The SDA 9415 is a new component of the Micronas MEGAVISION® IC set, which
enables the system to reduce large area and line flickering of interlaced TV standards.
The scan rate conversion to 100/120 Hz interlaced or 50/60 Hz progressive scan is
motion vector based. For the 100/120 Hz (50/60 Hz) conversion the SDA 9415 really
calculates 100/120 Hz (50/60 Hz) fields with continuous motion phases to avoid double
contour effects in the motion display. In the special case of movie sources, which have
a non-continuous motion phase, the SDA 9415 generates at the output an appropriate
sequence with a continuous motion phase („True Motion“).
Due to the frame based signal processing, the noise reduction has been greatly
improved. Furthermore different motion detectors for luminance and chrominance have
been implemented. For automatic controlling of the noise reduction parameters a noise
measurement algorithm is included, which measures the noise level in the picture or in
the blanking period. In addition a spatial noise reduction is implemented, which reduces
the noise even in the case of motion.
The SDA 9415 has two input channels, which can be used for different features like
Picture-in-Picture (maximum approximately 1/9 picture) and “Double-window/Splitscreen”. The two input signals can be scaled horizontally and vertically with variable
factors. Panorama modes will be supported.
Besides that an algorithm for the detection of letter box pictures is included. The SDA
9415 delivers the start and the end line of the active picture part of the input signal to an
external µC.
the full screen
Picture sharpness can be greatly improved by a LTI (luminance transition improvement)
or/and peaking and a CTI (colour transition improvement) algorithm. The resolution of
the output signals is 9 bit. The SDA 9415 has analog output signals.
The µC calculates the zoom factors for displaying the active picture part on
and sends this values back to the SDA 9415.

5.1Introduction
The SDA 9415 is the first single-chip Micronas MEGAVISION® feature box including
scan rate conversion and the necessary field memories, a second input channel for split
screen applications like picture-and-picture and digital-to-analog converters. The SDA
9415 has three application modes: the SRC (Scan Rate Conversion) mode, the SSC
(Split SCreen) mode and the MUP (MUlti Picture) mode.
The two input channels of the SDA 9415 are not equivalent. One input channel is always
the so called “master” channel and one input channel is always the so called “slave”
channel. Both channels are combined of the output side of the SDA 9415 in the “MUX”
block. The master channel is always the "synchronization" master of both channels.
In the SRC mode the SDA 9415 can be used as a high performance scan rate converter.
Scan rate conversion is done by a motion compensated algorithm known as Micronas
VDU (Vector Driven Up conversion). In addition a high resolution frame based joint-linefree picture-and-picture (maximum approximately 1/9 picture) can be displayed. The
figure below shows an example of the SRC mode.
Figure 4Principles of SRC mode

Page 24
SDA 9415 - B13 Preliminary Data Sheet
System description
For this usage the 6 Mbit eDRAM core is separated in two luminance fields and two
chrominance fields (either 4:2:0 or 4:1:1) and a memory area for luminance and
chrominance fields (4:1:1) [maximum circa 1/9 picture] for picture-in-picture applications.
The vector based scan rate conversion is possible for the master channel only.
For the SSC mode the 6 Mbit eDRAM core is split in two 3 Mbit areas, which are able to
contain a maximum of two luminance fields and two chrominance fields (either 4:2:0 or
4:1:1). The figure below shows different applications (“Double window”, “Zoom-in-zoom-
out”). In this case only a simple scan rate conversion (e.g. field doubling for interlaced
conversion: AABB) for both output channels is possible.

The MUP mode allows the combination of one life picture and a configuration of still
pictures. The figure below shows an application. In this case only a simple scan rate
conversion (e.g. field doubling for interlaced conversion: AABB or AAAA) is possible.

The behaviour of the master and the slave channel does not differ in general. Therefore
for further description of the master and the slave channel the figures are also valid for
both unless it is pointed out.

