Preface

Linear Products

The Linear Division, one of four
Signetics product divisions, is a major
supplier of a broad line of linear integrated circuits ranging from high performance application specific designs to
many of the more popular industry standard devices.
A fifth Signetics division, the Military
Division, provides military-grade integrated circuits, including Linear. Please consult the Signetics Military data book for
information on such devices.
Employing Signetics' high quality processing and screening standards, the
Linear Division is dedicated to providing
high-quality linear products to our customers worldwide.
The three 1987 Linear Data and Applications Manuals provide extensive technical data and application information for a

"Given the increasingly intense competitive

SIGNETICS' ZERO DEFECTS
PROGRAM
In recent years, American industry has demanded increased product quality of its IC
suppliers in order to meet growing international competitive pressures. As a result of this
quality focus, it is becoming clear that what
was once thought to be unattainable - zero
defects - is, in fact, achievable.

"catching" defects, but on preventing them
from ever occurring. This strong preventive
focus, which demands that quality be "built-in"
rather than "inspected in," includes a much
greater attention to ongoing communication on
quality-related issues. At Signetics, a focus on
this cooperative approach has resulted in better service to all customers and the development of two innovative customerIvendor programs: Ship-te-Stock and Self-Qual.

The IC supplier committed to a standard of
zero defects provides a competitive advantage to today's electronics OEM. That advantage can be summed up in four words:
reduced cost of ownership. As IC customers
look beyond purchase price to the total cost
of doing business with a vendor, it is apparent
that the quality-conscious supplier represents
a viable cost reduction resource. Consistently
high quality circuits reduce requirements for
expensive test equipment and personnel, and
allow for smaller inventories, less rework, and
fewer field failures.

As a result of their partiCipation in the Ship-toStock Program, many of our customers have
eliminated costly incoming testing on selected ICs. We will work together with any customer interested to establish a Ship-to-Stock
Program, and identify the products to be
Included in the program and finalize all necessary terms and conditions. From that point,
the specified products can go directly from
the receiving dock to the assembly line or into
inventory. Signetics then provides, free of
charge, monthly reports on those products.

REDUCING THE COST OF
OWNERSHIP THROUGH TOTAL
QUALITY PERFORMANCE

In our efforts to continually reduce cost of
ownership, we are now using the experience
we have gained with Ship-to-Stock to begin
developing a Just-in-Time Program. With Justin-Time, products will be delivered to the
receiving dock just as they are needed, permitting continuous-flow manufacturing and eliminating the need for expensive inventories.

Quality involves more than just IC's that work.
It also includes cost-saving advantages that
come with error-free service - on-time delivery of the right quantity of the right product at
the agreed-upon price. Beyond the product,
you want to know you can place an order and
feel confident that no administrative problems
will arise to tie up your time and personnel.
Today, as a result of Signetics' growing
appreciation of the concern with cost of
ownership, our quality improvement efforts
extend out from the traditional areas of product conformance into every administrative
function, including order entry, scheduling,
delivery, shipping, and invoicing. Driving this
process is a Corporate Quality Improvement
Team, comprised of the president and his
staff, which oversees the activities of 30 other
Quality Improvement Teams throughout the
company.

CUSTOMER/VENDOR
COOPERATION IS AT THE
HEART OF ZERO DEFECTS
AND REDUCED COSTS
Working to a zero defects standard requires
that emphasis be consistently placed, not on
February 1987

Uke Ship-to-Stock, our Self-Qual Program
employs a cooperative approach based on
ongoing information exchange. At Signetics,
formal qualification procedures are required
for all new or changed materials, processes,
products, and facilities. Prior to 1983, we
created our qualification programs independently. Our major customers would then test
samples to confirm our findings. Now, under
the new Self-Qual Program, customers can
be directly involved in the prequalification
stage. When we feel we have a promising
enhancement to offer, customers will be invited to participate in the development of the
qualification plan. This eliminates the need to
duplicate expensive qualification testing and
also adds another dimension to our ongoing
efforts to build in quality.

PRODUCT RELIABILITY:
QUALITY OVER TIME IS THE
GOAL
Our concern with product reliability has developed from communication with many customers. In discussions, these customers have

2-3

emphasized the high cost of field failures,
both in terms of dollars and reputations in the
marketplace.
In response to these concerns, we have
placed an emphasis on improving product
reliability. As a result of this effort, our product
reliability has improved more than fourfold in
a five-year period (see Figure 1). A key
program, SURE (Systematic and Uniform Reliability Evaluation), highlights the significant
progress made in this critical area.
SURE was first instituted in 1964 as the core
reliability measurement for all Signetics products. In 1980, as a first major step toward
improving product reliability, SURE was enhanced by increasing sampling frequency and
size and by extending stress tests. As a result
of these improvements, most of our major
customers now utilize SURE data with no
requests for additional reliability testing.

WE WANT TO WORK WITH
YOU
At Signetics, we know that our success depends on our ability to support all our customers with the defect-free, higher density, higher
performance products needed to compete
effectively in today's demanding business
environment. To achieve this goal, quality in
another arena - that of communicationsis vital. Here are some specific ways we can
maintain an ongoing dialogue and information
exchange between your company and ours
on the quality issue:
• Periodical face-to-face exchanges of
data and quality improvement ideas
between the customer and Signetics
can help prevent problems bafore they
occur.
• Test correlation data is very useful. Une
pull information and field failure reports
also help us improve product
performance.
• When a problem occurs, provide us as
soon as possible with whatever specific
data you have. This will assist us in
taking prompt corrective action.
Quality products are, in large measure, the
result of quality communication. By working
together, by opening up channels through
which we can talk openly to each other, we
will insure the creation of the innovative,
reliable, cost effective products that help
insure a competitive edge.

LINEAR PRODUCT QUALITY

• Customer liaison

Signetics has put together a winning process
for the manufacturing of Linear Integrated
Circuits. The circuits produced by our Linear
Division must meet rigid criteria as defined in
our design rules and as evaluated through
product characterization over the device operating temperature range. Product conformance to specification is measured throughout the manufacturing cycle. Our standard is
Zero Defects and our customers' statistics
and awards for outstanding product quality
demonstrste our advance toward this goal.

The result of this continual involvement at all
stages of production enables us to provide
feedback to refine present and future designs, manufacturing processes, and test
methodology to enhance both the quality and
reliability of the products delivered to our
customers.

Nowhere is this more evident than at our
Electrical Outgoing Product Assurance inspection gate. Over the past six years, the
measured defect level at the first submission
to Product Assurance for Linear products has
dropped from over 4000PPM (0.4%) to under
150PPM (0.015%) (see Figure 2). Signetics

Signetics' Linear Division Quality and Reliability Assurance Department is involved in all
stages of the production of our Linear ICs:
• Product Design and Process
Development
• Wafer Fabrication
• Assembly
• Inspection and Test
• Product Reliability Monitoring

February 1987

calls the first submittal to a Product or Quality
Assurance gate our Estimated Process Quality or EPQ. It is an internal measure used to
drive our Quality Improvement Programs toward our goal of Zero Defects. All product
acceptance sampling plans have zero as their
acceptance criteria. Only shipments that
demonstrste zero defects during these acceptance tests may be shipped to our customers. This is in accordance with our commHment to our Zero Defect policy.
The results from our Quality Improvement
Program have allowed Signetics to take the
industry leadership position with its Zero Detects Limited Warranty policy. No longer is it
necessary to negotiate a mutually acceptable
AQL between buyer and Signetics. Signetics
will replace any lot in which a customer finds
one verified defective part.

QUALITY DATABASE
REPORTING SYSTEM - QA05
The capabilities of our manufacturing process
are measured and the results are recorded
through our corporate-wide QA05 database
system. The QA05 system collects the results
on all finished lots and feeds this data back to
concerned organizations where appropriate
corrective actions can be taken. The QA05
reports Estimated Process Quality (EPQ) data
which are the sample inspection results for
first submittal lots to Quality Assurance in·
spection for electrical, visual/mechanical,
hermeticity, and documentation. Data from
this system is available upon request and is
distributed routinely to our customers who
have formally adopted our Ship·to-Stock program.

SIGNETICS' SHIP-TO-STOCK
PROGRAM
Ship-to-Stock is a joint program between
Signetics and a customer which formally
certifies specific parts to go directly into
inventory or to the assembly line from the
February 1987

customer's receiving dock without incoming
inspection. This program was developed at
the request of several major customers after
they had worked with us and had a chance to
experience the data exchange and joint corrective action that occurs as part of our
quality improvement program.
The key elements of the Ship-to·Stock pro·
gram are:
• Signetics and customer agree on a list
of products to be certified, complete
device correlation, and sign a
specification.
• The product Estimated Product Quality
(EPQ) must be 300ppm or less for the
past 3 months.
• Signetics will share Quality (QA05) and
Reliability data on a regular basis.
• Signetics will alert Ship-to-Stock
customers of any changes in quality or
reliability which could adversely impact
their product.
Any customer interested in the benefits of the
Ship-to-Stock program should contact his

2-5

local Signetics sales office for a brochure and
further details.

RELIABILITY BEGINS WITH THE
DESIGN
Quality and reliability must begin with design.
No amount of ex1ra testing or inspection will
produce reliable ICs from a design that is
inherently unreliable. Signetics follows very
strict design and layout practices with its
circuits. To eliminate the possibility of metal
migration, current density in any path cannot
exceed 5 X 10 5 amps/cm 2. Layout rules are
followed to minimize the possibility of shorts,
circuit anomalies, and SCR type latch-up
effects. All circuit designs are computerchecked using the latest CAD software for
adherence to design rules. Simulations are
performed for functionality and parametric
performance over the full operating ranges of
voltage and temperature before going to
production. These steps allow us to meet
device specifications not only the first time,
but also every time thereafter.

PRODUCT CHARACTERIZATION
Before a new design is released, the characterization phase is completed to insure that
the distribution of parameters resulting from
lot-to-Iot variations is well within specified
limits. Such extensive characterization data
also provides a basis for identifying unique
application-related problems which are not
part of normal data sheet guarantees.

PRODUCT QUALIFICATION
Linear products are subjected to rigorous
qualification procedures for all new products
or redesigns to current products. Qualification
testing consists of:
• High Temperature Operating Life:
TJ = 150°C, 1000 hours, static bias
• High Temperature Storage Life:
TJ = 150°C, 1000 hours, unbiased
• Temperature Humidity Biased Life:
85°C, 85% relative humidity, 1000
hours, static bias
• Pressure Cooker:
15 psig, 121°C, 192 hours, unbiased
• Thermal Shock:
-65°C to + 150°C, 300 cycles, 5 minute
dwell, liquid to liquid, unbiased
Formal qualification procedures are required
for all new or changed products, processes,
and facilities. These procedures ensure the
high level of product reliability our customers
expect. New facilities are qualified by corporate groups as well as by the quality organizations of specific units that will operate in the
facility. After qualification, products manufactured by the new facility are subjected to
highly accelerated environmental stresses to
ensure that they can meet rigorous failure
rate requirements. New or changed processes are similarly qualified.

ONGOING RELIABILITY
ASSESSMENT PROGRAMS
The SURE Program
The SURE (Systematic and Uniform Reliability Evaluation) program audits products from
each of Signetics Linear Division's process
families: Low Voltage, Medium Voltage, High
Voltage, and Dual-Layer Metal, under a variety of accelerated stress conditions. This
program, first introduced in 1964, has evolved
to suit changing product complexities and
performance requirements.

The Audit Program
Samples are selected from each process
family every four weeks and are subjected to
each of the following stresses:
• High Temperature Operating Life:
TJ = 150°C, 1000 hours, static bias
• High Temperature Storage Life:
TJ = 150°C, 1000 hours, unbiased
• Temperature Humidity Biased Life:
85°C, 85% relative humidity, 1000
hours, static bias
• Pressure Cooker:
20 psig, 127°C, 72 hours, unbiased
• Thermal Shock:
_65°C to + 150°C, 300 cycles, 5 minute
dwell, liquid-to-liquid, unbiased
• Temperature Cycling:
-65°C to + 150°C, 1000 cycles, 10
minute dwell, air-to-air, unbiased

The Product Monitor Program
In addition, each Signetics assembly plant
performs Pressure Cooker and Thermal
Shock SURE Product Monitor stresses on a
weekly basis on each molded package by pin
count per the same conditions as the SURE
Program.

Product Reliability Reports
The data from these test matrices provides a
basic understanding of product capability, an
indication of major failure mechanisms, and
an estimated failure rate resulting from each
stress. This data is compiled periodically and
is available to customers upon request.

February 1987

Many customers use this information in lieu of
running their own qualification tests, thereby
eliminating time-consuming and costly additional testing.

Reliability Engineering
In addition to the product performance moni·
tors encompassed in the Linear SURE program, Signetics' Corporate and Division Reliability Engineering departments sustain a
broad range of evaluation and qualification
activities.
Included in the engineering process are:
• Evaluation and qualification of new or
changed materials, assembly/wafer-fab
processes and equipment, product
designs, facilities, and subcontractors.
• Device or generic group failure rate
studies.
• Advanced environmental stress
development.
• Failure mechanism characterization and
corrective action/prevention reporting.
The environmental stresses utilized in the
engineering programs are similar to those
utilized for the SURE monitor; however, more
highly-accelerated conditions and extended
durations typify these engineering projects.
Additional stress systems such as biased
pressure pot, power-temperature cycling, and
cycle-biased temperature-humidity, are also
included in some evaluation programs.

Failure Analysis
The SURE Program and the Reliability Engineering Program both include failure analysis
activities and are complemented by corporate, divisional, and plant failure analysis
departments. These engineering units provide a service to our customers who desire
detailed failure analysis support, who in turn
provide Signetics with the technical understanding of the failure modes and mechanisms actually experienced in service. This
information is essential in our ongoing effort
to accelerate and improve our understanding
of product failure mechanisms and their prevention.

THE 12 C CONCEPT
The Inter-IC bus (12C) is a 2-wire serial bus
designed to provide the facilities of a small
area network, not only between the circuits of
one system, but also between different systems; e.g., teletext and tuning.
Philips/Signetics manufactures many devices
with built-in 12C interface capability, any of
which can be connected in a system by
simply "clipping" it to the 12C bus. Hence, any
collection of these devices around the 12C
bus is known as "clips."
The 12C bus consists of two bidirectional
lines: the Serial Data (SDA) line and the Serial
Clock (SCl) line. The output stages of devices connected to the bus (these devices
could be NMOS, CMOS, 12 C, TTL, ... ) must
have an open-drain or open-collector in order
to perform the wired-AND function. Data on

February 1987

the 12 C bus can be transferred at a rate up to
100kbits/sec. The physical bus length is
limited to 13 feet and the number of devices
connected to the bus is solely dependent on
the limiting bus capacitance of 400pF.
The inherent synchronization process, built
into the 12 C bus structure using the wiredAND technique, not only allows fast devices
to communicate with slower ones, but also
eliminates the "Carrier Sense Multiple Access/Collision Detect" (CSMAlCD) effect
found in some local area networks, such as
Ethernet.
Master-slave relationships exist on the 12 C
bus; however, there is no central master.
Therefore, a device addressed as a slave
during one data transfer could possibly be the
master for the next data transfer. Devices are

also free to transmit or receive data during a
transfer.
To summarize, the 12C bus eliminates interfacing problems. Since any peripheral device
can be added or taken away without affecting
any other devices connected to the bus, the
12C bus enables the system designer to build
various configurations using the same basic
architecture.
Application areas for the 12 C bus include:
Video Equipment
Audio Equipment
Computer Terminals
Home Appliances
Telephony
Automotive
Instrumentation
Industrial Control

INTRODUCTION
For 8-bit applications, such as those requiring
single-chip microcomputers, certain design
criteria can be established:
• A complete system usually consists
of at least one microcomputer and
other peripheral devices, such as
memories and 1/0 expanders.
• The cost of connecting the various
devices within the system must be
kept to a minimum.
• Such a system usually performs a
control function and does not require
high-speed data transfer.
• Overall efficiency depends on the
devices chosen and the
Interconnecting bus structure.
In order to produce a system to satisfy these
criteria, a serial bus structure is needed.
Although serial buses don't have the throughput capability of parallel buses, they do require less wiring and fewer connecting pins.
However, a bus is not merely an interconnecting wire, it embodies all the formats and
procedures for communication within the system.
Devices communicating with each other on a
serial bus must have some form of protocol
which avoids all possibilities of confusion,
data loss and blockage of information. Fast
devices must be able to communicate with
slow devices. The system must not be dependent on the devices connected to it, otherwise modifications or improvements would be
impossible. A procedure has also to be resolved to decide which device will be in
control of the bus and when. And if different
devices with different clock speeds are connected to the bus, the bus clock source must
be defined.

a receiver, while a memory can both receive
and transmit data. In addition to transmitters
and receivers, devices can also be considered as masters or slaves when performing
data transfers (see Table 1). A master is the
device which initiates a data transfer on the
bus and generates the clock signals to permit
that transfer. At that time, any device addressed is considered a slave.
The 12C bus is a multi-master bus. This means
that more than one device capable of controlling the bus can be connected to it. As
masters are usually microcomputers, let's
consider the case of a data transfer between
two microcomputers connected to the 12 C
bus (Figure 1). This highlights the masterslave and receiver-transmitter relationships to
be found on the 12 C bus. It should be noted
that these relationships are not permanent,
but only depend on the direction of data
transfer at that time. The transfer of data
would follow in this way:
1) Suppose microcomputer A wants to send
information to microcomputer B
- microcomputer A (master) addresses
microcomputer B (slave)
- microcomputer A (master transmitter)
sends data to microcomputer B (slave
receiver)
- microcomputer A terminates the
transfer.
2) " microcomputer A wants to receive information from microcomputer B

- microcomputer A (master) addresses
microcomputer B (slave)
- microcomputer A (master receiver)
receives data from microcomputer B
(slave transmitter)
- microcomputer A terminates the
transfer.
Even in this case, the master (microcomputer
A) generates the timing and terminates the
transfer.
The possibility of more than one microcomputer being connected to the 12C bus means
that more than one master could try to initiate
a data transfer at the same time. To avoid the
chaos that might ensue from such an event,
an arbitration procedure has been developed.
This procedure relies on the wired-AND connection of all devices to the 12C bus.
" two or more masters try to put information
on to the bus, the first to produce a one when
the other produces a zero will lose the
arbitration. The clock signals during arbitration are a synchronized combination of the
clocks generated by the masters using the
wired-AND connection to the SCl line (for
more detailed information concerning arbitration see Arbitration and Clock Generation).
Generation of clock signals on the 12 C bus is
always the responsibility of master devices;
each master generates its own clock signals
when transferring data on the bus. Bus clock
signals from a master can only be altered
when they are stretched by a slow slave

All these criteria are involved in the specification of the 12C bus.

THE 12C BUS CONCEPT
Any manufacturing process (NMOS, CMOS,
12l) can be supported by the 12C bus. Two
wires (SDA - serial data, SCl - serial clock)
carry information between the devices connected to the bus. Each device is recognized
by a unique address - whether it is a microcomputer, LCD driver, memory or keyboard
interface - and can operate as either a transmitter or receiver, depending on the function
of the device. Obviously an LCD driver is only

GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS
Both SDA and SCl are bidirectional lines,

is free, both lines are High. The output stages
of devices connected to the bus must have
an open·drain or open·collector in order to
perform the wired-AND function. Data on the
12C bus can be transferred at a rate up to
100kbit/s. The number of devices connected
to the bus is solely dependent on the limiting
bus capacitance of 400pF.

Start and Stop Conditions
Within the procedure of the 12C bus, unique
situations arise which are defined as start and
stop conditions (see Figure 4).
A High-to-low transition of the SDA line while
SCL is High is one such unique case. This
situation indicates a start condition.

I

A low-to-High transition of the SDA line while
SCl is High defines a stop condition.

~~

Start and stop conditions are always generated by the master. The bus is considered to be
busy after the start condition. The bus is
considered to be free again a certain time
after the stop condition. This bus free situation will be described later in detail.

STOP CONDITION

Detection of start and stop conditions by
devices connected to the bus is easy if they
possess the necessary interfacing hardware.
However, microcomputers with no such interface have to sample the SDA line at least
twice per clock period in order to sense the
transition.

TRANSFERRING DATA
Byte Format
Every byte put on the SDA line must be 8 bits
long. The number of bytes that can be
transmitted per transfer is unrestricted. Each
byte must be followed by an acknowledge bit.

Data Validity
The data on the SDA line must be stable
during the High period of the clock. The High
or low state of the data line can only change
when the clock signal on the SCl line is low
(Figure 3).

Due to the variety of different technology
devices (CMOS, NMOS, 12 l) which can be
connected to the 12 C bus, the levels of the
logical 0 (low) and 1 (High) are not fixed and
depend on the appropriate level of VDD (see
Electrical Specifications). One clock pulse is
generated for each data bit transferred.

CLOCK PULSE FOR
ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

Figure 6. Acknowledge on the 12C Bus

Data is transferred with the most significant
bit (MSB) first (Figure 5). If a receiving device
cannot receive another complete byte of data
until it has performed some other function, for
example, to service an internal interrupt, it
can hold the clock line SCl low to force the
transmitter into a wait state. Data transfer
then continues when the receiver is ready for
another byte of data and releases the clock
line SCL.
In some cases, it is permitted to use a
different format from the 12 C bus format, such
as CBUS compatible devices. A message
which starts with such an address can be
terminated by the generation of a stop condi·
tion, even during the transmission of a byte.
In this case, no acknowledge is generated.

Acknowledge
Data transfer with acknowledge is obligatory.
The acknowledge-related clock pulse is generated by the master. The transmitting device
releases the SDA line (High) during the ac·
knowledge clock pulse.

February 1987

The receiving device has to pull down the
SDA line during the acknowledge clock pulse
so that the SDA line is stable low during the
high period of this clock pulse (Figure 6). Of
course, setup and hold times must also be
taken into account and these will be de·
scribed in the Timing section.
Usually, a receiver which has been addressed
is obliged to generate an acknowledge after
each byte has been received (except when
the message starts with a CBUS address.
When a slave receiver does not acknowledge
on the slave address, for example, because it
is unable to receive while it is performing
some real·time function, the data line must be
left High by the slave. The master can then
generate a STOP condition to abort the
transfer.

If a slave receiver does acknowledge the
slave address, but some time later in the
transfer cannot receive any more data bytes,
the master must again abort the transfer. This
is indicated by the slave not generating the
acknowledge on the first byte following. The

3-6

slave leaves the data line High and the
master generates the STOP condition.
In the case of a master receiver involved in a
transfer, it must signal an end of data to the
slave transmitter by not generating an ac·
knowledge on the last byte that was clocked
out of the slave. The slave transmitter must
release the data line to allow the master to
generate the STOP condition.

ARBITRATION AND CLOCK
GENERATION
Synchronization
All masters generate their own clock on the
SCl line to transfer messages on the 12 C bus.
Data is only valid during the clock High period
on the SCl line; therefore, a defined clock is
needed if the bit·by·bit arbitration procedure
is to take place.
Clock synchronization is performed using the
wired·AND connection of devices to the SCl
LINE. This means that a High·to·low transi·

Arbitration can carry on through many bits.
The first stage of arbitration is the comparison
of the address bits. If the masters are each
trying to address the same device. arbitration
continues into a comparison of the data.
Because address and data information is
used on the 12C bus for the arbitration. no
information is lost during this process.

A master which loses the arbitration can
generate clock pulses until the end of the
byte in which it loses the arbitration.

