7FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The SAA4978H consists of the following main functional
blocks:
• Analog preprocessing and analog-to-digital conversion
• Digital processing at 1fH level
• Digital processing at 2fH level
• Digital-to-analog conversion
• Line-locked clock generation
• Crystal oscillator
• Control interfacing I2C-bus and SNERT
• Register I/O
• Programmable Signal Positioner (PSP)
• 80C51 microcontroller core
• Board level testability provisions.
7.1Analog input blocks
7.1.1GAIN ELEMENTS FOR AUTOMATIC GAIN CONTROL
(9 dB RANGE)
A variable amplifier is used to map the possible YUV input
range to the analog-to-digital converter range e.g. as
defined for SCART signals.
According to this specification, a lift of 6 dB up to a drop of
3 dB may be necessary with respect to the nominal values.
The gain setting within the required minimum 9 dB range
is performed digitally via the internal microcontroller.
For this purpose a gain setting digital-to-analog converter
is incorporated. The smallest step in the gain setting
should be hardly visible on the picture, this can be met with
smaller steps of 0.4%/step.
Luminance and chrominance gain settings can be
separately controlled. The reason for this split is that
U and V may have already been gain adjusted by an
Automatic Chrominance Control (ACC), whereas
luminance is to be adjusted by the SAA4978H AGC.
However, for RGB originated sources, Y, U and V should
be adjusted with the same AGC gain.
7.1.2C
LAMP CIRCUIT, CLAMPING Y TO DIGITAL LEVEL 32
AND UV TO 0(TWOS COMPLEMENT)
A clamp circuit is applied to each input channel, to map the
colourless black level in each video line (on the sync back
porch) to level 32 at 9 bits for Y and to the centre level of
the converters for U and V. During the clamp period, an
internally generated clamp pulse is used to switch-on the
clamp action.

Page 11
Philips SemiconductorsProduct specification
Picture Improved Combined Network
(PICNIC)
A voltage controlled current source construction, which
references to voltage reference points in the ladders of the
analog-to-digital converters, provides a current on the
input of the YUV signals in order to bring the signals to the
correct DC value. This current is proportional to the DC
error, but is limited to±150 µA. It is essential that the clamp
current becomes zero with a zero error and that the
asymmetry between positive and negative clamp currents
is limited to within 10%. When the clamping action is off,
the residual clamp current should be very low, so that the
clamp level will not drift away within a video line.
The clamp level in the Y channel has a minimum value of
600 mV to ensure undisturbed clamping for maximum
Y input signals with top sync levels up to 600 mV. In order
to improve common mode rejection it is recommended to
connect the same source impedance as used in the YIN
input at the DIFFIN input to ground.
7.1.3A
A 3rd-order linear phase filter is applied to each of the
Y, U and V channels. It provides a notch on f
at Y, U and V) to strongly prevent aliasing to low
frequencies, which would be the most disturbing.
The bandwidth of the filters is designed for −3 dB at
5.6 MHz. The filters can be bypassed if external filtering
with other characteristics is desired. In the bypass mode
the gain accuracy of the front-end part is 4% instead of 8%
for the filter-on mode.

7.2.2Y
The Y samples can be shifted onto 4 positions with
respect to the UV samples. This shift is meant to account
for a possible difference in delay prior to the SAA4978H,
e.g. from a prefilter in front of an analog-to-digital
converter. The zero delay setting is suitable for the
nominal case of aligned input data according to the
interface format standard. One setting provides one
sampleless delay in Y, the other two settings provide more
delay in the Y path.
7.2.3T
A circuit is added in the luminance channel to suppress the
typical multi-step trip level noise. This majority follower
filter compares the neighbouring pixels to a +1 or −1 LSB
difference. If the majority of these differences is +1 then 1
is added to the actual pixel. If the majority of these
differences is −1 then 1 is subtracted from the actual pixel.
The number of pixels included in the filter is selectable;
1 (bypass), 3, 5, 7 or 9.
7.2.4N
The non-linear phase filter adjusts for possible group delay
differences in the luminance channel. The filter coefficients
are [−L × (1 − u); 1 + L; −L × u]; where L determines the
strength of the filter and u determines the asymmetry.
The effect of the asymmetry is that for higher frequencies
the delay is decreased for u ≤ 0.5. Settings are provided
for L = 0,1⁄16,2⁄16and3⁄16 and u = 0,1⁄4and1⁄2.
DELAY
RANSIENT NOISE SUPPRESSION
ON-LINEAR PHASE FILTER AFTER ADC
Three identical multi-step type analog-to-digital converters
are used to convert the Y, U and V inputs with a 16 MHz
data rate. The ADCs have a 2-bit overflow detection, and
an underflow detection for U and V, to be used for AGC
control. The 2 bits are coded for one in-range level and
three overflow levels; 1 dB, 1 to 2 dB and 2 to 3 dB.
7.2Digital processing blocks
7.2.1O
VERFLOW DETECTION
A histogram of the three overflow levels is made every field
and can be read in a 2-byte accuracy. An input selector
defines which ADC is monitored.
In the event of U or V selection the underflow information
is also added to the first histogram level, in this way the
data can be handled as out-of-range information.
The histogram content provides information for the AGC to
make an accurate estimate of the decrease in gain, in the
event of overflow for luminance or out-of-range detection
for U and V.

