Las Vegas Based Adrienne Electronics Corp Unveils Advanced Time Code Boards at NAB 2011

Las Vegas, Nevada - April 11, 2011 - Adrienne Electronics Corporation, having just celebrated its 25th Anniversary last month, is pleased to introduce its Sixth Sixth Generation of time code boards for personal computers. The card circuits are designed to work with SD-SDI, HD-SDI and even 3G-SDI signals. The new product line carries the ‘PCIeSDV’ label (indicating in general that the model supports Serial Digital Video).

Tracey Ruesch, President of Adrienne Electronics, states, “We have designed these boards to be very handy and made an unusually powerful set of abilities available to specialized applications. This is a kind of a ‘Swiss army knife’ for time code. At a minimum, the basic abilities of the new device family allow software developers to see and manipulate the non-picture parts of the streaming SDI signal (ie: ancillary data) as it passes through, in real time.”

From the general list of capabilities shown below, there are a substantial number of different models that can be made on the PCIeSDV platform. Note that not all of the capabilities can be present at the same time on the board as some "possible" combinations and features require the same input or output connector. Some features also use the same section of the circuit and cannot be simultaneously assigned. In general, because of careful circuit engineering and design considerations, it is possible to have many different combinations of SDI (in/out), LTC (in/out), audio (out) and IRIG (in/out).

The PCIeSDV devices are physically small enough to fit in both full-size (standard) and low profile PCI Express (x1) slots by switching interchangeable brackets.

Possible Capabilities List:

  • LTC reader for up to four different channels at once
  • LTC generator for up to four different channels at once
  • Read SDI embedded time code or other embedded signals from up to three different streams at once
  • Embed time code from LTC reader or internal software controlled generator source into an SDI stream
  • Translate SDI time code into LTC
  • Monitor embedded audio (stereo/mono) of an SDI signal
  • Read the closed caption data embedded in an SDI signal
  • Create/embed closed captions into an SDI stream
  • Read IRIG-B time code (NOTE: IRIG is used in the Aerospace industry)
  • Generate IRIG-B time code
  • Translate IRIG to LTC or LTC to IRIG.
  • Create up to three channels of SDI test signals
  • Embed visible time code numbers into SDI video
  • Analog and SDI video sync detection
  • Plus more
