GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The TDA9177 is an I2C-bus controlled sharpness
improvement IC with additional inputs for 6-bit
analog-to-digital conversion to facilitate additional
parameter measurement (e.g. ambient light control).
It should preferably be used in front of an RGB video signal
processor with YUV interface.
In combination with the TDA9170, it builds a high
performance and intelligent picture improvement solution.
The sharpness processor provides 1D luminance step
improvement and detail enhancement by smart peaking,
suitable for both 1fH and 2fH applications. The TDA9177
can be used as a cost effective alternative to (but also in
combination with) Scan Velocity Modulation (SVM).
An on-board 6-bit Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC) can
be used for interfacing two analog, low frequency voltage
signals to the I2C-bus.
The supply voltage is 8 V. The TDA9177 is mounted in a
24-pin SDIP envelope.