7.2.54 MH
Z NOTCH
The 4 MHz notch provides a zero on1⁄4 of the sample
frequency. With fs= 16 MHz the notch is thus at 4 MHz.
The 3 dB notch width is 2 MHz. The filter coefficients are
1
⁄8× [−1; 0; 5; 0; 5; 0; −1]. This filter gives a relative gain of
0.75 dB at 1.7 and 6.3 MHz.
The notch can be bypassed without changing the group
delay.
7.2.6D
IGITAL CLAMP CORRECTION FOR UV
During 32 samples within the active clamping the clamp
error is measured and accumulated to determine a
low-pass filtered value of the clamp error. A vertical
recursive filter is then used to further reduce this error
value. This value can be read by the microcontroller or be
used directly to correct the clamp error. It is also possible
for the microcontroller to give a fixed correction value.

7.2.74:4:4DOWNSAMPLED TO 4:2:2OR 4:1:1
4:4:4 data is downsampled to 4 : 2 : 2, by first filtering
with a [1; 0; −7; 0; 38; 64; 38; 0; −7; 0; 1] filter, before being
subsampled by a factor of 2. The U and V samples from
the 4 :2:2 data are filtered again by a [−1; 0; 9; 16; 9; 0;
−1] filter, before being subsampled a second time by a
factor of 2. Bypassing this function keeps the data in the
4:2:2 format.
7.2.8B
The chosen 4:1:1 or 4:2:2 formatted output data is
presented to bus A (YUV_A bus), consistent with the WEA
data enable signal. After the rising edge of WEA the first,
respectively second, data word contains the first phase of
the 4 :1:1 or 4:2:2 format, depending on the qualifier
respectively prequalifier mode of WEA. If the data has to
be formatted to 8 bits, a choice can be made between
rounding and dithered rounding. Dithered rounding may be
applied in the sense that every odd output sample has had
an addition of 0.25 LSB (relative to 8 bits) before
truncation and every even output sample has had an
addition of 0.75 LSB before truncation. In this way, on
average, correct rounding is realized (no DC shift).
Especially for low frequency signals, the resolution is
increased by a factor of 2 by the high frequency
modulation. The phase of dithering can be switched 180°
from line-to-line, field-to-field or frame-to-frame, in order to
decrease the visibility of the dithering pattern.
The not connected output pins of bus A, including WEA
(depending on the application), can be set to 3-state to
allow short-circuiting of these pins at board production.
Short-circuiting at not connected outputs can not be tested
by Boundary Scan Test (BST). For outputs in 3-state mode
it is not allowed to apply voltages higher than
V
DDO
7.2.9B
Bus B can accommodate the following formats; 4 :1:1
serial, 4:2:2 parallel, 4:2:2 double clock UYVY, all
synchronous and asynchronous. All external formats are
selectable with prequalifier or qualifier WEB. All of the
various input formats are converted to the internal 9 bits
4:2:2. For the 8-bit inputs, the LSB of the input bus
should be connected externally to a fixed logic level. In the
event of a 4:1:1 input, the U and V channels are
reformatted and upsampled by generating the extra
samples with a1⁄16× [−1; 9; 9; −1] filter. The other U and V
samples remain equal to the original 4 :1:1 sample
values.

