The ADV7180 automatically detects and converts standard analog baseband television signals compatible with worldwide NTSC, PAL, and SECAM standards into 4:2:2 component video data compatible with the 8-bit ITU-R BT.656 interface standard. The simple digital output interface connects gluelessly to a wide range of MPEG encoders, codecs, mobile video processors, and ADI digital video encoders, such as the ADV7179. External HS, VS, and FIELD signals provide timing references for LCD controllers and other video ASICs, if required The accurate 10-bit analog-to-digital conversion provides professional quality video performance for consumer applications with true 8-bit data resolution. Three analog video input channels accept standard composite, S-video, or component video signals, supporting a wide range of consumer video sources. AGC and clamp-restore circuitry allow an input video signal peak-to-peak range up to 1.0 V. Alternatively, these can be bypassed for manual settings. |
