Before You Begin

The SPG-8260(-W) generates four pairs of outputs with each pair independently programmed to be
either a tri-level sync or a composite signal. Each pair of outputs can be independently delayed
relative to the selected incoming reference or to each other when using an internal reference. The
delay is in increments of the output's interface sampling frequency (74.25MHz, 74.25/1.001MHz or
13.5MHz) up to one frame of video.
The each card is able to lock to one of the two frame references or the external reference input on
the rear module.

Features

The following features make the SPG-8260(-W) the ideal Sync Pulse Generator:
• AES interfaces conform to SMPTE 276M, and AES-3id-2001
• HD interfaces conform to SMPTE 274M and SMPTE 296M
• SD interfaces conform to SMPTE-170M (NTSC) and PAL-B standards
• Generates four pairs of outputs
• Each pair of outputs can be independently timed (delayed) relative to the incoming reference
• Composite outputs can be black or SMPTE color bars
• Tri-level sync output format is selectable from the following formats:
› 1080i 60/59.94/50 Hz
› 720p 60/59.94/50/30/29.97/25/24/23.98 Hz
› 1080p 30/29.97/25/24/23.98 Hz
› 1080pSF 24/23.98 Hz
• SPG-8260 only: Generates a Word Clock output (non-TTL)