SAA4978H
It is possible, in bus B reformatter, to invert the UV data so
that the SAA4978H can handle any polarity convention of
the UV data.
In the event of an asynchronous input the clock has to be
provided externally to pin CLKAS.
When applying an external PALplus decoder with 30 ms
processing delay, the vertical field start can be set via
software in a PSP register. For
format input, inversion of the MSB of the (synchronized)
bus B UV input can be selected. Synchronization signals
included in this format will be ignored.
7.2.10T
The Time Base Correction (TBC) and Sample Rate
Conversion (SRC) block provides a dynamically controlled
delay with an accuracy of up to1⁄64 of a pixel and a range
of −0.5 to +0.5 lines (plus processing delay).
The time base correction block has an input for skew data.
This skew data can be the phase error measured by a
HPLL, which is located in the PLL block of the SAA4978H.
The skew is used as a shift of the complete active video
part of a line. Added with a static (user controlled) shift, up
to1⁄2video line (32 µs) can be shifted in both directions,
related to a nominal1⁄2line delay.
For sample rate conversion, the delay is also varied along
the line with the subpixel accuracy. With a zero-order
variation of the delay, a linear compress or expand
function can be obtained. The range for the compression
factor is 0 to 2, meaning infinite zoom up to a compression
with a factor of 2. With a 2nd-order variation of the delay
added to the control, the compression factor can be
modulated with a parabolic shape, thus giving a panoramic
view option to display e.g. 4 : 3 video on a 16 : 9 screen or
vice versa.
The static shift may also be used to make the delay of the
SAA4978H plus periphery equal to an integer number of
lines. This is useful for 1fH applications, in which the
horizontal sync signal is not delayed with the video data.
This will then make the function of time base correction
obsolete for 1fH applications.
Another main task for the sample rate converter is to
resynchronize external data at a non-system clock sample
rate, for instance, MPEG decoder signals at 13.5 MHz.
A requirement for these signals is that they are line and
frame locked to the SAA4978H.

7.2.11NOISE REDUCTION
The noise reduction part consists of clamp noise reduction
and spatial noise reduction for low frequency noise. Within
this ensemble a two dimensional band split is used,
enabling also the functions of 2D low passing, adding the
multi Picture-In-Picture (multi PIP) function and 2D
peaking.
The clamp noise reduction is realized with an adaptive
temporal recursive filter. This filter will correct the DC level
of each line when it is varying from field-to-field in the
segments with the least likely movement. This clamp noise
filtering is intended to correct for clamp errors in a
complete chain, which cannot be removed with traditional
clamping on the back porch of the video. Clamp noise is
only reduced for luminance.
The spatial noise reduction is targeted for reduction of the
mid frequency noise spectrum, where adaptive filtering
combines pixels around the centre pixel and pixels from
the lines above in a recursive way. This spatial noise
reduction is only realized for luminance.
The 2D low-pass filter is a [1; 2; 1] filter in both the
horizontal and vertical direction. 2D high-pass is realized
by taking the centre tap and subtracting the 2D low-pass
output from it. Also added in the 2D high-pass is the
vertical low-passed data, which is subtracted from the
centre tap and multiplied by a user selectable gain
(0 to7⁄8). The 2D high-pass data is multiplied by a user
selectable gain of 0 and2⁄4to8⁄4 and cored before adding
it to the 2D low-pass branch for the 2D peaking function.
The HF signal bypasses both the LF temporal and the
spatial noise reduction, therefore sharpness in the high
frequencies is not reduced by the noise reduction parts.
The factor 0 on the HF signal yields a pure 2D low-passed
signal at the output. Multi PIP with pure subsampling of this
signal yields a much better result than without the low-pass
operation.
7.2.12H
Histogram modification consists of acquiring the histogram
of the luminance levels and correcting the luminance
transfer curve in order to provide more perceptual contrast
in the picture.
ISTOGRAM
SAA4978H
The histogram acquisition uses 32 baskets on the grey
scale from (ultra) black to (ultra) white. Pixels that are
found around the centre of a basket increase a counter for
that basket with the value 8, pixels that come around the
edge between two baskets increase the counters in both
baskets, such as 3 in the left one and 5 in the right one.
By this method, the quantization distortion is overcome
from having a discrete set of baskets.
Between acquisition of the histogram and correction of the
transfer curves, the microcontroller included in the
SAA4978H processes the counter values from the
32 baskets. The outcome of the microcontrollers algorithm
defines a differential transfer curve for the luminance. This
means that only differences from a 1 : 1 transfer curve are
coded. This is done in 32 LUT points, with a linear
interpolation for all input values in between the LUT points.
When changes are made to the luminance level of pixels,
the saturation has to be restored by using the same
relative gain for the U and V channels.
The histogram data also provides the information of the
minimum and maximum levels of Y, U and V, by which the
microcontroller can affect an AGC gain before the video
analog-to-digital conversion.
Another main part of the histogram is the display-bars
block. This block can insert up to 32 horizontal bars in the
YUV data path. Size, spacing, luminance, colour and
length are fully programmable. This can be used to
construct a visual display of the histogram or transfer
curve.
7.2.13S
Subtitle detection searches in a large area of the video
field for patterns that are characteristic for subtitles.
The expectation is to encounter in a video line a
considerable number of crossings through both a dark
grey and a light grey threshold and in its vicinity also
crossings in the other direction. This part is realized with
valid crossing (event) counting on each line in the target
area. This event value is stored for 128 lines in the subtitle
RAM, which is located at the top of the auxiliary RAM.
The subtitle logic has higher priority to access the subtitle
RAM than the microcontroller.
UBTITLE DETECTION
For economy, a subsampling is realized on the video with
a factor of 4 before the histogram is produced. From
line-to-line, a two pixel offset is used on the subsample
pattern.
1999 May 0313
The internal microcontroller can filter out this data. In a
number of adjacent lines, there must be a similar high
count value for the number of events. If this condition holds
then the detection of subtitles on that vertical position is
more definite.