Inside of the SDA 9415 a field detection block is necessary for the detection of an odd
(A) or even (B) field. Therefore the incoming H-Sync H1 (delayed HINM/HINS signal,
delay depends on NAPIPDLM/NAPIPDLS and NAPIPPHM/NAPIPPHS) is doubled (H2
signal). Depending on the phase position of the rising edge of the VINM/VINS signal an
A (rising edge between H1 and H2) or B (rising edge between H2 and H1) field is
detected. For proper operation of the field detection block, the VINM/VINS must be
delayed depending on the delay of the HINM/HINS signal (H1). The figure below
explains the field detection process and the functionality of the VINDELM/VINDELS I²C
Bus parameter (inside the SDA 9415 the delayed VINM/VINS signal is called Vd and the
detected field signal is called Ffd).

AAABAAAB..., etc.). Therefore a special filtering algorithm is implemented, which can be
switched on by the I²C Bus parameter VCRMODEM/VCRMODES. It is recommended to
set the I²C Bus parameter VCRMODEM=1. In other case (VCRMODEM=0) an additional

the last to fields were identical. Due to the fixed storage places of the fields in the internal
memory block, this information is necessary for the scan rate conversion processing
("Output sync controller (OSCM/S)" on page 81, it is recommended in case of
VCRMODEM=0 to choose an adaptive operation mode).
The OPDELM I²C Bus parameter is used to adjust the outgoing V-Sync VOUT in relation

In case of CCIR 656 three modes are supported (FORMATM/FORMATS=11 means full
CCIR 656 support, including H-, V-Sync and Field signal, FORMATM/FORMATS=01
means only data processing, H- and V-Sync have to be added separately according
PAL/NTSC norm, FORMATM/FORMATS=10 means only data processing, H- and Vsync have to be added separately according CCIR656-PAL/NTSC norm). The
representation of the samples of the chrominance signal is programmable as positive
dual code (unsigned, I²C Bus parameter TWOINM/TWOINS=0) or two's complement
code (TWOINM/TWOINS=1, "I²C Bus" on page 123, I²C Bus parameter 0Bh,2Dh).
Inside the SDA 9415 all algorithms assume positive dual code.

Figure 9Explanation of 656 format
The Figure 10 explains the functionality of the SYNCENM/SYNCENS signal. The SDA
9415 needs the SYNCENM/SYNCENS (synchronization enable) signal, which is used to
gate the YINM/YINS, UVINM/UVINS as well as the HINM/HINS and the VINM/VINS
signal. This is implemented for frontends which are working with 13.5 MHz and a large
output delay time for YINM/YINS, UVINM/UVINS, HINM/HINS and VINM/VINS (e.g.
Micronas VPC32XX, output delay: 35 ns). For this application the half system clock
CLKM/CLKS (13.5 MHz) from the frontend should be provided at this pin. In case the
frontend is working at 27.0 MHz with sync signals having delay times smaller than 25 ns,
this input can be set to low level (SYNCENM/SYNCENS=
V
) (e.g. Micronas SDA 9206,
SS
output delay: 25 ns). Thus the signals YINM/YINS, UVINM/UVINS, HINM/HINS and
VINM/VINS are sampled with the CLKM/CLKS system clock when the SYNCENM/
SYNCENS input is low.
The Figure 10 shows the gated inputs signals YINMen, UVINMen, HINMen and
VINMen.

The Figure 12 shows a detailed block diagram of the input processing blocks. The input
signal can be vertically and horizontally compressed or horizontally expanded by a large
number of factors. Furthermore the input signal can be processed by different noise
reduction algorithms to reduce the noise in the signal. The noise measurement block
determines the noise level of the input signal. The letter box detection block finds the
start and end line of letter box pictures. The information can be used by a µC to calculate
zooming factors and to control the IC for resizing the picture for a full screen display on
16:9 tubes.

and INTVM/INTVS=0. In this case it is possible to switch on a low pass filter for the
chrominance data path by the I²C Bus parameter CHFILM/CHFILS (I²C Bus parameter,
03h, 25h). If CHFILM/CHFILS is equal to “0” or “2” the vertical filter for the chrominance
is switched off. If CHFILM/CHFILS is equal to “1” or “3” the vertical filter for the
chrominance is switched on (Table 17 "Input write I²C Bus parameter CHFILM/CHFILS" on page 42).
In addition a vertical peaking of the input signal is possible.