If a master does lose arbitration during the
addressing stage. it is possible that the winning master is trying to address it. Therefore.
the losing master must switch over immediately to its slave receiver mode.

tion on the Sel line will affect the devices
concerned. causing them to start counting off
their low period. Once a device clock has
gone low it will hold the SCl line in that state
until the clock High state is reached (Figure
7). However. the low-to-High change in this
device clock may not change the state of the
SCl line if another device
clock is still within its low period. Therefore.
SCl will be held low by the device with the
longest low period. Devices with shorter low
periods enter a High wait state during this
time.
When all devices concerned have counted off
their low period. the clock line will be released and go High. There will then be no
difference between the device clocks and the

connected to the bus. The moment there is a
difference between the internal data level of
the master generating DATA 1 and the actual
level on the SDA line. its data output is
switched off. which means that a High output
level is then connected to the bus. This will
not affect the data transfer initiated by the

state of the Sel line and all of them will start
counting their High periods. The first device
to complete its High period will again pull the
Sel line low.
In this way. a synchronized SCl clock is
generated for which the low period is determined by the device with the longest clock
low period while the High period on Sel is
determined by the device with the shortest
clock High period.

Arbitration
Arbitration takes place on the SDA line in
such a way that the master which transmits a
High level. while another master transmits a
low level. will switch off its DATA output
stage since the level on the bus does not
correspond to its own level.

3-7

In addition to being used during the arbitration
procedure. the clock synchronization mechanism can be used to enable receiving devices
to cope with fast data transfers. either on a
byte or bit level.
On the byte level. a device may be able to
receive bytes of data at a fast rate. but needs
more time to store a received byte or prepare
another byte to be transmitted. Slave devices
can then hold the SCl line low. after reception and acknowledge of a byte. to force the
master into a wait state until the slave is
ready for the next byte transfer in a type of
handshake procedure.
On the bit level. a device such as a microcomputer without a hardware 12C interface
on-Chip can slow down the bus clock by
extending each clock low period. In this way.
the speed of any master is adapted to the
internal operating rate of this device.

FORMATS
Data transfers foliow the format shown in
Figure 9. After the start condition, a slave
address is sent. This address is 7 bits long;
the eighth bit is a data direction bit (R/W). A
zero indicates a transmission (WRITE); a one
indicates a request for data (READ). A data
transfer is always terminated by a stop condition generated by the master. However, if a

master still wishes to communicate on the
bus, it can generate another start condition,
and address another slave without first generating a stop condition. Various combinations
of read/write formats are then possible within
such a transfer.
At the moment of the first acknowledge, the
master transmitter becomes a master receiv-

er and the slave receiver becomes a slave
transmitter. This acknowledge is stili generated by the slave.
The stop condition is generated by the master.
During a change of direction within a transfer,
the start condition and the slave address are
both repeated, but with the R/W bit reversed.

12C Bus Specification

ADDRESSING
The first byte aiter the start condition determines which slave will be selected by the
master. Usually, this first byte follows that
start procedure. The exception is the general
call address which can address all devices.
When this address is used, all devices
should, in theory, respond with an acknowledge, although devices can be made to
ignore this address. The second byte of the
general call address then defines the action
to be taken.

Definition of Bits in the First
Byte
The first seven bits of this byte make up the
slave address (Figure 10). The eighth bit
(LSB -least significant bit) determines the
direction of the message. A zero on the least
significant position of the first byte means that
the master will write information to a selected
slave; a one in this position means that the
master will read information from the slave.

There are two cases to consider:

2. When the least significant bit B is a one.

When an address is sent, each device in a
system compares the first 7 bits after the start
condition with its own address. If there is a
match, the device will consider itself addressed by the master as a slave receiver or
slave transmitter, depending on the R/W bit.

The slave address can be made up of a fixed
and a programmable part. Since it is expected
that identical ICs will be used more than once
in a system, the programmable part of the
slave address enables the maximum possible
number of such devices to be connected to
the 12C bus. The number of programmable
address bits of a device depends on the
number of pins available. For example, if a
device has 4 fixed and 3 programmable
address bits, a total of eight identical devices
can be connected to the same bus.

The general call address should be used to

which cannot be programmed to transmit a

Microcomputers can be connected to the 12C

can be programmed to be interrupted only by
requests from the bus. When the device
possesses no such interface, it must constantly monitor the bus via software. Obvious-

In some systems an alternative could be that
the hardware master transmitter is brought in
the slave receiver mode after the system
reset. In this way, a system configuring master can tell the hardware master transmitter
(which is now in slave receiver mode) to
which address data must be sent (Figure 14).
After this programming procedure, the hardware master remains in the master transmitter mode.

Iy, the more times the microcomputer monitors, or polls, the bus, the less time it can
spend carrying out its intended function.
Therefore, there is a difference in speed
between fast hardware devices and the relatively slow microcomputer which relies on
software polling.
In this case, data transfer can be preceded by
a start procedure which is much longer than
normal (Figure 15). The start procedure consists of:
a)
b)
c)
d)

A start condition, (S)
A start byte 00000001
An acknowledge clock pulse
A repeated start condition, (Sr)

After the start condition (S) has been transmitted by a master requiring bus access, the

3-10

start byte (00000001) is transmitted. Another
microcomputer can therefore sample the
SDA line on a low sampling rate until one of
the seven zeros in the start byte is detected.
After detection of this Low level on the SDA
line, the microcomputer is then able to switch
to a higher sampling rate in order to find the
second start condition (Sr) which is then used
for synchronization.
A hardware receiver will reset at the reception
of the second start condition (Sr) and will
therefore ignore the start byte.
After the start byte, an acknowledge-related
clock pulse is generated. This is present only
to conform with the byte handling format used
on the bus. No device is allowed to acknowledge the start byte.

Existing CBUS receivers can be connected to

DLEN has to be connected and the acknowl·

are multiples of 8·bit bytes; however, CBUS
devices have different formats.
In a mixed bus structure, 12C devices are not
allowed to respond on the CBUS message.
For this reason, a special CBUS address
(0000001 X) has been reserved. No 12 C device will respond to this address. After the
transmission of the CBUS address, the DLEN
line can be made active and transmission,
according to the CBUS format, can be performed (Figure 16).

Devices operating on a fixed supply voltage
different from + 5V (e.g. 12L), must also have
these input levels of 1.5V and 3V for Vil and
VIH, respectively.
For devices operating over a wide range of
supply voltages (e.g. CMOS), the following
levels have been defined:
Vilmax = 0.3V DD (maximum input Low

For both groups of devices, the maximum
output Low value has been defined:
VO lmax = OAV (max. output voltage Low)
at 3mA sink current

3-11

The maximum low-level input current at
VOlmax of both the SDA pin and the SCL pin
of an 12C device is -101lA, including the
leakage current of a possible output stage.
The maximum high·level input current at
0.9VDD of both the SDA pin and SCL pin of an
12C device is 10llA, including the leakage
current of a possible output stage.
The maximum capacitance of both the SDA

Devices with fixed input levels can each have
their own power supply of + 5V ± 10%. Pullup resistors can be connected to any supply
(see Figure 17).
However, the devices with input levels related
to VDD must have one common supply line to
which the pull-up resistor is also connected
(see Figure 18).

TIMING

SOA

The clock on the 12C bus has a minimum Low
period of 4.71-'s and a minimum High period of
41-'s. Masters in this mode can generate a bus
clock with a frequency from 0 to 100kHz.

~L

All devices connected to the bus must be
able to follow transfers with frequencies up to
100kHz, either by being able to transmit or
receive at that speed or by applying the clock
synchronization procedure which will force
the master into a wait state and stretch the
Low periods. In the latter case the frequency
is reduced.

detail. A description of the abbreviations used
is shown in Table 2. All timing references are

LOW-SPEED MODE

Data Format and Timing

As explained previously, there is a difference
in speed on the 12C bus between fast hardware devices and the relatively slow microcomputer which relies on software polling.
For this reason a low speed mode is available
on the 12C bus to allow these microcomputers
to poll the bus less often.

The bus clock in this mode has a Low period
of 130l-'s ± 251-'s and a High period of
390l-'s ± 251-'s, resulting in a clock frequency
of approx. 2kHz. The duty cycle of the clock
has this Low-to-High ratio to allow for more
efficient use of microcomputers without an
on-chip hardware 12C bus interface. In this
mode also, data transfer with acknowledge is
obligatory. The maximum number of bytes
transferred is not limited (Figure 22).

Start and Stop Conditions
In the low-speed mode, data transfer is preceded by the start procedure.

APPENDIX A
Maximum and minimum values of the pull-up

Figure 20).
In a 12C bus system these values depend on
the following parameters:
- Supply voltage
- Bus capacitance
- Number of devices (input current + leakage current)
1) The supply voltage limits the minimum value of the Rp resistor due
to the specified 3mA as minimum
sink current of the output stages,
at OAV as maximum low voltage.
In Graph 1, VDD against Rpmin is

In Graph 2, Rsmax against Rp is shown.
2) The bus capacitance is the total capacitance of wire, connections, and

specified rise time of 1MS.

In Graph 3. the bus capacitance - RPmax
relationship is shown.
3) The maximum high-level input current
of each input! output connection has a
specified value of 10p.A max. Due to
the desired noise margin of 0.2 VDD

Serial Bus: Theory and

Author: Carl Fenger

INTRODUCTION
The 12C (Inter-IC) bus is becoming a popular
concept which implements an innovative serial bus protocol that needs to be understood.
On the hardware level 12C is a collection of
microcomputers (MAB8400, PCD3343,
83C3S1, 84CXX) and peripherals (lCD/lED
drivers, RAM, ROM, clock/timer, AID, D/ A,
IR transcoder, I/O, DTMF generator, and
various tuning circuits) that communicate serially over a two-wire bus, serial data (SDA)
and serial clock (SCl). The 12C structure is
optimized for hardware simplicity. Parallel
address and data buses inherent in conventional systems are replaced by a serial protocol that transmits both address and bidirectional data over a 2-line bus. This means that
interconnecting wires are reduced to a minimum; only Vee, ground and the two-wire bus
are required to link the controller(s) with the
peripherals or other controllers. This results in
reduced chip size, pin count, and interconnections. An 12C system is therefore smaller,
simpler, and cheaper to implement than its
parallel counterpart.
The data rate of the 12C bus makes it suited
for systems that do not require high speed.
An 12C controller is well suited for use in
systems such as television controllers, telephone sets, appliances, displays or applications involving human interface. Typically an
12C system might be used in a control function where digitally-controllable elements are
adjusted and monitored via a central processor.
The 12 C bus is an innovative hardware interface which provides the software designer
the flexibility to create a truly multi-master
environment. Built into the serial interface of
the controllers are status registers which
monitor all possible bus conditions: bus free/
busy, bus contention, slave acknowledgement, and bus interference. Thus an 12 C
system might include several controllers on
the same bus each with the ability to asynchronously communicate with peripherals or
each other. This provision also provides expandability for future add-on controllers. (The
12C system is also ideal for use in environments where the bus is subject to noise.
Distorted transmissions are immediately detected by the hardware and the information
presented to the software.) A slave acknowl-

February 1987

Application Note
edgement on every byte also facilitates data
integrity.
An 12C system can be as simple or sophisticated as the operating environment demands. Whether in a single master or multimaster system, noisy or 'safe', correct system operation can be insured under software
control.

CONTROLLERS
Currently the family of 12 C controllers include
the MAB8400, and the PCD 3343 (the
PCD3343 is basically a CMOS version of the
MAB8400). The MAB8400 is based on the
8048 architecture with the 12C interface builtin. The instruction set for the MAB8400 is
similar to the 8048, with a few instructions
added and a few deleted. Tables 1 and 2
summarize the differences.
Programs for the MAB8400 and PCD 3343
may be assembled on an 8048-assembler
using the macros listed in Appendix A. The
serial 110 instructions involve moving data to
and from the SO, SI, and S2 serial 110 control
registers. The block diagram of the 12C interface is shown in Figure 1.

SERIAL I/O INTERFACE
A block diagram of the Serial Input/Output
(SIO) is shown in Figure 1. The clock line of
the serial bus (SCl) has exclusive use of Pin
3, while the Serial Data (SDA) line shares Pin

2 with parallel 110 signal P23 of port 2.
Consequently, only three I/O lines are available for port 2 when the 12C interface is
enabled.
Communication between the microcomputer
and interface takes place via the internal bus
of the microcomputer and the Serial Interrupt
Request line. Four registers are used to store
data and information controlling the operation
of the interface:
• data shift register SO
• address register SO'
• status register S 1
• clock control register S2.

THE 12C BUS INTERFACE:
SERIAL CONTROL REGISTERS

SO, S1
All serial 12 C transfers occur between the
accumulator and register SO. The 12C hardware takes care of clocking outlin the data,
and receiving/generating an acknowledge. In
addition, the state of the 12C bus is controlled
and monitored via the bus control register SI.
A definition of the registers is as follows:
Data Shift Register SO - SO is the data shift
register used to perform the conversion between serial and parallel data format. All
transmissions or receptions take place
through register SO MSB first. All 12 C bus
receptions or transmissions involve moving
data tolfrom the accumulator from/to SO.

The losing Master is now configured as a
slave which could be addressed during this
very same cycle. These provisions allow for a
number of microcomputers to exist on the
same bus. With properly written subroutines,
software for anyone of the controllers may
regard other masters as transparent.

12C PROTOCOL AND
ASSEMBLY LANGUAGE
EXAMPLES
12C data transfers follow a well-defined protocol. A transfer always takes place between a
master and a slave. Currently a microcomputer can be master or slave, while the 'CLIPS'
peripherals are always slaves. In a 'bus-free'
condition, both SCl and SDA lines are kept
logical high by external pull-up resistors. All
bus transfers are bounded by a 'Start' and a
'Stop' condition. A 'Start' condition is defined
as the SDA line making a high-to-Iow transition while the Sel line Is high. At this point,
the internal hardware on all slaves are activated and are prepared to clock-in the next 8
bits and interpret it as a 7-bit address and a
R/Vii control bit (MSB first). All slaves have an
internal address (most have 2 - 3 programmable address bits) which is then compared
with the received address. The slave that
recognized its address will respond by pulling
the data line low during a ninth clock generated by the master (all 12 C byte transfers
require the master to generate 8 clock pulses
plus a ninth acknowledge-related clock
pulse). The slave-acknowledge will be registered by the master as a '0' appearing in the
lRB (last Received Bit) position of the S1
serial 1/0 status register. If this bit is high

after a transfer attempt, this indicates that a
slave did not acknowledge, and that the
transfer should be repeated.
After the desired slave has acknowledged its
address, it is ready to either send or receive
data in response to the master's driving
clock. All other slaves have withdrawn from
the bus. In addition, for multi-master systems,
the start condition has set the' Bus Busy' bit
of the serial 110 register S1 on all masters on
the bus. This gives a software indication to
other masters that the bus is in use and to
wait until the bus is free before attempting an
access.
There are two types of 12 C peripherals that
now must be defined: there are those with
only a chip address such as the 1/0 expander, PCF8574, and those with a chip address
plus an internal address such as the static
RAM, PCF8570. Thus after sending a start
condition, address, and R/Vii bit, we must
take into account what type of slave is being
addressed. In the case of a slave with only a
chip address, we have already indicated its
address and data direction (R/Vii) and are
therefore ready to send or receive data. This
is performed by the master generating bursts
of 9 clock pulses for each byte that is sent or
received. The transaction for writing one byte
to a slave with a chip address only is shown in
Figure 3.
In this transfer, all bus activity is invoked by
writing the appropriate control byte to the
serial 110 control register S1, and by moving
data tolfrom the serial bus buffer register SO.
Coming from a known state (MOV S1,#18HSlave, Receiver, Bus not Busy) we first load
the serial 1/0 buffer SO with the desired

·only values that may bo used in the low speed mode
(ASC;1).

Vce
These speeds represent the frequency of the
serial clock bursts and do not reflect the
speed of the processor's main clock (i.e. it
controls the bus speed and has no effect on
the CPU's execution speed).

SCl

SoA

BUS. ARBITRATION
Due to the wire-AND configuration of the 12C
bus, and the self-synchronizing clock circuitry
of 12C masters, controllers with varying clock
speeds can access the bus without clock
contention. During arbitration, the resultant
clock on the bus will have a low period equal
to the longest of the low periods; the high
period will equal the shortest of the high
periods. Similarly, when two masters attempt
to drive the data line simultaneously, the data
is 'ANDed', the master generating a low while
the other is driving a high will win arbitration.
The resultant bus level will be low, and the
loser will withdraw from the bus and set its
'Arbitration lost' flag (S1 bit 3).

To transmit to a slave, the Master, Transmitter, Bus Busy, PIN (Pending Interrupt Not),
and ESO (Enable Serial Output) must be set
to a 1. This results in an 'F8H' being written to
S1. This word defines the controller as a
Master Transmitter, invokes the transfer by
setting the' Bus Busy' bit, clears the Pending
Interrupt Not (an inverted flag indicating the
completion of a complete byte transfer), and
activates the serial output logic by setting the
Enable Serial Output (ESO) bit.

BIT COUNTER S12, S11, S10
BC2, BC1, and BCO comprise a bit-counter
which indicates to the logic how long the
word is to be clocked out over the serial data
line. By setting this to a aaOH, we are telling it
February 1987

to produce 9 clocks (8 bits plus an acknowledge clock) for this transfer. The bit counter
will then count off each bit as it is transmitted.
The bit counter possibilities are shown in
Table 4.
Thus the bit counter keeps track of the
number of clock pulses remaining in a serial
transfer. Additionally, there is a not-acknowledge mode (controlled through bit 6 of clock
control register S2) which inhibits the acknowledge clock pulse, allowing the possibility of straight serial transfer. We may thus
define the word size for a serial transfer (by

pre loading BC2, BC1, BCa with the appropriate control number), with or without an acknowledge-related clock pulse being generated. This makes the controller able to transmit
serial data to most any serial device regardless of its protocol (e.g., C-bus devices).

pulling the data line low during the ninth clock
pulse. During this period, the software (which
runs on the processor's 4MHz clock) will
have been either waiting for the transfer to be
completed by polling the PIN bit in S1 which
goes low on completion of a transfer/reception (whose length is defined by the preloaded Bit-counter value), or by the hardware
in Serial Interrupt mode. The serial interrupt
(vectored to 07H) is enabled via the EN SI
(enable serial interrupt) instruction.
At the point when PIN goes low (or the serial
interrupt is received) the 9-bit transfer has
been completed. The acknowledgement bit
will now be in the LRB position of register S1,
and may be checked in the routine' ACKWT'
(Wait for Acknowledge) as shown in Figure 4.
This routing must go one step further in multimaster systems; the possibility of an Arbitration Lost situation may occur if other masters
are present on the bus. This condition may be
detected by checking the 'AL' bit (bit 3). If
arbitration has been lost, provisions for reattempting the transmission should be taken.
If arbitration is lost, there is the possibility that
the controller is being addressed as a Slave.
If this condition is to be recognized, we must
test on the 'AAS' bit (bit 2). A 'General Call'
address (OOH) has also been defined as an
'all-call' address for all slaves; bit 1, ADO,
must be tested if this feature is to be recognized by a Master.
After a successful address transfer/acknowledge, the slave is ready to be sent its data.
The instruction MOV SO,A will now automatically send the contents of the accumulator
out on the bus. After calling the ACKWT
routine once more, we are ready to terminate
the transfer. The Stop condition is created by
the instruction 'MOV S1, #ODBH'. This resets the bus-busy bit, which tells the hardware to generate a Stop - the data line
makes a low-to-high transition while the clock
remains high. All bus-busy flags on other
masters on the bus are reset by this signal.
The transfer is now complete - PCFB574
I/O Expandor will transfer the serial data
stream to its B output pins and latch them
until further update.

MASTER READS ONE BYTE
FROM SLAVE
A read operation is a similar process; the
address, however, will be 41 H, the LSB
indicating to the I/O device that a read is to
be performed. During the data portion of a
read, the 110 port B574 will transmit the
contents of its latches in response to the
clock generated by the master. The Master/
Receiver in this case generates a low-level
acknowledge on reception of each byte (a
'positive' acknowledge). Upon completion of
a read, the master must generate a 'negative'
acknowledge during the ninth clock to indicate to the slaves that the read operation is
finished. This is necessary because an arbitrary number of bytes may be read within the
same transfer. A negative acknowledge consists of a high signal on the data line during
the ninth clock of the last byte to be read. To
accomplish this, the master B400 must leave
the acknowledge mode just before the final
byte, read the final byte (producing only B
clock pulses), program the bit-counter with
001 (preparing for a one-bit negative acknowledge pulse), and simply move the contents of SO to the accumulator. This final
instruction accomplishes two things simultaneously: it transfers the final byte to the
accumulator and produces one clock pulse
on the SCL line. The structure of the serial
110 register SO is such that a read from it
causes a double-buffered transfer from the
12 C bus to SO, while the original contents of
SO are transferred to the accumulator. Because the number of clocks produced on the
bus is determined by the control number in
the Bit Counter, by presetting it to 001, only

3-20

one clock is generated. At this point in time
the slave is still waiting for an acknowledge;
the bus is high due to the pull-up, as single
clock pulse in this condition is interpreted as
a 'negative' acknowledge. The slave has now
been informed that reading is completed; a
Stop condition is now generated as before.
The read process (one byte from a slave with
only a chip address) is shown in Figure 5.

Peripheral; Single-Master, Single-Address Slave
These examples apply to a slave with a chip
address - more than one byte can be written/read within the same transfer; however,
this option is more applicable to 12 C devices
with sub-addresses such as the static RAMs
or Clock/Calendar. In the case of these types
of devices, a slightly different protocol is
used. The RAM, for example, requires a chip
address and an internal memory location
before it can deliver or accept a byte of
information. During a write operation, this is

done by simply writing the secondary address
right after the chip address - the peripheral
is designed to interpret the second byte as an
internal address. In the case of a Read
operation, the slave peripheral must send
data back to the Master after it has been
addressed and sub-addressed. To accomplish this, first the Start, Address, and Subaddress is transmitted. Then we have a
repeated start condition to reverse the direc·
tion of the data transfer, followed by the chip

3-22

address and RD, then a data string (w/
acknowledges). This repeated Start does not
affect other peripherals - they have been
deactivated and will not reactivate until a
Stop condition is detected. 12 C peripherals
are equipped with auto·incrementing logic
which will automatically transmit or receive
data in consecutive (increasing) locations.
For example, to read 3 consecutive bytes to
PCB8571 RAM locations 00, 01 and 02, we
use the following format as shown in Figure 7.

Signetics Linear Products

Application Note

The Inter-Integrated Circuit (1 2C) Serial Bus:
Theory and Practical Consideration
This routine reads the contents of location 00,
01 and 02 of the PCBB571 12B-byte RAM and
puts them in registers RO, R1, and R2. The
auto-incrementing feature allows the programmer to Indicate only a starting location,
then read an arbitrary block of consecutive
memory addresses. The WAIT 1 loop is
required to poll for the completion of the final
byte because the ACKWT routine will not
recognize the negative acknowledge as a
valid condition.

February 1987

BUS ERROR CONDITIONS:
ACKNOWLEDGE NOT RECEIVED
In the above routines, should a slave fail to
acknowledge, the condition is detected during the 'ACKWT' routine. The occurrence
may indicate one of two conditions: the slave
has failed to operate, or a bus disturbance
has occurred. The software response to either event is dependent on the system application. In either case, the 'BusErr' routine
should reinitialize the bus by issuing a 'Stop'
condition. Provision may then be taken to

3·23

repeat the transfer an arbitrary number of
times. Should the symptom persist, either an
error condition will be entered, or a backup
device can be activated.
These sample routines represent single-master systems. A more detailed analysis of multimaster/noisy environment systems will be
treated in further application notes. Examples
of more complex systems can be found in the
'Software Examples' manual; publication
939B 615 70011.

CHARACTERISTICS OF THE 12C
BUS
The 12C bus is for 2-way, 2-line communication between different ICs or modules. The
two lines are a serial data line (SDA) and a

SDA

serial clock line (SCL). Both lines must be
connected to a positive supply via a pull-up
resistor when connected to the output stages
of a device. Data transfer may be initiated
only when the bus is not busy.

Bit Transfer
One data bit is transferred during each clock
pulse. The data on the SDA line must remain
stable during the HIGH period of the clock
pulse, as changes in the data line at this time
will be interpreted as control signals .

