DTA-2142-SXP – Serial and parallel port adapter for PCI Express with StreamXpress and StreamXpert
DTA-2142 Features
- Universal parallel port for Rx and Tx of 8-bit data with valid and sync signals at clock rates up to 108MHz
- Serial port is software-selectable input or output, DVB-ASI or SDI
- The parallel port supports several modes, including DVB-SPI with boosted clock range, transport stream with fixed clock and valid, serial with explicit clock and BT-656 for uncompressed SD video
- External clock input that can be used as master clock for serial and/or parallel port
- BNC connector on PCI bracket can be used as serial port (default) or as external clock input by reconnecting coax cable to the external clock input MCX connector
- I/O standard is selectable M-LVDS or LVTTL
- Short-circuit detection on parallel port
- Each port has on-board 32-Mbytes buffer
DTA-2142 Applications
- General purpose lab card for generating and capturing of (un)compressed digital video and other 8-bit or 10-bit signals
- Universal stream station
