8914 Dual AES/EBU Delay Distribution Ampli fi er
Functional Description
Refer to the block diagram in Figure 5 while reading the description.
There are 2 inputs for the module. One of these inputs is a loop-through
input. The data paths are otherwise conceptually identical for both inputs.
The inputs are
fi rst received by the receive circuit. Next, the Field Program-
mable Gate Array (FPGA) sends the data to the FIFO, which returns the
data to the FPGA. Finally, the data is passed to the transmit circuit.

Receive Circuit
This circuit features a digital audio transformer conforming to EBU stan-
dards.
The AES/EBU receiver recovers audio data and low jitter clocks from the
digital audio input transmission line. The data is reclocked, and then sent
to the FPGA. A special mode allows the preamble and bi-phase mark data
to pass through in its entirety. The 6.144 MHz clock signal is also sent to the
FPGA.
FPGA
The FPGA is a fi eld programmable gate array containing proprietary Grass
Valley control circuitry. The FPGA converts the serial AES/EBU stream to
12-bit parallel data. The width of the data corresponds to the width of the