Acknowledge
The number of data bytes transferred between the start and stop conditions from
transmitter to receiver is not limited. Each
byte of eight bits is followed by one acknowledge bit. The acknowledge bit is a HIGH level
put on the bus by the transmitter whereas the
master generates an extra acknowledge re-

lated clock pulse. A slave receiver which is
addressed must generate an acknowledge
after the reception of each byte. Also a
master must generate an acknowledge after
the reception of each byte that has been
clocked out. of the slave transmitter. The
device that acknowledges has to pull down
the SDA line during the acknowledge clock
pulse, so that the SDA line is stable LOW.

During the HIGH period of the acknowledge
related clock pulse, setup and hold times
must be taken into account. A master receiver must signal an end of data to the transmitter by not generating an acknowledge on the
last byte that has been clocked out of the
slave. In this event the transmitter must leave
the data line HIGH to enable the master to
generate a stop condition.

The 120 bus is for 2-way, 2-line communication between different lOs or modules. The
two lines are a serial data line (SDA) and a

serial clock line (SOL). Both lines must be

only when the bus is not busy.

Bit Transfer
One data bit is transferred during each clock
pulse. The data on the SDA line must remain

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
Oscillator
The PCF8573 has an integrated crystal·controlled oscillator which provides the time base
for the prescaler. The frequency is determined by a single 32.768kHz crystal connected between OSCI and OSCO. A trimmer is
connected between OSCI and VDD.

NOTE:
0: connected to Vss 1 (LOW)
1: connected to VDD (HIGH)

Prescaler and Time Counter
The prescaler provides a 128Hz signal at the
FSET output for fine adjustment of the crystal
oscillator without loading it. The prescaler
also generates a pulse once a second to
advance the seconds counter. The carry of
the prescaler and the seconds counter are
available at the outputs SEC and MIN, respectively, and are also readable via the 12C
bus. The mark-to-space ratio of both signals
is 1:1. The time counter is advanced one
count by the falling edge of output signal MIN.
A transition from HIGH to LOW of output
signal SEC triggers MIN to change state. The
time counter counts minutes, hours, days and
months, and provides a full calendar function
which needs to be corrected once every four
years. Cycle lengths are shown in Table 1.

Alarm Register
The alarm register is a 24-bit memory. It
stores the time-point for the next setting of
the status flag COMPo Details of writing and
reading of the alarm register are included in
the description of the characteristics of the
12C bus.

February 10, 1987

Comparator
The comparator compares the contents of
the alarm register and the time counter, each
with a length of 24 bits. When these contents
are equal, the flag COMP will be set 4ms after
the falling edge of MIN. This set condition
occurs once at the beginning of each minute.
This information is latched, but can be
cleared by an instruction via the 12C bus. A
clear instruction may be transmitted immediately after the flag is set, and then it will be
executed. Flag COMP information is also
available at the output COMP. The comparison may be based upon hours and minutes
only if the internal flag NODA (no date) is se\.
Flag NODA can be set and cleared by separate instructions via the 12C bus, but it is
undefined until the first set or clear instruction
has been received. Both COMP and NODA
flags are readable via the 12C bus.

Power On/Power Fail Detection
If the voltage VDD - Vss 1 falls below a certain
value, the operation of the clock becomes
undefined. Thus, a warning signal is required
to indicate that faultless operation of the
clock is not guaranteed. This information is

4-25

latched in a flag called POWF (Power Fail)
and remains latched after restoration of the
correct supply voltage until a write procedure
with EXECUTIVE ADDRESS has been received. The flag POWF can be set by an
internally-generated power fail level-discriminator signal for application with (VDD - VSS1)
greater than VTH1, or by an externally-generated power fail signal for application with
(VDD- VSS1) less than VTHI' The external
signal must be applied to the input PFIN. The
input stage operates with signals of any slow
rise and fall times. Internally-or externallycontrolled POWF can be selected by input
EXTPF as shown in Table 2.
The external power fail control operates by
absence of the VDD - Vss2 supply. Therefore,
the input levels applied to PFIN and EXTPF
must be within the range of VDD - Vss 1. A
LOW level at PFIN indicates a power fail.
POWF is readable via the 12C bus. A poweron reset for the 12C bus control is generated
on-chip when the supply voltage VDD - VSS2
is less than VTH2'

PCF8573

Clock/Calendar With Serial I/O

Interface Level Shifters

Bit Transfer (see Figure 1)

The level shifters adjust the 5V operating
voltage (Voo - Vss 2) of the microcontroller to
the internal supply voltage (Voo - VSS1) of the
clock/calendar. The oscillator and counter
are not influenced by the Voo - VSS2 supply
voltage. If the voltage Voo - VSS2 is absent
(VSS2 = Voo) the output signal of the level
shifter is HIGH because Voo is the common
node of the Voo - Vss2 and the Voo - Vss l
supplies. Because the level shifters invert the
input signal, the internal circuit behaves as if
a lOW signal is present on the inputs. FSET,
SEC, MIN and COMP are CMOS push-pull
output stages. The driving capability of these
outputs is lost when the supply voltage
Voo - VSS2 = O.

One data bit is transferred during each clock
pulse. The data on the SDA line must remain
stable during the HIGH period of the clock
pulse as changes in the data line at this time
will be interpreted as control signals.

Start and Stop Conditions
(see Figure 2)
Both data and clock lines remain HIGH when
the bus is not busy. A HIGH-to-lOW transition of the data line while the clock is HIGH is
defined as the start condition (S). A lOW-toHIGH transition of the data line while the
clock is HIGH is defined as the stop condition
(P).

System Configuration
(see Figure 3)
A device generating a message is a "transmitter", a device receiving a message is the
"receiver". The device that controls the message is the" master" and the devices which
are controlled by the master are the
"slaves".

CHARACTERISTICS OF THE 12C
BUS
The 12 C bus is for 2-way, 2-line communication between different ICs or modules. The
two lines are a serial data line (SDA) and a
serial clock line (SCl). Both lines must be
connected to a positive supply via a pull-up
resistor when connected to the output stages
of a device. Data transfer may be initiated
only when the bus is not busy.

Acknowledge (see Figure 4)
The number of data bytes transferred between the start and stop conditions from
transmitter to receiver is not limited. Each
byte of eight bits is followed by one acknowledge bit. The acknowledge bit is a HIGH level

r--,

SDA

SCL

put on the bus by the transmitter whereas the
master generates an extra acknowledge-related clock pulse. A slave receiver which is
addressed must generate an acknowledge
after the reception of each byte. Also a
master must generate an acknowledge after
the reception of each byte that has been
clocked out of the slave transmitter. The
device that acknowledges has to pull down
the SDA line during the acknowledge clock
pulse. So that the SDA line is stable lOW
during the HIGH period of the acknowledge
related clock pulse, setup and hold times
must be taken into account. A master receiver must signal an end of data to the transmitter by not generating an acknowledge on the
last byte that has been clocked out of the
slave. In this event, the transmitter must leave
the data line HIGH to enable the master to
generate a stop condition (see Figures 11
and 12).

Timing SpeCifications
Within the 12C bus specifications a highspeed mode and a low-speed mode are
defined. The PCF8573 operates in both
modes and the timing requirements are as
follows:
High-Speed Mode - Masters generate a
bus clock with a maximum frequency of
100kHz. Detailed timing is shown in Figure 5.

Before any data is transmitted on the 12C bus,
the device which should respond is addressed first. The addressing is always done
with the first byte transmitted after the start
procedure.

Product Specification

Linear Products

FEATURES
• Operating supply voltage: 2_5V to
6V
• Low standby current
consumption: max. 10pA
• Bidirectional expander
• Open-drain Interrupt output
• 8-bit remote I/O port for the 12C
bus
• Peripheral for the MAB8400 and
PCF8500 microcomputer families
• Latched outputs with high
current drive capability for
directly driving LEOs
• Address by 3 hardware address
pins for use of up to 8 devices
(up to 16 possible with mask
option)

The PCF8574 has low current consumption and includes latched outputs with
high current drive .capability for directly
driving LEDs. It also possesses an interrupt line (INn which is connected to the
interrupt logic of the microcomputer on
the 12C bus. By sending an interrupt
signal on this line, the remote 110 can
inform the microcomputer if there is
incoming data on its ports without having
to communicate via the 12C bus. This
means that the PCF8574 can remain a
simple slave device.

•

PIN CONFIGURATION

DESCRIPTION
The PCF8574 is a single-chip silicon
gate CMOS circuit. It provides remote
1/0 expansion for the MAB8400 and
PCF8500 microcomputer families via the
two-line serial bidirectional bus (12C). It
can also interface microcomputers without a serial interface to the 12C bus (as a
slave function only). The device consists
of an 8-bit quasi-bidirectional port and an
12C interface.

CHARACTERISTICS OF THE 12c
BUS
The 12C bus is for 2-way, 2-line communication between different ICs or modules. The
two lines are a serial data line (SDA) and a

SDA

PCF8574

serial clock line (SCl). Both lines must be
connected to a positive supply via a pull-up
resistor when connected to the output stages
of a device. Data transfer may be' initiated
only when .the bus is not busy.

Bit Transfer
One data bit is transferred during each clock
pulse. The data on the SDA line must remain
stable during the HIGH period of the clock
pulse, as changes in the data line at this time
will be interpreted as control signals.

lated clock pulse. A slave receiver which is
addressed must generate an acknowledge
after the reception of each byte. Also, a
master must generate an acknowledge after
the reception of each byte that has been
clocked out of the slave transmitter. The
device that acknowledges has to pull down
the SDA line during the acknowledge clock
pulse, so that the SDA line is stable LOW

Acknowledge
The number of data bytes transferred between the start and stop conditions from
transmitter to receiver is not limited. Each
byte of eight bits is followed by one acknowledge bit. The acknowledge bit is a HIGH level
put on the bus by the transmitter whereas the
master generates an extra acknowledge re-

during the HIGH period of the acknowledge.
Related clock pulse, setup and hold times
must be taken into account. A master receiver must signal an end of data to the transmitter by not generating an acknowledge on the
last byte that has been clocked out of the
slave. In this event the transmitter must leave
the data line HIGH to enable the master to
generate a stop condition.

SAB3013

Hex 6-Bit DAC

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The SAB3013 is designed to deliver analog
values in microcomputer-controlled television
receivers and radio receivers. The circuit comprises an analog memory and 01 A converter
for six analog functions with a 6-bit resolution
for each. The information for the analog memory is transferred by the microcomputer via an
asynchronous serial data bus.
The SAB3013 accomplishes a word format
recognition, so it is able to operate one
common data bus together with circuits having different word formats.
The data word of the microcomputer used for
the SAB3013 consists of information for addressing the appropriate SAB3013 circuit (2
bits), for addressing the analog memories
concerned (3 bits) and processing of the
wanted analog value (6 bits). The address of
the circuit is externally programmable via two
inputs. It is possible to address up to four
SAB3013 circuits via one common bus.
The built-in oscillator can be used for a frequency between 30kHz and l.4MHz. The analog values are generated as a pulse pattern
with a repetition rate of fClK/64 (maximum
21.8kHz at fClK = l.4MHz), and the analog

November 14, 1986

values are determined by the ratio of the
HIGH-time and the cycle time. A OC voltage
proportional to the analog value is obtained by
means of an external integration network (Iowpass filter).

HANDLING
Inputs and outputs are protected against
electrostatic charge in normal handling. However, to be totally safe, it is desirable to take
normal precautions appropriate to handling
MaS devices.

• The start-bit must be LOW
• The system address bits must be
A = SAA and B = SAB
• The analog address must be valid
The data word for the SAB3013 consists of
the following bits (see Figure 2):
1 start-bit
2 system address bits (A and B)
3 address bits for selection of the required
analog memory
6 data bits for processing the analog value

ADDRESS INPUTS (SAA, SAB)
OPERATION DESCRIPTION
The data input is achieved serially via the
inputs OATA, OLEN and CLB. Clock pulses
have to be applied at input CLB for data
processing at input OATA. Oata processing is
only possible when OLEN = HIGH. The data
from the data buffer is loaded directly into the
output latch on receipt of a load pulse at input
CLB (OLEN = LOW), provided the following
conditions are met:
• 12 clock pulses must be received at
input CLB (word format control) during
transmission (OLEN = HIGH)

4-49

The address of the SAB3013 is programmed
at the inputs SAA and SAB. These inputs
must be defined and not left open-circuit.

Reset
The circuit internally generates a reset cycle
with a duration of one clock cycle after switching on the supply. If a spike on the supply is
likely to destroy data, a reset signal will be
generated. All analog memories are set to
50% (analog value 32/64) after the reset
cycle. The supply voltage rise dVDD/dt must be
maximum O.5V1p.s and minimum 0.2V1p.s.

SAB3035

FLL Tuning and Control Circuit

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The SAS3035 is a monolithic computer interface which provides tuning and control functions and operates in conjunction with a
microcomputer via an 12C bus.

Tuning
This is performed using frequency-locked
loop digital control. Data corresponding to the
required tuner frequency is stored in a 15-bit
frequency buffer. The actual tuner frequency,
divided by a factor of 256 (or by 64) by a
prescaler, is applied via a gate to a 15-bit
frequency counter. This input (FDIV) is measured over a period controlled by a time
reference counter and is compared with the
contents of the frequency buffer. The result of
the comparison is used to control the tuning
voltage so that the tuner frequency equals
the contents of the frequency buffer multiplied by 50kHz within a programmable tuning
window (TUW).
The system cycles over a period of 6Ams (or
2.56ms), controlled by the time reference
counter which is clocked by an on-chip 4MHz
reference oscillator. Regulation of the tuning
voltage is performed by a charge pump frequency-locked loop system. The charge IT
flowing into the tuning voltage amplifier is
controlled by the tuning counter, 3-bit DAC,
and the charge pump circuit. The charge IT is
linear with the frequency deviation fl.f in steps
of 50kHz. For loop gain control, the relationship fl.IT I fl.f is programmable. In the normal
mode (when control bits TUHNO and TUHN1
are both at logic 1, see OPERATION), the
minimum charge IT at fl.f = 50kHz equals
250pAi p.s (typical).
Sy programming the tuning sensitivity bits
(TUS), the charge IT can be doubled up to 6
times. If correction-in-band (COIS) is programmed, the charge can be further doubled
up to three times in relation to the tuning
voltage level. From this, the maximum charge

IT at fl.f=50kHz equals 26 X 23 X 250pAi p.s
(typical).
The maximum tuning current I is 875p.A
(typical). In the tuning-hold (TUHN) mode
(TUHN is Active-LOW), the tuning current I is
reduced and, as a consequence, the charge
into the tuning amplifier is also reduced.

1
mab

The minimum tuning voltage which can be
generated during digital tuning is programmable by VTMI to prevent the tuner from being
driven into an unspecified low tuning voltage
region.

The AFC has programmable polarity and
transconductance; the latter can be doubled
up to 3 times, depending on the tuning
voltage level if correction-in-band is used.

Eight 6-bit digital-to-analog convertersDACO to DAC7 - are provided for analog
control.

The direction of tuning is programmable by
using control bits TDIRD (tuning direction
down) and TDIRU (tuning direction up). If a
tuner enters a region in which oscillation
stops, then, providing the prescaler remains
stable, no FDIV signal is supplied to CITAC. In
this situation the system will tune up, moving
away from frequency lock-in. This situation is
avoided by setting TDIRD which causes the
system to tune down. In normal operation
TDIRD must be cleared.

CITAC goes into the power-down reset mode
when VCC1 is below 8.5V (typical). In this
mode all registers are set to a defined state.
Reset can also be programmed.

If a tuner stops oscillating and the prescaler
becomes unstable by going into self-oscillation at a very high frequency, the system will

Setting both TDIRD and TDIRU causes the
digital tuning to be interrupted and AFC to be
switched on.

An in-lock situation can be detected by reading FLOCK. When the tuner oscillator frequency is within the programmable tuning
window (TUW), FLOCK is set to logic 1. If the
frequency is also within the programmable
AFC hold range (AFCR), which always occurs
if AFCR is wider than TUW, control bit AFCT
can be set to logic 1. When set, digital tuning
will be switched off, AFC will be switched on
and FLOCK will stay at logic 1 as long as the
oscillator frequency is within AFCR. If the
frequency of the tuning oscillator does not
remain within AFCR, AFCT is cleared automatically and the system reverts to digital
tuning. To be able to detect this situation, the
occurrence of positive and negative transitions in the FLOCK signal can be read (FLI
1Nand FLlON). AFCT can also be cleared by
programming the AFCT bit to logic O.

react by tuning down, moving away from
frequency lock-in. To overcome this, the system can be forced to tune up at the lowest
sensitivity (TUS) value, by setting TDIRU.

Control
For tuner band selection there are four outputs-P10 to P13-which are capable of
sourcing up to 50mA at a voltage drop of less
than 600mV with respect to the separate
power supply input VCC2
For additional digital control, four open-collector 1/0 ports - P20 to P23 - are provided. Ports P22 and P23 are capable of detecting positive and negative transitions in their
input signals. With the aid of port P20, up to
three independent module addresses can be
programmed.

OPERATION
Write
CITAC is controlled via a bidirectional twowire 12C bus. For programming, a module

Tuning Sensitivity
To be able to program an optimum loop gain,
the charge IT can be programmed by chang·
ing T using tuning sensitivity (TUS). Table 3
shows the minimum charge IT obtained by
programming the TUS bits at AI=50kHz;
TUHNO and TUHNl = logic 1.

Tuning Window
Digital tuning is interrupted and FLOCK is set
to logic 1 (in·lock) when the absolute devia·
tion IAfl between the tuner oscillator frequen·
cy and the programmed frequency is smaller
than the programmed TUW value (see Table
5). If IAfl is up to 50kHz above the values
listed in Table 5, it is possible for the system
to be locked depending on the phase rela·
tionship between FDIV and the reference
counter.
AFC
When AFCT is set to logic 1 it will not be
cleared and the AFC will remain on as long as
IAfl is less than the value programmed for the
AFC hold range AFCR (see Table 6). It is
possible for the AFC to remain on for values
of up to 50kHz more than the programmed
value depending on the phase relationship
between FDIV and the reference counter.
Transconductance
The transconductance (g) of the AFC amplifier
is programmed via the AFC sensitivity bits
AFCS as shown in Table 7.

implemented as follows:

Frequency Measuring Window
The frequency measuring window which is
programmed must correspond with the division factor of the prescaler in use (see
Table 8).

P13, P12, Pl1, Pl0 - Band select outputs. If
a logic 1 is programmed on any of the POD
bits D3 to Do, the relevant output goes HIGH.
All outputs are LOW after reset.

TDIRD (down), are at logic 0 after reset.

P23, P22, P21, P20 - Open-collector 110
ports. If a logic 0 is programmed on any of the
POD bits D7 to D4 , the relevant output is
forced LOW. All outputs are at logic 1 after
reset (high impedance state).

FLOCK - Set to logic 1 when the tuning
oscillator frequency is within the programmed

FL/1N - Set to logic 0 (Active-LOW) when
FLOCK changes from 0 to 1 and is reset to
logic 1 automatically after tuning information
has been read.
FL/ON - As for FL/1 N, but is set to logic 0
when FLOCK changes from 1 to O.
FOV - Indicates frequency overflow. When
the tuner oscillator frequency is too high with
respect to the programmed frequency, FOV is
at logic 1, and when too low, FOV is at logic
O. FOV is not valid when TDIRU and/or
TDIRD are set to logic 1.
RESN - Set to logic 0 (Active-LOW) by a
programmed reset or a power-down reset. It
is reset to logic 1 automatically after tuning/
reset information has been read.
MWN - MWN (frequency measuring window,
Active-LOW) is at logic 1 for a period of
1.28ms, during which time the results of
frequency measurement are processed. This
time is independent of the cycle period.
During the remaining time, MWN is at logic 0
and the received frequency is measured.
When slightly different frequencies are programmed repeatedly and AFC is switched on,
the received frequency can be measured
using FOV and FLOCK. To prevent the frequency counter and frequency buffer being
loaded at the same time, frequency should be
programmed only during the period of
MWN = logic O.
Port Information Bits
P23/1N, P22/1N - Set to logic 0 (ActiveLOW) at a LOW-to-HIGH transition in the
input voltage on P23 and P22, respectively.
Both are reset to logic 1 after the port
information has been read.
P23/0N, P22/0N - As for P23/1 Nand P22/
1N, but are set to logic 0 at a HIGH-to-LOW
transition.

Microcomputer Peripheral Ie

Application Note

Author: K.H. Seidler
The necessity for television set manufacturers to reduce costs, provide more features,
simplify tuning and incorporate remote control
has led to a need for all-electronic digital
tuning and control circuits. Naturally enough,
component manufacturers would prefer to
meet the need with a dedicated integrated
system which they can make in large quantities. This, however, is impractical because it
would not allow the set manufacturers to
satisfy the widely varying requirements of the
TV market. The most suitable system is
therefore one controlled by a standard microcomputer (e.g., one from the MAB/SCN8400
family), so that the variants can be accommodated by software. The only additional components that then need to be separately
integrated are those required for interfacing
and for performing functions that cannot be
handled by the microcomputer because of
speed, voltage or power consumption considerations. To minimize costs and maximize
performance, however, the partitioning of the
remaining functions and their allocation to
various integrated circuits peripheral to the
microcomputer must be carefully considered.

• Charge pump and 30V tuning-voltage
amplifier
• AFC amplifier
• Logic circuitry for programming the
currents for the charge pump and AFC
amplifier
• Four high-current band switches
• Four general-purpose I/O ports for
additional control functions
• A single-pin crystal-controlled 4MHz
reference oscillator
• Receiving/transmitting logic for the 2wire 12C bus
• Eight static DACs for control of analog
functions associated with the picture
and sound.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
12C Bus
The SAB3035 is microcomputer-controlled
via an asynchronous, Inter-IC (l2C) bus. The
bus is a two-wire, bidirectional serial interconnect which allows integrated circuits to communicate with each other and pass control
and data from one IC to another. The communication commences after a start code incorporating an IC address and ceases on receipt
of a stop code. Every byte of transmitted data
must be acknowledged by the IC that receives it. Data to be read must be clocked out
of the IC by the microcomputer. The address
byte includes a control bit which defines the
read/write mode.

o
analog

control

Figure 1 illustrates the control and tuning
functions in a basic TV set, and shows how
the circuitry is positioned within the cabinet.
Some of the functions are concentrated
around the microcomputer and mounted
close to the front panel to reduce the cost of
the wiring to the local keyboard and displays.
The tuning and analog controls are on the
main chassis. The only link between the
microcomputer and the main chassis is a 2wire bidirectional 12C bus which allows the
microcomputer to read tuning status and
other information from the main chassis, and to
write data regarding required frequency and
analog control settings to the main chassis.
The foregoing considerations have led to the
design of the SAB3035 integrated Computer
Interface for Tuning and Analog Control (CITAC). The SAB3035 is an 12C bus-compatible
microcomputer peripheral IC for digital frequency-locked loop (FLL) tuning and control
of analog functions associated with the TV
picture and sound. This is shown in block
form in Figure 2. The IC incorporates a
frequency synthesizer using the charge pump
FLL principle and contains the following circuits:

which divides the frequency of the voltage·

tion logic, a reference counter and a charge
pump followed by a low·pass filter amplifier.

FDIV Input accepts frequency-divided local
oscillator signals with a level of more than
100mV and a frequency of up to 16MHz. The
frequency measurement period is defined by
passing the internally·amplified signal from
FDIV through a gate which is controlled by
the reference counter. The reference counter
is driven by a crystal·controlled oscillator, the
low level output of which is almost free from
high·order harmonics. This oscillator also
generates the internal clock for the IC. Before
starting the frequency measurement cycle,
the 15 bits of data in the latch register, which
represent the required local oscillator frequency, are loaded into the frequency count·
er. Pulses from the prescaler then decrement
the frequency counter for the duration of the
measurement period.

