The ML6461 accepts 8-bit YCrCb video in either CCIR656 or Square Pixel format and generates analog Y, C and CV waveforms complete with Closed Caption encoding. The ML6461 includes output analog reconstruction filters, phase equalizer, and 6dB (2X gain) drivers. Gain scaling, sync, and Y+C mixing are performed at the output of the relevant 10-bit DAC, eliminating the gain mapping stages that require additional DAC bits. The result is Y SNR and granularity remain precisely the same as the source. The ML6461 supports both master and slave timing operations. S-Video and multiple composite signals can be driven simultaneously into 75 loads.
