9.3.19 Special equalizer functions for group delay and video (CVBS)
To realize special customer demands or accurate compensation of the tuner influence,
the TDA8296 has got freely programmable equalizers for the group delay and video
(CVBS) response.
In Table 58 the programming of the group delay equalizer is explained, in Table 60 the
programming of the video equalizer. For each equalizer type an example is given.

Remark: The group delay equalizer consists of four cascaded all-pass Infinite Impulse
Response (IIR) sections of second order (8th order in sum). The transfer function H(z) of
one section is as follows, while the sampling rate is 13.5 MHz:
H(z) = -----b---2----+-----b---1----×-----z--–---1----+----z---–--2------
1 + b1 × z–1 + b2 × z–2
GD_EQ_SECTx_C1 and GD_EQ_SECTx_C2 (x = 1 to 4) are defining the linear and
square coefficient of each section, i.e. GD_EQ_SECTx_C1 = b1 and
GD_EQ_SECTx_C2 = b2. The coefficients are in signed fixed-point format, the
representation is in two’s complement. There is one sign bit, one magnitude bit and
6 fractional bits. Each fractional bit represents an inverse power of two, so that the highest
value for a coefficient is 20 + 2−1 + ... + 2−6 = 21 − 2−6 = 1.984375. The binary
representation for this value is 01.11 1111 (= 7Fh) and all bits except the sign bit are
logic 1. As two’s complement is chosen, the lowest value for a coefficient is −2, which is
10.00 0000 (= 80h) in the binary representation. So, for the lowest possible value, only the
sign bit is logic 1. The shown default values for GD_EQ_SECTx_C1 and
GD_EQ_SECTx_C2 (x = 1 to 4) implement a flat equalizer response.
Example of Table 58: If e.g. a flat group delay response up to 4 MHz and −70 ns from
4.43 MHz to 5 MHz on the CVBS signal is wanted, one might realize a characteristic like
shown in Figure 17.