AN157

The contents of the frequency counter at the
end of the measurement period indicate
whether or not the frequency of the local
oscillator in the tuner is the same as the
desired frequency, which was preloaded into
the frequency counter. If the frequency counter contents is zero after the measurement
period, a flag (FLOCK), which can be read by
the microcomputer serial bus, is set to indicate that the local-oscillator is correctly
tuned.
A frequency counter contents of other than
zero at the end of the measurement period
indicates that the tuner local oscillator frequency is either too high (contents below
zero) or too low (contents above zero). If it is
too high, an overflow flag which initiates the
"tuning down" function is set. To generate
the tuning voltage correction, the tuning
counter is loaded with the remaining contents
of the frequency counter at the end of the
measurement period, and then decremented
to zero by an internal clock. The duration of
the pulse applied to the charge pump is
proportional to the time taken to decrement
the tuning counter to zero, and therefore also
proportional to the tuning error. The frequency correction has a resolution of 50kHz.
The frequency measurement method of tuning used in the SAB3035 can also be easily
combined with analog AFC to allow tracking
of a drifting transmitter frequency within a
limited range. The required tuning mode (with
or without AFC) is selected and controlled by
software. By not testing some of the LSBs of
the contents of the frequency counter, tune-in
"windows" of ± 100kHz or ± 200kHz can be
defined. The corresponding AFC "windows"
are ± 400kHz or ± 800kHz. The SAB3035 also
contains the AFC control logic and amplifier.
To allow matching to a wide variety of tuners,
the tuning loop gain and tuning speed can be
adjusted over a wide range. To minimize
sound on picture, a "tuning hold" mode is
selectable in which the charge pump and
AFC currents can be reduced when correct
tuning has been achieved.

Bandswitching
The IC also incorporates four 50 mA current
sources with outputs at ports Pl0 to P13 for
executing band switching instructions from
the microcomputer. Bandswitching data is
stored in the data output register. The supply
voltage for the current sources is derived
from a separate input (V CC2) and is therefore
independent of the logic supply voltage
(VCC1)'

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

There are four bidirectional ports P20 to P23
for additional control signals to or from the TV
receiver. Typical examples of these additional
controls are stereo/ dual sound, search tuning
and switching for external video sources. The
output data for ports P20 to P23 is stored in
the port data register.

Special thanks are due to F.A.v.d.Kerkhof
and B.Strassenburg for their contributions,
and to M.F.Geurts for the electrical design of
the SAB3035.

Input data must be present during the read
cycle. Two of the inputs are edge-triggered.
Each input signal transition is stored and can
be read by the microcomputer via the serial
data bus. The stored data is cleared after
each read cycle.

Analog Controls
The SAB3035 includes eight static DACs for
controlling analog functions associated with
the TV picture and sound (volume, tone,
brightness, contrast, color saturation, etc.).
External RC networks are not necessary to
complete the D/ A conversion. The control
data for the DACs is derived from the serial
data bus and stored in eight 6-bit latch
registers. The output voltage range at DACO
to DAC7 is O.5V to 10.5V and can be adjusted
in 64 increments.

SAB3036

FLL Tuning and Control Circuit

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The SAB3036 is a monolithic computer interface which provides tuning and control functions and operates in conjunction with a
microcomputer via an 12C bus.

Tuning
This is performed using frequency-locked
loop digital control. Data corresponding to the
required tuner frequency is stored in a IS-bit
frequency buffer. The actual tuner frequency,
divided by a factor of 256 (or by 64) by a
prescaler, is applied via a gate to a IS-bit
frequency counter. This input (FDIV) is measured over a period controlled by a time
reference counter and is compared with the
contents of the frequency buffer. The result of
the comparison is used to control the tuning
voltage so that the tuner frequency equals
the contents of the frequency buffer multiplied by 50kHz within a programmable tuning
window (TUW).
The system cycles over a period of 6Ams (or
2.56ms), controlled by the time reference
counter which is clocked by an on-chip 4MHz
reference oscillator. Regulation of the tuning
voltage is performed by a charge pump frequency-locked loop system. The charge IT
flowing into the tuning voltage amplifier is
controlled by the tuning counter, 3-bit DAC
and the charge pump circuil. The charge IT is
linear with the frequency deviation .::If in steps
of 50kHz. For loop gain control, the relationship .::lIT/.::If is programmable. In the normal
mode (when control bits TUHNO and TUHNI
are both at logic I, see OPERATION), the
minimum charge IT at .::If = 50kHz equals
250j.tA j.LS (typical).
By programming the tuning sensitivity bits
(TUS), the charge IT can be doubled up to 6
times. If correction-in-band (COIB) is programmed, the charge can be further doubled
up to three times in relation to the tuning
voltage level. From this, the maximum charge

IT at .::If = 50kHz equals 26 X 23 X 250j.LAj.Ls
(typical).
The maximum tuning current I is 875j.tA
(typical). In the tuning-hold (TUHN) mode
(TUHN is Active-LOW), the tuning current I is
reduced and as a consequence the charge
into the tuning amplifier is also reduced.
An in-lock situation can be detected by reading FLOCK. When the tuner oscillator frequency is within the programmable tuning
window (TUW), FLOCK is set to logic I. If the
frequency is also within the programmable
AFC hold range (AFCR), which always occurs
if AFCR is wider than TUW, control bit AFCT
can be set to logic I. When set, digital tuning
will be switched off, AFC will be switched on
and FLOCK will stay at logic I as long as the
oscillator frequency is within AFCR. If the
frequency of the tuning oscillator does not
remain within AFCR, AFCT is cleared automatically and the system reverts to digital
tuning. To be able to detect this situation, the
occurrence of positive and negative transitions in the FLOCK signal can be read (FL/
I Nand FLlON). AFCT can also be cleared by
programming the AFCT bit to logic o.
The AFC has programmable polarity and
transconductance; the latter can be doubled
up to 3 times, depending on the tuning
voltage level if correction-in-band is used.
The direction of tuning is programmable by
using control bits TDIRD (tuning direction
down) and TDIRU (tuning direction up). If a
tuner enters a region in which oscillation
stops, then, providing the prescaler remains
stable, no FDIV signal is supplied to CITAC. In
this situation the system will tune up, moving
away from frequency lock-in. This situation is
avoided by setting TDIRD which causes the
system to tune down. In normal operation
TDIRD must be cleared.
If a tuner stops oscillating and the prescaler
becomes unstable by going into self-oscillation at a very high frequency, the system will

Setting both TDIRD and TDIRU causes the
digital tuning to be interrupted and AFC to be
switched on.
The minimum tuning voltage which can be
generated during digital tuning is programmable by VTMI to prevent the tuner being driven
into an unspecified low tuning voltage region.

Control
For tuner band selection there are four outputs-PIO to Pl3-which are capable of
sourcing up to SOmA at a voltage drop of less
than 600mV with respect to the separate
power supply input VCC2.
For additional digital control, four open-collector 110 ports - P20 to P23 - are provided. Ports P22 and P23 are capable of detecting positive and negative transitions in their
input signals and are connected with the
AFC+ and AFC- inputs, respectively. The
AFC amplifier must be switched off when P22
and/or P23 are used. When AFC is used, P22
and P23 must be programmed HIGH (high
impedance state). With the aid of port P20, up
to three independent module addresses can
be programmed.

Reset
CITAC goes into the power-down reset mode
when VCC1 is below 8.5V (typical). In this
mode all registers are set to a defined state.
Reset can also be programmed.

OPERATION
Write
CITAC is controlled via a bidirectional twowire 12C bus. For programming, a module
address, R/W bit (logic 0), an instruction byte
and a data/control byte are written into CITAC in the format shown in Figure I.

react by tuning down, moving away from
frequency lock-in. To overcome this, the system can be forced to tune up at the lowest
sensitivity (TUS) value, by setting TDIRU.

Tuning Hold
The TUHN bits. are used to decrease the
maximum tuning current and, as a consequence, the minimum charge IT (at
Af = 50kHz) into the tuning amplifier.
During tuning but before lock-in, the highest
current value should be selected.
After lock-in the current may be reduced to
decrease the tuning voltage ripple.
The lowest current value should not be used
for tuning due to the input bias current of the
tuning voltage amplifier (maximum 5nA).
However, it is good practice to program the
lowest current value during tuner band
switching.

Correctlon-In-Band
This control is used to correct the loop gain of
the tuning system to reduce in-band variations due to a non-linear voltage/frequency
characteristic of the tuner. Correction-in-band
(COIB) controls the time T of the charge
equation IT and takes into account the tuning
voltage YTUN to give charge multiplying factors as shown in Table 4.
The transconductance multiplying factor of
the AFC amplifier Is similar when COIB is
used, except for the lowest transconductance
which is not affected.
Tuning Window
Digital tuning is interrupted and FLOCK is set
to logic 1 (in-lock) when the absolute deviation 1At! between the tuner oscillator frequency and the programmed frequency is smaller
than the programmed TUW value (see Table
5). If 1At! Is up to 50kHz above the values
listed in Table 5, it is possible for the system
to be locked depending on the phase relationship between FDIY and the reference
counter.
AFC
When AFCT is set to logic 1 it will not be
cleared and the AFC will remain on as long as
IAII is less than the value programmed for the
AFC hold range AFCR (see Table 6). It is
possible for the AFC to remain on for values
of up to 50kHz more than the programmed
value depending on the phase relationship
between FDIY and the reference counter.
Transconductance
The transconductance (g) of the AFC amplifier Is programmed via the AFC sensitivity bits
AFCS as shown in Table 7.
AFC Polarity
If a positive differential input voltage is applied to the (switched on) AFC amplifier, the
tuning voltage YT1JN falls when the AFC
polarity bit AFCP is at logic 0 (value after
reset). At AFCP - logic 1, YTUN rises.
Minimum Tuning Voltage
Both minimum tuning voltage control bits,
YTMll and YTMIO, are at logic 0 after resel
Further details are given in CHARACTERISTICS.
Frequency Measuring Window
The frequency measuring window which is
programmed must correspond with the division factor of the prescaler in use
(see Table 8).

Tuning Hold
The TUHN bits are used to decrease the
maximum tuning current and, as a consequence, the minimum charge IT (at
ilf = 50kHz) into the tuning amplifier.

The lowest current value should not be used
for tuning due to the input bias current of the

This control is used to correct the loop gain of
the tuning system to reduce in-band variations due to a non-linear voltage/frequency
characteristic of the tuner. Correction-in-band
(COl B) controls the time T of the charge
equation IT and takes into account the tuning

Tuning Sensitivity
To be able to program an optimum loop gain,
the charge IT can be programmed by chang·
ing T using tuning sensitivity (TUS). Table 3
shows the minimum charge IT obtained by
programming the TUS bits at Af = 50kHz;
TUHNO and TUHN1 = logic 1.

Tuning Window
Digital tuning is interrupted and FLOCK is set
to logic 1 (in-lock) when the absolute deviation IAfl between the tuner oscillator frequency and the programmed frequency is smaller
than the programmed TUW value (see Table
5). If IAII is up to 50kHz above the values
listed in Table 5, it is possible for the system
to be locked depending on the phase relationship between FDIV and the reference
counter.
AFC
When AFCT is set to logic 1 it will not be
cleared and the AFC will remain on as long as
IAfl is less than the value programmed for the
AFC hold range AFCR (see Table 6). It is
possible for the AFC to remain on for values
of up to 50kHz more than the programmed
value depending on the phase relationship
between FDIV and the reference counter.
Transconductance
The transconductance (9) of the AFC amplifier is programmed via the AFC sensitivity bits
AFCS as shown in Table 7.

implemented as follows:
P13, P12, P11, P10 - Band select outputs. If
a logic 1 is programmed on any of the POD
bits 0 3 to Do, the relevant output goes High.
All outputs are Low after reset.
P23, P22, P21, P20 - Open-collector 1/0
ports. If a logic 0 is programmed on any of the
POD bits D7 to D4 , the relevant output is
forced LOW. All outputs are at logic 1 after
reset (high impedance state).
DACX - Digital-to-analog converters. The
digital-to-analog converter selected corre-

sponds to the decimal equivalent of the
DACX bits X1, XO. The output voltage of the
selected DAC is set by programming the bits
AX5 to AXO; the lowest output voltage is
programmed with all data AX5 to AXO at logic
0, or after reset has been activated.

Read
Information is read from CITAC when the
R/W bit is set to logic 1. An acknowledge
must be generated by the master after each
data byte to allow transmission to continue. If
no acknowledge is generated by the master,
the slave (CITAC) stops transmitting. The
format of the information bytes is shown in
Figure 4.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION

Prescaler
The integrated prescaler has a divide-by-64
ratio with a maximum input frequency of
1.1 GHz. It will oscillate in the absence of an
input Signal within the frequency range of
800MHz to 1.1GHz.

Tuning
This is performed using frequency-locked loop
digital control. Data corresponding to the required tuner frequency is stored in the 15-bit
frequency buffer. The actual tuner· frequency
(1.1 GHz maximum) is applied to the circuit on
the two complementary inputs VCO+ and
VCO- which drive the integrated prescaler.
The resulting frequency (FDIV) is measured
over a period controlled by a time reference
counter and fed via a gate to a 15-bit frequency counter where it is compared to the contents of the frequency buffer. The result of the
comparison is used to control the tuning
voltage so that the tuner frequency equals the
contents of the frequency buffer multiplied by
50kHz within a programmable tuning window
(TUW).
The system cycles over a period of 2.56ms,
controlled by the time reference counter which
is clocked by an on-chip 4MHz reference
oscillator. Regulation of the tuning voltage is
performed by a charge pump frequencyFebruary 12, 1987

locked loop system. The charge IT flowing into
the tuning voltage amplifier (external capacitance CINT = 0.5/lF) is controlled by the tuning
counter, 3-bit DAC, and the charge pump
circuit. The charge IT is linear with the frequency deviation af in steps of 50kHz. For
loop gain control, the relationship alTI af is
programmable. In the normal mode (control bit
TUHN = logic 1; see Table 2) the minimum
charge IT at af = 50kHz equals 125/lA'/ls
(typ.).
By programming the tuning sensitivity bits
(TUS; see Table 3) the charge IT can be
doubled up to 6 times. From this, the maximum charge IT at af = 50kHz equals
26 X 125/lA'/lS (typ.). The maximum tuning
current I is 440/lA, while T is limited to the
duration of the tuning cycle (2.56ms).
In the tuning-hold mode (TUHN = logic 0) the
tuning current I is reduced, and, as a consequence, the charge into the tuning amplifier is
also reduced. An in-lock situation can be
detected by reading FLOCK. The TDAB400
can be programmed to tune in the digital mode
or the AFC mode by setting AFCF. In the
digital mode (AFCF = logiC 0), the tuning window is programmable through the TUW flag.
When the tuner oscillator frequency is within
the programmable tuning window (TUW),
FLOCK is set to logic 1.

I

UM

Vccs-1.6
Vccs

V

V

In the AFC mode, FLOCK will remain at logic 1
provided the tuner frequency is within a
± 800kHz hold range. Switching from digital
mode to AFC mode is determined by the
microcontroller (AFCF flag). Switching from
AFC mode to digital mode can be determined
by the microcontroller, but if the frequency of
the tuning oscillator does not remain within the
hold range, the system automatically reverts
to digital tuning. Switching back to the AFC
mode will then have to be effected externally
again. The tuning mode can be checked by
reading the AFCT flag.
The occurence of positive and negative transitions in the FLOCK signal can be read by FLI
1Nand FL/ON. The AFC amplifier has programmable transconductance to 2 predefined
values.

Control
For tuner band selection there are four output
ports, PO to P3, which are capable of driving
external PNP transistors (open collector) as
current sources. Output port PO can also be
used as valid address input with an active
level determined by module address bits MAO
and MA1.

Reset
The TDA8400 goes into the power-down reset
mode when VCC1 is below 3V (typ.). In this
mode all registers are set to a defined state.

frequency measurement are processed. During the remaining time, MWN is at logic 0 and
the received frequency is measured.
AFCT - AFCT (tuning mode flag) is set to
logic 1 when the TDA8400 is in AFC mode
and reset to logic 0 when in the digital mode.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The circuit contains an amplifier, a divide-by64 scaler and an output stage. It has been
designed to be driven by a sinusoidal signal
from the local oscillator of a TV tuner, with
frequencies from 70MHz up to 1GHz, for a
supply voltage of 5V ± 10% and an ambient
temperature of a to + 70'C.

December 2, 19B6

The inputs are differential and are internally
biased to permit capacitive coupling. For
asymmetrical drive the unused input should
be connected to ground via a capacitor.

The output differential stage has two complementary outputs. The output voltage edges
are slowed down internally to reduce the
harmonic contents of the signal.

The first divider stage will oscillate in the
absence of an input signal; an input signal
within the specified range will suppress this
oscillation.

Wide, low-impedance ground connections
and a short capacitive bypass from the Vee
pin to ground are recommended.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The circuit contains an amplifier, a divide-by256 scaler and an output stage. It has been
designed to be driven by a sinusoidal signal
from the local oscillator of a TV tuner, with
frequencies from 70MHz up to 1GHz, for a
supply voltage of 5V ± 10% and an ambient
temperature of 0 to 70°C.

December 2, 1986

The inputs are differential and are internally
biased to permit capacitive coupling. For
asymmetrical drive the unused input should
be connected to ground via a capacitor.

The output differential stage has two complementary outputs. The output voltage edges
are slowed down internally to reduce the
harmonic contents of the signal.

The first divider stage will oscillate in the
absence of an input signal; an input signal
within the specified range will suppress this
oscillation.

Wide, low-impedance ground connections
and a short capacitive bypass from the Vee
pin to ground are recommended.

2. em is the simulated maximum allowable input capacitance of the saw-filter, which is 18pF if the capacitance between the leads to Pins 11 -12 is < 4pF.
S. In the application em, L6 and L7 must be replaced by a saw-filter and an inductance across its input which tunes out the total capacitance between the pins if no Ie has been connected.
4. This circuit is mounted on the V-H-U p.b.c. number: 3373.

NOTES:

1. The keyboard inputs (TRX, TRY, TRSL) are not voltage driven (see Application Information Diagram, Figure 5).
If one key is depressed, the circuit generates the corresponding code. The number of keys depressed at a time, and this being recognized by the circuit as an illegal
operation, depends on the supply voltage VDD and the leakage current (between device and printed circuit board) externally applied to the keyboard inputs.
If no leakage is assumed, the circuit recognizes an operation as illegal for any number of keys> 1 depressed at the same time with VOD = 7V. At a leakage due to a
1Mn resistor connected to each keyboard input and returned to either VDD or Vss, the circuit recognizes at least 2 keys depressed at a time with Voo = 7V.
The highest permissible values of the contact series resistance of the keyboard switches is 500!1
2. Inhibit output transistor disabled.
3. ~f is the width of the distribution curve at 20 points (0 = standard deviation).
4. Terminal rvOT is input for manual ON. When applying a LOW level rvor becomes an output carrying a LOW level.

OPERATING PRINCIPLES
The data to be transmitted are arranged as
serial information with a fixed pattern (see
Figure 1), in which the data bit locations Bo to
B4 represent the generated key command
code. To cope with IR (infrared) interferences
of other sources, a selective data transmission is present. Each transmitted bit has a
burst of 26 oscillator periods.
Before any operation will be executed in the
receiver/decoder chip, the transmitted data
must be accepted twice in sequence. This
means the start code must be recognized
each time a data word is applied and comparison must be true between the data bits of
two successively received data words. If both
requirements are met, one group of binary
output buffers will be loaded with a code
defined by the stored data bits, and an
internal operation can also take place (See
operating code table).
The contents of the 3 analog function registers are available on the three outputs in a
pulse code versus time modulation format
after D-to-A (digital-to-analog) conversion.
The proper analog levels can be obtained by
using simple integrated networks. For local
control a second transmitter chip (SAF1039P)
is used (see Figure 4).

TIMING CONSIDERATIONS
The transmitter and receiver operate at different oscillator frequencies. Due to the design
neither frequency is very critical, but correlation between them must exist. Calculation of
these timing requirements shows the following.

NOTES:
1. To = 1 clock period = 128 oscillator periods.
2. fT in kHz.

Figure 1. Pattern for Data to be Transmitted
With a tolerance of ± 10% on the oscillator
frequency (fT) of the transmitter, the receiver
oscillator frequency (fR = 3 X 'T) must be
kept constant with a tolerance of ± 20%.
On the other hand, the data pulse generated
by the pulse stretcher circuit (at the receiver
side) may vary ± 25% in duration.

detected. For a legal key depression, one key
down at a time (one TRX and TRY input
activated), the oscillator starts running and a
data word, as shown above, is generated and
supplied to the output TROT. II none, or more
than 2 inputs are activated at the same time,
the input detection logic of the chip will
generate an overall reset and the oscillator
stops running (no legal key operation).
This means that lor each key-bounce the
logic will be reset, and by releaSing a key the
transmitted data are stopped at once.

OPERATION MODE

The minimum key contact time required is the
duration of two data words. The on-chip
oscillator is frequency-controlled with the external components R1 and C1 (see circuit
Figure 3); the addition of resistor R2 means
that the oscillator frequency is virtually independent of supply voltage variations. A complete data word is arranged as shown in
Figure 1, and has a length of 32 X Toms,
where To = 27 1fT.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF
THE SAF1032P RECEIVER/
DECODER

the start code and compares the stored data
bits with the new data bits accepted.

The logic circuitry of the receiver I decoder
chip is divided into four main parts as shown
in the Block Diagram.

This part stores the program selection code
in the output group (BINF) and memorizes it
for condition HOLD = LOW.

Part I

It puts the functional code to output group
(SELF) during data accept time, and decodes
the internally-used analog commands (ANDEC).

Part II

This part decodes the applied DATA information into logic '1' and '0'. It also recognizes

Part III
This part controls the analog function registers (each 6 bits long), and connects the
contents of the three registers to the analog
outputs by means of 0/A conversion. Ouring
sound mute, output L1OT will be forced to
HIGH level.

Part IV
This part keeps track of correct power 'ON'
operation, and puts chip in 'standby' condition at supply voltage interruptions.
The logic design is dynamic and synchronous
with the clock frequency (OSCI), while the
required control timing signals are derived
from the bit counter (BITC).

Operation
Serial information applied to the OATA input
will be translated into logic '1' and '0' by
means of a time ratio detector.

After recognizing the start code (CSTO) of
the data word, the data bits will be loaded into
the data shift register (SROT). At the first
trailing edge of the following data word, a
comparison (KOM) takes place between the
contents of SROT and the buffer register
(BFR). If SROT equals BFR, the required
operation will be executed under control of
the comparator counter (COMP).
As shown in the operating code table on the
next page, the 4-bit wide binary output buffer
(BINF) will be loaded for BFRO = '0', while for
BFRO = '1' the binary output buffer (SELF),
also 4-bits wide, will be activated during the
data accept time.
At the same time operations involving the
internal commands are executed. The contents of the analog function registers (each 6
bits long) are controlled over 63 steps, with
minimum and maximum detection, while the
0/ A conversion results in a pulsed output

(50% CONTENTS)

signal with a conversion period of 384 clock
periods (see Figure 2).
First power ON will always put the chip in the
standby position. This results in an internal
clearing of all logic circuitry and a 50%
presetting of the contents of the analog
registers (analog base value). The program
selection '1' code will also be prepared and
all the outputs will be nonactive (see operating output code table).
From standby, the chip can be made operational via a program selection command,
generated LOCAL or via REMOTE, or directly
by forcing the TV ON/OFF output (TVOT) to
zero for at least 2 clock periods of the
oscillator frequency.
For POWER-ON RESET, a negative-going
pulse should be applied to input MAIN, when
VDD is stabilized and pulse width
LOW;;'100J-lS.

PIN CONFIGURATION

=

The SAA3004 generates the pattern for
driving the output stage. These patterns
are pulse distance coded. The pulses
are infrared flashes or modulated. The
transmission mode is defined in conjunction with the subsystem address. Modulated pulses allow receivers with narrowband preamplifiers for improved noise
rejection to be used. Flashed pulses
require a wide-band preamplifier within
the receiver.

