Overview

Please use the GS12281 for new designs.

The GS12181 is a low-power, multi-rate, serial digital retiming cable driver supporting 12G UHD-SDI. It is designed to receive 100Ω differential input signals, automatically recover the embedded clock from the digital video signal and re-time the incoming data, and transmit the re-timed signal over 75Ω coaxial cables.
