The IDC-3000 converts NTSC video signals into scan-doubled signals.
This scan converter can be used with a multi-synchronous scan monitor or
projectors having a minimum of 31.5 kHz horizontal scanning capability to
provide high-quality images.
The IDC-3000 can be also connected to a document camera, conventional
VCR, video disc player, S-Video recorder, or video camera.
FEATURES
v Motion adaptive 3-dimensional Y/C separation circuit greatly reduces
cross talk (dot interference/cross color).
v Motion adaptive 3-dimensional scanning line interpolation circuit pro-
vides a reduction of line flicker and an increase of vertical resolution.
v Two-mode digital video noise reduction circuit greatly improves the
signal-to-noise ratio of the signal.
v Forced (non adaptive) still screen mode provides a still image without
erroneous operation of the operation detection circuit. (This is useful
with the images of document cameras, etc.)
v Equipped with a demonstration split function for processing artificial
interlace and switching off 3-dimensional Y/C separation processing
the right half of the screen.
v PC-CONTROL connector permits control of a personal computer.

Command
The IDC-3000 returns an ACK if it has received the command correctly.
If it has not received the command correctly due to data error, it will return a
nothing. Therefore, when the external equipment send a command, make sure
that it received the ACK.
The IDC-3000 returns a NAK only when a WRITE error has occurred during
EEPROM access commands.
