C-bus Controlled PAL/NTSC/SECAM TV Processors OM8839PS/TDA8843/44
1. Features
The following features are available in all
ICs:
· Multi-standard vision IF circuit with PLL
demodulator without external components.
· Alignment-free multi-standard FM sound
demodulator (4.5 MHz to 6.5 MHz)
· Audio switch
· Flexible source selection with CVBS switch
and Y(CVBS)/C input so that a comb filter
can be applied
· Integrated chrominance trap circuit
· Integrated luminance delay line
· Asymmetrical peaking in the luminance
channel with a (defeatable) noise coring
function
· Black stretching of non-standard CVBS or
luminance signals
· Integrated chroma band-pass filter with
switchable centre frequency
· Dynamic skin tone control circuit
· Blue stretch circuit which offsets colors near
white towards blue
· RGB control circuit with “Continuous Cathode
Calibration” and white point adjustment
· Possibility to insert a “blue back” option when
no video signal is available
· Horizontal synchronization with two control
loops and alignment-free horizontal oscillator
· Vertical count-down circuit
· Vertical driver optimised for DC-coupled
vertical output stages

C-bus control of various functions
2. General Description
The various versions of the TDA884X/5X
series are I
2
C-bus controlled single chip TV
processors which are intended to be applied in
PAL, NTSC, PAL/NTSC and multi-standard
television receivers.
These ICs are nearly pin compatible with the
TDA 837× TV processors but have a higher
degree of integration because the delay line
(TDA4665 function) and the SECAM decoder
have been intagrated. In addition to these
functions some additional features have been
added like “Continuous Cathode
Calibration”(2-point black current loop which
results in an accurate biasing of the 3 guns),
adjustable luminance delay time, blue
stretching and dynamic skin tone (“flesh”)
control.
Functionally the IC series is split up in 3
categories, viz
·Versions intended to be used in economy TV
receivers with all basic functions (envelope:
S-DIP 56 and QFP64)
·Versions with additional features like E-W
geometry control, H-V zoom function and
YUV interface which are intended for TV
receivers with 110° picture tubes (envelope:
S-DIP 56)
·Versions which have in addition a second
RGB input with saturation control and a
second CVBS output (envelope: QFP 64)
