LMH0346SQ SDI Reclocker
Evaluation Board User
Guide
Introduction
The LMH0346SQ Serial Digital Interface (SDI) Reclocker is designed to recover a clean clock from a
serial digital video signal which may be contaminated by jitter and to resynchronize the input video data to
the recovered clean clock. The LMH0346SQ SDI Reclocker accepts signals conforming to standards
SMPTE 259M (C), SMPTE 292M, and SMPTE 424M.
The SD346EVK is a PC board designed to aid in the evaluation of the performance characteristics of the
LMH0346SQ Reclocker. The SD346EVK PC board is fabricated with FR-4 PC board material. The
inputs and outputs of the LMH0346SQ are connected to the SMA coaxial connectors on the board using
controlled-impedance 50Ω single-ended and 100Ω differential PC board traces.
This instruction guide describes the features of the SD346EVK. It should be used in conjunction with the
LMH0346SQ SDI Reclocker data sheet. Schematics and Bill of Materials (BOM) for the SD346EVK
board are included separately. In addition, board fabrication files are available on request. Contact your
local National Semiconductor representative.
PC Board Features
The SD346EVK is shown in Figure 1. The features of the board are described in the sections that follow.
General Description
The SD346EVK is a four-layer PC board fabricated using FR-4. The layer stackup is shown in drawing
number 551600090-001. As the drawing indicates, the nominal board thickness is .062 inches. The
board includes internal ground and power supply planes. The ground plane is the second layer of the
board (underneath the top layer) and is the reference for the controlled-impedance traces on the top layer.
The SD346EVK is fabricated using Pb-free solder and components and is comprised of RoHS-compliant
materials.
SDI Input and Output Connectors
The SDI input and output connectors are 50Ω SMA female coaxial connectors (jacks). These connectors
will mate non-destructively with 50Ω SMA male coaxial connectors (plugs). They will also mate non-
destructively with 50Ω APC-3.5 male coaxial connectors and 2.92 mm (K) male coaxial connectors.
These connectors will NOT mate to 2.4 mm connectors. Do not attempt to connect 2.4 mm connectors to
the SD346EVK PC board. This will damage both the board and the connected device or cable.