5.4.3.1Spatial noise reduction
Normally a spatial noise reduction reduces the resolution due to the low pass
characteristic of the used filter. Therefore the spatial noise reduction of the SDA 9415
works adaptive on the picture content. The low pas filter process is only executed on a
homogeneous area.

5.4.3.2Motion adaptive temporal noise reduction
The equation below describes the behaviour of the temporal motion adaptive noise
reduction filter. The same equation is valid for the chrominance signal. Depending on the
motion in the input signal, the K-factor Ky (Kuv) can be adjusted between 0 (no motion)
and 15 (motion) by the motion detector. The K-factor for the chrominance filter can be
either Ky (output of the luminance motion detector, TNRSEL=0) or Kuv (output of the
chrominance motion detector, TNRSEL=1). For the luminance and chrominance signal
the delay of the feed back path can be either a field delay (DTNRON=1) or a frame delay
(DTNRON=0) (block diagram of noise reduction).

5.4.4Noise measurement
The noise measurement algorithm can be used to change the I²C Bus parameters of the
temporal noise reduction processing depending on the actual noise level of the input
signal. This is done by the I²C Bus controller which reads the NOISEME value, and
sends depending on this value different I²C Bus parameter sets to the temporal noise
reduction registers of the SDA 9415. The NOISEME value can be interpreted as a linear
curve from no noise (0) to strong noise (30). Value 31 indicates an overflow status and
can be handled in different ways: strong noise or measurement failed.
Two measurement algorithms are included, which can be chosen by the I²C Bus
parameter NMALG. In case NMALG=1 the noise is measured during the vertical
blanking period in the line defined by NMLINE. For NMALG=0 the noise is measured
during the first active line. In the latter case the delay of the noise reduction algorithm
must be set to the frame difference value (DTNRON=0, I²C Bus sub address 1Ah). In
both cases the value is determined by averaging over several fields.
The Figure 18 shows an example for the noise measurement. The NMLINE I²C Bus
parameter determines the line, which is used in the SDA 9415 for the measurement. In
case of VINDEL=0 and NMLINE=0 line 3 of the field A and line 316 of the field B is

the top and bottom as well as on the right and on the left are visible. It is possible by
vertical and horizontal expansion to display the picture on the whole tube. Therefore only
the first line (Start Line of Active Area - SLAA) and the last line (End Line of Active Area
- ELAA) of the active area must be known. The letter box detection algorithm detects
SLAA and ELAA. Both I²C Bus parameters can be read out via I²C Bus. The µC of the
TV chassis can use both values to calculate the corresponding zoom factor for the
vertical expansion.

Based on the line types the first line of the active area (SLAA, I²C parameter 78h) and
the last line of the active area (ELAA, I²C parameter 79h) is determined. Furthermore the
information about reliability of the SLAA and ELAA value is determined. The reliability
information is readable by I²C Bus of the parameters STATUS_SLAA and
STATUS_ELAA. If STATUS_SLAA/STATUS_ELAA is equal “1” the SLAA/ELAA value
is reliable, otherwise the SLAA/ELAA value is not reliable.
In addition a global reliability signal RELY exists, which is also readable by I²C Bus. The
results of the letter box detection are reliable, if the RELY signal is read as “1”. The
“Reliability evaluation” block determines the RELY signal, which can be influenced by the
I²C Bus parameter TH_MUNSL, TH_AUNS and TH_ALB. The table below explains the
generation of the RELY signal. The thresholds TH_MUNSL, TH_AUNS and TH_ALB are
compared with internal counter values UNSLENGTH, UNSAMOUNT and LBAMOUNT,
respectively. If one of the three conditions is true, the RELY signal is set to not reliable.
UNSLENGTH contains the maximum length of consecutive lines with the line type UNS.
UNSAMOUNT contains the amount of lines with the line type UNS and LBAMOUNT
contains the amount of lines with the line type LB.

