1.2 SDI Input (J4)
The EB-GS2971 includes a single SDI input.
1.3 Switch Settings (SW2)
A DIP switch (SW2) is populated on the EB-GS2971, with each bit labelled on the
silk-screen. This switch is used to set the operating modes of the GS2971. The signal can
be set HIGH by placing the switch to the ‘1’ position (Closed).
NOTE:
Some signals are active LOW, so you will need to switch the bit ‘OFF’ to activate
the signal.
Refer to
Table 1-1
below for definitions of each bit.

Bit Name
Description
TIM8
6
1
C
onnected to the
GS
2971 TIM_8
6
1 pin. Used to select
C
EA-8
6
1 timing mode.
When TIM_8
6
1 is HI
G
H, the device outputs
C
EA 8
6
1 timing signals (H
S
YN
C
/V
S
YN
C
/DE) instead of H:V:F digital
timing signals.
S
MPTE_BYPA
SS
b
C
onnected to the
GS
2971
S
MPTE_BYPA
SS
pin. Used to enable/disable all forms of encoding/decoding,
descrambling, audio and AN
C
data detection and extraction and error detection and correction.
When the AUTO/MAN bit in the Host Interface register is HI
G
H (Default), this pin is an OUTPUT.
S
MPTE_BYPA
SS
is
HI
G
H when the device locks to a
S
MPTE compliant input.
S
MPTE_BYPA
SS
is LOW under all other conditions.
When the AUTO/MAN bit in the Host Interface register is LOW, this pin is an INPUT. No
S
MPTE scrambling takes
place, and none of the I/O processing features of the device are available when
S
MPTE_BYPA
SS
is set LOW.
When
S
MPTE_BYPA
SS
is set HI
G
H, the device carries out
S
MPTE descrambling and I/O processing.
When
S
MPTE_BYPA
SS
and DVB_A
S
I are both set LOW, the device operates in Data-Through mode.
DVB_A
S
I
C
onnected to the
GS
2971 DVB_A
S
I pin. Used to enable/disable DVB-A
S
I data decoding in manual mode.
When the AUTO/MAN bit in the Host Interface is LOW, this pin is an input and when set HI
G
H the device will
carry out DVB_A
S
I data extraction and processing. The
S
MPTE_BYPA
SS
pin must be set LOW.
When
S
MPTE_BYPA
SS
and DVB_A
S
I are both set LOW, the device operates in Data-Through mode.
When the AUTO/MAN bit in the Host Interface is HI
G
H (Default), DVB-A
S
I input is not supported.
AUDIO_EN/DI
S
b
C
onnected to the
GS
2971 AUDIO_EN/DI
S
pin. Enables or disables audio extraction.
IOPRO
C
_EN/DI
S
b
C
onnected to the
GS
2971 IOPRO
C
_EN/DI
S
pin. Used to enable or disable I/O processing features.
When IOPRO
C
_EN/DI
S
is HI
G
H, the I/O processing features of the device are enabled.
When IOPRO
C
_EN/DI
S
is LOW, the I/O processing features of the device are disabled, and the latency of the
device is LOW. Please refer to the Data
S
heet for more information.
20BIT/10BITb
C
onnected to the
GS
2971 20bit/10bit pin. Used to select the output bus width. (HI
G
H = 20bit, LOW = 10bit)
S
DO_EN/DI
S
b
C
onnected to the
GS
2971
S
DO_EN/DI
S
pin. Used to enable/disable the serial digital output stage.
When the
S
DO_EN/DI
S
is LOW, the serial digital output signals,
S
DO and
S
DO, remain static.
When connected to logic HI
G
H, the serial digital output signals,
S
DO and
S
DO, are enabled.
The
S
DO and
S
DO outputs will also be disabled when the RE
S
ET pin is LOW.
R
C
_BYPb
C
onnected to the
GS
2971 R
C
_BYP pin. When this pin is LOW, the serial digital output is the buffered version of
the input serial data.
When this pin is HI
G
H, the serial digital output is the reclocked version of the input serial data.