INPUTS AND OUTPUTS
Key Matrix Inputs and Outputs
(DRVON to DRV6N and SENON
to SEN6i11)
The transmitter keyboard is arranged as a
scanned matrix. The matrix consists of 7
driver outputs and 7 sense inputs as shown in
Figure 1. The driver outputs DRVON to
DRV6N are open-drain N-channel transistors
and they are conductive in the stand-by
mode. The 7 sense inputs (8ENON to
8EN6N) enable the generation of 56 command codes. With 2 external diodes all 64
commands are addressable. The sense inputs have P-channel pull-up transistors, so
that they are HIGH until they are pulled LOW
by connecting them to an output via a key
depression to initiate a code transmission.

Address Mode Input (ADRM)
The subsystem address and the transmission
mode are defined by connecting the ADRM
input to one or more driver outputs (DRVON
to DRV6N) of the key matrix. If more than one
driver is connected to ADRM, they must be
decoupled by a diode. This allows the definiDecember 2, 1986

tion of seven subsystem addresses as shown
in Table 3. If driver DRV6N is connected to
ADRM the data output format of REMO is
modulated or if not connected, flashed.

address 2 by connecting DRV1 N to ADRM. If
now DRV3N is added to ADRM by a key or a
switch, the transmitted subsystem address
changes to 4.

The ADRM input has switched pull-up and
pull-down loads. In the stand-by mode only
the pull-down device is active. Whether
ADRM is open (subsystem address 0, flashed
mode) or connected to the driver outputs, this
input is LOW and will not cause unwanted
dissipation. When the transmitter becomes
active by pressing a key, the pull-down device
is switched off and the pull-up device is
switched on, so that the applied driver signals
are sensed for the decoding of the subsystem
address and the mode of transmission.

A change of the subsystem address will not
start a transmission.

The arrangement of the subsystem address
coding is such that only the driver DRVnN
with the highest number (n) defines the subsystem address, e.g., if driver DRV2N and
DRV4N are connected to ADRM, only
DRVN4N will define the subsystem address.
This option can be used in transmitters for
more than one subsystem address. The
transmitter may be hard-wired for subsystem

5-15

Remote Control Signal Output
(REMO)
The REMO signal output stage is a push-pull
type. In the HIGH state a bipolar emitterfollower allows a high output current. The
timing of the data output format is listed in
Tables 1 and 2.
The information is defined by the distance tb
between the leading edges of the flashed
pulses or the first edge of the modulated
pulses (see Figure 3).
The format of the output data is given in
Figures 2 and 3. In the flashed transmission
mode, the data word starts with two toggle
bits, T1 and TO, followed by three bits for
defining the subsystem address 82, 81 and
80, and six bits F, E, D, C, B and A, which are
defined by the selected key.

In the modulated transmission mode the first
toggle bit, T1, is replaced by a constant
reference time bit (REF). This can be used as
a reference time for the decoding sequence.
The toggle bits function as an indication for
the decoder that the next instruction has to
be considered as a new command.
The codes for the subsystem address and the
selected key are given in Tables 3 and 4.

Oscillator Input/Output (OSCI
and OSCO)
The external components must be connected
to these pins when using an oscillator with a
ceramic resonator. The oscillator frequency
may vary between 400kHz and 500kHz as
defined by the resonator.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
Keyboard Operation

one or more of the sense inputs (SENnN) are
tied to ground. This will start the power-up
sequence. First the oscillator is activated and
after the debounce time tos (see Figure 4) the
output drivers (DRVON to DRV6N) become
active successively.
Within the first scan cycle the transmission
mode, the applied subsystem address and
the selected command code are sensed and
loaded into an internal data latch. In contradiction to the command code the subsystem
address is sensed only within the first scan
cycle. If the applied subsystem address is
changed while the command key is pressed,
the transmitted subsystem address is not
altered.
In a multiple keystroke sequence (see Figure
5), the command code is always altered in
accordance with the sensed key.

Multiple Keystroke Protection

In the standby mode all drivers (DRVON to
DRV6N) are on. Whenever a key is pressed,

at the same time, the circuit will not generate
a new output at REMO (see Figure 5). In case
of a multiple keystroke the scan repetition
rate is increased to detect the release of a
key as soon as possible.
There are two restrictions caused by the
special structure of the keyboard matrix:
• The keys switching to ground (code
numbers 7, 15, 23, 31, 39, 47, 55 and
63) and the keys connected to SEN5N
and SEN6N are not covered completely
by the multiple key protection. If one
sense input is switched to ground,
further keys on the same sense line are
ignored.
• SEN5N and SEN6N are not protected
against multiple keystroke on the same
driver line, because this condition has
been used for the definition of
additional codes (code numbers 56 to
63).

The keyboard is protected against multiple
keystrokes. If more than one key is pressed

The subsystem address and the transmission
modes are defined by connecting the ADRM
input to one or more driver outputs (DRVON
to DRV6N) of the key matrix, If more than one
driver is connected to ADRM, they must be
decoupled by a diode.

Low-Power Remote Control IR
Transmitter and Receiver

LOW-POWER IR TRANSMITTER
SAA3004
The SAA3004 is a new MaS transmitter IC for
infrared remote control systems in which the
received commands are decoded by a microcomputer. It can transmit up to 448 commands, divided into 7 subsystem groups of 64
commands each and is therefore suitable for
single or multi-system use. To allow remote
control systems with a variety of ranges,
noise immunities, and costs to be built, two
operating modes are available: unmodulated
(single pulse per bit) or modulated (burst of 6
pulses per bit). The subsystem address and
mode of operation may be selected by keyboard contacts for multi-system use, or may
be hard-wired for single system use. The
output from the SAA3004 is Pulse Distance
Modulated (PDM) for maximum power economy and the high level of output current
available (40mA with a 6V supply) allows the
IC to drive an IR LED via a very simple
amplifier using a single external transistor.
Compared with earlier IR transmitter ICs, the
SAA3004 operates over a much wider supply
voltage range (4V to 11V), consumes less
current during operation (1 mA typical with a
6V supply), has a lower standby current
( < 2pA), and requires a minimum number of
external components. The low current consumption is largely due to the fairly low
oscillator frequency (455kHz).

Transmission Formats
The formats of the two transmission modes
are shown in Figure 1.
At least one complete 11-bit word is generated for each legal detected keystroke. The
logic state of a bit is defined by the interval
between consecutive output pulses or bursts,
measured from leading edge to leading edge.
The word is repeated as long as a key
remains pressed. When a key is released, the
transmission ceases as soon as the current
word has been transmitted.
In the unmodulated mode, only one pulse per
bit is generated and passed to output pin
REMO. For this mode, the IR preamplifier in
the receiver can be a broadband type and
therefore inexpensive. However, the interference immunity and range of the remote
control will not be as high as that for a
transmitter in the modulated mode in conjunction with a narrow-band IR receiver.

of about 38kHz. Since this frequency lies
between the first and second harmonics of
the TV line frequency, a narrow-band IR
receiver tuned to 38kHz should be used in the
equipment being controlled. Although such a
receiver is more expensive than a broadband
one, the remote control will be less sensitive
to interference and will have a longer range.
However, if these requirements are not stringent, a broadband receiver could also be
used to receive transmissions in the modulated mode.
Remote control systems normally detect a
command continuously from the moment it is
received. To distinguish between multiple
keystrokes and new commands, it is then
necessary to detect the length of the transmitted data words. The disadvantage of this
method is that a repeated command can be
seen as a new one if the data stream is
interrupted by an external influence. In the
SAA3004, this problem is eliminated by incorporating toggle bits in the data stream. The
toggle bits change state after each key release according to the truth table given in
Table 1. The toggle bits therefore inform the
remote control receiver that new data is
arriving so that the microcomputer can easily
distinguish between new data words and
repeated ones. It can also count the number
of identical commands if they are issued more
than once in sequence. This is an important
facility for selection of Teletext pages with
repeated digits, resetting clock/calendars
and programming VCRs.
Figure 1a is a pulse diagram of the output
signal from the SAA3004 in the unmodulated
mode. The data word consists of 2 toggle bits
(T1 and TO), 3 address bits (S2, S1, and SO)
and 6 command bits (F, E, D, C, B, and A).
Toggle Bit T1 provides additional protection
against interference. If the second keystroke
in a sequence of three is disturbed, the
decoding part of the receiver will recognize
the same data twice; the fact that T1 has
changed state will indicate that a new command is being transmitted.
Figure 2 shows the timing of a single bit for
each transmission mode.
A complete message always consists of 12
pulses, the timing of which is directly related
to the oscillator period tose. The pulse timing
data for fose = 455kHz is as follows.

In the modulated mode, each bit is transmitted as a burst of 6 pulses at a repetition rate

The data word format and timing shown in
Figure 1b for the modulated mode of transmission is the same as that previously described
for the unmodulated mode. In this case, however, each bit consists of a 141 /1S burst of 6
pulses, and toggle bit T1 is replaced by a
reference pulse with a permanent logic 1, the
timing of which is (tREF = tBt = 7.6ms). This
allows a lower stability oscillator to be used in
the transmitter because tREF can be used as a
reference for decoding in the equipment being
controlled.

Functional Description of the
SAA3004
A detailed functional block diagram of the
SAA3004 is given in Figure 3 and the key
sequencing diagram is given in Figure 4,
which shows that, during standby, all the drive
outputs are LOW. When a keystroke is detected (one or more sense inputs LOW) by
the sense detector, the sequence control
block enables the oscillator which starts to
generate clock pulses. The oscillator increments the scan counter which, after debouncing time (tOB > 4To) has elapsed, sequentially
activates the drive outputs at intervals of
tose/?2 (158/1s for fose = 455kHz). See Figure 5.
The activated key position is stored in the
data memory together with the subsystem
address (determined by which of the drive
outputs 1 - 5 is connected to ADRM) and the
output mode (whether or not drive output 6 is
connected to ADRM). However, unlike the
command code, the subsystem address is
only sensed during the first scan cycle and
does not cause any output when it is
changed. The stored data, together with the
toggle bits, are applied to the data multiplexer, the serial output from which is converted
into the correct pulse distances by the modulation counter. The pulses are then fed to

In standby, the drive lines are LOW and the
sense lines are HIGH. A scan cycle starts as
soon as one of the sense inputs is forced
LOW by a keystroke. If the keystroke is
detected as being legal (only one key
pressed), the appropriate command is decoded according to the scheme in Table 2,
and the correct data word is fed to output
REMO. Bits ABC in Table 2 indicate which of
the seven driver outputs is activated and bits
DEF indicate which of the seven sense inputs
has detected a LOW level.

output REMO via the output modulator. After
a key is released, the oscillator stops and the
circuits return to the standby state to con·
serve battery power as soon as the output
sequence is completed.
The 5AA3004 has built·in protection against
multiple keystrokes (two or more keys
pressed at a time). In this event, the IC reacts
as shown in Figure 6. At the end of any
current output sequence, output REMO becomes inactive, and the keyboard scanning
interval tw = 121 ms is reduced to tSM (about
20ms). This ensures that a key release is
detected as soon as possible. Also, the
toggle bits remain unchanged during multiple
keystrokes.

Forty-nine of the keys (7 X 7 matrix) are
connected directly between driver lines
DRVON to DRV6N and sense lines 5ENON to
5EN6N. Expanding the keyboard for 64 commands is done in three steps. First, seven
keys are added to switch each of the sense
lines to ground. Next, seven keys are added
to switch each of the drive lines to 5EN5N
and 5EN6N via diodes D, and D2. The final
key is added to switch sense lines 5EN5N
and 5EN6N to ground via diodes D, and D2.

Address mode input ADRM selects the subsystem address and determines the transmission mode (modulated or unmodulated). The
subsystem address and mode of operation
depend on which of the seven drive lines is
connected to ADRM as shown in Table 3.
The address is selected either by closing an
address switch to connect a drive output to
input ADRM before pressing a command key,
or by installing a permanent link between one
of the drive outputs and input ADRM. With no
address selected, the basic address (address
bits 52, 51, and 50 all equal 1) is automatically generated.
Mode selection is made via a link between
drive line DRV6N and input ADRM. The

The output stage of the SAA3004 shown in
Figure 8 provides a current output of up to
40mA with a 6V supply, sufficient to drive a
very Simple single transistor amplifier to provide current for an infrared LED. When the
output stage is driven by a HIGH level, the
NPN transistor conducts and pulls output pin

5-22

REMO HIGH (3V min. with a 6V supply).
When the output stage is driven by a LOW
level, the NPN transistor is turned off and the
n-channel output FET conducts and pulls
output pin REMO LOW (200mV maximum
with a 6V supply). In this state, the output
stage can sink a typical current of 300MA.

Power Consumption
Considerations
The intensity of IR radiation IE, and therefore
the transmitter range, is proportional to the
LED forward current IF. The peak value of IF
in the circuit of Figure 7 is determined by the
value of emitter resistor RE and is given by:

However, since the output is pulsed, the
battery life is mainly determined by the average value of the forward current. This averFebruary 1987

age LED current is the peak current multiplied
by the duty factor of the output signal. The
duty factor is the ratio of the total HIGH time
of a data word (12 pulses each of width
Tp = 8.81'S) to the data word repetition period
(tw = 121 ms).

data word is therefore six times that for the
unmodulated mode so that the duty factor is
multiplied by six.
In the modulated mode, the average LED
current is therefore:

In the unmodulated mode, the average LED
current is:

In the modulated mode, each pulse is a burst
of six 8.811S pulses. The total HIGH time of a

5-24

At first glance, the higher required average
current for the modulated mode makes it
appear unattractive because of increased
battery drain. However, if a narrow-band receiver is used with a modulated transmitter,

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
Combined System Mode
(SSM = LOW)
The X and Z lines are active-HIGH in the
quiescent state. Legal key operation either in
the X-DR or Z-DR matrix starts the debounce
cycle. When the contact is made for two bit
times without interruption, the oscillator enable signal is latched and the key may be
released. Interruption within the two bit times
resets the internal action. At the end of the
debounce time, the DR outputs are switched
off and two scan cycles are started, switching
on the DR-outputs one by one. When a Z or X
input senses a LOW level, a latch enable
signal is fed to the system address or command latches, depending on whether sensing
was found in the Z or X input matrix. After
latching a system address number, the device
will generate the last command (I.e., all command bits '1') in the chosen system as long
as the key is pressed. Latching of a command
number causes the device to generate this
command together with the system address
number stored in the system address latch.
Releasing the key will reset the internal action
if no data is transmitted at that time. Once the
transmission is started, the signal will be
finished completely.

Single System Mode
(SSM HIGH)

=

The X lines are active-HIGH in the quiescent
state; the pull-up transistors of the Z lines are
switched off and the inputs are disabled. Only
legal key operation in the X-DR matrix starts
the debounce cycle. When the contact is
made for two bit times without interruption,
the oscillator enable signal is latched and the
key may be released. Interruption within the
two bit times resets the internal action. At the
end of the debounce time, the pull-up transistors in the X lines are switched off. Those in
the Z lines are switched on during the first
scan cycle. The wired connection in the Z
matrix is then translated into a system address number and stored in the system ad-

dress latch. At the end of the first scan cycle
the pull-up transistors in the Z lines are
switched off and the inputs are disabled
again, while the transistors in the X lines are
switched on. The second scan cycle produces the command number which, after
latching, is transmitted together with the system address number.

transmitted in biphase; definitions of logical
'1' and '0' are given in Figure 3.
The code consists of four parts:
• Start part formed by 2 bits (two times a
logical '1')
• Control part formed by 1 bit
• System part formed by 5 bits

Inputs
The command inputs XO to X7 carry a logical
'1' in the quiescent state by means of an
internal pull-up transistor. When SSM is LOW,
the system inputs ZO to Z3 also carry a logical
'1' in the quiescent state by means of an
internal pull-up transistor.
When SSM is HIGH, the transistors are
switched off and no current flows via the
wired connection in the Z-DR matrix.

Oscillator
The oscillator is formed by a ceramic resonator (cataloq number 2422 540 98021 or
equivalent) feeding the single-pin input OSC.
Direct connection is made for supply voltages
in the range 2 to 5.25V but it is necessary to
fit a 10kn resistor in series with the resonator
when using supply voltages in the range 2.6
to 7V.

Key Release Detection
An extra control bit is added which will be
complemented after key release. In this way
the decoder gets an indication that shows if
the next code is to be considered as a new
command. This is very important for multidigit entry (e.g., by channel numbers or TeletextlViewdata pages). The control bit will only
be complemented after finishing at least one
code transmission. The scan cycles are repeated before every code transmission, so
that, even by 'takeover' of key operation
during the code transmission, the correct
system and command numbers are generated.

• Command part formed by 6 bits.
The output MOATA carries the same information as output DATA but is modulated on a
carrier frequency of 1,t12 the oscillator frequency, so that each bit is presented as a burst of
32 pulses. To reduce power consumption, the
carrier frequency has a 25% duty cycle.
In the quiescent state, both outputs are nonconducting (3-state outputs). The scan drivers ORO to DR7 are of the open-drain Nchannel type and are conducting in the quiescent state of the circuit. After a legal key
operation all the driver outputs go into the
high ohmic state; a scanning procedure is
then started so that the outputs are switched
into the conducting state one after the other.

Reset Action
The circuit will be reset immediately when a
key release occurs during:
• Debounce time
• Between two codes.
When a key release occurs during scanning
of the matrix, a reset action will be accomplished if:
• The key is released while one of the driver
outputs is in the low-ohmic '0' state
• The key is released before detection of that
key
• There is no wired connection in the Z-DR
matrix while SSM is HIGH.

KEY ACTIVITIES

Every connection of one X input and one DR
output is recognized as a legal keyboard
operation and causes the device to generate
the corresponding code.

Msa

j

Activating more than one X input at a time is
an illegal keyboard operation and no circuit
action is taken (oscillator does not start).
When SSM is LOW, every connection of one
Z input and one DR output is recognized as a
legal keyboard operation and causes the
device to generate the corresponding code.
Activating two or more Z inputs, or Z inputs
and X inputs, at one time is an illegal key·
board operation and no circuit action is taken.
When SSM is HIGH, a wired connection must
be made between a Z input and a DR output.
If no connection is made, the code is not
generated.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
Combined System Mode
(SSM = LOW)
The X and Z-lines are active HIGH in the
quiescent state. Legal key operation either in
the X-DR or Z-DR matrix starts the debounce
cycle. When the contact is made for two bit
times without interruption, the oscillator-enable signal is latched and the key may be
December 2, 1986

released. Interruption within the two bit times
resets the internal action. At the end of the
debounce time, the DR-outputs are switched
off and two scan cycles are started, switching
on the DR-outputs one by one. When a Z or
X-input senses a LOW level, a latch-enable
signal is fed to the system address or command latches; depending on whether sensing
was found in the Z or X-input matrix. After
latching a system address number, the device

5-41

will generate the last command (i.e., all command bits '1') in the chosen system as long
as the key is pressed. Latching of a command
number causes the device to generate this
command together with the system address
number stored in the system address latch.
Releasing the key will reset the internal action
if no data is transmitted at that time. Once the
transmission is started, the signal will be
finished completely.

SAA3027

Infrared Remote Control Transmitter (RC-5)

Single System Mode
(SSM = HIGH)
The X-lines are active HIGH in the quiescent
state; the pull-up transistors of the Z-lines are
switched off and the inputs are disabled. Only
legal key operation in the X-DR matrix starts
the debounce cycle. When the contact is
made for two bit times without interruption,
the oscillator-enable signal is latched and the
key may be released. Interruption within the
two bit times resets the internal action. At the
end of the debounce time, the pull-up transistors in the X-lines are switched off; those in
the Z-lines are switched on during the first
scan cycle. The wired connection in the Zmatrix is then translated into a system address number and stored in the system address latch. At the end of the first scan cycle
the pull-up transistors in the Z-lines are
switched off and the inputs are disabled
again, while the transistors in the X-lines are
switched on. The second scan cycle produces the command number which, after
latching, is transmitted together with the system address number.

Inputs
The command inputs XO to X7 carry a logical
'1' in the quiescent state by means of an
internal pull-up transistor. When SSM is LOW,
the system inputs ZO to Z3 also carry a logical
'1' in the quiescent state by means of an
internal pull-up transistor.
When SSM is HIGH, the transistors are
switched off and no current flows via the
wired connection in the Z-DR matrix.

Oscillator
OSCI and OSCO are the input/output, respectively, of a two-pin oscillator. The oscillator is formed externally by one inductor and
two capacitors and operates at 72kHz (typical).

digit entry (e.g. by channel numbers or TeletextlViewdata pages). The control bit will only
be complemented after finishing at least one
code transmission. The scan cycles are repeated before every code transmission, so
that, even by 'take-over' of key operation
during code transmission, the correct system
and command numbers are generated.

Outputs
The output DATA carries the generated information according to the format given in Figure 2 and Tables 1 and 2. The code is
transmitted in biphase; definitions of logical
'1' and '0' are given in Figure 3.
The code consists of four parts:
• Start part formed by 2 bits (two times a
logical '1')
• Control part formed by 1 bit
• System part formed by 5 bits
• Command part formed by 6 bits
The output MDATA carries the same information as output DATA but is modulated on a
carrier frequency of half the oscillator frequency, so that each bit is presented as a
burst of 32 oscillator periods. To reduce
power consumption, the carrier frequency has
a 25% duty cycle.
In the quiescent state, both outputs are nonconducting (3-state outputs). The scan drivers ORO to DR7 are of the open drain Nchannel type and are conducting in the quiescent state of the circuit. After a legal key
operation, a scanning procedure is started so
that they are switched into the conducting
state one after the other.

Reset Action
The circuit will be reset immediately when a
key release occurs during:

Spec~lcatlon

• The key is released while one of the driver
outputs is in the low-ohmic '0' state;
• The key is released before detection of that
key;
• There is no wired connection in the Z-DR
matrix while SSM Is HIGH.

Test Pin
The test pin TP is an input which can be used
for testing purposes.
When LOW, the circuit operates normally.
When HIGH, all pull-up transistors are
switched off, the control bit is set to zero and
the output data is 26 times faster than normal.
When Z2 = Z3 = LOW, the counter will be
reset to zero.

Key Activities
Every connection of one X-input and one DRoutput is recognized as a legal keyboard
operation and causes the device to generate
the corresponding code.
Activaiing more than one X-input at a time is
an illegal keyboard operation and no circuit
action is taken (oscillator does not start).
When SSM is LOW, every connection of one
Z-input and one DR-output is recognized as a
legal keyboard operation and causes the
device to generate the corresponding code.
Activating two or more Z-inputs, or Z-inputs
and X-inputs, at one time is an illegal keyboard operation and no circuit action is taken.
When SSM is HIGH, a wired connection must
be made between a Z-input and a DR-output.
If no connection is made, the code is not
generated.
When one X or Z-input is connected to more
than one DR-output, the last scan signal is
considered legal.

Key-Release Detection

• Debounce time

An extra control bit is added which will be
complemented after key-release. In this way
the decoder gets an indication that shows if
the next code is to be considered as a new
command. This is very important for multi-

• Between two codes

The maximum allowable value of the contact
series resistance of the keyboard switches is

When a key release occurs during scanning
of the matrix, a reset action will be accomplished if:

Z2 or Z3 must be connected to VDD to avoid
unwanted supply cu"ent.

DESCRIPTION

FEATURES

The SAA302B is intended for use in
general purpose (RC-5) remote control
systems. The main function of this integrated circuit is to convert RC-5 biphase
coded signals into equivalent binary values. Two input circuits are available: one
for RC-5 coded signals only; the other
selectable to accept RC-5 coded signals
only, or RC-5 (extended) coded signals
only. The input used is that at which an
active code is first detected. Coded
signals not in RC-5/RC-5(ext) format are
rejected. Data input and output is by
serial transfer, the output interface being
compatible for 12 C bus operation.

