Temperature Compensation
Figure 15 shows the connections for the frequency setting
resistors for the various data rates. The compensation shown
for 360 Mb/s and 177 Mb/s with Divide by 2 ON, is useful to
a maximum ambient temperature of 50 C. If the Divide by 2
function is not enabled by the ƒ/2 ENABLE input, no
compensation is needed for the 143 Mb/s and 177 Mb/s data
rates. The resistor connections are shown in Figure 16. In both
cases , the 0.1 F capacitor that bypasses the potentiometer
should be star routed to VEE3.
Temperature Compensation Procedure
In order to correctly set the VCO frequency so that the PLL will
always re-acquire lock over the full temperature range, the
following procedure should be used. The circuit should be
powered on for at least one minute prior to starting this
procedure.
Monitor the loop filter voltage at the junction of the loop filter
resistor and 10 nF loop filter capacitor (LOOP FILTER TEST
POINT). Using the appropriate network shown above, the
VCO frequency is set by first tuning the potentiometer so that
the PLL loses lock at the low end (lowest loop filter voltage).
The loop filter voltage is then slowly increased by adjusting the
the potentiometer to determine the error free low limit of the
capture range. Error free operation is determined by using a
suitable CRC or EDH measurement method to obtain a stable
signal with no errors. Record the loop filter voltage at this point

Loop Bandwidth
The loop bandwidth is dependant upon the internal PLL gain
constants along with the loop filter components connected to
pin 12. In addition, the impedance seen by the RVCO pin also
influences the loop characteristics such that as the imped-
ance drops, the loop gain increases.
Applications Circuit
Figure 17 shows an application of the GS9015A in an
adjustment free, multi-standard serial to parallel convertor.
This circuit uses the GS9010A Automatic Tuning Sub-
system IC and a GS9000B or GS9000S Decoder IC.
The GS9010A ATS eliminates the need to manually set or
externally temperature compensate the Receiver or Reclocker

incoming data stream is 4ƒsc NTSC,4ƒsc PAL or component
4:2:2.
The GS9010A includes a ramp generator/oscillator which
repeatedly sweeps the Reclocker VCO frequency over a
set range until the system is correctly locked. An automatic
fine tuning (AFT) loop maintains the Reclocker VCO control
voltage at it's centre point through continuous, long term
adjustments of the VCO centre frequency.
During normal operation, the GS9000B or GS9000S Decoder
provides continuous HSYNC pulses which disable the
ramp/oscillator of the GS9010A.
correct Reclocker VCO frequency. When an interruption
to the incoming data stream is detected by the Reclocker,
the Carrier Detect goes LOW and opens the AFT loop in
order to maintain the correct VCO frequency for a period
of at least 2 seconds. This allows the Reclocker to rapidly
relock when the signal is re-established.
