-performance stereo coder uses an internal DSP (Digital Signal Processing)
circuit that provides high modulation linearity, high stereo separation and high input
level capacity.
The SDC2000 can process coded digital input signals using the AES/EBU standard,
or using the "Left" and "Right" analogue signals, that are converted into digital format
(A/D).
