generator, fully synchronized horizontal and vertical time bases with drive circuits, a video switch and a transmitter identification/mute circuit. A functional colour TV receiver can thus be realised with the addition of a tuner, audio demodulator and amplifier, chrominance decoder and respective line and field deflection circuitry.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
Video IF amplifier, demodulator and video amplifier

Each of the three AC-coupled IF stages permits the omission of DC feedback and possesses a control range in excess of 20 dB.

The IF amplifier is followed by a passive synchronous demodulator providing a regenerated carrier signal. This is limited by a logarithmic limiter circuit prior to its application to the demodulator. Improved picture synchronization is provided by a wider bandwidth together with improved video amplifier linearity. The video amplifier contains also a white spot inverter and a noise clamp which limits interference pulses to a point below the peak sync level.

AFC-circuit

The reference signal for the AFC quadrature demodulator can also be acquired from the tuned circuit of the because an accurate 90° phase shift is realised internally. In this way only one tuned circuit needs to be applied and only one adjustment has to be carried out. The AFC output is affected by the asymmetrical frequency spectrum of the signal fed to the quadrature demodulator, which is determined by the SAW filter characteristic. To overcome this video frequency dependency of the AFC output, the demodulator output is followed by a sample-and-hold circuit For the reception of negative-going signals, the output is sampled only during peak sync (where a non-modulated carrier is present). When receiving signals with positive modulation the AFC is continuously active but extensively filtered Substantial noise will be present on the quadrature demodulator input signal during reception of very weak signals. This noise has an asymmetrical frequency spectrum ( with respect to the IF carrier) causing an offset in the AFC output voltage. This effect can be minimized by applying a notch in the demodulator tuned circuit. The sample-and-hold circuit is followed by an amplifier with high output impedance. The steepness of the of the AFC control voltage can be lowered by applying load resistors from the output to the supply and to ground. The AFC output is switched off when the AFC sample pin (22) is connected to around.

Notes to the quick reference data

Supplying a current of 9 mA to pin 12 starts the horizontal oscillator. This current can be obtained via a bleed circuit from the mains rectifier whilst the main supply for the device (V) is obtained from the horizontal output stage. The load current of the driver must be added to the value given.

3. The minimum value is obtained by connecting a 1.8 kΩ resistor between pins 15 and 28. The slicing level can be varied by changing the value of this resistor (higher resistor value results in larger value of the minimum sync pulse amplitude). The slicing level is independent of the video information.

AGC circuit

For signals employing negative modulation the AGC detector operates on peak sync level and on peak white level with those having positive modulation. Selection is

facilitated by the system switch (pin 32), see Table 1.

The charge current at positive modulation (see Table 2) is only present during the vertical sync or when the level at pin 1 drops 200 mV below the level of pin 17 as a

mV belo

result of input signal variations. To obtain rapid AGC action when executing a search tuning operation when the circuit is set for peak white AGC, the charge current is increased to 55 µA until the detection of a transmitted signal. With an AGC capacitor of 6.8 µF the video tilt will be < 2% for positive and for negative modulated signals.

VCR switch

The TDA8304 has an auto VCR-switch facility. Due to the inherent instability of signals from a VCR, the horizontal time constant should be shorter to prevent loss of horizontal synchronization in the early part of the scan. Provision is therefore incorporated (in the internal video mode) to automatically switch the short time constant such that a strong signal instigates the 'VCR' mode and a weak signal triggers the TV' mode. The phase detector is gated during the 'TV mode' and operates with a long time constant. The phase detector is not gated in the VCR mode and operates with a short time constant. The TDA8304 is active in the 'VCB' mode only at reception of an external video signal.

Video-switch

Selection between internal video (pin 16) and external video (pin 13) is made by applying a switching potential to pin 18 (see Table 3). Video output (pin 20) from the device is filtered to remove the audio carrier and DC-coupled to pin 16. The TDA8304 provides the opportunity for a direct video connection (e.g. via a perite connector) to be made to the device at pin 13. The AGC detector is not gated during the external video mode, the first phase detector is also not gated and operates with a short time constant. The gain of the

Preliminary specification

Page 5

IF amplifier (in the external video mode) is reduced to prevent crosstalk of the video amplifier to the horizontal oscillator during the no-signal condition.

Horizontal synchronization

The horizontal synchronization circuit of the TDA8304 provides the drive pulse for a horizontal deflection stage.

  • The phase of the control loop will be adapted automatically to the level of the input signal in order to achieve an optimum performance
  • The control gradient of the control loop will be low at reception of weak signals to reduce the noise bandwidth.
  • The phase detector control current is increased during strong or no-signal reception to obtain a short catching time and a good performance during VCR playback.
Vertical synchronization

The TDA8304 embodies a synchronized divider system for generating the vertical sawtooth at pin 3 having several advantages and features such as:

The vertical frequency is alignment free. The divider automatically adapts to a vertical frequency of 50 Hz or 60 Hz including automatic amplitude correction and its operating modes offer maximum interference/disturbance protection.