5.6.1Introduction
The Main Memory of the SDA 9415 has an overall capacity of 6 Mbit. It is divided into
two identical and independent 3 Mbit parts.
The Main Memory has 2 completely independent data inputs (master and slave channel)
to enable a multitude of PIP features. In general the channels are asynchronous having
2 separate clock PLLs (CLKM, CLKS). Reading of master and slave data for display is
performed using a third asynchronous clock (CLKD). In this way a decoupling of input
and output clocks is achieved.
The Main Memory supports different operation modes of the SDA 9415 by adapted data
configurations. The different modes are defined by the I²C Bus parameter MEMOP (I²C
Bus sub address 53h).

Additionally 3 fields of a decimated picture of the slave channel with the size of up to 1/
9 of the original format can be stored (4:1:1 or 4:2:0 format). In this mode motion
estimation and compensation (Micronas VDU algorithm) for the master channel is
supported (up to 30 MHz clock frequency). In parallel it is possible to insert the slave
channel at any display position using frame mode and without joint lines. Noise reduction
algorithm by recursive filtering is supported only for the master channel in SRC-Mode.
In SSC-Mode the data configuration of master and slave channel can be different.
Depending on the picture size it is possible to store only 1 field of luminance and
chrominance data or 2 fields. The data configuration can be defined by the I²C Bus
parameters ORGMEMM and ORGMEMS, respectively.

Having 2 fields available for the master channel joint line free display can be activated.
Storing 2 fields for both channels a complete joint line free display is possible. In both
cases a suitable shift of the output raster phase is necessary (especially for ’Double
Window’ / ’Split Screen’ / ’Picture And Picture’ / ’Side by Side’). In SSC mode field
repetition (Simple 100Hz AABB; Field repetition AAAA or BBBB) is used for interlaced
scan (100/120 Hz) rate conversion, ABAB modes are not supported. For progressive
scan conversion also only field based algorithms are possible (Simple 50Hz AA*, B*B;
Field repetition AA*, B*B). For the definition of the different scan rate conversion
algorithms compare "Operation mode generator" on page 87.
Positioning of the pictures on the display is done externally by specifying the start of
reading for both channels.
In MUP-Mode the configurations and functions for both channels are programmable
independently. Two fields of the master channel can be stored to achieve a joint line free
display of one decimated live picture. Applying smaller decimation factors only one field
can be stored and joint line free display is not possible any more. These 2 modes
correspond to SSC configuration for the master channel, AABB mode is supported.
For the second channel or for both channels any number of decimated fields can be
stored step by step. The horizontal positions of the pictures are adjustable in steps of 4
pixel, the vertical positions are also variable and have a step size of 2 lines. The width
and the height of a decimated picture depend on the corresponding decimation factors.
A maximum of 1 picture per channel can be live. Only field repetition (AAAA, BBBB) is
supported in this mode. Other display modes cause raster artefacts in live pictures. Joint
lines are also not removed in live pictures.
A special MUP-Mode based on SSC memory configuration enables storing of 2 fields of
a decimated still picture. The fields are calculated using only one input field for
decimation. The generated lines are interpreted alternating as A- and B-lines. The
described method improves vertical resolution of still pictures clearly without causing
motion artefacts. The limited memory capacity does not allow to fill the complete display
with decimated pictures created with the described method using only one channel. The
different configuration can be selected by the I²C Bus parameter VERRESM and
VERRESS, respectively.

A typical animated transition to a double window display can be divided into two parts:
changing the operation mode from SRC to SSC (figure 26 on page 67) and changing the
picture sizes and positions continuously according to a double window display (figure27 on page 68). In SSC mode no vector driven up conversion modes are possible. Only
field based algorithms are supported. The corresponding I²C commands are
summarized in Table 56 and Table 57.

