Digital Video Encoder (ConDENC) SAA7120; SAA7121

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION

The digital video encoder (ConDENC) encodes digital luminance and colour difference signals simultaneously into analog CVBS and S-Video signals. NTSC-M, PAL B/G, and sub-standards are supported.

Both interlaced and non-interlaced operation is possible for all standards.

The basic encoder function consists of subcarrier generation, colour modulation and the insertion of synchronization signals. Luminance and chrominance signals are filtered in accordance with the standard requirements of

“RS-170-A”

and

“CCIR 624”

For ease of analog post-filtering the signals are oversampled twice with respect to the pixel clock prior to digital-to-analog conversion.

The filter characteristics are shown in Figs 3 and 4. The DACs for Y, C, and CVBS have 10-bit resolution.

The 8-bit multiplexed Cb-Y-Cr formats are

“CCIR 656”

(D1 format) compatible, but the SAV and EAV codes can

be decoded optionally when the device is to operate in slave mode.

It is also possible to connect a Philips Digital Video Decoder (SAA7111 or SAA7151B) to the ConDENC. Via pin RTCI, connected to RTCO of a decoder, information concerning the actual subcarrier, PAL-ID and (if used in conjunction with the SAA7111) the subcarrier phase can be inserted.

The ConDENC synthesizes all necessary internal signals, colour subcarrier frequency and synchronization signals.

Wide screen signalling data can be loaded via the I

C-bus.

It is inserted into line 23 for 50 Hz field rate standards. The IC contains closed caption and extended data

services encoding (line 21), and supports anti-taping signal generation in accordance with Macrovision.

Possibilities are provided for setting video parameters:

Black and blanking level control Colour subcarrier frequency Variable burst amplitude.

Luminance is modified in gain and in offset (the latter programmable in a certain range to enable different black level set-ups). A fixed synchronization level in accordance

with standard composite synchronization schemes is inserted. The inserted blanking level is programmable to allow for manipulations with Macrovision anti-taping. Additional insertion of AGC super-white pulses, programmable in height, is supported.

a programmable delay at input pin. Phase variant interpolation is achieved on this bitstream in

the internal teletext encoder, providing sufficient small phase jitter on the output text lines.

TTXRQ provides a fully programmable request signal to the teletext source, indicating the insertion period of bitstream at lines selectable independently for both fields. The internal insertion window for text is set to 360 (PAL-WST), 296 (NTSC-WST) or 288 (NABTS) teletext bits including clock run-in bits. For protocol and timing see Fig.7.

Fig.6 Chrominance transfer characteristic 2.

In order to enable easy analog post-filtering, luminance is interpolated from 13.5 MHz data rate to 27 MHz data rate, providing luminance in 10-bit resolution. This filter is also used to define smoothed transients for synchronization pulses and blanking period. For transfer characteristic of the luminance interpolation filter see Figs 3 and 4.

Chrominance is modified in gain (programmable separately for U and V), standard dependent burst is inserted, before baseband colour signals are interpolated from 6.75 MHz data rate to 27 MHz data rate. One of the interpolation stages can be bypassed, thus providing a higher colour bandwidth, which can be made use of for Y and C output. For transfer characteristics of the chrominance interpolation filter see Figs 5 and 6.

The amplitude, beginning and ending of inserted burst is programmable in a certain range, suitable for standard signals and for special effects. Behind the succeeding quadrature modulator, colour in 10-bit resolution is provided on subcarrier.

The numeric ratio between Y and C outputs is in accordance with set standards.

Using this circuit, data in accordance with the specification of closed caption or extended data service, delivered by the control interface, can be encoded (Line 21). Two dedicated pairs of bytes (two bytes per field), each pair preceded by run-in clocks and framing code, are possible.

The actual line number where data is to be encoded in, can be modified in a certain range.

Data clock frequency is in accordance with definition for NTSC-M standard 32 times horizontal line frequency.

Data LOW at the output of the DACs corresponds to 0 IRE, data HIGH at the output of the DACs corresponds to approximately 50 IRE.

It is also possible to encode Closed Caption Data for 50 Hz field frequencies at 32 times horizontal line frequency.

Data manager

In the data manager, real time arbitration on the data stream to be encoded is performed.

A pre-defined colour look-up table located in this block can be read out in a pre-defined sequence (8 steps per active video line), achieving a colour bar test pattern generator without the need for an external data source. The colour bar function is under software control only.

ELETEXT INSERTION AND ENCODING

Output interface/DACs

In the output interface encoded Y and C signals are converted from digital to analog in 10-bit resolution.

