GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The integrated 16 : 9 compressor is an IC which
compresses the active part of a video line by a factor of
4
3
from, for example, 52
μ
s to 39
μ
s. This is necessary to
display 4:3 video software on a 16 : 9 tube in the correct
proportion. The capacitively coupled video inputs are Y,
(B
Y) and (R
Y).
The synchronisation input HREF is a line frequency
reference signal. The bandwidth of the IC is up to 5 MHz
and the signal delay is realized with SC Line Memories
(Switched Capacitors Line Memories). The output of the
16 : 9 compressor also has the format Y, (B
Y) and (R
Y)
and provides the following two possibilities:
1.
Bypass function (the input signal is not compressed)
2.
Compressed video by a factor of
4
3
with three different
fixed screen positions (left, centre and right). The
luminance and chrominance of the side panels are
determined by the external signals YSIDE, BYSIDE
and RYSIDE.
The horizontal compression is a time discrete and
amplitude continuous signal processing. This provides pre
and post filters which are realized on-chip. The internal
clock generation is achieved with a 54 MHz horizontal PLL
which is synchronized to the positive edge of the HREF
signal. The function of the IC is controlled by the three
control signals CTRL1, CTRL2 and CTRL3.