Starting in SRC mode with a PIP insertion (step 1) at first a field based up conversion
mode must be chosen for both channels, e.g. AABB conversion for interlaced modes and
intrafield interpolation for progressive modes (step 2). Now the capacity for the master
channel can be reduced to 1 field (step 3). The free memory capacity is used to write the
slave data at two address areas in parallel corresponding to SRC-PIP configuration and
SSC configuration. In step 4 the reading of the slave channel data is switched to SSC
configuration. In the last step also the master channel is switched to SSC mode. In this
configuration we can store 1 field of the master channel and 2 fields of the slave channel.
The Joint Line Controller can be activated and joint line free display is possible.
Reducing the size of the master picture and enlarging the slave picture size is performed
in step 6 in table . During this phase we can get problems with joint line free display of
the master picture until the horizontal width is below 512 pixel. Now also the master
channel is enabled to store 2 fields and joint line free display is possible again (step 7).
In this configuration double window display is performed.
During all steps positioning of both pictures is free programmable to enable multiple
variations of the animation.

Table 58Performing a master slave exchange
Starting with the double window configuration (figure 27 on page 68) the procedure is
continued with an animation to perform an exchange of the master and slave sources to
get a display like it is shown in figure 28 on page 69.
In step 8 the picture size of the master channel is decreased and the size of the slave
picture is increased continuously. When the width of the slave picture exceeds 512 pixel
only one field can be stored (step 9). Joint line free display of the slave channel is not
always possible in this configuration. When full size slave picture format and 1/9 master
picture size is reached (step 10) an exchange of master and slave channel is possible.
Unstable picture phases can be avoided when the display raster phase is adapted to the
slave channel before the hardware exchange of both sources is done. For display phase
raster shifting see "Master slave switch" on page 72.
Now we can activate the SRC mode again. At first we just change the mode maintaining
the field based conversions (step 12). Then the slave data configuration of the memory
is changed to SRC configuration (step 13) and at last the master channel memory
capacity is enlarged to 2 fields (step 14) and frame based up conversion modes are
enabled (step 15).

A special circuit is implemented to achieve a joint line free display in SSC mode (e.g.
Double Window Display). This circuit synchronizes the two input sources and removes
the joint lines by automatic controlled shifting of the display raster phase. This procedure
enlarges the value of OPDELM resulting in an delayed start of the output processing.
The I²C Bus parameters RSHFTM and RSHFTS enable joint line free display for master
and slave channel, separately. SHFTSTEP fixes the amount of lines which is added to
OPDELM with each output frame. The readable I²C Bus parameter SHIFTACT
signalizes the progressing shifting operation.
It is recommended to enable the registers RSHFTM and RSHFTS in all application
modes.

Master slave exchange means an animated exchange of the master and slave picture
source without visible synchronization problems of the deflection PLL compared with a
hard switch between both sources. To avoid this synchronization problem the display
raster phase is slowly shifted to a position that fits to the slave channel sync pulses. Then
the exchange can be done without visible artefacts. For the animation see
"Configuration switch" on page 65.
What to do to perform a master slave switch:
1.I²C Parameter MASLSHFT must be set. Shift process is started.
2.The I²C output signal SHIFTACT must be observed. After setting MASLSHFT is
becomes ’1’ and signalizes that the shift process is active. When it becomes ’0’ the shift
process is finished and the desired phase of the display raster is obtained.
3.At the same time exchanging of master and slave inputs and setting of I²C parameter
MASTSLA must be performed. Now the chip is synchronized to the former slave channel
that now has become the master.
4.At last the I²C Bus parameters MASLSHFT and MASTSLA should be reset.
5.6.8Refresh and still picture mode
The master and the slave channel picture can be frozen by the I²C Bus parameter
FREEZEM and FREEZES, respectively. The I²C Bus parameters REFRON and

The "Example for animation" on page 75 shows a possible application of the SDA
9415. 11 still pictures plus one life picture (cup of coffee) are located around a second
life (boat) picture (see picture number 1). The still pictures plus one life picture (cup of
coffee) are located in the slave memory and the life picture (boat) in the master memory.
The user wants to switch now between the cup of coffee and the boat channel. A
possible animation could look like this. The boat will be compressed and disappears
(number 2 and number 3). Due to the fact, that only background colour should be visible,
the parts of the life picture, which disappear after compression, will be overwritten with
the back ground colour. Afterwards the new channel is expanded and overwrites the
border colour (cup of coffee, number 4 and number 5).
To support this and other features several I²C Bus parameters exists, which will be
described in more detail afterwards.