This information can be used in combination with other
information on how to display the video source on the
screen. Such decisions are made entirely by the internal
microcontroller.
7.2.14B
Black bar detection searches in the upper and in the lower
part of the screen to respectively the last black line and the
first black line. To avoid disturbances of Logos in the video,
measurements can be performed in only the horizontal
centre part of the lines.
7.2.15B
The U and V samples from the 4 :2:2 data are filtered
again by a [−1; 0; 9; 16; 9; 0; −1] filter, before being
subsampled by a factor of 2. Bypassing this function keeps
the data in the 4 : 2 : 2 format.
Should it be required to format the data to 8 bits, a choice
can be made between rounding and dithered rounding.
Dithered rounding may be applied in the sense that every
odd output sample has had an addition of 0.25 LSB
(relative to 8 bits) before truncation and every even output
sample has had an addition of 0.75 LSB before truncation.
In this way, normally, correct rounding is realized (no DC
shift). Especially for low frequency signals, the resolution
is increased by a factor of 2 by the high frequency
modulation. The phase of dithering is switched 180° from
line-to-line, field-to-field or frame-to-frame in order to
decrease the visibility of the dithering pattern.
This block also performs the subsampling for multi PIP,
with subsampling factors of 1, 2, 3 and 4.
Another output format at bus C is Differential Pulse Code
Modulation (DPCM) 4 : 2 : 2. This data compression
method is applied on the U and V channels, and gives a
50% data reduction. In this way it is possible to convert a
4:2:2 picture to 2fH using a single 12-bit wide field
memory. This format is especially useful for graphics
conversion with high amplitude and high saturation input
signals. The not connected output pins of bus C including
WEC and IEC (depending on the application) can be set to
3-state to allow short-circuiting of these pins at board
production. Short-circuiting at not connected outputs can
not be tested by BST. For outputs in 3-state mode it is not
allowed to apply voltages higher than V

