Philips Semiconductors Preliminary specification
Digital Signal Processor (DSP) for
cameras
SAA8110G
FEATURES
• High precision digital processing with 9 or 10 bit input
• Different types of CCDs (PAL, NTSC and CIF)
(progressive, interlaced and non-interlaced)
• Black offset preprocessing (including optical black offset
control)
• RGB-separation (with contour and white clip signals
generation)
• RGB-processing (colour space matrix, black control,
knee and gamma)
• RGB-to-YUV conversion (including down-sampling
filters)
• White balance control
• Y -processing (contour processing, false colour detector ,
filters and noise reduction)
• UV-processing (false colour correction and noise
reduction)
• Digital output formatter (including CIF-formatter, DTV2,
D1)
• Analog output preprocessing (including
PAL/NTSC-encoder and DACs)
• Measurement engine (prepared for auto-exposure and
auto-white balance features)
• Miscellaneous functions (e.g. switched mode power
supply pulse generator, control DAC)
• VH-reference and window timing
• Serial interface (selectable I2C-bus or 80C51 UART
interface)
• Mode control (including power management).
APPLICATIONS
• Desktop video applications
• Surveillance systems
• Video-phone systems.
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The SAA8110G is designed for desktop video applications
(teleconferencing, video grabbing), surveillance and
video-phone systems.
The SAA8110G may be applied together with an analog
front-end (TDA8786 including CDS/AGC/ADC), a timing
generator and a microcontroller as shown in
Figs 18 and 19. Other configurations are also possible.
The CCD-sensor can be of PAL, NTSC or CIF type (with
complementary mosaic colour filter). The maximum
number of active pixels is limited to 800 samples/line.
The 10-bits digital input may have a pixel frequency of up
to 14.318 MHz.
The SAA8110G output data is available in a digital and an
analog output format. Two digital output formats are
selectable: DTV2 (CCIR-601 at the input pixel frequency)
and D1 (CCIR-656 at twice the input pixel frequency). It is
also possible to generate the CIF and QCIF formats as
subsets from the processed CCD-image. The analog
output is available in one of four formats: RGB, YUV, YC
or CVBS. The SAA8110G includes a digital
PAL/NTSC-encoder and 3 DACs for this purpose.
Two types of serial interface are selectable: a fast 400 kHz
I
2
C-bus interfaceor a 80C51 UART interface (with bit rates
from 1 Mbit/s up to 3.75 Mbit/s depending on the system
clock used). The power dissipation of the SAA8110G can
be optimized for each application using the built-in power
management function.
