Introduction In This Chapter This chapter includes the following sections: • A Word of Thanks • Overview • Functional Block Diagram • Supported Audio and Video Formats • Documentation Terms A Word of Thanks Congratulations on choosing the openGear 9033-SD Standard Definition Analog to Digital Converter with Audio Embedding. -
Page 7: Functional Block Diagram
Audio rates are always 48kHz nominally but discrete AES inputs pass through sample rate converters to align them with the output timing. Output AES is always precisely locked in time with the output video. Analog audio is differential input and sampled at 48 kHz with 0 dbFS digital equivalent to +24 dBu analog. -

Page 9: Analog Audio
Analog Audio The 9033-SD supports 8 channels differential analog audio. The analog audio is encoded in such a way as to make +24 dBu (analog) equivalent to 0 dBFS (digital). Analog audio conversion can be disabled to reduce power consumption. Discrete AES Audio Input The 9033-SD can accept 16 channels (8 pairs) of discrete AES audio on 75 ohm BNC connections. -