• Converts RC-5 or RC-5(ext)
biphase coded signals into binary
equivalents
• Two data inputs:
one fixed (RC-5); one selectable
(RC-5/RC-5(ext»
• Rejects all codes not in RC-5/
RC-5(elCt) format
.. 12 C output interface capability
o Power-off facility
o Master/slave addressable for
multi-transmitter/receiver
applications in RC-5(ext) mode
.. Power-on reset for defined startup

DATA 2: This input performs according to
the logic state of the select input
RC5. When RC5 = HIGH, DATA 2
input will accept only RC-5 coded
signals. When RC5 = LOW, DATA
2 input will accept only RC-5(ext)
coded signals.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
Input Function
The two data inputs are accepted into the
buffer as follows:
DATA 1: Only biphase coded signals
which conform to the RC-5 format
are accepted at this input.

The input detector selects the input, DATA 1
or DATA 2, in which a HIGH-to-LOW transi-

tion is first detected. The selected input is
then accepted by the buffer for code conversion. All signals received that are not in the
RC-5 or RC-5(ext) format are rejected.
Formats of RC-5 and RC-5(ext) biphase coded signals are shown in Figures 1 and 2,
respectively; the codes commence from the
left of the formats shown. The bit-times of the
biphase codes are defined in Figure 3.

The information assembled in the buffer is subjected to the following controls before
being made available at the 12 C interface:
ENB = HIGH

Enables the set standby input SSB.

SSB = LOW

Causes power-off output PO to go HIGH.

PO= HIGH

This occurs when the set standby input SSB = LOW and allows the
existing values in the buffer to be overwritten by the new binary equivalent values. After ENB = LOW, SSB is don't care.

PO= LOW

This occurs according to the type of code being processed, as follows:
RC-5: When the binary equivalent value is transferred to the buffer.
RC-5(ext): When the reset standby bit is active and the master address
bits are equal in value to the MAO, MA 1, MA2 inputs.
At power-on, PO is reset to LOW.

DAV = HIGH

This occurs when the buffer contents ari valid. If the buffer is not
empty, or an output transfer is taking place, then the new binary values
are discarded.

Output Function
The data is assembled in the buffer in the
format shown in Figure 4 for RC-5 binary
equivalent values, or in the format shown in
Figure 5 for RC-5(ext) binary equivalent values. The data is output serially, starting from
the left of the formats shown in Figures 4 and
5.

The 12C interface allows transmission on a

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
General
The circuit operates from a 5V supply and has
a current consumption of 2mA. The output is
a current source which can drive or suppress
current of > 75/lA with a voltage swing of
4.5V. The Q-killer circuit eliminates distortion
of the output pulses due to the decay of the
tuned input circuit at high input voltages. The
input circuit is protected against signals of
> 600mV by an input limiter. The typical input
is an AM signal at a frequency of 36kHz.
Figures 2 and 3 show the circuit diagrams for
the application of narrow-band and wide-band
receivers, respectively. Circuit description of
the eight sections shown in the Siock Diagram are given below.

Controlled HF Amplifier
The input signal is amplified by the gaincontrolled amplifier. This circuit comprises
three DC amplifier stages connected in cascade. The overall gain of the circuit is approximately 83dS and the gain control range is in
the order of 6SdS. Gain control is initially
active in the second amplifier stage and is
transferred to the first stage as limiting in the
second stage occurs, thus maintaining optimum signal-to-noise ratio. Offset voltages in
the DC coupled amplifier are minimized by
two negative feedback loops. These also
allow the circuit to have some series resis-

tance of the decoupling capacitor. The output
Signal of the amplifier is applied to the reference amplifier and to the synchronous demodulator inputs.

Reference Amplifier
The reference amplifier amplifies and limits
the input signal. The voltage gain is approximately OdS. The output signal of this amplifier
is applied to the synchronous demodulator.

Synchronous Demodulator
In the synchronous demodulator, the input
signal and reference signal are multiplied.
The demodulator output current is 25/lA
peak-to-peak. The output signal of the demodulator is fed to the input of the AGC
detector and to the input of the pulse-shaper
circuil.

AGC Detector
The AGC detector comprises two NPN transistors operating as a differential pair. The top
level of the output signal from the synchronous demodulator is detected by the AGC
circuit. Noise pulses are integrated by an
internal capacitor. The output signal is amplified and applied to the first and second
stages of the amplifier and to the Q-factor
killer circuil.

Pulse-Shaper
The pulse-shaper comprises two NPN transistors operating as a differential pair con-

nected in parallel with the AGC differential
pair. The slicing level of the pulse shaper is
lower than the slicing level of the AGC
detector. The output of the pulse-shaper is
determined by the voltage of the capacitor
connected to Pin 11 which is applied directly
to the output buffer.

Output Buffer
The voltage of the pulse-shaper capacitor is
fed to the base of the first transistor of a
differential pair. To obtain a correct RC-5
code, a hysteresis circuit protects the output
against spikes. The output at Pin 9 is active
HIGH.

Q-factor Killer
Figure 2 shows the Q-factor killer in the
narrow-band application. In this application it
is necessary to decrease the Q-factor of the
input selectivity particularly when large input
signals occur at Pins 2 and 15. In the narrowband application the output of the Q-factor
killer can be directly coupled to the input; Pin
3 to Pin 2, and Pin 14 to Pin 15.

Input Limiter
In the narrow-band application, high voltage
peaks can occur on the input of the selectivity
circuit. The input limiter limits these voltage
peaks to approximately 0.7V. Limiting is 0.9V
maximum at 11 = 3mA.

INTRODUCTION

• Less periphery and no adjustment
points
• Total spread on pulse widening < 10%
by a standard RC·5 signal.

As a successor of the current integrated
circuits TCA440 and NE555 for receiving
infrared remote-controlled signals, a new integrated circuit has been developed.

Besides, the IC is also suitable to be used in a
RC-5 extended receiver and in a wide band
receiver.

Author: A.J.E. Bretveld

In comparison with the TCA440-NE555 combination, this IC is aimed to have a higher
replacement value and improved performance. The TDA3048 is equal to the
TDA3047 except for the polarity of the output
signal.

A standard bipolar process with single layer
interconnect and without collector wall has
been used.
Due to the low currents, a collector wall is not
necessary.

• A higher replacement value
• A considerable saving of the current

INTRODUCTION
The monolithic integrated bipolar circuits
TDA3047 and TDA304B are amplifiers intended for use in infrared remote control systems.
Both circuits are excellent and applicable as
narrow-band amplifiers, especially for those
types of remote control concepts which use
the modulated transmission technique. Under
certain conditions both ICs are also applicable as broadband amplifiers. The only difference between the ICs is polarity of the output
signal. This type of IR amplifier offers the
following advantages:
• Low power consumption, typically
10.5mV
• Gain-controlled amplijication, control
range 6edB
• High amplification factor,
ensures a long range

> BOdB,

• Great stability in signal handling
• Demodulation via a synchronous
demodulator
• Automatic limitation of large input
Signals, 600mV
• Independenl of large input amplitude
variations with a Q-killer
• Applicable as narrow-or broadband
amplifier

This circuit proves to be a reliable device with
regard to interference from other IR sources
such as light bulbs, etc.
The automatic gain control (AGC) ensures
very good stability in amplification of large or
low input signals, which correspond to short
or long distances from transmitter to receiver.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The functional block diagram is shown in
Figure 1. The input signal is applied to the
gain-controlled multi:stage differential preamplifier, capacitively-coupled via C2 and Ca.
The capacitors C4 and C5 stabilize the differential preamplifier. Hereafter the signal is fed
to a synchronous demodulator and the reference amplifier, which limits the input signal.
After multiplication of the input and reference
signal by the demodulator, the signal is applied to a pulse-shaper, whose time constant
is controlled by Ca. The same signal is also
used for the feedback loop, resulting in an
automatic gain control defined by the amplitude of the input signal. The AGC acquisition
time is set by C7. The Q-killer limits the
amplification of the tuned input circuit in
conjunction with input amplitude. In this way
the behavior of this device on large amplitude

variations ensures a great stability in the
signal handling. A maximum input limitation is
achieved via the amplitude limiter, typically
activated by a 600mV input signal.
The differential preamplifier has, in principle,
two stages, as shown in Figure 2. Each stage
is stabilized via an external feedback capacitor. Both define the lower boundary of the
frequency, with the greatest influence from C4
because stage 1 has the highest gain. Both
capacitors should be specified so that interference from low frequencies is suppressed.
For instance, bulbs radiate infrared frequencies at (n)(100Hz).
The highest boundary in frequency of this
amplifier is greater than 1MHz and is given by
the internal capacitance of this device.

IR AMPLIFIER
For remote control systems two different
types of amplifiers are available. Both are
described in the following sections.

Narrow-Band Amplifier
The diagram of Figure 3 shows the
TDA3047148 in such an application. Pin 15,
one of the differential inputs, is grounded for

The greatest sensitivity is realized with a
narrow-band amplifier, whose tuned input circuit is selected for this ground wave frequency.
In the unmodulated transmission mode, the
single output pulse represents a continuous
frequency spectrum, in which the generated
IR power is divided. A broadband amplifier is
then required.

Broadband Amplifier
The application as broadband amplifier is
shown in Figure 5. The IR receiving diode is
now positioned between both differential inputs, while the series resistors of 12kn are
the work resistors. The Q killer and Amplitude
Limiter do not have any function here and are
not used. Also the resonance frequency, fo,
of the tuned demodulator circuit equals the
modulation frequency of the remote transmitter.
The charge current to capacHor Ca is equal to
IlVcs
Ics= (Cs)Tt
where Ilt is the charge time and Il VCs is the
voltage increment. ICa is generated by an
internal current source.
The voltage increment at Cs is proportional to
Ilt, with ICs constant and expressed as

signal must be large enough that VCs exceeds the threshold voltage of the pulseshapero

A 2.2nF capacitor in the SAA3004 remote
control system is an optimum one.

February 19B7

The SAA3004, used in unmodulated mode,
has a pulse width of B.BIlS. Cs must have a
low value so that the threshold voltage of the
pulse-shaper is exceeded. On the other hand,
if Cs becomes too small, interference pulses
will easily trigger the pulse-shaper. The selection of Cs is a compromise between the
sensitivHy of the amplifier and the immunity
against interference. Such a compromise is a
2.2nF capacitor for the unmodulated mode of
the SAA3004, including the tolerances of the
internal current sources. Given the technology, small tolerances are not possible.
Correct operation can not be guaranteed for
the combination of a small pulse width (B.BIlS)
and a low source current. However, practical
tests did show that correct operation of the
SAA3004, in the unmodulated mode In combination with this type of preamplifier, can be
realized.

CONSIDERATIONS FOR
AMPLIFIER SELECTION
The narrow- or broadband application is defined by the following points:
• Modulation mode of the transmitter
• Requirements for the reach in distance
• Reliability (insensitivity to interference)
• Price-attractive total remote control
system
Either modulated or unmodulated data transmission is possible with the SAA3004.
In the unmodulated mode, the logic representation of the data word is defined by the time
intervals between the generated output pul-

5-64

The greatest range, with constant-current
through the IR transmission diode(s), will be
obtained with a narrow-band amplifier, because the signal-to-noise ratio is the largest
value.
When IR interference is absent, the combination of modulated transmission mode and the
narrow-band amplifier is the most preferable.
With lower requirements for the reliability,
less range, etc., the broadband amplifier is
the most effective solution for both types of
modulation modes.

RANGE
To give some idea what range can be expected, a number of measurements are made
with the remote transmitters SAA3004.

With Various IR Output Powers
Transmitter SAA3004 drives 1 IR-transmitting
diode with a peak current IC~2A. In the
modulated mode, the power product per bit
equals
(m) (IF) (n) (tp)
where m = number of diodes, n = number of
pulses per bit, and tp = pulse width.
The power product for each bit is:
• Modulated mode (m) (IF) (n) (tp) = (1)
(2) (6) (B.B) = lOellA/sec
• Unmodulated mode (m) (IF) (n) (tp) = (1)
(2) (1) (B.B) = lBIlA/sec
This power product is proportional to the
generated IR power. Table 1 indicates the
results of the measurements. Optic lenses
will increase the distances about 10%.

With Equal Output Power
These measurements are done with one
tranSrTlitting diode for each transmitter type

Results of the Measurements
The results of the measurements can be
summarized as follows:

February 1987

c.

In comparison with older types of preamplifiers, the power consumption is enormously
reduced. For instance, the TDB2033 consumed 204mW at 12V supply, while the
TDA3047/48 only takes 10mW at 5V supply,
which is very useful for "standby" mode. A
second advantage is the 5V supply which can
also be used by the decoding microcomputer.

and the power product/bit constant at
18).lA/sec. Table 2 is comprised of the results
from these measurements.

POWER DISSIPATION

Only the combinations "modulated and
narrow-band amplifier" are reasonable.
With the peak current IF through one IRtransmitting diode, the range with one IR
diode is limited.
A maximum range is obtained using the
modulated mode of data transmitting, but

5-65

In Table 3, the different combinations are
given for remote control systems operating in
the modulated or un modulated mode.

OUTPUT SIGNAL
As indicated in the introduction, the TDA3047
has an active-high output signal, while an
active-low output is generated by the
TDA3048. This choice in polarity is made
available for maximum cooperation with the
decoding part. II, for example, an 8048 microcomputer is used on interrupt level, with
active-low at input INT, the TDA3048 is then
the correct amplifier. II the INT input is activeHigh, the TDA3047 outputs the proper high
level.

PC BOARD DESIGN
Special attention must be given to the placement of Cs. The greatest distance must be
realized between the position of this capacitor
and the inputs 2 and/or 15. Ground connections and screening must also be done with
great accuracy.

DESCRIPTION

FEATURES

The integration into a single package of
all small-signal functions (except the
tuner) required for color TV reception is
achieved in the TDA4501. The only additional circuits needed to complete the
receiver are a tuner, the deflection output stages, and a color decoder. The
TDA3563 or 67, NTSC color decoder,
and TDA3653, vertical output, are ideal
complements for the TDA4501.

• Vision IF amplifier with
synchronous demodulator
• AGC detector for negative
modulation
• AGC output to tuner
• AFC circuit
• Video and audio preamplifiers
• Sound IF amplifier and
demodulator
• Choice of sound volume control
or horizontal oscillator starting
function
• Horizontal synchronization circuit
with two control loops
• Triggered divider system for
vertical synchronization and
sawtooth generation giving
automatic amplitude adjustment
for 50 or 60Hz vertical signal
• Transmitter identification circuit
with mute output
• Sandcastle pulse generator

The IC includes a vision IF amplifier with
synchronous demodulator and AFC circuit, an AGC detector with tuner output,
an integral three-level sandcastle pulse
generator, and fully synchronized vertical and horizontal drive outputs. A triggered vertical divider automatically
adapts to a 50 or 60Hz vertical signal
and eliminates the need for an external
vertical frequency control.
Signal strength-dependent, time constant switches in the horizontal phase
detector make external VCR switching
unnecessary.

Small-Signal Subsystem IC for Color TV

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
IF Amplifier, Demodulator, and
AFC
The IF amplifier has a symmetrical input (Pins
8 and 9), the input impedance of which is
suitable for SAW filtering to be used. The
synchronous demodulator and the AFC circuit
share an external reference tuned circuit
(Pins 20 and 21). An internal RC network
provides the necessary phase-shifting for
AFC operation. The AFC circuit provides a
control voltage output with a swing greater
than 9V from Pin 18.

AGC Circuit
Gating of the AGC detector is performed to
reduce sensitivity of the IF amplifier to external electrical noise. The AGC time constant is
provided by an RC circuit connected to Pin
19. Tuner AGC voltage is supplied from Pin 5
and is suitable for tuners with PNP or NPN RF
stages. The sense of the AGC (to increase in
a positive or negative direction) and the point
of tuner take-over are preset by the voltage
level at Pin 1.

Video Amplifier
The signal through the video amplifier comprises video and sound information; therefore, no gating of the video amplifier is
performed during flyback periods.

December 2, 1986

TDA4501

Sound Circuit and Horizontal
Oscillator Starting Function

the system works in the 60Hz mode; otherwise, 50Hz working is chosen.

The input to the sound IF amplifier is obtained
by a bandpass filter coupling from the video
output (Pin 17). The sound is demodulated
and passed via a dual-function volurne control stage to the audio output amplifier. The
volume control function is obtained by connecting a variable resistor (10kn) between
Pin 11 and ground, or by supplying Pin 11 with
a variable voltage. Sound output is suppressed by an internal mute signal when no
input signal is present.

A narrow window is opened when 15 approved sync pulses have been detected.
Divider ratio between 522 and 528 switches
to 60Hz mode; between 622 and 628
switches to 50Hz mode.

The horizontal oscillator starting function is
obtained by supplying Pin 11 with a current of
6mA during the switching-on period. The IC
then uses this current to generate drive
pulses for the horizontal deflection. For this
application, the main supply voltage for the IC
can be obtained from the horizontal deflection circuit.

Vertical Divider System
A triggered divider system is used to synchronize the vertical drive waveforms, adjusting
automatically to 50 or 60Hz working. A large
window (search window) is opened between
counts of 488 and 722; when a separated
vertical sync pulse occurs before count 576,

6-9

The vertical blanking pulse is also generated
via the divider system by adding the antitopflutter pulse and the blanking pulse.

Line Phase Detector
The circuit has three operating conditions:
a. Strong input signal and synchronized.
b. Weak signal and synchronized.
c. Non-synchronized (weak and strong) signal.
The input signal condition is obtained from
the AGC circuit.

DC Volume Control/Horizontal
Oscillator Start
The operation depends on the application.
When during switch-on no current is supplied,
Pin 11 will act as volume control. When a
current of 6mA is applied, the volume control
is set to maximum and the circuit will generate drive pulses for the horizontal deflection.

Reference tuned circuit Q-factor = 16; audio frequency = 1kHz; carrier frequency = 5.5 MHz.
The demodulator tuned circuit must be tuned for minimum distortion; output Signal Is measured at Ll.f -7.5kHz; other measurements are at
Ll.f = 27.5kHz.
Volume control can be realized by a variable resistor (5kn) connected between Pin 11 and ground, or by a variable voltage direct to Pin 11 (the
low value of input impedanca to Pin 11 must be taken into account).
The sync separator Is nOise-gated; the slicing level is referred to the top sync level and is independent of the video signal. The value stated Is a
percentage of the sync pulse amplitude, the level being dependent on external resistors connected to Pin 26.
The phase detector current is increased by a factor of seven during catching and when the phase detector is switched to 'fast' via Pin 28, thus
ensuring a wide catching range and a high dynamic loop gain.
The negative gOing edge initiates switching·off of the line output transistor (simultaneous driver).
The circuit requires an Integrated flyback pulse. Gate pulses for AGC and coincidence detectors are obtained from the sawtooth waveform.
The functions of in·sync, out-of·sync, and transmitter Identification are combined on Pin 28. For the recaption of VCR signals, V2S must be fixed
between 3V and 4.5V so that the time constant is fast and sound information is presarved.

TDA4503

Small-Signal Subsystem for Monochrome N

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION

Video Amplifier

IF Amplifier, Demodulator, and
AFC

The video signal output from Pin 17 has a
peak-to-peak value of 3V (top sync level = 1.5V) and carries negative-going sync. In
order to retain sound information at Pin 17,
the video signal is not blanked during flyback
periods.

The IF amplifier operates with symmetrical
inputs at Pins Band 9 and has an input
impedance suitable for SAW filter application.
The amplifier sensitivity gives a peak-to-peak
output voltage of 3V for an RMS input of
701lV. The demodulator and the AFC circuit
share an external reference tuned circuit
(Pins 20 and 21) and an internal RC network
provides the phase-shifting necessary for
AFC operation. The AFC circuit provides a
control voltage output with a (typical) swing of
9V from Pin 16 (Vcc = 10.5V).

AGC Circuit
Gating of the AGC detector is performed to
reduce sensitivity of the IF amplifier to external electrical noise. The AGC time constant is
provided by an RC network connected to Pin
24. The typical gain control range of the IF
amplifier is 60dS. Tuner AGC voltage is
supplied from Pin 6 and is suitable for tuners
with PNP or NPN RF stages. The sense of
the AGC (to increase in a positive or negative
direction) and the point of tuner takeover are
preset by the voltage level at Pin 4 (V 4 = 3.5V
(typ.) for positive AGC; V4 = BV (typ.) for
negative AGC).

March 2, 19B7

Sound Circuit
The sound IF signal present at the video
output (Pin 17) is coupled to the sound circuit
by a bandpass filter to Pin 15. The sound
circuit has an amplifier-limiter stage, a synchronous demodulator with reference tuned
circuit at Pin 13, a volume control stage, and
an output amplifier. The volume control has a
range of approximately BOdS and the audio
output signal at maximum volume and with
Llof = 7.5kHz is 320mV (RMS value). The
sound output signal is suppressed when no
input signal is detected.

Synchronization Circuits
The sync separator sliCing level is determined
by an external resistor network at Pin 26. The
slicing level is referred to the top sync level
and the recommended value for slicing is
30%. Internal protection from electrical noise
is included.
A gated phase detector compares the phase
of the separated sync pulses with a sawtooth
waveform obtained from the flyback pulse at

6-21

Pin 5. In sync and out-of-sync conditions are
detected by the coincidence detector at Pin
2B (this circuit also gives transmitter identification). During the out-of-sync condition, gating of the phase detector is switched off and
the output current from the phase detector
increases to give the detector a short timeconstant and thus a fast response. This
condition can be imposed by clamping the
voltage at Pin 2B to 3.5V for the reception of
VCR signals.
The horizontal oscillator frequency is controlled by the output voltage of the phase
detector circuit. The horizontal drive output
from Pin 27 has a duty factor of 40%.
Vertical sync pulses are separated by an
internal integrating network and are used to
trigger the vertical oscillator. A comparator
circuit compares the vertical sawtooth waveform, generated by the vertical oscillator, with
feedback from the deflection coils, and
supplies the drive voltage for the output stage
at Pin 2.

Power Supplies
The main supply is to Pin 7 (positive supply)
and Pin 10 (ground). The horizontal oscillator
is supplied from Pin 22 to facilitate starting of
the oscillator from a high-voltage rail. A special ground connection at Pin 19 is used by
critical voltage dividers in the feedback loops
of the vision and sound IF circuits.

