Input video signal categorization
The AK8857 can decode the following video signals, in accordance with the register setting.
NTSC-M,J
NTSC-4.43
PAL-B,D,G,H,I,N
PAL-Nc
PAL-M
PAL-60
SECAM
The register settings for the input signal characterization are essentially as follows.
○VSCF[1:0]-bi: Setting for subcarrier frequency of input signal
VSCF[1:0]-bit
Subcarrier frequency (MHz)

○BW-bit: Setting for decoding of input signal as monochrome signal (monochrome mode)
BW-bit
Signal type
Notes
[0]
Not monochrome (monochrome mode OFF)
[1]
Decode as monochrome signal (monochrome mode ON)
In the monochrome mode at CVBS decoding, the input signal is treated as a monochrome signal, and all
sampling data digitized the the AD converter passes through the luminance process and is processed as
a luminance signal. Thus, with this bit ON, the signal input to the Y/C separation block is all output as
luminance signal data to the luminance signal processing block.
In the monochrome mode at S-video decoding, Y signal is only decoded.
In the monochrome mode, the CbCr code is output as 0x80 (601 level data) regardless of the input.
