GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ADV7125 (ADV®) is a triple high speed, digital-to-analog
converter on a single monolithic chip. It consists of three high
speed, 8-bit video DACs with complementary outputs, a
standard TTL input interface, and a high impedance, analog
output current source.
The ADV7125 has three separate 8-bit-wide input ports. A
single +5 V/+3.3 V power supply and clock are all that are
required to make the part functional. The ADV7125 has
additional video control signals, composite
SYNC
as well as a power save mode.

CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
The ADV7125 contains three 8-bit DACs, with three input
channels, each containing an 8-bit register. Also integrated
on board the part is a reference amplifier. The CRT control
functions,
BLANK
and
SYNC
, are integrated on board the
ADV7125.
DIGITAL INPUTS
There are 24 bits of pixel data (color information), R0 to R7,
G0 to G7, and B0 to B7, latched into the device on the rising
edge of each clock cycle. This data is presented to the three 8-bit
DACs and then converted to three analog (RGB) output waveforms (see Figure 4).

The ADV7125 has two additional control signals that are latched
to the analog video outputs in a similar fashion.

are each latched on the rising edge of CLOCK to maintain
synchronization with the pixel data stream.
The
BLANK
and
SYNC
functions allow for the encoding of
these video synchronization signals onto the RGB video output.
This is done by adding appropriately weighted current sources
to the analog outputs, as determined by the logic levels on the
BLANK
and

digital inputs.

All these digital inputs are specified to accept TTL logic levels.
CLOCK INPUT
The CLOCK input of the ADV7125 is typically the pixel clock
rate of the system. It is also known as the dot rate. The dot rate,
and thus the required CLOCK frequency, is determined by the
on-screen resolution, according to the following equation:
where:
Horiz Res is the number of pixels per line.
Ver t Res is the number of lines per frame.
Refresh Rate is the horizontal scan rate. This is the rate at which
the screen must be refreshed, typically 60 Hz for a noninterlaced
system, or 30 Hz for an interlaced system.
Retrace Factor is the total blank time factor. This takes into
account that the display is blanked for a certain fraction of the
total duration of each frame (for example, 0.8).
Therefore, for a graphics system with a 1024 × 1024 resolution,
a noninterlaced 60 Hz refresh rate, and a retrace factor of 0.8,
Dot Rate = 1024 × 1024 × 60/0.8 = 78.6 MHz
The required CLOCK frequency is thus 78.6 MHz. All video
data and control inputs are latched into the ADV7125 on the
rising edge of CLOCK, as previously described in the Digital
Inputs section. It is recommended that the CLOCK input to the
ADV7125 be driven by a TTL buffer (for example, the 74F244).

VIDEO SYNCHRONIZATION AND CONTROL
The ADV7125 has a single composite sync (
control. Many graphics processors and CRT controllers have the
ability to generate horizontal sync (HSYNC), vertical sync
(VSYNC), and composite
SYNC
.
In a graphics system that does not automatically generate a
composite
SYNC
signal, the inclusion of some additional logic
circuitry enables the generation of a composite

output, thus encoding video synchronization information onto
the green video channel. If it is not required to encode sync
information onto the ADV7125, the

REFERENCE INPUT
The ADV7125 contains an on-board voltage reference. The V
pin should be connected as shown in Figure 10.
A resistance, R

Equation 1 and Equation 2 for the ADV7125.

ANALOG OUTPUTS
The ADV7125 has three analog outputs, corresponding to the
red, green, and blue video signals.
The red, green, and blue analog outputs of the ADV7125 are
high impedance current sources. Each one of these three RGB
current outputs is capable of directly driving a 37.5 load, such
as a doubly terminated 75 coaxial cable. Figure 6 shows the
required configuration for each of the three RGB outputs
connected into a doubly terminated 75 load. This arrangement
develops RS-343A video output voltage levels across a 75
monitor.
A suggested method of driving RS-170 video levels into a 75
monitor is shown in Figure 7. The output current levels of the
DACs remain unchanged, but the source termination resistance,