Pin 11 has a double function. When during switch-on a current of 6mA is supplied to this pin, this current is used to start the horizontal oscillator. The main supply can then be obtained from the horizontal deflection stage. When no current is supplied to this pin it can be used as volume control. The indicated maximum value is the current at which all IGs will start. Higher currents are allowed: the excess current is bypassed to ground. 2. Signal with negative-going sync top white 10% of the top sync amplitude (Figure 2). 3. Measured according to the test line given in Figure 3. - The differential gain is expressed as a percentage of the difference in peak amplitudes between the largest and smallest value relative to the subcarrier amplitude at blanking level. - The differential phase is defined as the difference in degrees between the largest and smallest phase angle. 4. This figure is valid for the complete video signal amplitude (peak white to black). 5. The SIN = 20 log VOUT BLACK-TO-WHITE VN(AMSI at B = 5MHz 6. The AFC control voltage IS obtained by multiplying the IF-output signal (which is also used to drive the synchronous demodulator) with a reference carrier. This reference carrier is obtained from the demodulator tuned circuit via a 90° phase shift network. The IF-output signal has an asymmetrical frequency spectrum with respect to the carrier frequency. To avoid problems due to this asymmetrical signal, the AFC circuit is gated by means of an internally generated gating pulse. As a result the detector is operative only during black level at a constant carrier amplitude which contains no additional side bands. As a result the AFC output voltage contains no video infonnalion. At very weak input signals, the driver signal for the AFC circuit will contain a lot of noise. This noise signal has again an asymmetrical frequency spectrum and this will cause an offset of the AFC output voltage. To avoid problems due to this effect, the AFC is switched off when the AGC is controlled to maximum gain. The measured figures are obtained at an input sign RMS voltage of 10mV and the AFC output loaded with 2 times 220kU between +Vs and ground. The unloaded a-factor of the reference tuned circuit is 70. The AFC is switched off when no signal is detected by the coincidence detector or when the voltage at Pin 22 is between 1.2V and 6AV. This can be realized by a resistor of 68kU connected between Pin 22 and ground. 7. The slicing level can be varied by changing the value of R17 -25. A higher resistor value results in a larger value of the minimum sync pulse amplitude. The slicing level is independent of the video information. 8. Frequency control is obtained by supplying a correction current to the oscillator RC-network via a resistor, connected between the phase 1 detector output and the oscillator network. The oscillator can be adjusted to the right frequency in one of the two following ways: a) Interrupt R23 - 24. b) Short circuit the sync separator bias network (Pin 25) to + Vcc. To avoid the need of a VCR switch, the time constant of phase detector at strong input signal is sufficient short to get a stable picture during VCR playback. During the vertical retrace period, the time constant is even shorter so that the head errors of the VCR are compensated at the beginning of the scan. Only at weak signal conditions (information derived from the AGe circuit) is the time constant increased to obtain a good noise immunity. 9. The flyback input and sandcastle output have been combined on one pin. The flyback pulse is clamped to a level of 4.5V. The minimum current to drive the second control loop is 0.1 rnA. 10. The functions in-sync/out-of-sync and transmitter identification have been combined on this pin. The capaCitor is charged during the sync pulse and discharged during the time difference between gating and sync pulse. 11. The vertical scan is synchronized by means of a divider system. Therefore no adjustment is required for the ramp generator. The divider detects whether the incoming signal has a vertical frequency of 50 or 60Hz and corrects the vertical amplitude. 1.2. To avoid screenburn due to a collapse of the vertical deflection, a continuous blanking level is inserted into the sandcastle pulse when the feedback voltage of the vertical deflection is not within the specified limits. 13. Starting point tuner takeover at 1 = 0.2mA. Takeover to be adjusted with a potentiometer of 47kU. February 1967 6-30 Preliminary Specification Signetics Linear Products Small-Signal Subsystem IC for Color TV FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION IF Amplifier, Demodulator, and AFC The IF amplifier has a symmetrical input (Pins 8 and 9). The synchronous demodulator and the AFC circuit share an external reference tuned circuit (Pins 20 and 21). An internal RCnetwork provides the necessary phase-shifting for AFC operation. The AFC circuit is gated by means of an internally generated gating pulse. As a result, the AFC output voltage contains no video information. The AFC circuit provides a control voltage output with a swing greater than 10V from Pin 18. respect to the sync pulse. That can only be realized when a second loop is used. The windows are activated via an up/down counter. Horizontal Phase Detector The counter increases its counter value with 1 for each time the separated vertical sync. pulse is within the search window. When it is not, the counter value is lowered with 1. The circuit has the following operating conditions: a. AGC Circuit Gating of the AGC detector is performed to reduce sensitivity of the IF amplifier to external electrical noise. The AGC time constant is provided by an RC circuit connected to Pin 19. The point of tuner take-over is preset by the voltage level at Pin 1. DC Volume Control/Horizontal Oscillator Start The circuit can be used with a DC volume control or with a starting possibility of the horizontal oscillator. The operation depends on the application. When during switch-on no current is supplied to Pin 11, this pin will act as volume control. When a current of SmA is supplied to Pin 11, the volume control is set to a fixed output signal and the IC will generate drive pulses for the horizontal deflection. The main supply of the IC can then be derived from the horizontal deflection. Horizontal Synchronization The video input signal (positive video) is connected to Pin 25. The horizontal synchronization has two controlloops. This has been introduced because a sandcastle pulse had to be generated. An accurate timing of the burstkey pulse can be made in an easy way when the oscillator sawtooth is used. Therefore, the phase of this sawtooth must have a fixed relation with February 1987 The different working modes of the divider system are specified below. a. Large (search) window: divider ratio between 488 and 722. This mode is valid for the following conditions: 1. Divider is locking for a new transmitter. 2. Divider ratio found, not within the narrow window limits. Weak signal. In this condition the time constant is doubled compared with the previous condition. Furthermore, the phase detector is gated when the oscillator is synchronized. This ensures a stable display which is not disturbed by the noise in the video signal. 3. Non-standard TV signal condition detected while a double or enlarged vertical sync pulse is still found after the internallygenerated anti-topflutter pulse has ended. This means a vertical sync pulse width larger than 10 clock pulses (50Hz) viz. 12 clock pulses (60Hz). c. Not synchronized (weak signal). In this condition the time constant during scan and vertical retrace are the same as during scan in condition a. In general this mode is activated for video tape recorders operating in the feature trick mode. When the wide vertical sync. pulses are detected, the vertical ramp generator is decoupled from the horizontal oscillator. As a consequence, the retrace time of this ramp generator is now determined by the external capacitor and the discharge current. This decoupling prevents instability of the picture due to irregular incoming signals (variable number of lines per field). Video Amplifier The input to the sound IF amplifier is obtained by a band-pass filter coupling from the video output (Pin 17). The sound is demodulated and passed via a dual-function volume control stage to the audio output amplifier. The volume control function is obtained by connecting a variable resistor (5kfl) between Pin 11 and ground, or by supplying Pin 11 with a variable voltage. Sound output is suppressed by an internal mute signal when no TV signal is identified. Strong input signal, synchronized or not synchronized. (The input signal condition is obtained from the AGC-circuit, the insync/out-of-sync from the coincidence detector). In this condition the time constant is optimal for VCR playback; i.e., fast time constant during the vertical retrace (to be able to correct head-errors of the VCR) and such a time constant during scan that fluctuations of the sync are corrected. In this condition the phase detector is not gated. b. The signal through the video amplifier comprises video and sound information. Sound Circuit and Horizontal Oscillator Starting Function TDA4505 Vertical Sync Pulse The vertical sync pulse integrator will not be disturbed when the vertical sync pulses have a width of only 10,"s with a separation of 22,"s. This type of vertical sync pulses are generated by certain video tapes with anticopy guard. Vertical Ramp Generator To avoid problems during VCR-playback in the so-called feature modes (fast or slow), the vertical ramp generator is not coupled to the horizontal oscillator when such signals are received. For normal signals the coupling between vertical ramp generator and horizontal oscillator is maintained. This ensures a reliable interface. Vertical Divider System The IC embodies a synchronized divider system for generating the vertical sawtooth at Pin 2. The divider system has an internal frequency doubling circuit, so the horizontal oscillator is working at its normal line frequency; one line period equals 2 clock pulses. Due to the divider system no vertical frequency adjustment is needed. The divider has a discriminator window for automatically switching over from the 60Hz to 50Hz system. When the trigger pulse comes before line 576 the system works in the 60Hz mode, otherwise 50Hz mode is chosen. The divider system operates with 2 different divider reset windows for maximum interference/disturbance protection. 6-31 4. Up/down counter value of the divider system operating in the narrow window mode drops below count S. b. Narrow window: divider ratio between 522 - 528 (60Hz) or 622 - 628 (50Hz). The divider system switches over to this mode when the up/ down counter has reached its maximum value of 15 approved vertical sync pulses. When the divider operates in this mode and a vertical sync pulse is missing within the window, the divider is reset at the end of the window and the counter value is lowered with 1. At a counter value below 6, the divider system switches over the large window mode. The divider system also generates the so-called anti-topflutter pulse which inhibits the phase 1 detector during the vertical sync pulse. The width of this pulse depends on the divider mode. For the divider mode a the start is generated at the reset of the divider. In mode b the anti-topflutter pulse starts at the beginning of the first equalizing pulse. The anti-topflutter pulse ends at count 10 for 50Hz and count 12 for 60Hz. The vertical II Signetics Linear Products Preliminary Specification TDA4505 Small-Signal Subsystem IC for Color TV blanking pulse is also generated via the divider system. The start is at the reset of the divider while the blanking pulse width is 34 (17 lines) for 60Hz and at count 42 (21 lines) for 50Hz systems. The vertical blanking pulse generated at the sandcastle output Pin 27 is made by adding the anti-topflutter pulse and the blanking pulse. In this way the vertical blanking pulse starts at the beginning of the first equalizing pulse when the divider operates in the b mode. The total length of the vertical blanking in this condition is 21 lines in the 60Hz mode and 25 lines in the 50Hz mode. parts (like AGe gating) can remain active. When external signals are applied to the sync separator, the connections between the two parts must be interrupted. This can be. obtained by connecting Pin 22 to ground. Application When External Video Signals Have to Be Synchronized The input of the sync separator is externally available. For the normal application, the video output signal (Pin 17) is AC-coupled to this input (see Figure 2). It is possible to interrupt this connection and to drive the sync separator from another source; e.g., a teletext decoder in serial mode or a signal coming from the PT-plug. When a teletext decoder is applied, the IF-amplifier and synchronization circuit are running in the same phase so that the various connections between the two This results in the following condition: - AGC detector is not gated. - AFC circuit is active. - Mute circuit not active so that the sound channel remains switched-on. - The first phase detector has an optimal time constant for external video sources. 47k + 82k 22nF ~820k ~w ~7k " Uk 1 27 +o-------~~----.---~ / ~~F 28 HORIZONTAL FLYBACK SANDCASrLE 2.7k + 2S HORIZONTAL DRIVE VER~R~~~___________________3~ F~~~~ 2k 2S ____________________~4 lSOpF B8nF 24 TUNERAGC Vee + 5 ---------------------1 r IFINPUT~ ~I li~ "':'" 22nF I. 10"" 27k 10'!.,. 22nF 1.~~_! .,£:0 2.7nF 23 7 22 B8k 201r C ...... ........ 0-- 21 TDA4S0S .. +_Il 82k Clr-- 0.47"" l.8k 0----------------------1 + AFCSWlTCH f100PF ~3.3k I"F 10 +11-330k 19 220k 11 + . 220k O~~ _------------------1~2i 2.7k w~ 1 "::'" 22nF 14 - 17~ 18 ~ AFC 2.2k ~ ~ 1 : :B8pF " ~~F I~I--_---' -;;1 - J5.SMB I 680 Figure 1.

January 14, 1987 9-9 3 5.8 I Product Specification Signetics Linear Products TDA2577A Sync Circuit With Vertical Oscillator and Driver APPLICATION INFORMATION The TDA2577A generates the signal for driving the horizontal deflection output circuit. It also contains a synchronized vertical sawtooth generator for direct drive of the vertical deflection output stage. The horizontal oscillator and output stage can start operating on a very low supply current (1 , 6;;' 4mA), which can be taken directly from the supply line. Therefore, it is possible to derive the main supply (Pin 10) from the horizontal deflection output stage. The duty factor of the horizontal output signal is about 65% during the starting-up procedure. After starting up, the second phase detector ('1'2) is activated to control the timing of the negativegoing edge of the horizontal output signal. v'~'1 IN-SYNC CONDITION SLOW rp, FAST MODE; ......

Voltage Levels at Pin 18 (V,8-9) The slicing level of the horizontal sync separator is independent of the amplitude of the sync pulse at the input. The resistor between Pins 6 and 7 determines its value. A 4.7kn resistor gives a slicing level at the middle of the sync pulse. The nominal top sync level at the input is 3.1V. The amplitude selective noise inverter is activated at a level of 0.7V. waveform with its rising edge refering to the top of the horizontal oscillator signal. In the second loop, the phase of the flyback pulse is compared to another reference waveform, the timing of which is such that the top of the flyback pulse is situated symmetrically on the horizontal blanking interval of the video signal. Therefore, the first loop can be designed for a good noise immunity, whereas the second loop can be as fast as desired for compensation of switch-off delays in the horizontal output stage. Good stability is obtained by means of the two control loops. In the first loop, the phase of the horizontal sync signal is compared to a The first phase detector is gated with a pulse derived from the horizontal oscillator signal. This gating (slow time constant) is switched A bandgap reference voltage (6.5V) is provided for supply and reference of the vertical oscillator and comparator stage. NORMAL MODE off during catching. Also, the output current of the phase detector is increased fivefold during the catching time and VCR conditions (fast time constant). The first phase detector is inhibited during the retrace time of the vertical oscillator. The in-sync, out-of-sync, or no-video condition is detected by the video transmitter identification/ coincidence detector circuit (Pin 1B). The voltage on Pin 1B defines the time constant and gating of the first phase detector. The relationship between this voltage and the various switching levels is shown in Figure 2. The complete survey of the switching actions is given in Table 1.

The stability of displayed video information (e.g., channel number) during noise-only conditions is improved by the first phase detector time constant being set to slow. The average voltage level of the video input on Pin 5 during noise-only conditions should not exceed 5.5V. Otherwise, the time constant switch may be set to fast due to the average voltage level on Pin 1B dropping below 0.1V. When the voltage on Pin 1B drops below 100mV, a counter is activated which sets the time constant switch to fast, January 14, 19B7 and not gated for 3 vertical periods. This condition occurs when a new video signal is present at Pin 5. When the horizontal oscillator is locked, the voltage on Pin 1B increases. Nominally, a level of 5V is reached within 15ms (1 vertical period). The mute switching level of 1.2V is reached within 5ms (C'B = 47nF). If the video transmitter identification circuit is required to operate under VCR playback conditions, the first phase detector can be set to fast by connecting a resistor of 1BOkn between Pin 1Band 9-10 ground. Also, a current of 0.6mA into Pin 13 sets the first phase detector to fast without affecting the mute output function (active High with no video signal detected). For VCR playback without mute function, the first phase detector can be set to fast by connecting a resistor of 1kn to the supply (Pin 10). The supply for the horizontal oscillator (Pin 15) and horizontal output stage (Pin 11) is derived from the voltage at Pin 16 during the start condition. The horizontal output signal starts at a nominal supply current into Pin 16 Signetics Linear Products Product Specification Sync Circuit With Vertical Oscillator and Driver of 3.5mA, which will result in a supply voltage of about 5.5V (for guaranteed operation of all devices 116 > 4mA). It is possible that the main supply voltage at Pin lOis OV during starting, so the main supply of the Ie can be taken from the horizontal deflection output stage. The start of the other Ie functions depends on the value of the main supply voltage at Pin 10. At 5.5V, all Ie functions start operating except the second phase detector (oscillator to flyback pulse). The output voltage of the second phase detector at Pin 14 is clamped by means of an internally-loaded NPN emitter-follower. This ensures that the duty factor of the horizontal output signal (Pin 11) remains at about 65%. The second phase detector will close if the supply voltage at Pin 10 reaches B.BV. At this value, the supply current for the horizontal oscillator and output stage is delivered by Pin 10, which also causes the voltage at Pin 16 to change to a stabilized B.7V. This change switches off the NPN emitter-follower at Pin 14 and activates the second phase detector. The supply voltage for the horizontal oscillator will, however, still be referred to the stabilized voltage at Pin 16, and the duty factor of the output signal at Pin 12 is at the value required by the delay at the horizontal deflection stage. Thus, switch-off delays in the horizontal output stage are compensated. When no horizontal flyback signal is detected, the duty factor of the horizontal output signal is 50%. Horizontal picture shift is possible by externally charging or discharging the 47nF capacitor connected to Pin 14. The Ie also contains a synchronized vertical oscillator/sawtooth generator. The oscillator Signal is connected to the internal comparator (the other side of which is connected to Pin 2) via an inverter and amplitude divider stage. The output of the comparator drives an emitter-follower output stage at Pin 1. For a linear sawtooth in the oscillator, the load resistor at Pin 3 should be connected to a voltage source of 26V or higher. The sawtooth amplitude is not influenced by the main supply at Pin 10. The feedback signal is applied to Pin 2 and compared to the sawtooth signal at Pin 3. For an economical feedback circuit with less picture bounce, the sawtooth signal is internally precorrected by 3% (convex) referred to Pin 2. The linearity of the vertical deflection current depends upon the oscillator signal at Pin 3 and the feedback signal at Pin- 2. Synchronization of the vertical oscillator is inhibited when the mute output is present at Pin 13. To minimize the influence of the horizontal part on the vertical part, a 6.5V bandgap reference source is provided for supply and reference of the vertical oscillator and comparator. The sandcastle pulse, generated at Pin 17, has three different voltage levels. The highest level (ltV) can be used for burst gating and black level clamping. The second level (4.6V) is obtained from the horizontal flyback pulse at Pin 12 and used for horizontal blanking. The third level (2.5V) is used for vertical blanking and is derived by counting the horizontal frequency pulses. For 50Hz, the blanking pulse duration is 21 lines and for 60Hz it is 17 lines. The blanking pulse duration is set by the negative voltage value of the horizontal flyback pulse at Pin 12. The Ie also incorporates a vertical guard circuit which monitors the vertical feedback signal at Pin 2. If this level is below 3V or higher than 5.BV, the guard circuit will insert a continuous level of 2.5V into the sandcastle output signal. This will result in complete blanking of the screen if the sandcastle pulse is used for blanking in the TV set.

It is possible that the main supply voltage at Pin lOis OV during starting, so the main supply of the IC can be taken from the horizontal deflection output stage.

At 5.5V, all IC functions I Signetics Unear Products Product Specification Sync Circuit With Vertical Oscillator and Driver start operating except the second phase detector (oscillator to flyback pulse). The output voltage of the second phase detector at Pin 14 is clamped by means of an internally-loaded NPN emitter-follower. This ensures that the duty factor of the horizontal output signal (Pin 11) remains at about 6S%. The second phase detector will close if the supply voltage at Pin 10. reaches 8.8V. At this value, the supply current for the horizontal oscillator and output stage is delivered by Pin 10, which also causes the voltage at Pin 16 to change to a stabilized 8.7V. This change switches off the NPN emitter-follower at Pin14 and activates the second phase detector. The supply voltage for the horizontal oscillator will, however, still be referred to the stabilized voltage at Pin 16, and the duty factor of the output signal at Pin 12 is at the value required by the delay at the horizontal deflection stage. Thus, switch-off delays in the horizontal output stage are compensated. When no horizontal f1yback signal is detected, the duty factor of the horizontal output signal is SO%. Horizontal picture shift is possible by externally charging or discharging the 47nF capacitor connected to Pin 14. The IC also contains a synchronized vertical oscillator/sawtooth generator. The oscillator signal is connected to the intemal comparator (the other side of which is connected to Pin 2), via an inverter and amplitude divider stage. The output of the comparator drives an emitter-follower output stage at Pin 1. For a linear sawtooth in the oscillator, the load resistor at Pin 3 should be connected to a voltage source of 26V or higher. The sawtooth amplitude is not influenced by the main supply at Pin 10. The feedback signal is applied to Pin 2 and compared to the sawtooth signal at Pin 3. For an economical feedback circuit with less picture bounce, the sawtooth signal is internally pre-corrected by 6% (convex) referred to Pin 2.

It cons i sts of a very high resolution CRT paired with precision deflection coils and all the associated display circuitry, as shown in Figure 1. Using the same printed circuit board and components, it can easily be adapted to operate over a wide range of line and field frequencies with different flyback times in either horizontal (landscape) or vertical (portrait) format. The possible applications of this unit range from video games to high·resolution displays. However, it is as a computer terminal display device that the DGD will be most useful. Normally, it is the logic design that determines all the parameters to be specified in a computer system, and it is only when the logic circuitry has been finalized that a suitable display is sought. Consequently, the display must be tailormade for the application. There are no signs of any standardization in the future. For this reason the DGD has been designed to allow different dedicat- ed display units to be built up very simply from one basic design. The DGD is a straightforward and efficient design which will operate with line frequencies of between 15 and 70kHz and field frequencies of 50 to 100Hz, interlaced or noninterlaced. All the design features combine to provide the resolution required for very high density displays (up to 1.5 million picture elements per page). They also ensure a sharp picture right to the screen corners, and allow operation at high horizontal line frequencies without undue temperature rise. A diode-split transformer provides combined line scan and EHT and it is this component which allows changes in line frequency and flyback time to be accomplished very easily. NOTE: EHT stands for extreme haute-tension, or extreme high voltage. GENERAL DESCRIPTION Figure 2 shows a block diagram of the DGD unit and its auxiliary circuits. (The unit is to the right of the broken line, with the auxiliary circuits to the left.) The circuit diagram is shown in Figure 3. Both line scanning and EHT are provided by a purpose-built diode-split transformer. It is the flexibility of this device which produces the extreme versatility of the DGD unit as a whole and allows operation of the wide range of line frequencies and flyback times. In addition, all auxiliary power supply requirements are obtained from the same transformer. The primary is provided with several taps, each of which corresponds to a different peak voltage and hence flyback time. By careful positioning of these transformer primary taps, and by utilizing both parallel and series connection of the line deflection coils, a wide variety of f1yback times can be accomodated in steps. Each step allows sensible values of f1yback ratio for the different line frequencies. Apart from the selection of the correct transformer tap, the only other components that may need to be changed in order to use a different line frequency are the oscillator timing capacitor C6, S-correction capacitor C22, base drive resistor R52, linearity control L1, and heater resistor RB4 (see Figure 3). Although deflection defocusing has been minimized by careful design of the line deflection coils, there is still some focusing action in the deflection process. Also, there is a difference between the electron beam path lengths for axial beams and those deflected to the tube corners. These effects combine to produce a change in focus requirements from the center to the edges of the picture tube. To overcome this, dynamic focus is employed. The active dynamic focus circuit applies parabolic cor- Figure 1. DGD Unit February 19B7 The normal DGD requirements of good raster geometry and minimal loss of display quality between the screen center and corners are even more important in high-definition systems. To ensure a display offering the best possible resolution over the whole line frequency range, the unit uses high·quality purpose-designed deflection coils type AT1039. These are paired with either the 12 in (M31326) or 15 in (M38·32B) picture tubes. These coils have been designed using recently developed techniques to give good deflection performance and raster geometry suitable for correction by built-in magnets. For the 12 in tube, type AT1039/03 deflection coils are used. Two types of coil are available for the 15 in tube, the AT1039/00 which has been optimized for portrait (vertical) formats and the AT1039/01 for landscape (horizontal) displays. Terminations to each coil are brought out separately to allow for both series and parallel connections. 9-25 • Application Note Signetics Linear Products A Versatile High-Resolution Monochrome Data and Graphics Display Unit 1V video AN162 auxiliary circuits main circuit VIOEO PREAMPLIFIER VIDEO OUTPUT SSV HT video 0-------------------0-'" LINE DRIVER •. h.t. 17kV LINE OUTPUT STAGE AT4043/64 TTL ....ve line inputs sync DYNAMIC FOCUS SYNC INVERTER LINE OSCILLATOR -~~~~eo- FIELO TIMEBASE ________________~ TOA2595 :~~ TDA2653A o__________________________~~~--------------------J POWER SUPPLY Figure 2. DGD Unit Block Diagram rection in both the line and field directions to give precise focus over the wHole raster. Because the electron gun is a unipotential type, the tube has a fairly flat focus characteristic. The amplitude of the dynamic focus can therefore be preset and adjustment is unnecessary. Width control is accomplished with a seriesparallel inductance arrangement which does not affect the flyback time or EHT. Adjustable picture shift is supplied in both the line and field directions by passing DC through the appropriate deflection coils. The TDA2595 line oscillator combination IC provides the correct waveforms to drive the line output transistor via a transformer-coupled driver stage. This IC includes both the line oscillator and coincidence detector, a line flyback pulse, obtained from the collector of the line output transistor TR2, is required for phase detection. A protection circuit which turns off the output drive if the voltage at Pin B is either below 4 or above BV is used to provide overvoltage protection for the line output stage. February 19B7 All the field timebase functions are converted by the TDA2653A IC. It takes a positive-going field sync input at TIL level and drives the impedance-matched AT-l 039 deflection coils in series connection. A field blanking pulse, which may be used for screen burn protection, is available from Pin 2. The Ie is contained in a 13-lead DIP plastic power encapsulation type SOT-141, which offers straightforward heats inking. An em iller-driven video output stage is used with output transistor TR6 and driver TR7. The collector load resistors RB7 and RBB with peaking coil L5 and some compensation in the emiller circuit ensure a bandwidth of 60MHz at 35V, measured at the cathode. In order to minimize stray capacitance, the video amplifier is placed on the tube-base printed circuit board close to the cathode pin of the tube. The 55V HT (High Tension) line is provided from the line output stage. The unit will accept video input at TIL level with positive-going field sync and negativegoing line sync. However, inputs at other levels and polarities may be accepted by using the auxiliary circuits, as shown in Figure 2. 9-26 The main HT line input will depend upon the line frequency and varies from about 30 to 150V. If lower values of HT are preferred, a floating tap will accommodate a series boosted circuit arrangement. A 12V supply is required at all frequencies. The total power consumption of the unit is about 40W. Standard measures are taken to protect the circuitry in the event of a picture tube flashover. Spark gaps for all picture tube pins are provided and all are returned to a single point which is, in turn, connected to the outside aquadag layer of the tube and the common earth point. To achieve a satisfactory stable display with good linearity and one that is free from undesirable modulation, well recognized procedures should be adopted with regard to printed circuit board layout. It is essential that each individual circuit block has its own grounding system connected to a central point on the main printed circuit board which is, in turn, connected to the chassis. Circuit layout within the individual blocks may also be critical. Signetlcs Linear Products Application Note A Versatile High-Resolution Monochrome Data and Graphics Display Unit AN162 Table 1.

