TTX890

Multi-format SD/ HD-SDI VANC De-embedder / Decoder Card

   
Overview The TTX890 is a TV data card capable of de-embedding and decoding VANC data of a SMPTE 292M (HD-SDI) or SMPTE 259M (SDI) signal. Decoding of vertical blanking interval (VBI) data is also possible with an optional analog input.

The TTX890 can decode data from multiple VANC lines. It can decode multiple packets per line. A combination of up to eight DID and SDID packets can be processed simultaneously. In 'raw' mode, all data from one or more lines in the VANC can be extracted. This capability makes the TTX890 ideal for a wide range of applications including high bandwidth applications that require multi-line/ multi-packet decoding.

Aimed at broadcasters, cable operators, satellite operators, and other content delivery companies, the TTX890 delivers decoding of VANC data such as:

Metadata
Closed-captions
Broadcast Flag
Interactive TV triggers/ data
Proprietary data

Operators can monitor data contained within content acquired from external sources. They can also verify that mandatory content such as closed captioning and other data services such as audio metadata are carried throughout their digital video plant.

Designed to the Plug & Play PCI card standard, the TTX890 facilitates easy integration into a wide array of PC-based solutions. The card's hardware architecture allows high-speed processing of large volumes of data with minimal loading of the PC processor. Multiple TTX890s can be used within a PC providing a s caleable solution to address multi-channel applications.

When combined with Norpak encoders and software applications like WHAZ-itT VANC Monitor, the TTX890 can form an integral part of systems that monitor, filter, substitute, or modify VANC content, or bridge data between video formats.

An available software developer's kit (SDK) allows users to harness the power of the TTX890 in custom decoding, monitoring, and logging applications.

TV delivery operators, content creators, system integrators and OEMs are encouraged to take full advantage of the many features of the TTX890 and investigate custom applications with Norpak Corporation.
