HD/SD Up/Down and Cross Converter w/Digital and Analog Outputs

Features • High-quality up, down and cross format conversion • Single input auto standards detect SMPTE 292/259M

4

The 8024 is an extremely versatile HD/SD tool featuring advanced 10-bit format

conversion. The 8024 accepts dual-rate HD/SD SMPTE-292/259M SDI inputs and can up or down convert incoming signals and re-aspect to 4x3, 16x9 or user programmable aspect ratios. In addition, the 8024 can cross convert HD signals between 1080 and 720.

Both Digital and Analog HD/SD and XGA outputs are available.

The 8024 can frame rate convert 24 frame video to 60 frames, move interlace to progressive and back. The unit also has extensive user configurable reticule overlays. The 8024 has 10-bit video processing, advanced de-interlacing and motion compensation, with 12-bit analog encoding. The 8024 includes embedded audio pass through, with delay correction. The unit is controlled by the front control switches and LCD screen or controlled remotely via a PC interface.

Options: Redundant power supply, PC Remote control, Anton Bauer™ Gold Mount battery connector, and rack mount tray (holds 2 units).

Dual-Rate HD/SD 12-bit Analog to Digital Converter with Universal Inputs

The 8090 is a dual-rate HD/SD universal input full-featured, high-

quality 12-bit analog to 10-bit SDI converter with EDH. The 8090 accepts HD Component and SD Component, Composite and Y/C. Differential analog inputs are used for common mode noise rejection.

A 5-line adaptive comb or notch filter is used for Y/C separation in composite SD mode. SD inputs are oversampled to 54 MHz and the output circuitry includes a VCXO filter to reduce jitter. Full user digital proc. control, with user memory allows digital adjustment of Gain, DC Offset, Saturation and Hue.

Back to TOC

A/D Analog Composite, Y/C, Component to 10-bit SDI with EDH

The 5590 is an Industry Standard Digital Frame compliant full-featured high-quality analog to 10-bit serial digital converter with EDH. The 5590 accepts Composite, Y/C and Component YPbPr analog input signals and outputs SMPTE 259M 270 M-bit SDI with EDH. Differential inputs are included for ground loop rejection. A 4,3 or 2-line comb or notch filter is user configurable for Y/C separation in composite mode. All modes have 2X 8:4:4 input over sampling. An output jitter VCXO reduces 270 M-bit jitter down to 2Hz. Full user digital proc. control, with user memory allows digital adjustment of Gain, DC Offset, Saturation and Hue.

The 5540 is a full-featured, Industry Standard digital frame

compliant high-quality 10-bit SDI SMPTE 259M to Analog Composite, Y/C and Component YPbPr and RGB. The 10-bit encoding engine over-samples 4:2:2 to 4:4:4 for internal processing and then 4x oversamples the outputs to 16:16:16 for improved signal performance. An internal VCXO with Dejitter loop filter to 2Hz reduces digital jitter prior to encoding, improving burst stability on composite and Y/C signals. A reference circuit, color frames the 5540 for timed environments with full user digital proc. control.

About Cobalt Founded in 1997, Cobalt Digital Inc., is a leading designer and manufacturer of cost-effective conversion products. The current product line includes: HD/SD up/down and cross format converters; HDSDI to HD analog converters; a broad range of SD standalone 10-bit analog to digital and digital to analog converters; low cost 8-bit digital to analog converters; a range of plug-in cards that are compatible with industry standard rack frames. All products are CE approved for worldwide acceptance and Cobalt’s emphasis on product reliability is backed up with a 5 year warranty.

The Company started out building digital to analog converters for the sports remote trucks of NEP Supershooters, LP - one of the nation’s leading providers of remote television broadcast facilities for sports and entertainment. The products were so popular that the start up rapidly evolved into orders for thousands of converters from NEP, SWTV, Cross-Creek, Game-Creek, Juntunen, NCP and other sports production companies.

In addition to their use in “A list” sporting events (Olympic Games, Super Bowls, US Opens, New York Marathons etc.), Cobalt products are found in all of the U.S. broadcast networks, TV stations, cable operators, production and post-production companies, mobile/ENG vehicles, theme parks and a large number of corporate and industrial facilities.

Cobalt Digital’s goals have been to develop rugged, price competitive products with feature sets not available from the competition.

NASA has installed Cobalt converters on the space shuttle launch tower after testing them to military standards for emissions, vibration and shock. Cobalt’s innovative application of technology in its new 8021 HD/SD up/down and cross converter was recognized at the 2003 IBC show with the presentation of a STAR award (Superior Technology Award Recipient) by the industry publication TV Technology Europe. Cobalt Digital markets its products through a worldwide network of dealers, systems integrators and other partners. These partnerships continue to expand around the globe as the applications for Cobalt’s products continue to grow.

Cobalt Digital Inc. is a privately held company with its headquarters in Urbana, Illinois, U.S.A.
