GS1578A Overview
The GS1578A is a second generation high-speed BiCMOS integrated circuit designed to drive one or two 75Ω co-axial cables. The GS1578A may drive data rates up to 1.485Gb/s and provides two selectable slew rates in order to achieve pliance to SMPTE 259M, SMPTE 344M and SMPTE 292M. The GS1578A accepts a LVPECL level differential input that may be AC coupled.
