Link Electronics DigiFlex 1190 SDI Frame Synchronizer with 1090 Rear Cell, 4x Output, Reference to Black Burst

Before diving into the technicalities, let's introduce the Link Electronics DigiFlex 1190 SDI Frame Synchronizer with 1090 Rear Cell, a reliable and advanced solution for digital signal synchronization. This high-quality device is designed to handle asynchronous component serial digital video input, which is de-serialized and stored into the onboard frame buffer.

The DigiFlex 1190 then reads the output from memory, aligning it with the timebase of the analog blackburst reference signal. This innovative process ensures precise synchronization of video and audio signals, crucial in professional broadcast, post-production, and live event environments.

The device's front panel features horizontal and vertical phase adjustments, providing control over the output timing relative to the reference. This feature enhances the flexibility and efficiency of the system, allowing for over 24 system configurations.

The DigiFlex 1190 is compatible with Link Electronics' A-to-D and D-to-A products, enabling synchronization of analog signals to a house reference. It also works seamlessly with the DigiFlex 1159, 1160, 1162, 1165, 1166, or 1167 to synchronize composite or component analog signals to the system.

LED indicators on the card edge provide real-time monitoring of Power, Video Presence Analog, Video Presence Digital, NTSC/PAL, and H Lock Analog. The 1190 can be used either ahead of or behind the conversion device, offering users a wide range of system flexibility.

The DigiFlex 1190 supports both PAL and NTSC reference inputs, with timing for both Horizontal and Vertical controlled from the front panel. It operates in the 1000 series frame in any module configuration, making it a full-featured product, not a sub-module.

In case of input video loss, the output will either be black or the last good frame of video, based on jumper selection. If the reference video is lost, the 1190 will use its own internal timebase with 2.5ppm stability standard. Additionally, the 1190 features automatic NTSC/PAL digital detection on the input signal, requiring the analog reference input to match the input signal.

In conclusion, the Link Electronics DigiFlex 1190 SDI Frame Synchronizer with 1090 Rear Cell is a durable, high-quality, and innovative solution for professional video and audio synchronization.
