X-ray protection
TheX-rayprotectioninputXRAY(pin 2)providesavoltage
detector with a precise threshold. If the input voltage at
XRAY exceeds this threshold for a certain time, then
control bit SOFTST is reset, which switches the IC into
protection mode. In this mode several pins are forced into
defined states:
HUNLOCK (pin 17) is floating
The capacitor connected to HPLL2 (pin 30) is
discharged
Horizontal output stage (HDRV) is floating
B+ control driver stage (BDRV) is floating
CLBL provides a continuous blanking signal.
There are two different methods of restarting ways the IC:
1. XSEL (pin 9) is open-circuit or connected to ground.
The control bit SOFTST must be set to logic 1 via the
I2C-bus. Then the IC returns to normal operation via
soft start.
2. XSEL (pin 9) is connected to VCC via an external
resistor.Thesupplyvoltage of the IC must be switched
off for a certain period of time, before the IC can be
restarted again using the standard power-on
procedure.
Vertical oscillator and amplitude control
This stage is designed for fast stabilization of vertical size
after changes in sync frequency conditions.
The free-running frequency f
fr(V)
is determined by the
resistor R
VREF
connected to pin 23 and the capacitor
C
VCAP
connected to pin 24. The value of R
VREF
is not only
optimized for noise and linearity performance in the whole
vertical and EW section, but also influences several
internal references. Therefore the value of R
VREF
must not
be changed. Capacitor C
VCAP
should be used toselect the
free-running frequency of the vertical oscillator in
accordance with the following formula:
To achieve a stabilized amplitude the free-running
frequencyf
fr(V)
,withoutadjustment,shouldbe at least 10%
lower than the minimum trigger frequency.
The contributions shown in Table 2 can be assumed.

Result for 50 to 160 Hz application:
The AGC of the vertical oscillator can be disabled by
setting control bit AGCDIS via the I
2
C-bus. A precise
external current has to be injected into VCAP (pin 24) to
obtain the correct vertical size. This special application
mode can be used when the vertical sync pulses are
serrated (shifted); this condition is found in some display
modes, e.g. when using a 100 Hz up converter for video
signals.
Application hint: VAGC (pin 22) has a high input
impedance during scan. Therefore, the pin must not be
loaded externally otherwise non-linearities in the vertical
output currents may occur due to the changing charge
current during scan.
Adjustment of vertical size, VGA overscan and EHT
compensation
There are four differentways to adjust the amplitude of the
differential output currents at VOUT1 and VOUT2.
1. Register VGAIN changes the vertical size without
affecting any other output signal of the IC. This
adjustment is meant for factory alignments.
2. Register VSIZE changes not only the vertical size, but
also provides the correct tracking of all other related
waveforms (see Section “Tracking of vertical
adjustments”). This register should be used for user
adjustments.
3. For the VGA350 mode register VOVSCN can activate
a +17% step in vertical size.
4. VSMOD(pin 21) can be used for a DC controlled EHT
compensation of vertical size by correcting the
differential output currents at VOUT1 and VOUT2.
The EW waveforms, verticalfocus, pin unbalance and
parallelogram corrections are not affected by VSMOD.
