comb filter, VBI data slicer and high performance scaler
Product specification
SAA7114
1 FEATURES
1.1 Video decoder
• Six analog inputs, internal analog source selectors, e.g.
6 × CVBS or (2 × Y/C and 2 × CVBS) or (1 × Y/C and
4 × CVBS)
• Two analog preprocessing channels in differential
CMOS style inclusive built-in analog anti-alias filters
• Fully programmable static gain or Automatic Gain
Control (AGC) for the selected CVBS or Y/C channel
• Automatic Clamp Control (ACC) for CVBS, Y and C
• Switchable white peak control
• Two 9-bit video CMOS Analog-to-Digital Converters
(ADCs), digitized CVBS or Y/C signals are available on
the expansion port
• On-chip line-locked clock generation in accordance with
“ITU 601”
• Digital PLL for synchronization and clock generation
from all standards and non-standard video sources e.g.
consumer grade VTR
• Requires only one crystal (32.11 or 24.576 MHz) for all
standards
• Horizontal and vertical sync detection
• Automatic detection of 50 and 60 Hz field frequency,
and automatic switching between PAL and NTSC
standards
• Luminance and chrominance signal processing for
PAL B, G, D, H, I and N, combination PAL N, PAL M,
NTSC M, NTSC-Japan, NTSC 4.43 and SECAM
• Adaptive 2/4-line comb filter for two dimensional
chrominance/luminance separation:
– Increased luminance and chrominance bandwidth for
all PAL and NTSC standards
– Reduced cross colour and cross luminance artefacts
• PAL delay line for correcting PAL phase errors
• Independent Brightness Contrast Saturation (BCS)
adjustment for decoder part
• User programmable sharpness control
• Independent gain and offset adjustment for raw data
path.
1.2 Video scaler
• Horizontal and vertical downscaling and upscaling to
randomly sized windows
• Horizontal and vertical scaling range: variable zoom to
1⁄64 (icon) (it should be noted that the H and V zoom are
restricted by the transfer data rates)
• Anti-alias and accumulating filter for horizontal scaling
• Vertical scaling with linear phase interpolation and
accumulating filter for anti-aliasing (6-bit phase
accuracy)
• Horizontal phase correct up and downscaling for
improved signal quality of scaled data, especially for
compression and video phone applications, with 6-bit
phase accuracy (1.2 ns step width)
• Two independent programming sets for scaler part, to
define two ‘ranges’ per field or sequences over frames
• Fieldwise switching between decoder part and
expansion port (X port) input
• Brightness, contrast and saturation controls for scaled
outputs.
1.3 Vertical Blanking Interval (VBI) data decoder
and slicer
• Versatile VBI data decoder, slicer, clock regeneration
and byte synchronization e.g. for World Standard
Teletext (WST), North American Broadcast Text System
(NABTS), close caption, Wide Screen Signalling (WSS),
etc.
1.4 Audio clock generation
• Generation of a field-locked audio master clock to
support a constant number of audio clocks per video
field
• Generation of an audio serial and left/right (channel)
clock signal.
