Semtech GV8601
GV8601 Aviia™ Adaptive Cable Equalizer
The GV8601 is a high-speed BiCMOS integrated circuit designed to equalize and restore signals received over 75 ohms coaxial cable. The GV8601 is designed to support HDcctv 1.0, ST 292 and ST 424, and is optimized for performance at 1.485Gb/s and 2.97Gb/s serial data. The GV8601 features DC restoration to compensate for the DC content of HDcctv 1.1 pathological test patterns.