Bus D can handle 4 :1:1 external 8 or 9 bits, 4 : 2 : 2
external 8 or 9 bits, 4 : 2 : 2 internal 9 bits and DPCM
4:2:2.
Bus D is selectable in 1fH and 2fH mode. In 1fH mode the
internal input can also be used.
For dithered 8-bit luminance signals an undither block is
provided that restores the 9th bit for low frequency and low
noise. This is needed before the peaking circuit to prevent
amplification of the1⁄2fs dither modulation.
In the event of 8-bit inputs, the LSB of the input bus should
be externally connected to a fixed logic level.
In the event of a 4:1:1 input, the U and V channels are
reformatted and upsampled by generating the extra
samples with a1⁄16× [−1; 9; 9; −1] filter. The other U and V
samples remain equal to the original 4 :1:1 sample
values.
7.2.17P
Peaking in the SAA4978H can be used in two ways:
1. The first way is to give the luminance a linear boost of
2. The second way is to use the peaking dynamically, in
Basically, the three peaking filters (1 high-pass and
2 band-pass) filter the incoming luminance signal.
The high-pass filter is made with [−1; 2; −1] coefficients,
giving a maximum throughput at1⁄2fs (equals 8 MHz).
The first band-pass filter has [−1; 0; 2; 0; −1] coefficients,
giving a maximum throughput at1⁄4fs (equals 4 MHz).
The second band-pass filter has a cascade of
[−1; 0; 0; 2; 0; 0; −1] and [1; 2; 1] coefficients, giving a
maximum throughput at 2.38 MHz.
With a separate gain control on each of the peaking filters
[possible gain settings of (0,1⁄16,2⁄16,3⁄16,4⁄16,5⁄16,6⁄
and8⁄16)], a desired frequency characteristic can be
obtained with steps of maximum 2 dB gain difference at
the centre frequencies.

order to boost smaller details and provide less gain on
large details and edges. The effect is detail

overshoots and undershoots on large details and
edges.

The sum of the filter outputs is fed through a coring circuit
with a user definable transfer curve between
−7 and +7 LSB at a 12-bit level. The definition of the coring
LUT is realized with two control registers. Herein, for each
of the points in the transfer curve, the user can define an
output between 0 and the input value. For the LUT
points +7 (and −7), a choice can be made from
(−4) +4 to (−7) +7. By setting control bit CORING to LOW,
the coring transfer curve is switched to a coarse coring
which is only dependent on the threshold (see Fig.13).
The so formed peaking signal can be added to the original
luminance signal, the sum of which then becomes the 9-bit
output signal (black-to-white), with an additional DA shift
fitting within 10 bits.
For dynamic use of the peaking circuit, an additional gain
is provided on the peaking signal. This gain is made
dependent on the energy in the peaking signal.
To overcome an unwanted coring on structured small
signals, the output of the low-pass filter is also used to
monitor if the high frequency contents are large enough to
refrain from coring. Therefore the coring is set off if the HF
energy level rises above a user definable threshold.
SAA4978H
7.2.19DCTI
The Digital Colour Transient Improvement (DCTI) is
intended for U and V signals originating from a 4:1:1
source. Horizontal transients are detected and enhanced
without overshoots by differentiating, making absolute and
again differentiating the U and V signals separately. This
signal is used as a pointer to make a time modulation.
This results in a 4:4:4 UandV bandwidth. To prevent
third harmonic distortion, typical for this processing, a so
called ‘over the hill protection’ prevents peak signals from
becoming distorted. It is possible to control gain, width,
connect U and V and over the hill range via the
microcontroller.
At the output of the DCTI a post-filter is situated to make a
correction for the simple upsampling in DCTI which is a
linear interpolation [1; 2; 1]. The post-filter coefficients are
[−1; 2; 6; 2; −1], convolution of both filters gives
[−1; 0; 9; 16; 9; 0; −1]. This post-filter should only be used
when the DCTI is off, and the source material is 4 : 2 : 2
bandwidth.
7.2.20B
ORDER BLANK
Spectral measurements are performed with the
spectr_meas subpart, by calculating the sum of the
absolute values from a chosen one of the three (high-pass
and band-pass) filter outputs over a vertical window in a
video field. With this window it is possible to disable
subtitles. The maximum value of the chosen filter output
within a windowed video field is also monitored. For the
generally lower HF contents of the video signal, a
weighting by a factor 4 can be switched in, while
measuring on the High-Pass Filter (HPF).
7.2.18N
This non-linear phase filter adjusts for possible group
delay differences in the Y, U and V output channels, and
for sinus x/x bandwidth loss of the ADCs. The filter
coefficients are [−L × (1 − u); 1 + L; −L × u]; where
L determines the strength of the filter and u determines the
asymmetry. The effect of the asymmetry is that for higher
frequencies the delay is decreased for u ≤ 0.5. Settings
are provided for L = 0,1⁄8,2⁄8,3⁄8and u = 0,1⁄4,1⁄2.
ON-LINEAR PHASE FILTER BEFORE DAC
The border and blanking processing is operating at a
4:4:4 level, just before the analog-to-digital conversion.
Here it is possible to generate a blanking window and
within this window a border window. The blanking window
is used to blank the non-visible part of the output to the
clamp level. The border window is the visible part of the
video that contains no video, such as the sides in
compression mode, this part can be programmed to
display any luminance or colour level in an 8-bit accuracy;
pixel repetition is also possible here. In case of multi PIP
this block can generate separation borders in the
horizontal and vertical direction.

