3415 Introduction The 3415 is a precision 10 bit 270Mb/s component digital to analogue video converter with full ITU-R 601 filtering. The output is switchable for GBR or Y, Pb, Pr with sync on Y/GBR and on a separate output. An output of composite analogue video is provided to facilitate composite monitoring and four re-clocked and buffered copies of the SDI input are provided with the 30mm rear panel.

3415 Configuration and operation Selecting the rear connector The 3415 may be used with either the 20mm K3415-2 rear connector or the 30mm K3415-3 rear connector which provides four outputs of the re-clocked buffered SDI input. K3415.2 K3415.3 SDI IN...
3415 Component Video Digital to Analogue Converter Setting component output options The analogue component output may be set in either Y, Pb, Pr or GBR formats. Syncs may be added to the luminance (Y) or GBR signals and a 7.5 IRE pedestal may be added in 525 operation to R, G, B and Y outputs.
3415 Component level adjustment Gain adjustment is provided for the module analogue outputs for compatibility with both Betacam and M-II formats. Adjustment ranges are shown relative to SMPTE/EBU N10 levels. Y ADJ Pb ADJ Pr ADJ SYNC ADJ INPUT ERR...
