If I read the LMH0031 datasheet correctly, it will power up operational, and decode its standard supported formats automatically without any initializing operations on the control bus.
I am planning to deserialize a SMPTE 292M HD-SDI video signal using a LMH0034 connected directly to LMH0031, and it looks like the LMH0031 VCLK and DV outputs will be functional immediately after power up. Is that correct? I don't need a microcontroller doing any operations with the control bus, as long as I don't want to use other functions and features?