7.3.1T
Three identical DACs are used to convert Y, U and V with
a 32 or 16 MHz data rate.

A 3rd-order linear phase filter is applied to each of the Y,
U and V channels. It provides a notch on f
U and V) to strongly prevent aliasing to low frequencies,
which would be most disturbing. The filters can be
bypassed if external filtering with other characteristics is
desired. Bandwidth and gain accuracy are given in
Chapter 11.
7.3.3PLL
The PLL consists of a ring oscillator, Discrete Time
Oscillator (DTO) and digital control loop. The PLL
characteristic is controlled by means of the
microcontroller.
7.3.4SNERT
A SNERT interface is built-in to transform the parallel data
from the microcontroller into 1 or 2 Mbaud switchable
SNERT data. This interface is also capable of reading data
from the SNERT bus should it be required to access read
registers.
The read or write operation must be set by the
microcontroller. When writing to the bus, 2 bytes are
loaded by the microcontroller; one for the address, the
other for the data. When reading from the bus, 1 byte is
loaded by the microcontroller for the address, the received
byte is the data from the addressed SNERT location.
The SNERT interface replaces the standard UART
interface. In contrast to the 80C51 UART interface there
are additional control registers, other I/O pads and no byte
separation time between address and data. After
power-on reset the 1 Mbaud mode is active. Switching
baud rate during transmission should be avoided.
7.3.5PSP
For dynamically changing data such as timing signals, the
programmable signal positioner generates them on the
basis of parameters sent by the microcontroller. For the
reset function of the microcontroller, a watchdog timer is
also built-in that creates a reset pulse unless it is triggered
by a change in the Bone signal within a preset time
(1.05 s).

7.3.6M
The SAA4978H contains an embedded 80C51
microcontroller core including a 1 kbyte RAM and a
32 kbyte ROM. It also includes an I2C-bus user control
interface. For development reasons an external ROM can
be accessed with 64 kbyte maximum size. An external
emulator can be connected.
The main difference to most existing 80C51 derivatives is:
• 768 byte auxiliary RAM from which 128 bytes can be
accessed as subtitle RAM
• Interrupt vector address for the I2C-bus is 33H
• On-chip ROM code protection
• SNERT at 1 or 2 Mbaud with additional Sample
Frequency Registers (SFRs) instead of UART
• Host interface containing all control registers access
e.g. via MOVX instruction.
7.3.7B
Boundary scan test is implemented, according to
“IEEE standard 1149.1”
digital pins and will cover all connections from the
SAA4978H to other ICs that are also equipped with BST.
The connectivity of the analog YUV input/output pins can
also be tested with the use of BST.
The digital outputs UVAL, UVA0, UVA1, UVA2, UVA3,
YAL, UVCL, UVC0, UVC1, UVC2, UVC3, YCL, WEA,
WEC and IEC can be set in 3-state mode if not connected
in the application. This means that these outputs with
index 0 to 3 are set in 3-state if 4 :1:1 is chosen, and the
outputs with index L are set in 3-state if 8 bits output is
chosen.
7.3.8P
All digital blocks except PLL are reset by a HIGH level at
the reset pin. Only the watchdog counter is reset by the
falling edge of the reset pulse. The PLL needs no reset.
The frequency guard generates a single reset pulse with a
duration of 0.875 ms when the actual frequency enters the
desired range of 14 to 18 MHz. If the frequency leaves this
range then no reset pulse is generated.

Notes
1. With AGC at −3 dB, Y full ADC range is obtained at Vi= 1.41 V; with AGC at 6 dB, Y full ADC range is obtained at
Vi= 0.5 V; with AGC at −3 dB, U full ADC range is obtained at Vi= 1.89 V; with AGC at 6 dB, U full ADC range is
obtained at Vi= 0.67 V; with AGC at −3 dB, V full ADC range is obtained at Vi= 1.48 V; with AGC at 6 dB, V full ADC
range is obtained at Vi= 0.52 V; at AGC attenuation more than 0 dB, where the input signal has an amplitude above
the nominal value, the input processing and transfer function may have decreased specification.

