GENERAL DESCRIPTION

Having the capability to demodulate IF signals with either positive or negative-going video information, the TDA4504B (Fig.1) is contained within a 32 pin encapsulation. It includes a three-stage vision IF amplifier, mute circuit, AFC and AGC circuitry, fully synchronised horizontal and vertical timebases with drive circuits and integral three-level sandcastle pulse generator. A functional colour tv receiver can thus be realized with the addition of a tuner, audio demodulator and amplifier, chroma decoder and respective line and field deflection circuitry.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION Vision IF amplifier, demodulator
and video amplifier
Each of the three AC-coupled IF stages permit the omission of DC feedback and possess a control range in excess of 20 dB.
The IF amplifier, which is completely symmetrical, 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.
A noise clamp circuit is provided at the video input (pin 16) to limit interference pulses below the sync tip level and is more efficient than a noise inverter in providing improved picture stability during the presence of interference.
The video amplifier has good linearity and bandwidth figures.

AFC-circuit

Obtaining the AFC reference signal from the demodulator tuned circuit presents the advantage of utilizing a single tuned circuit and one adjustment. However, since the frequency spectrum of the signal applied to the demodulator is determined by the characteristic of the SAW filter, the resultant asymmetrical spectrum with respect to the vision carrier causes the AFC output voltage to be dependent upon the video signal. The TDA4504B thus contains a sample-and-hold circuit.
With negative-going vision signals the AFC is active only during the sync pulse period. When positive-going signals are applied to the device, however, the AFC is continuously active but filtered to ensure only a small by-pass current is present in the sample-and-hold circuit.
With weak input signals the drive signal will contain considerable noise which also possesses an asymmetrical frequency spectrum and could create an offset in the AFC output voltage. The inclusion of a notch in the demodulator tuned circuit minimises this effect.
The sample-and-hold circuit is followed by a high impedance output amplifier. Thus the AFC control gradient depends upon the load impedance.
The AFC polarity switch is combined with the start circuit (pin 12). It has a negative slope when pin 12 is open or connected to the main supply and a positive slope when pin 12 is grounded. The AFC is disabled when the sample connection (pin 22) is grounded.

AGC circuit

For signals employing negative modulation the AGC detector operates on peak sync level but upon peak white content with those having positive modulation. Selection is facilitated by the system switch (pin 32):
pin 32 HIGH/open: positive modulation pin 32 LOW: negative modulation
The AGC detector currents are:
positive modulation negative modulation charge 1 µA55µA discharge 3 mA 1.5 mA
With a 6.8 µF AGC capacitor, the video tilt will be < 10% for positively modulated signals and < 2% for negative modulation.
To obtain a rapid AGC action when executing a search tuning operation with the circuit set for peak white AGC, the charge current is held at 55 µA until the detection of a transmitted signal.
The transmitter identification
A mute signal is generated to disable the audio preamplifier of an audio demodulator during the absence of a transmission signal. When the video switch is in the internal mode, the identification of a transmitted signal is derived from the coincidence detector. In the external mode the IF part of the circuit has its own identification system. The system relies upon the detection of sync. pulses on the incoming IF signal. The separated horizontal sync pulse charges the capacitor on pin 25 which drives the mute output (pin 14).

VCR switch

Flywheel horizontal synchronization is desirable when receiving weak signals marred by noise but is usually unnecessary when receiving stronger off-air signals unless certain types of interference or multipath reception are apparent. Due to the inherent instability of VCR signals, however, the horizontal time constant should be shorter to prevent loss of horizontal synchronization in the early part of the scan. Provision is therefore incorporated 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 connection of a switch to pin 17 provides for this to be accomplished manually and may take the form of an auxiliary switching function associated with a designated program selector button.
The TDA4504B has a separate pin (pin 17) for the VCR switch:
pin 17 HIGH: VCR mode fast time constant; ungated pin 17 n.c.: auto VCR mode pin 17 LOW: TV mode slow time constant; gated

Video-switch

50 Hz 60 Hz None Don’t care Don’t care Don’t care
Video output from the demodulator is filtered to remove the audio carrier and DC-coupled to pin 16. If AC-coupling is employed the internal noise clamp will operate on sync. tips.
The TDA4504B provides the opportunity for a direct video connection (e.g. via a peritel connector) to be made to the device at pin 13. Selection between internal and external video is made by applying a switching potential to pin 18.
Video switch:
pin 18 LOW: internal video pin 18 HIGH: external video

Gain reduction

To prevent crosstalk between the IF stages and the horizontal oscillator when the device is operated in its external video mode with no RF input, the TDA4504B incorporates an option to reduce IF gain by 20 dB. This is accomplished by connecting a 39 k resistor between pin 17 and ground. Omission of this component results in the IF amplifier remaining at full gain.
In the internal video mode the resistor must be disconnected to achieve the auto-VCR mode.