  • A discriminator-window checks the accuracy of the vertical trigger pulse. Internally clockpulses are generated by doubling the line frequency. The divider operates in the 60 Hz mode when the trigger pulse appears before count 576, otherwise the 50 Hz mode will be active.
  • The divider system operates with a number of different reset windows. The windows are activated via an up/down counter. The counter increases its counter-value by 1 for each time the separated vertical sync pulse appears within the selected window, otherwise the counter value is lowered by 1.
Modes of operation

Large search window (divider ratio between 488 and 722). This mode is valid for the following conditions:

  • Divider is looking for a new transmitter
  • Divider ratio found does not comply with the narrow window specification limits
  • Up/down counter value of the divider system, operating in the narrow window mode, drops below count 10

Narrow window mode: divider ratio between 522 - 528 (60 Hz) or 622 -628 (50 Hz)

  • The divider system switches over to narrow window mode when the up/down counter has reached his maximum value of 15 vertical sync pulses.
  • When the divider operates in the narrow window mode and a vertical sync pulse is missing in the window, the divider is reset at the end of that window and the counter value is lowered by 1.

.

  • At a counter value below 10 the divider system switches over to the large window mode.
  • The divider system generate also the so-called anti-top-flutter pulse which inhibits the phase 1 detector during the vertical sync pulse. The width of this pulse depends on the divider mode. For the large window mode the start is generated at the reset of the divider. In the narrow window mode the anti-top-flutter pulse starts at the beginning of the first equalizing pulse. The anti-top-flutter pulse ends at count 10 for 50 Hz and at count 12 for 60 Hz.
  • The divider is switched to count 625 when out of sync is detected by the coincidence detector. This results in a stable amplitude when no input signal is available.
  • The divider is switched to the large window mode when enlarged vertical sync pulses are detected.

The transmitter

identification/coincidence detector

Pin 25 of the TDA8304 serves as the transmitter identification and/or coincidence detector (see Table 4). Pin 25 is HIGH (= 9.8 V) when a transmitter is present and LOW (= 0.3 V) when of no transmitter signal is detected. When the video switch is in the internal mode, the signal at the sync separator input (pin 28) is the demodulated IF signal, pin 25 will act as a coincidence detector. Pin 25 is HIGH when the horizontal

oscillator loop is synchronized with the video signal and LOW in case of no synchronization. In the external video mode and in the text mode, pin 25 will be active as transmitter identification. The system relies upon the detection of sync pulses on the incoming IF signal. Pin 25 is charged with a current of 125 µA by the separated horizontal sync pulse and discharged continuously with a current of 4 µA. The high impedance of pin 25 should be taken into account in the application concept.

  • 15. The indicated figures are measured at an input signal of 10 mV RMS. The unloaded Q-factor of the reference tuned circuit is 70. With very weak input signals the drive signal for the AFC circuit will have a high noise content. This noise input has a asymmetrical frequency spectrum which will cause an offset of the AFC output voltage. To avoid problems due to this effect a notch filter can be built into the demodulator tuned circuit. The characteristics given for weak signals are measured without a notch circuit, with a SAW filter connected in front of the IC input signal such that the input signal of the IC is 150 μV (RMS value).
  • 16. Measured at an input signal amplitude of 150 µV(RMS) (pin 21).
  • 17. The minimum value is obtained by connecting a 1.8 kΩ resistor between pins 15 and 28. The slicing level can be varied by changing the value of this resistor (higher resistor value results in larger value of the minimum sync pulse amplitude). The slicing level is independent of the video information.
  • 18. Frequency control is obtained by supplying a correction current to the oscillator RC network via a resistor connected between the phase 1 detector output and the oscillator network. The oscillator can be adjusted to the correct frequency by short circuiting the sync separator bias network (pin 28) to +Vp. To avoid the need of a VCR switch the time constant of the phase detector at strong input signals is sufficiently short to get a stable picture during VCR playback. During the vertical retrace period the time constant is even shorter so that the head-errors of the VCR are compensated at the beginning of scan. During conditions of weak signal (information derived from the AGC circuit) the time constant is increased to obtain a better noise immunity.
  • 19. This figure is valid for an external load impedance of 82 kΩ from pin 31 to the phase adjustment potentiometer (of H-shift).
  • 20. The flyback input and sandcastle output have been combined on one pin. The flyback pulse is clamped to a level of 4.5 V. The minimum current to drive the second control loop is 0.1 mA.
  • 21. The functions in-sync/out-of-sync and transmitter identification have been combined on this pin. The capacitor is charged during the sync pulse and discharged during the time difference between gating (6.5 μs) and the sync pulse in the internal video mode. When the circuit is in the external mode the capacitor is charged by the horizontal sync pulse and discharged continuously with a small current.
  • 22. The vertical scan is synchronized by means of a divider system. Therefore no adjustment is required for the ramp generator. The divider detects whether the incoming signal has a vertical frequency of 50 or 60 Hz and corrects the vertical amplitude.
  • 23. To avoid screen burn due to a collapse of the vertical deflection a continuous blanking level (V30 = 2.5 V) is inserted in the sandcastle pulse when the feedback voltage of the vertical deflection is not within the specified limits.
  • 24. These figures are based on test samples.
