ADVANCE INFORMATION
2. Functional Description
2.1. Display Part
The display part converts the digital YC_rC_b to analog
RGB (see Fig. 2–7) and provides contrast and satura-
tion adjustment. In case of YC_rC_b 4:1:1 an interpola-
tion filter is used, which converts the digital input signal
to YC_rC_b 4:2:2 standard. The 4:2:2 YC_rC_b signal is
processed by the horizontal scaler. In the luminance
processing path, a variety of features, such as
dynamic peaking and soft limiting, are provided. In the
chrominance path, the C_rC_b signals are converted to
4:4:4 format and filtered by a color transient improve-
ment circuit. The YC_rC_b signal is converted by a pro-
grammable matrix to RGB color space.
2.1.1. Input Interface
The data inputs Y0…Y7 and C0…C7 are clocked with
the external clock LLC2. The clock frequency is select-
able for 27 or 32 MHz. A clock generator converts the
different external line-locked clock rates to a common
internal sample rate of appr. 40.5 MHz in order to pro-
vide a fix bandwidth for all digital filters. The horizontal
scaler is used for conversion of scan rate and non-lin-
ear aspect ratio. The horizontal sync puls at the HS pin
should be an active video signal, which is not vertically
blanked.
The input interface signals are
– external clock (LLC2)
– luma / chroma inputs (Y0…Y7 / C0…C7)
– horizontal sync (HS) / vertical sync (VS, VS2)
2.1.2. Horizontal Scaler
The scaler block allows linear or non-linear horizontal
scaling of the digital input video signal in the range of
0.25 to 4. Non-linear scaling, also called “panorama
vision”, provides a geometrical distortion of the input
picture. It is used to fit a picture with 4:3 format on a
16:9 screen by stretching the picture geometry at the
borders. The inverse effect can be produced by the
scaler, also. The scaler consists of a programmable
decimation and interpolation filter and a 1/2H FIFO
memory.
A summary of scaler modes is given in Table 2–1.

2.1.3. Luma Processing
The blacklevel of the input signal is assumed to be 16
(ITU-R standard). The luminance signal is multiplied
by a factor between 0 and 2 subdivided into 64 steps.
With a contrast adjustment of 32 (gain=1) the signal
can be shifted by ±100 % of its maximal amplitude with
the digital brightness value. This is for adjustment of
the headrooms for under- and overshoot. After the
brightness addition, the negative going signals are lim-
ited to zero. It is desirable to keep a small positive off-
set with the signal to prevent undershoots produced by
the peaking from being cut.
