World’s Smallest Decoders, Encoders and Converters
The picoLink Series offers an elegant and compact line of standalone
miniature encoders, decoders and converters with a multitude of
interfacing options. All picoLink modules offer excellent price/perfor-
mance and a simple user interface. A lightweight, compact aluminum
body combined with a simplified design ensures ease of installation
and operation. Each picoLink module is powered by a compact wall
mount power supply, while the 1RU LKS-CPS centralized power sup-
ply allows you to power up to 10 picoLink modules.
ASD-171p
Component Analog to 4:2:2 Serial Digital Converter
The ASD-171p is the world's smallest component A-D converter,
designed specifically to interface between the analog component video
and serial 4:2:2 video signal. Accepts VCR-type sources.
ASD-271p
NTSC/PAL/SECAM Composite to 4:2:2 Serial Digital Decoder
Offers 2-line luma and chroma filters with an adaptive comb filter for
NTSC. Accepts VCR-type sources.
ASD-272p
S-Video to 4:2:2 Serial Digital Decoder
SDM-171p
4:2:2 Serial Digital to Component Analog Converter
The smallest GBR/SMPTE/EBU video D-A converter available, the
SDM-171p allows for monitoring of a serial 4:2:2 video signal and
also provides a built-in color bar generator. This module automatically
detects 525 or 625 line formats from incoming serial 4:2:2 signals to
provide analog component GBR or Y/B-Y/R-Y signals.
SDM-271p
4:2:2 Serial Digital to NTSC/PAL Composite Video Encoder
This compact encoder converts from serial 4:2:2 to NTSC, PAL,
PAL-M or PAL-N. It automatically detects 525 and 625 formats and
provides a convenient built-in color bars generator. Ideal for monitor-
ing 4:2:2 signals in composite analog.
SDM-272p
4:2:2 Serial Digital to (NTSC/PAL/PAL-M based) S-Video Encoder
The SDM-272p converts from serial 4:2:2 to NTSC, PAL, PAL-M or
PAL-N based S-Video. It automatically detects 525 and 625 formats
and provides a convenient built-in color bars generator. Ideal for mon-
itoring or dubbing in mixed 4:2:2/S-Video environments.
ARC-371p
NTSC/PAL/SECAM Aspect Ratio Converter
The ARC-371p is a miniature composite aspect ratio converter which
automatically detects NTSC, PAL and SECAM standards and provides
a composite output signal. You can choose 16:9 to 4:3 or 4:3 to 16:9
conversion, or convert standards such as NTSC to/from PAL-M, PAL
to/from PAL-N or SECAM to PAL or PAL-N. It offers 2-line luma
and chroma filters with adaptive luma comb filter for NTSC and a
color bar generator.
IDA-771p
AES/EBU Repeater and Impedance Converter
This compact unit converts 75 ohms to or from 110 ohms AES/EBU
signals. Unlike "passive" impedance converters, the IDA-771p reclocks
the output signal to reduce jitter created by long cable lengths. It also
ensures that output signals conform to AES/EBU level specifications.
ASD-771p
AES/EBU Analog-to-Digital Converter
The ASD-771p is a 24 bit/48 kHz analog to digital audio converter.
An external reference input allows the output to be synchronised to
composite video, AES-3id Digital Audio Reference (DARS) or word
clock signals. A choice of three full scale levels (+20/+22/+24 dBu) of
input signals is possible.
SDM-771p
AES/EBU Digital-to-Analog Converter
The world’s smallest digital to analog audio converter, the SDM-771p
offers choice of 3 full scale output levels (+20/+22/+24 dBu).
ADX-171p
Analog Audio Demultiplexer
Packing both audio extraction and 20-bit quality D to A conversion
in a very compact unit, the ADX-171p can extract either AES pair
from any of the 4 embedded audio groups in a 4:2:2 video stream.
The full scale output level (0 dBFS) can be set to 20, 22 or 24 dBu.
Also provides a relocked serial digital output.
