Description
The i-Net TV FS450 is a fourth generation video
scan converter. It accepts many input
resolutions, rates and formats and converts them
to NTSC or PAL standards compliant with
SMPTE-170M and CCIR-656 standards. The chip
FS450, FS451
i-Net TV Interface
Video Processor
has a programmable down scaler to fit the
incoming resolution to the output display format.
The CCIR 656 ports allow external interface to
other video chips. The sync control block
generates frame reset for genlocking other video
components. Required external components are
minimal: a single 27 MHz oscillator or crystal
and passive parts.
Digital progressive RGB inputs are downscaled or
upscaled to the CCIR-656 horizontal pixel count
and converted to the 656 format. Vertical scaling
and flicker filtering are done in 656 format.
The Flicker Filter is an advanced 2 dimensional
filter that enhances text quality. Flicker Filter and
Sharpness parameters are programmable.
A digital video encoder that generates analog Y/C
and Composite Video outputs is part of the
FS450. For the composite output in NTSC, Y-
Notch and C-Bandpass filters are available. For
RGB and YUV outputs, the encoder may be
bypassed via a YUV to RGB transcoder for
SCART compatible video.
Scaling and clock parameters are automatically
programmed by the driver, so the system remains
genlocked with resolution changes. The input
parameters to the automatic scaling are TV
viewable area, PAL or NTSC, and the GCC CRT
Control Registers’ settings.
The FS451's encoder incorporates Macrovision 7
anti-copy protection technology.
All parameters can be read and written via the I²C
compatible serial port.
Power is derived from +3.3V digital and analog
supplies. The package is 100-lead Quad Flat
Pack (PQFP).