which have a width of 32 pixels. The position (x,y) defined by the I²C Bus parameters is
defined by the equation below:

The IPOSYM and IPOSYS I²C Bus parameter specify the vertical position with a
resolution of one line for 4:1:1 format and 2 lines for 4:2:0 format for the master and slave
channel, respectively. The 5 MSBs of the IPOSXM and IPOSXS defines the horizontal
position with a resolution of 32 pixels (block resolution). The 3 LSBs of IPOSXM and
IPOSXS are used for fine positioning of the picture in a block with a resolution of 4 pixels.
Due to the fact, that only blocks can be written to the memory, the pixels left of the fine
positioning are filled up with border values (border values are defined by YBORDERM/
YBORDERS, UBORDERM/UBORDERS, VBORDERM/VBORDERS). If the number of
pixels is smaller as 32 pixels (block size), the missing pixels of a block are also filled up
with border values.

The Figure 32 shows a picture (boat, number 1), which is located with the left upper
corner at the position (x1,y1). The picture will be compressed in vertical and horizontal
direction and stored at the position (x2,y2). The vertical and horizontal compression
mechanism of the input signal was explained before (compare "Vertical and horizontalcompression (VHCOMM/VHCOMS)" on page 36). This result could look like as
showed in the picture number 2b. Parts of the original boat are still visible. Therefore in
addition the I²C Bus parameters LEBORDM/LEBORDS, RIBORDM/RIBORDS,
UPBORDM/UPBORDS and LWBORDM/LWBORDS exist. These I²C Bus parameters
specify the amount of pixels at the left side and the right side and the amount of lines at
the top and the bottom which has to be written in addition into the memory with coloured
border values (I²C Bus parameters YBORDERM, YBORDERS, UBORDERM,
UBORDERS, VBORDERM, VBORDERS). Then the result could look like as showed in
the picture number 2a (white border colour). The amount of pixels at the left side can be
defined by the I²C Bus parameters LEBORDM/LEBORDS (amount of border pixels = 4
* LEBORDM/LEBORDS) and the amount of pixels at the right side can be defined by the
I²C Bus parameter RIBORDM/RIBORDS (amount of border pixels = 4 * RIBORDM/
RIBORDS). The maximum amount of pixels, which can be written in addition, is 28 pixels
on each side. The I²C Bus parameters UPBORDM/S and LWBORDM/S specify the
amount of lines which has to be written in addition into the memory at the upper and
lower edge of the picture with coloured border values. The maximum amount of lines,
which can be written in addition, is 15 on each side. But there is a limitation that the sum
of UPBORDM/UPBORDS + LWBORDM/LWBORDS should not exceed 20 (PAL) lines.
In horizontal direction as mentioned before only blocks (32 pixels) can be written into the
memory. That means for instance if the LEBORDM parameter has a value bigger as zero
and the 3 LSBs of IPOSXM parameter are zero (start position at a begin of a block), that
the complete block on the left side of the block specified by IPOSXM will be filled with
border colour.

is located at the position (x1,y1) (defined by IPOSXM1, IPOSYM1). Specify the new
picture size. Set the corresponding I²C Bus parameters (APPLM2, ALPFM2, INTHM2,
DEZHM2, INTVM2, DEZVM2) to get the new picture size. Specify the new vertical and
horizontal position (x2,y2) (defined by IPOSXM2, IPOSYM2). Specify in addition the
amount of lines at the upper and lower edge, which has to be overwritten with border
values. In addition the amount of pixels at the left and right edge, which has to be
overwritten with border values (LWBORDM, UPBORDM, LEBORDM, RIBORDM). Send
the new values to the I²C interface. Remember that the reduction of the picture is limited
in horizontal and vertical direction, if the border should be overwritten with border colour.
The Figure 33 shows in detail what happens by means of a horizontal bar, which is
horizontally reduced. The width of the bar is 84 pixels (compare Figure 33). The position
x1, defined by IPOSX1 is for instance,
IPOSXM1=00001100b=12 => x1 = 32 * 1 + 4 * 4 = 48
The I²C Bus parameters LEBORDM and RIBORDM are both equal 0. The first block and
the last block are filled up with border values (black colour - background value).
The bar is compressed horizontally and the new width of the bar is 44 pixels. The new
position defined by IPOSX2 after the reduction step may be
IPOSXM2=00010001b=17=>x2 = 32 * 2 + 4 * 1 = 68.
That means the actual picture size is reduced for 40 pixels, 20 pixels at the left side (Left
Side = 68 - 48 = 20) and 20 pixels at the right side (Right Side = 132 - 20). Therefore the