3. Measurements taken using video analyzer VM700A at YUV output, control bit SEL_1FH (address 391H) set to
logic 1, internal analog filters off, AGC gain (addresses 302H, 303H and 304H) set to 074H, digital processing in
between, digital filters off, sampling frequency of 16 MHz.
4. Supply Voltage Ripple Rejection (SVRR) is a relative variation of the full scale analog input for a supply variation of
1
0.25 V over a frequency range from 20 Hz to 50 kHz. This includes
⁄2fV, fV, 2fV, fH and 2fH which are major load
frequencies.
5. Measurements carried out using Modulation Domain Analyzer HP53310A after change of control bit PLL_OPEN
(address 376H) from logic 1 to logic 0 (open to closed-circuit). Control bits PLL_CK (address 375H) set to logic 0.
Control bits PLL_CD (address 375H) set to 7.
6. The outputs are able to drive an external low-pass filter without slewing. In fH and 2fH this filter is of the type as
described in Fig.6. For calculating an output filter the typical output impedance is also given in Fig.6.
7. The output levels for U and V have 1 dB reserve headroom in case of a 75% saturated colour bar. The maximum
levels are 1.33 V + 1 dB = 1.49 V for U and 1.05 V + 1 dB = 1.18 V for V. Due to 1 dB headroom the typical AGC
setting to obtain 0 dB from input to output for U and V is 83.
8. The AC characteristics are in accordance with the I2C-bus specification for fast mode (clock frequency maximum
400 kHz). Information about the I2C-bus can be found in the brochure
“I2C-bus and how to use it”
(order number

14 SOLDERING
14.1Introduction to soldering surface mount
packages
This text gives a very brief insight to a complex technology.
A more in-depth account of soldering ICs can be found in
our
“Data Handbook IC26; Integrated Circuit Packages”
(document order number 9398 652 90011).
There is no soldering method that is ideal for all surface
mount IC packages. Wave soldering is not always suitable
for surface mount ICs, or for printed-circuit boards with
high population densities. In these situations reflow
soldering is often used.
14.2Reflow soldering
Reflow soldering requires solder paste (a suspension of
fine solder particles, flux and binding agent) to be applied
to the printed-circuit board by screen printing, stencilling or
pressure-syringe dispensing before package placement.
Several methods exist for reflowing; for example,
infrared/convection heating in a conveyor type oven.
Throughput times (preheating, soldering and cooling) vary
between 100 and 200 seconds depending on heating
method.
Typical reflow peak temperatures range from
215 to 250 °C. The top-surface temperature of the
packages should preferable be kept below 230 °C.
SAA4978H
If wave soldering is used the following conditions must be
observed for optimal results:
• Use a double-wave soldering method comprising a
turbulent wave with high upward pressure followed by a
smooth laminar wave.
• For packages with leads on two sides and a pitch (e):
– larger than or equal to 1.27 mm, the footprint
longitudinal axis is preferred to be parallel to the
transport direction of the printed-circuit board;
– smaller than 1.27 mm, the footprint longitudinal axis
must be parallel to the transport direction of the
printed-circuit board.
The footprint must incorporate solder thieves at the
downstream end.
• For packages with leads on four sides, the footprint must
be placed at a 45° angle to the transport direction of the
printed-circuit board. The footprint must incorporate
solder thieves downstream and at the side corners.
During placement and before soldering, the package must
be fixed with a droplet of adhesive. The adhesive can be
applied by screen printing, pin transfer or syringe
dispensing. The package can be soldered after the
adhesive is cured.
Typical dwell time is 4 seconds at 250 °C.
A mildly-activated flux will eliminate the need for removal
of corrosive residues in most applications.
14.3Wave soldering
Conventional single wave soldering is not recommended
for surface mount devices (SMDs) or printed-circuit boards
with a high component density, as solder bridging and
non-wetting can present major problems.
To overcome these problems the double-wave soldering
method was specifically developed.
1999 May 0353
14.4Manual soldering
Fix the component by first soldering two
diagonally-opposite end leads. Use a low voltage (24 V or
less) soldering iron applied to the flat part of the lead.
Contact time must be limited to 10 seconds at up to
300 °C.
When using a dedicated tool, all other leads can be
soldered in one operation within 2 to 5 seconds between
270 and 320 °C.
