1.0 SDM-875p HDTV Serial Digital to Component VGA/DVI Converter

1.1 Introduction

The SDM-875p is a High Definition digital converter converting
serial digital HDTV (SMPTE 292M) to High Definition Component
Analog/Digital (Y/Pb/Pr and RGB). The SDM-875p provides auto­matic input scan rate detection and supports a wide variety of
input formats including 525i, 625i, 720p, 1080i and 1080p. Output
formats are compliant to EIA/CEA-861-B standard. The primary
application is to convert HD serial to Component Analog/Digital
for the purposes of feeding an HDTV monitor, computer monitor
and projector. (CRT, LCD, Plasma, DLP, D-ILA etc). In order to
support the emerging popularity of 24p equipment and digital dis­play, the SDM-875p provides VGA and DVI output with selectable
3:2 sequence insertion.