I²C Bus parameter LEBORDM has to be set to LEBORDM=5 (amount of pixels =
4*LEBORDM = 4*5 = 20), if the pixels remaining in the memory should be overwritten
with border values. In addition the I²C Bus parameter RIBORDM has to be set to
RIBORDM=5 (amount of pixels = 4*RIBORDM = 4*5 = 20), if the pixels remaining in the
memory should be overwritten with border values. The new position of the left edge is
68 and begin of the block is 64, thus the difference between the begin of the bar and the
actual block is 68-64=4. That means that from the additional 20 pixels, which have to be
written left of the bar, at least 16 pixels belong to the block which begins at the position
32. That means, that the complete block (begin at position 32) is filled up with border
values. The same argumentation is valid for the right edge of the bar.

different I²C Bus parameters. The whole output picture is a combination of three
channels:

1: Background channel
2: Output channel master
3: Output channel slave
The background channel has always the lowest priority. The priority between output
channel master and slave is defined by an I²C Bus parameter PRIORMS. The figure
below shows an example for the combination of the three channels. The background
colour black has lowest priority. The picture content of master channel is a phone and
the picture content of slave channel is a airplane. In this case the slave channel has the
highest priority. To enable or disable the display of the master or slave channel the I²C

The next paragraphs describe the HOUT and VOUT generator in more detail. Both

5.7.1HOUT generator
The HOUT generator has two operation modes, which can be selected by the I²C Bus
parameter HOUTFR. The HOUT signal is active high (HOUTPOL=0) for 64 clock cycles
(X1/CLKD). In the freerunning-mode the HOUT signal is generated depending on the
PPLOP I²C Bus parameter. In the locked-mode the HOUT signal is locked on the
incoming H-Sync signal HIN. The polarity of the HOUT signal is programmable by the
I²C Bus parameter HOUTPOL. The BLANK signal can be used to mark the active part of
a line. To avoid transition artifacts of digital filters the number of active pixels can be
symmetrically reduced using the CAPPM and CAPPS I²C Bus parameter.

5.7.2VOUT generator
The VOUT generator has two operation modes, which can be selected by the I²C Bus
parameter VOUTFR. The VOUT signal is active high (VOUTPOL=0) for two output lines.
In the freerunning-mode the VOUT signal is generated depending on the LPFOP I²C Bus
parameter.
In the locked-mode the VOUT signal is synchronized by the incoming V-Sync signal VIN
(means the internal VIN delayed by the I²C Bus parameter OPDELM, compare "Inputsync controller (ISCM/ISCS)" on page 26). The RMODE I²C Bus parameter (line-
scanning pattern mode 1: progressive, 0: interlaced) determines the scan rate
conversion mode. If RMODE=1, then for each incoming V-sync signal VIN an outgoing
V-sync signal VOUT has to be generated (e.g. 50 Hz interlaced to 50 Hz progressive
scan rate conversion). If RMODE=0, then during one incoming V-Sync signal, two VOUT
pulses have to be generated (e.g. 50 Hz interlaced to 100 Hz interlaced scan rate
conversion).

