FC-69 - Overview

3 Overview

The FC-69 is a high-performance HDMI audio embedder and de-embedder. The

device can embed analog audio into the HDMI output, or de-embed audio from the

HDMI input or from the HDMI output Audio Return Channel to S/PDIF and analog

audio outputs simultaneously.

The FC-69 lets you connect your HDMI source to an HDMI display and enjoy

audio on an external amplifier at the same time.

If the input audio is uncompressed, multi-channel PCM, the analog

audio port only transmits the front-left and front-right channels. If the

input audio is compressed, only digital audio is output and the

analog output is disabled.

In particular, the FC-69 features:

 A maximum data rate of 8.91Gbps (2.97Gbps per data channel)

 HDTV compatibility up to Ultra HD (4K)

 HDCP compliance

 HDMI support for ARC and up to 7.1 uncompressed audio channels

 Support for deep color

 An unbalanced audio output for de-embedded audio or de-embedding of

HDMI 1.4 ARC audio from the output

 S/PDIF digital audio output for de-embedded audio or for de-embedding of

HDMI 1.4 ARC audio from the output

 The ability to embed audio even when no video is present

 Re-Klocking—complete regeneration of HDMI video and clock signals

 HDMI power on the output follows the input, (that is, there is no power on the

output when there is no active input, with customizable delay)

 DIP-switches for control of embedding, EDID, HDCP and 5V output delay

 EDID locking and modification

 Support for CEC
