• Independent Control over Horizontal and
Vertical Sync Input Polarities
APPLICATIONS
• Television Deflection and RGB Video
Processing with TI's CRT Drivers
DESCRIPTION
The LM1229 pre-amp is an integrated CMOS CRT
RGB preamp plus horizontal and vertical deflection
processing with an I2C compatible interface for
controlling all the parameters necessary to directly
adjust the gain, contrast and brightness and geometry
of the CRT display.
In the RGB section, the CRT bias is controlled by the
three DAC outputs which are matched to the LM248x
integrated bias clamp ICs. The brightness control
operates on the video channels rather than the bias
channels and is designed to maintain the CRT color
temperature through the full range of adjustment. The
On Screen Display inputs accept either digital or
analog input levels. Black level clamping of the video
signal is carried out directly on the AC coupled input
signal into the high impedance preamplifier input,
thus eliminating the need for additional clamp
capacitors. Blanking inputs are provided which can
accept both horizontal and vertical flyback inputs for
composite blanking of the video. A vertical blanking
output pulse is provided which can drive a G1
blanking amplifier such as the one in TI's LM2485
clamp IC. The LM1229 RGB outputs are compatible
with TI's high gain drivers.