The polarity of the VOUT signal is programmable by the I²C Bus parameter VOUTPOL.
The VOUT signal has a delay of two CLKOUT clocks to the HOUT signal or in case of
interlaced a delay of a half line plus two CLKOUT clocks.
The INTERLACED signal can be used for AC-coupled deflections. Depending on the I²C
Bus parameter INTMODE the value of this signal will be generated. The Table 69 shows

5.7.3Switching from H-and-V-freerunning to H-and-V-locked mode
In H-and-V-freerunning mode, generally, the phase of the generated synchronization
line-scanning pattern has no correlation to the input line-scanning pattern. A hard switch
from the H-and-V-freerunning mode to the H-and-V-locked mode therefore would cause
visible synchronization artefacts. To avoid these problems the SDA 9415 enlarges the
line and the field lengths of the output sync signals HOUT and VOUT in a defined
procedure to enable an invisible synchronization of the freerunning output to the input.
For vertical synchronization the maximum synchronization time is 260 ms for interlaced
and 520 ms for progressive display modes. Horizontal synchronization is performed in a
maximum time of 50 ms. To get the best performance it is recommended to change at
first the vertical and after the mentioned delay times the horizontal mode from free
running to locked.
5.7.4Operation mode generator
The VOUT generator determines the VOUT signal. For proper operation of the VOUT
generator information about the line-scanning pattern sequence is necessary. The I²C
Bus parameters STOPMOM (STatic OPeration MOde Master), STOPMOS (STatic
OPeration MOde Slave) and the I²C Bus parameter ADOPMOM (ADaptive OPeration
MOde Master) define the line-scanning pattern sequence and the scan rate conversion
algorithms.

Table 73Special combinations of STOPMOM and ADOPMOM
The table Table 74 "Display line-scanning pattern sequence" on page 93 shows all
possible display line-scanning pattern sequences for the different static operation modes
and the lines per field value between two consecutive output V-Syncs. It is assumed, that
in case of freerunning-mode LPFOP=156 and in locked-mode the number of lines of the
incoming field is 312.5.

The table below defines the static operation modes for the slave channel. The slave
channel is synchronized to the master channel. Therefore only modes with the same
output line-scanning pattern as the chosen master channel mode are allowed. Several
modes depend on the I²C Bus parameter MEMOP.

SDA 9415 - B13 Preliminary Data Sheet
The adaptive operation modes (ADOPMOM) define a dynamic switch between different
static operation modes controlled by several internal signals. The start point of all modes
is the actual chosen STOPMOM as described before. The tables below shows the
different adaptive operation modes. The internal used control signals are GMOTION,
MOVTYP, MOVMO and MOVPH (compare "Global motion, film mode and phasedetection" on page 108). Furthermore the internal control signal VTSEQ exists. In case
of I²C Bus parameter VCRMODEM=1, VTSEQ is still zero. If VCRMODEM=0, VTSEQ
can be equal one (compare "Input sync controller (ISCM/ISCS)" on page 26). In this
cases the scan rate conversion is forced to a simple field based scan rate conversion
algorithm. All internal control signals GMOTION, MOVTYP, MOVMO and MOVPH are
also readable by the I²C Bus interface.
Example for explanation of the adaptive operation modes:
ADOPMOM = 4: Film mode I, RMODE=0
In this case the scan rate conversion algorithm is controlled by the signal MOVMO,
MOVTYP and MOVPH. If MOVMO is equal 0 the scan rate conversion mode is defined
by STOPMOM and STOPMOS (e.g. Micronas VDU). If MOVMO is equal 1 and MOVTYP
is equal 0 the scan rate conversion algorithm is changed depending on the MOVPH
signal to Micronas VDU, Film mode, PAL, phase 0 or 1. If MOVMO is equal 1 and
MOVTYP is equal 1 the scan rate conversion algorithm is changed depending on the
MOVPH signal to Micronas VDU, Film mode, NTSC, phase 0 or 1. In case of film mode
PAL, the MOVPH signal is constant for the applied material. In case of Film mode NTSC,
the MOVPH signal changes each 2
th
or 3th field, respectively.

5.8Motion estimation
The 3-D Recursive Search Block-Matching algorithm was introduced as a high
performance low-cost motion estimation algorithm suitable for demanding scan rate
conversion applications. The figure below explains the principle of the block matching
algorithm. The result is a best matching vector, which contains information about velocity
and direction of a block at position (x,y).
