3. Connecting up the module
The SM06 module is powered by a universal input (90-260VAC) AC-DC adaptor (see Chapter 7 for
the power supply specification). The 5VDC, 12W output of this adaptor should be connected to the
jack input, ‘+5V IN’, of the SM06. Once connected, the yellow LED, ‘FPGA OK’ should light,
indicating the FPGA has been correctly configured and the module is running.
Figure 3 shows the SM06 interconnections.
Figure 3 SM06 Interconnections.
SM06 accepts HD-SDI inputs: switching between the input standards is automatic. If a valid HD-SDI
clock is detected on the input, the ‘SDI LOCK’ LED will light. If the HD-SDI input has valid TRS
timing pulses and is one of the supported aCVi video standards shown in Table 1 the aCVi encoder
will convert the HD-SDI signal to an aCVi output.
SM06 provides simultaneous single ended coaxial and differential twisted-pair (UTP) outputs. The
UTP outputs are connected via a RJ45 style connector. Figure 4 shows the pin assignments for the
connector: aCVi assumes the UTP cable connections are ‘straight’ so both the transmitter and
receiver use pin 1 for the ‘VIDEO+’ (non-inverted) signal, and pin 2 ‘VIDEO-‘ (inverted) signal.
