9363

Multi-Format Reference Generator

Product by: Cobalt Digital

The highly flexible 9363 Multi-Format Reference Generator generates four reference signal pairs that are independently configurable as composite black burst or tri-level reference sources. Each output can be any industry standard rate related to a received input reference source, or can be generated using the card’s internal clocking source. Timing for each output pair can be independently offset (in vertical lines or horizontal pixels) from the received reference or internal clock.

Features

  • Flexible, single-card source for any NTSC or PAL SD/HD broadcast or film reference rate

  • Develops output reference using external analog reference or stand-alone internal clock source

  • Outputs can be independently set for frame rate and delay relative from input/internal reference, or from each other

  • Genlock to output rates of 1:1, 1:2, or 2:1 relationship with clock source. Field Lock for interlaced format outputs from progressive clock sources.

  • AES/Word Clock output synchronized to any of the four card reference outputs

  • Remote control/monitoring via DashBoard™ software

  • Five year warranty