DACS
The ADV7125 contains three matched 8-bit DACs. The DACs
are designed using an advanced, high speed, segmented architecture. The bit currents corresponding to each digital input are
routed to either the analog output (bit = 1) or GND (bit = 0)
by a sophisticated decoding scheme. Because all this circuitry
is on one monolithic device, matching between the three DACs
is optimized. As well as matching, the use of identical current
sources in a monolithic design guarantees monotonicity and

used for video information). Any one of the three channels, red,
green, or blue, can be used to input the digital video data. The
two unused video data channels should be tied to Logic 0. The
unused analog outputs should be terminated with the same load
as that for the used channel, that is, if the red channel is used
and IOR is terminated with a doubly terminated 75 load
(37.5 ), IOB and IOG should be terminated with 37.5
resistors (see Figure 8).

VIDEO OUTPUT BUFFERS
The ADV7125 is specified to drive transmission line loads. The
analog output configuration to drive such loads is described in the
Analog Outputs section and illustrated in Figure 9. However,
in some applications, it may be required to drive long transmission line cable lengths. Cable lengths greater than 10 meters can
attenuate and distort high frequency analog output pulses. The
inclusion of output buffers compensates for some cable distortion.
Buffers with large full power bandwidths and gains between
two and four are required. These buffers also need to be able
to supply sufficient current over the complete output voltage
swing. Analog Devices produces a range of suitable op amps for
such applications. These include the AD843, AD844, AD847,
and AD848 series of monolithic op amps. In very high frequency
applications (80 MHz), the AD8061 is recommended. More
information on line driver buffering circuits is given in the
relevant op amp data sheets.
Use of buffer amplifiers also allows implementation of other
video standards besides RS-343A and RS-170. Altering the gain
components of the buffer circuit results in any desired video level.

PCB LAYOUT CONSIDERATIONS
The ADV7125 is optimally designed for lowest noise performance, both radiated and conducted noise. To complement the
excellent noise performance of the ADV7125, it is imperative
that great care be given to the PCB layout. Figure 10 shows a
recommended connection diagram for the ADV7125.
The layout should be optimized for lowest noise on the
ADV7125 power and ground lines. This can be achieved by
shielding the digital inputs and providing good decoupling.
Shorten the lead length between groups of V
and GND pins
AA
to minimize inductive ringing.
It is recommended to use a 4-layer printed circuit board with a
single ground plane. The ground and power planes should
separate the signal trace layer and the solder side layer. Noise
on the analog power plane can be further reduced by using
multiple decoupling capacitors (see Figure 10). Optimum
performance is achieved by using 0.1 F and 0.01 F ceramic
capacitors. Individually decouple each V
pin to ground by
AA
placing the capacitors as close as possible to the device with the
capacitor leads as short as possible, thus minimizing lead
inductance. It is important to note that while the ADV7125
contains circuitry to reject power supply noise, this rejection
decreases with frequency. If a high frequency switching power
supply is used, pay close attention to reducing power supply
noise. A dc power supply filter (Murata BNX002) provides EMI
suppression between the switching power supply and the main
PCB. Alternatively, consideration can be given to using a 3terminal voltage regulator.
DIGITAL SIGNAL INTERCONNECT
Isolate the digital signal lines to the ADV7125 as much as
possible from the analog outputs and other analog circuitry.
Digital signal lines should not overlay the analog power plane.
Due to the high clock rates used, long clock lines to the
ADV7125 should be avoided to minimize noise pickup.
Connect any active pull-up termination resistors for the digital
inputs to the regular PCB power plane (V
analog power plane.

ANALOG SIGNAL INTERCONNECT
Place the ADV7125 as close as possible to the output connectors,
thus minimizing noise pickup and reflections due to impedance
mismatch.
The video output signals should overlay the ground plane and
not the analog power plane, thereby maximizing the high
frequency power supply rejection.

For optimum performance, the analog outputs should each
have a source termination resistance to ground of 75 (doubly
terminated 75 configuration). This termination resistance
should be as close as possible to the ADV7125 to minimize
reflections.