Philips Semiconductors Preliminary speciﬁcation

Digital Video Encoder (ConDENC) SAA7120; SAA7121

Y and C signals are also combined to a 10-bit CVBS signal.

The CVBS output occurs with the same processing delay as the Y and C outputs. Absolute amplitude at the input of the DAC for CVBS is reduced by15⁄16 with respect to Y and C DACs to make maximum use of conversion ranges.

Outputs of the DACs can be set together in two groups via software control to minimum output voltage for either purpose.

Synchronization

Synchronization of the ConDENC is able to operate in two modes; slave mode and master mode.

In the slave mode, the circuit accepts synchronization pulses at the bidirectional RCV1 port. The timing and trigger behaviour related to RCV1 can be influenced by programming the polarity and the on-chip delay of RCV1. Active slope of RCV1 defines the vertical phase and optionally the odd/even and colour frame phase to be initialized, it can be also used to set the horizontal phase.

If the horizontal phase is not to be influenced by RCV1, a horizontal synchronization pulse needs to be supplied at the pin RCV2. Timing and trigger behaviour can also be influenced by RCV2.

If there are missing pulses at RCV1 and/or RCV2, the time base of ConDENC runs free, thus an arbitrary number of synchronization slopes may be absent, but no additional pulses (with the incorrect phase) must occur.

If the vertical and horizontal phase is derived from RCV1, RCV2 can be used for horizontal or composite blanking input or output.

Alternatively, the device can be triggered by auxiliary codes in a

“CCIR 656”

data stream at the MP port.

On the RCV2 port, the device can provide a horizontal synchronization pulse with programmable start and stop phase; this pulse can be inhibited in the vertical blanking period to build up, for example, a composite blanking signal.

The polarity of both RCV1 and RCV2 is selectable by software control.

The length of a field and the start and end of its active part can be programmed. The active part of a field always starts at the beginning of a line.

Teletext timing

The teletext timing is shown in Fig.7. tFD is the time needed to interpolate input data TTX and inserting it into the CVBS and Y output signal, such that it appears at t

= 10.2 µs (PAL) or t

TTX

= 10.5 µs (NTSC) after the

TTX

leading edge of the horizontal synchronization pulse. Time tPD is the pipeline delay time introduced by the

source that is gated by TTXRQ in order to deliver TTX data. This delay is programmable by register TTXHD. For every active HIGH-state at output pin TTXRQ, a new teletext bit must be provided by the source.

Since the beginning of the pulses representing the TTXRQ signal and the delay between the rising edge of TTXRQ and valid teletext input data are fully programmable (TTXHS and TTXHD), the TTX data is always inserted at the correct position after the leading edge of outgoing horizontal synchronization pulse.

Time t

is the internally used insertion window for

TTXWin

TTX data; it has a constant length that allows insertion of 360 teletext bits at a text data rate of 6.9375 Mbits/s (PAL), 296 teletext bits at a text data rate of 5.7272 Mbits/s (World Standard TTX) or 288 teletext bits at a text data rate of 5.7272 Mbits/s (NABTS). The insertion window is not opened if the control bit TTXEN is logic 0.

In the master mode, the time base of the circuit continuously runs free. On the RCV1 port, the device can output:

• A Vertical Synchronisation signal (VS) with 3 or 2.5 lines duration, or

• An ODD/EVEN signal which is LOW in odd fields, or

• A field sequence signal (FSEQ) which is HIGH in the first

of 4 or 8 fields respectively.

1997 Jan 06 9

Using appropriate programming, all suitable lines of the odd field (TTXOVS and TTXOVE) plus all suitable lines of the even field (TTXEVS and TTXEVE) can be used for teletext insertion.

Analog output voltages

The analog output voltages are dependent on the open-loop voltage of the operational amplifiers for full-scale conversion (typical value 1.35 V), the internal series resistor (typical value 2 Ω), the external series resistor and the external load impedance.

The digital output signals in front of the DACs under nominal conditions occupy different conversion ranges, as indicated in Table 1 for a

Values for the external series resistors result in a 75 Ω load.

Input levels and formats

The ConDENC expects digital Y, Cb, Cr data with levels (digital codes) in accordance with

“CCIR 601”

(see

Tables 2 and 3). For C and CVBS outputs, deviating amplitudes of the

colour difference signals can be compensated by independent gain control setting, while gain for luminance is set to predefined values, distinguishable for 7.5 IRE set-up or without set-up.
