In 12G-SDI mode, the RXOUTCLK/TXOUTCLK frequency is 297 MHz (or 297/1.001 MHz). Depending on the 12G-SDI mapping mode used, there may be either eight or sixteen active elementary data streams. When eight elementary data streams are active, the data streams run at half the RXOUTCLK/TXOUTCLK frequency and the rx_ce_out and tx_ce have 50% duty cycles. When sixteen elementary data streams are active, the data streams run at one quarter the RXOUTCLK/TXOUTCLK frequency and the rx_ce_out and tx_ce have 25% duty cycles.

The timing diagram for 8-way interleave on a 12G-SDI RX interface is identical to Figure 4 , the 8-way interleave 6G-SDI RX interface with the exception that rx_clk run at 297 MHz for 12G-SDI.

The following is a timing diagram for the receiver in 12G-SDI mode when receiving a signal containing sixteen data streams. The rx_clk frequency is 297 MHz or 297/1.001 MHz. The rx_ce_out signal is asserted one clock cycle out of every four (25% duty cycle). The sixteen received data streams are output on rx_ds1 through rx_ds16. Not all sixteen data streams are shown in the diagram, but they are all active. The following diagram shows the EAV being received and the rx_trs and rx_eav behave the same as with other SDI standards. Line numbers are captured from all sixteen data streams and output on rx_ln_ds1 through rx_ln_ds16. CRC errors are detected individually for all sixteen data streams and indicated on the rx_crc_err_ds1 through rx_crc_err_ds16 outputs. The line number and CRC error outputs are not shown on the timing diagram, but their timing is the same as with other SDI modes relative to the position of the EAV and LN words in the data streams.

The timing diagram for 12G-SDI TX with eight interleaved data streams is identical to the above diagram, the 8-way interleaved 6G-SDI transmitter timing diagram, except that the tx_clk frequency is 297 MHz.

The following diagram is a timing diagram for the transmitter in 12G-SDI mode when transmitting a signal containing sixteen data streams. The tx_clk frequency is 297 MHz or 297/1.001 MHz. The tx_ce input must be asserted every other clock cycle. The sixteen data streams being transmitted must be on tx_ds1_in through tx_ds16_in. When either line number insertion or ST 352 packet insertion is enabled (through the tx_insert_ln port), line numbers must be supplied on the eight line number input ports tx_line_ch0 through tx_line_ch7. There is one line number input port for each pair of data streams. The line number on tx_line_ch0 are associated with data streams tx_ds1_in and tx_ds2_in, tx_line_ch1 with tx_ds3_in and tx_ds4_in, and so on. As with the other SDI modes, the line number values on the line number inputs must be stable by the rising edge of the tx_clk on which the XYZ words of the EAVs enter the data stream input ports and must remain stable until the beginning of the SAV, in other words, for the duration of the HANC interval on each line. If ST 352 packet insertion is enabled, the line numbers must be supplied to the transmitter as just described and the user data words for the ST 352 packets must also be supplied on the tx_st352_data_ch0 through tx_st352_data_ch7 input ports. There is one ST 352 user data input port for each pair of data streams. ST 352 packets are only inserted into the odd numbered data stream of each pair (the Y data stream). The ST 352 data supplied on tx_st352_data_ch0 is associated with data stream 1 (tx_ds1_in ), tx_st352_data_ch1 is associated with data stream 3 (tx_ds3_in ), and so on. The data on these ST 352 data input ports must meet the same timing requirements as the line numbers. You can insert ST3 52 into the C data stream, shown in the waveform. You must supply the ST 352 payload on tx_st352_data_ch0_c to tx_st352_data_ch7_c, depending on the available data streams.
