The GS9022A is a monolithic bipolar integrated circuit designed to serialize SMPTE 125M and SMPTE 244M bit parallel digital signals as well as other 8 or 10 bit parallel formats. This device performs the functions of sync detection, parallel to serial conversion, data scrambling (using the X9 + X4 +1 algorithm), 10x parallel clock multiplication and conversion of NRZ to NRZI serial data. The data rate is automatically set for SMPTE 259M data rates to 400 Mb/s. Other features include a lock detect output and an internal cable driver capable of driving two 75 loads.