Data and Graphics Display Unit Circuit Diagram (Continued) February 1987 9-29 ~ • Signetics AN1621 TDA2578A/TDA3651 PCB Layout Directives Application Note Linear Products The TDA2578A is a sync separator and horizontal/vertical synchronization circuit while the TDA3651 is a vertical deflection output driver. This application note covers general directives for the circuit and PCB layout to achieve stable horizontal time stability and correct vertical interface. The TDA2578A combines both a horizontal oscillator/PLL and a vertical oscillator/PLL. When used in conjunction with a TDA3651 vertical driver, high system loop gains are involved. This requires careful atlention to ground points and consideration to magnetic fields within the receiver/monitor design. GENERAL PCB LAYOUT DIRECTIVES • Each IC and discrete component should be surrounded by a good ground plane (See Figure 1). • The ground plane should not be a complete closed-loop. This is to avoid ground plane-induced currents created by magnetic fields. • All circuit peripheral components should be connected to the ground plane. • All high current points should be grounded on another ground plane (double-sided PCB). • Each IC circuit should have its own common "solid" ground point and should be connected to the other circuitry so that no "strange" ground plane currents are injected. • Input leads should be short and direct to avoid cross-coupling by both electrostatic and electromagnetic fields. • A small value resistor in series with input leads can decrease flashover IC failure problems • Position components with respect to leakage fields of the horizontal line output transformer. February 1987 TDA2578A PCB CONSIDERATION TDA3651 PCB LAYOUT CONSIDERATIONS • Grounding point of vertical oscillator timing capacitor (Pin 3 & ground) should be connected to the Pin 9 ground pin, not via a PCB trace which carries either large horizontal line currents or video information. • The vertical feedback voltage input (Pin 2) decoupling capacitor should be connected to the same PCB trace as the vertical oscillator timing capacitor. • The vertical deflection current loop should be short and be of low impedance, i.e., ample PCB traces on Pin 5 deflection coil, coupling capacitor, and connection to the feedback resistor on Pin 4. • Damping components and horizontal line suppression across the yoke deflection coil should be located as close as possible to the deflection coil connector. • The vertical feedback input (Pin 2) has a very high input impedance; therefore, the scaling resistors should be situated close to Pin 2 to prevent parasitic capacitive horizontal line cross-coupling. • Horizontal line information modulated on the vertical waveform at Pin 5 should not exceed 1Vp.p. This is usually caused by: 1. Inductive & capacitive coupling across the yoke coils. 2. Capacitive coupling within vertical control loop. 3. Inductive magnetic coupling. 4. Supply voltage variations. • The vertical integrator capacitor (Pin 4) can carry high peak currents up to 30mA during vertical interval. Therefore it should be firmly grounded to Pin 9, not, however, by the same ground PCB trace as used by the vertical oscillator timing capacitor. • The TDA2578A horizontal output (Pin 11) to drive the base of the horizontal output transistor should be restricted to 30mA peak. This prevents disturbing voltage drops on the TDA2578A ground lead which can result in an offset voltage to the vertical comparator. • Special atlention is required when capacitive coupling is used to drive the horizontal output transistor. • Vertical interlace is strongly influenced by parasitic signals when coincidence occurs between the vertical oscillator flyback and the horizontal blanking interval. Coincidence is determined by slicing in the vertical integrator and the pre-adjustment of the vertical oscillator. • Decoupling of the supply voltages (Pins 10 and 16) should be kept as short and direct to the ground pin (Pin 9) as possible. Ripple on the supplies should be less than 1%. 9-30 • Vertical input (Pin 1) requires a bypass capacitor of 10pF to ground (Pin 2) to suppress the IC current noise. • Feedback capacitance of 220pF from Pin 1 (input) and Pin 5 (output) improves loop stability. • Supply voltage decoupling (Pin 9) should be connected directly to ground (Pin 4). • The supply to both the TDA2578A and the TDA3651 should be decoupled at the source to remove any extraneous noise.

The divider system has an internal frequency doubling circuit, so the horizontal oscillator is working at its normal line frequency and one line period equals 2 clock pulses. Due to the divider system, no vertical frequency adjustment is needed. The divider has a discriminator window for automatically switching over from the 60Hz to 50Hz system. The divider system operates with 3 different divider reset windows for maximum interference/disturbance protection. The windows are activated via an up/down counter. The counter increases its counter value by 1 for each time the separated vertical sync. pulse is within the searched window. The count is reduced by 1 when the vertical sync. pulse is not present. Large (Search) Window: Divider Ratio Between 488 and 722 This mode is valid for the following conditions: 1. Divider is looking for a new transmitter. 2. Divider ratio found, not within the narrow window limits. 3. Non-standard TV-signal condition detected while a double or enlarged vertical sync. pulse is still found after the internallygenerated antitop flutter pulse has ended. This means a vertical sync. pulse width larger than 8 clock pulses (50Hz), that is, 10 clock pulses (60Hz). In general this mode is activated for video tape recorders operating in the featureltrick mode. 4. Up/down counter value of the divider system operating in the narrow window mode drops below count 1. 5. Externally setting. This can be reached by loading Pin 18 with a resistor of 180kn to earth or connecting a 3.6V diode stabistor between Pin 18 and ground. Narrow Window: Divider Ratio Between 522 - 528 (60Hz) or 622 - 628 (50Hz). The divider system switches over to this mode when the up/down counter has reached its maximum value of 12 approved vertical sync. pulses. When the divider operates in this mode and a vertical sync. pulse is missing within the window, the divider is reset at the end of the window and the counter value is lowered by 1. At a counter value below count 1 the divider system switches over to the large window mode.

Timing Diagram of the TDA2579 Standard TV Norm When the up/down counter has reached its maximum value of 12 in the narrow window mode, the information applied to the up/down counter is changed such that the standard divider ratio value is tested. When the counter has reached a value of 14, the divider system is changed over to the standard divider ratio mode. In this mode the divider is always reset at the standard value even if the vertical sync. pulse is missing. A missed vertical sync. pulse lowers the counter value by 1. When the counter reaches the value of 10, the divider system is switched over to the large window mode. The standard TV norm condition gives maximum protection for video recorders playing tapes with anti-copy guards. No TV Transmitter Found: (Pin 18 < 1.2V) In this condition, only noise is present, the divider is reset to count 628. In this way a November 14, 1986 ~~S 9-37 stable picture display at normal height is achieved. Video Tape Recorders in Feature Mode It should be noted that some VTRs operating in the feature modes, such as picture search, generate such distorted pictures that the no TV transmitter detection circuit can be activated as Pin V's drops below 1.2V. This would imply a rollowing picture (condition d). In general, VTR machines use a reinserted vertical sync. pulse in the feature mode. Therefore, the divider system has been made such that the automatic reset of the divider at count 628 when V's is below 1.2V is inhibited when a vertical sync. pulse is detected. The divider system also generates the antitop flutter pulse which inhibits the phase 1 detector during the vertical sync. pulse. The width of this pulse depends on the divider mode. For the divider mode 1I, the start is • Slgnetics Linear Products Product Specification Synchronization Circuit generated at the reset of the divider. In modes!1 and g, the anti-top flutter pulse starts at the beginning of the first equalizing pulse. The anti-top flutter pulse ends at count 8 for 50Hz and count 10 for 60Hz. The vertical blanking pulse is also generated via the divider system. The start is at the reset of the divider while the blanking pulse ends at count 34 (17 lines for 60Hz, and at count 42 (21 lines) for 50Hz systems. The vertical blanking pulse generated at the sandcastle output Pin 17 is made by adding the anti-top flutter pulse and the blank pulse. In this way the vertical blanking pulse starts at the beginning of the first equalizing pulse when the divider operates in the !1 or g mode. For generating a vertical linear sawtooth voltage a capacitor should be connected to Pin 3. The recommended value is 150nF to 330nF (see Block Diagram). The capacitor is charged via an internal current source starting at the reset of the divider system. The voltage on the capacitor is monitored by a comparator which is activated also at reset. When the capacitor has reached a voltage value of 5.5V for the 50Hz system or 4.7V for the 60Hz system the voltage is kept constant until the charging period ends. The charge period width is 26 clock pulses. At clock pulse 26 the comparator is switched off and the capacitor is discharged by an NPN transistor current source, the value of which can be set by an external resistor between Pin 4 and ground (Pin 9). Pin 4 is connected to a PNP transistor current source which determines the current of the NPN current source. The PNP current source on Pin 4 is connected to an internal zener diode reference voltage which has a typical voltage of '" 7.1V. The recommended operating current range is 10 to 50pA. The resistance at pin R4 should be 140 to 700kn. By using a double current mirror concept the vertical sawtooth pre-correction can be set on the desired value by means of external components between Pin 4 and Pin 3, or. by connecting the Pin 4 resistor to the vertical current measuring resistor of the vertical output stage. The vertical amplitude is set by the current of Pin 4. The vertical feedback voltage of the output stage has to be applied to Pin 2. For the normal amplitude adjustment the values are DC = IV and AC = 0.8V. Due to the automatic system adaption both values are valid for 50Hz and 60Hz. The low DC-voltage value improves the picture bounce behaviour as less parabola compensation is necessary. Even a fully DCcoupled feedback circuit is possible. Vertical Guard The IC also contains a vertical guard circuit. This circuit monitors the vertical feedback signal on Pin 2. When the level on Pin 2 is below O.4V or higher than 1.9V, the guard November 14, 1986 TDA2579 circuit inserts a continuous level of 2.5V in the sandcastle output signal of Pin 17. This results in the blanking of the picture displayed, thus preventing a burnt-in horizontal line. The guard levels specified refer to the zener diode reference voltage source level. Driver Output The driver output is at Pin 1, it can deliver a drive current of 1.5mA at 5V output. The internal impedance is about 150n. The output pin is also connected to an internal current source with a sinking current of 0.25mA. Sync. Separator, Phase Detector and TV Station Identification, (Pins 5, 6, 7, 8, and 18) The video input signal is connected to Pin 5. The sync. separator is designed such that the slicing level is independent of the amplitude of the sync. pulse. The black level is measured and stored in the capacitor at Pin 7. The slicing level value is stored in the capacitor at Pin 6. The slicing level value can be chosen by the value of the external resistor between Pins 6 and 7. The value is given by the formula: RS x 100 P = - - - (Rs value in kn) 5.3 + Rs Where Rs is the resistor between Pins 6 and 7 and top sync. level equals 100%. The recommended resistor value is 5.6kn. Black Level Detector A gating signal is used for the black level detector. This signal is composed of an internal horizontal reference pulse with a duty cycle of 50% and the flyback pulse at Pin 12. In this way the TV transmitter identification operates also for all DC conditions at input Pin 5 (no video modulation, plain carrier only). During the frame interval the slicing level detector is inhibited by a signal which starts with the anti-top flutter pulse and ends with the reset vertical divider circuit. In this way shift of the slicing level due to the vertical sync. signal is reduced and separation of the vertical sync. pulse is improved. Noise Inverter An internal noise inverter is activated when the video level at Pin 5 drops below 0.7V. The IC embodies also a built-in sync. pulse noise level detection circuit. This circuit is directly connected to Pin 5 and measures the noise level at the middle of the horizontal sync. pulse. When a noise level of 600mVp.p is detected, a counter circuit is activated. A video input signal is processed as "acceptable noise-free" when 12 out of 16 sync. pulses have a noise level below 600mV for two succeeding frame periods. The sync. 9-38 pulses are processed during a 16 line width gating period generated by the divider system. The measuring circuit has a built-in noise level hysteresis of about 150mV ('" 3dB). When the "acceptable noise-free" condition is found, the phase detector of Pin 8 is switched to not-gated and normal time constant. When a higher sync. pulse noise level is found, the phase detector is switched over to slow time constant and gated sync. pulse phase detection, At the same time the integration time of the vertical sync. pulse separator is adapted. Phase Detector The phase detector circuit is connected to Pin 8. This circuit consists of 3 separate phase detectors which are activated depending on the voltage of Pin 18 and the state of the sync. pulse noise detection circuit. All three phase detectors are activated during the vertical blanking period, this with the exception of the anti-top flutter pulse period, and the separated vertical sync. pulse time. As a result, phase jumps in the video signal related to video head takeover of video recorders are quickly restored within the vertical blanking period. At the end of the blanking period, the phase detector time constant is lowered by 2.5 times. In this way no need for external VTR time constant switching exists, so all station numbers are suitable for signals from VTR, video games or home computers. For quick locking of a new TV station starting from a noise-only signal condition (normal time constant), a special circuit is incorporated. A new TV station which is not locked to the horizontal oscillator will result in a voltage drop below 0.1 V at Pin 18. This will activate a frame period counter which switches the phase detector to fast for 3 frame periods. Horizontal Oscillator The horizontal oscillator will now lock to the new TV station and as a result, the voltage on Pin 18 will increase to about 6.5V. When Pin 18 reaches a level of 1.8V the mute output transistor of Pin 13 is switched off and the divider is set to the large window. In general the mute signal is switched off within 5ms (pin CIS = 47nF) after reception of a new TV Signal. When the voltage on Pin 18 reaches a level of 5V, usually within 15ms, the frame counter is switched off and the time constant is switched from fast to normal. If the new TV station is weak, the sync. noise detector is activated. This will result in a changeover of Pin 18 voltage from 7V to '" 1OV. When Pin 18 exceeds the level of 7.8V the phase detector is switched to slow time constant and gated sync. pulse condition. Signetics Linear Products Product Specification Synchronization Circuit When desired, most conditions of the phase detector can also be set by external means in the following way; a.

Fast time constant TV transmitter identifi· cation circuit active, connect a resistor of 180kn between Pin 18 and ground. This condition can also be set by using a 3.6V stabistor diode instead of a resistor. c. Slow time constant, (with exception of frame blanking period), connect Pin 18 via a resistor of 10kn to +12V, Pin 10. In this condition the transmitter identification circuit is not active. d. No switching to slow time constant desired (transmitter identification circuit active), connect a 6.8V zener diode between Pin 18 and ground. Figure 2 illustrates the operation of the 3 phase detector circuits. Supply (Pins 9, 10 and 16) The IC has been designed such that the horizontal oscillator and output stage can start operating by application of a very low supply current into Pin 16. The horizontal oscillator starts at a supply current of about 4.5mA. The horizontal output stage is forced into the non-conducting stage until the supply current has a typical value of 5.5mA. The circuit has been designed so that after starting the horizontal output function a current drop of "" 1mA is allowed. The starting circuit gives the possibility to derive the main supply (Pin 10), from the horizontal output stage. The horizontal output signal can also be used as the oscillator signal for synchronized switch-mode power supplies. The maximum allowed starting current is 10mA. The main supply should be connected to Pin 10, and Pin 9 should be used as ground. When the voltage on Pin 10 increases from zero to its final value (typically 12V) a part of the supply current of the starting circuit is taken from Pin 10 via internal diodes, and the voltage on Pin 16 will stabilize to a typical value of 8.7V. In stabilized condition (Pin V10 > 9.5V) the minimum required supply current to Pin 16 is "" 2.5mA. All other IC functions are switched on via the main supply voltage on Pin 10. When the voltage on Pin 10 reaches a value of "" 7V the horizontal phase detector circuit is activated and the vertical ramp on Pin 3 is started. The second phase detector circuit and burst pulse circuit are started when the voltage on Pin 10 reaches the stabilized voltage value of Pin 16 which is typically 8.7V. For clOSing the second phase detector loop, a flyback pulse must be applied to Pin 12. November 14, 1986 ., DETECTOR 18"'" O.4mA '1'2 DETECTOR 18"" O.4mA 'f'3 detector Is= 1mA f\~ I\.

For remote switch-off Pin 16 can be connected to ground (via an NPN transistor with a series resistor of "" 500n) which switches off the horizontal output. Horizontal Oscillator, Horizontal Output Transistor, and Second Phase Detector (Pins 11, 12, 14 and 15) The horizontal oscillator is connected to Pin 15. The frequency is set by an external RC combination between Pin 15 and ground, Pin 9. The open collector horizontal output stage is connected to Pin 11. An internal zener diode configuration limits the open voltage of Pin 11 to "" 14.5V. The horizontal output transistor at Pin 11 is blocked until the current into Pin 16 reaches a value of "" 5.5mA. A higher current results in a horizontal output signal at Pin 11, which starts with a duty cycle of "" 35% HIGH. The duty cycle is set by an internal current source-loaded NPN emitter-follower stage connected to Pin 14 during starting. When Pin 16 changes over to voltage stabilization, the NPN emitter-follower and current source load at Pin 14 are switched off and the second phase detector circuit is activated, provided a horizontal flyback pulse is present at Pin 12. When no flyback pulse is detected at Pin 12 the duty cycle of the horizontal output stage is set to 50%. The phase detector circuit at Pin 14 compensates for storage time in the horizontal deflec· tion output stage. The horizontal output pulse 9-39 duration in 29j1S HIGH for storage times between 1j1S and 17 j.lS (29j1S flyback pulse of 12j1S). A higher storage time increases the HIGH time. Horizontal picture shift is possible by forcing an external charge or discharge current into the capacitor of Pin 14. Mute Output and 50/60Hz Identification (PIn 13) The collector of an NPN transistor is connected to Pin 13. When the voltage on Pin 18 drops below 1.2V (no TV transmitter) the NPN transistor is switched ON. When the voltage on Pin 18 increases to a level of "" 1.8V (new TV transmitter found) the NPN transistor is switched OFF. Pin 13 has also the possibility for 50/60Hz identification. This function is available when Pin 13 is connected to Pin 10 (+ 12V) via an external pull-up resistor of 10 - 20kn. When no TV transmitter is identified, the voltage on Pin 13 will be LOW « 0.5V). When a TV transmitter with a divider ratio> 576 (50Hz) is detected the output voltage of Pin 13 is HIGH (+12). When a TV transmitter with a divider ratio < 576 (60Hz) is found an internal PNP transistor with its emitter connected to Pin 13 will force this pin output voltage down to "" 7.5V. Sandcastle Output (Pin 17) The sandcastle output pulse generated at Pin 17, has three different voltage levels. The highest level, (11V), can be used for burst gating and black level clamping. The second level, (4.5V), is obtained from the horizontal flyback pulse at Pin 12, and is used for horizontal blanking. The third level, (2.5V), is used for vertical blanking and is derived via • Signetics Linear Products Product Specification TDA2579 Synchronization Circuit the vertical divider system. For 50Hz the blanking pulse duration is 42 clock pulses and for 60Hz it is 34 clock pulses started from the vertical divider reset. For TV signals which have a divider ratio between 622 and 628 or 522 and 528 the blanking pulse is started at the first equalizing pulse.

Timing Diagram February 1987 9-58 - AN158 Signetics Linear Products Application Note Features of the TDA2595 Synchronization Processor SYNC SEPARATOR Adaptive sync separator to slice H-sync at 50% and V-sync at 25% independent on sync-amplitude. This is to insure immunity against deteriorated sync impulses. The black level is stored on a capacitor which is fed to the positive video-signal (source impedance 200>2) into Pin 11. The slicing level is detected internally and stored in a capacitor at Pin 12. The internal vertical integrator has a delay of 451's and is of the double-slope type to avoid jitter and to improve noise immunity. VERTICAL/COMPOSITE SYNC The output stage at Pin 9 delivers a positive vertical pulse or a positive composite sync signal if the current drain is higher than 3mA. If no TV transmitter is detected, the output is switched to ground. The source impedance is low-ohmic. 15kHz VCO The veo is a current controlled ramp oscillator with 491's rise time and 151's fall time. The timing capacitor is connected to Pin 16; the control current has to be fed into Pin 14. to ground, ground is electrically disconnected from Pin 17. To achieve a small phase adjustment a small current may be injected into Pin 3. If the oscillator is locked in and Pin 13 not connected to ground, Pin 18 switches to high impedance and thus the loop filter to the "long" time-constant. The aim of having two different thresholds at the flyback input is to determine the performance of the 1>2 loop, e.g., a straight vertical center line, by the amplitude of the applied flyback pulse without affecting the blanking time. By switching loop gain or loop time-constant, the lock in condition of the oscillator is not disturbed. This enables a fast search tuning using the TV transmitter identification (mute) as a search stop. To increase noise immunity the phase detector is inhibited during horizontal retrace and vertical retrace if the oscillator is locked in and Pin 13 not connected to ground or V+. COINCIDENCE DETECTOR rt>3 The coincidence circuit detects whether there is coincidence between the H-sync pulse and a 81'S impulse generated by the yeo. The capacitor at Pin 13 is discharged continuously by 81'S current pulses of 501lA. If there is coincidence, the capacitor is additionally charged by H-sync pulses of 3501lA. If the voltage at Pin 13 exceeds 3V, the loop gain is reduced and the loop time constant is switched to the "long" value. While adjusting fa, Pin 12 should be connected to ground. If the voltage exceeds 4.5V, the phase detector 1>1 is gated to improve noise immunity. The oscillator generates the following Signals (see timing diagram Figure 2): MUTE CIRCUIT - timing reference for 1>1 - gating pulse for 1>1 - reference pulse for video identification circuit and coincidence detector 1>3 - burst keying pulse - time reference for 1>2 rt>1 PHASE CONTROL The phase control 1>1 compares the 1>1 timing reference of the veo with the center of the H-sync signal and converts the time difference into a proportional current at Pin 17. The external low-pass filter at Pin 17 determines the time constant and the catching and tracking range of the yeo. If Pin 18 is connected to the V +, the loop gain is increased 4 times as long as the oscillator is not locked in or Pin 13 is connected to ground or V+ (VeR switch). If Pin 18 is connected as shown in the circuit diagram, Pin 18 has the same voltage as Pin 17 as long as the oscillator is not locked in or Pin 13 is connected to ground. Due to this the "long" time constant connected from Pin 18 February 1987 AN158 The mute circuit detects whether there is coincidence between the H-sync impulse and a 81'S impulse generated by the yeo. The capacitor at Pin 12 is discharged during syncpulses of 501lA and by 81'S current pulses of 501lA. If there is coincidence, the capacitor is additionally charged by H-sync pulses of 4501lA. If the voltage at Pin 12 exceeds 4V, mute is released and the mute output at Pin 7 is switched to high impedance. Although the coincidence detector 1>3 and the mute circuit act similarly, separate circuits have been chosen. This is to gain in design flexibility as far as the time constants are related and to keep the mute function alive independently on the VeR switch. rt>2 PHASE CONTROL The phase control 1>2 compares the center of the positive flyback pulse at Pin 2 at a threshold of 3V with the 1>2 timing reference. The time difference is converted into a proportional current at Pin 3. Loop gain and timeconstant are influenced by the external components at Pin 3. The voltage at Pin 3 in turn controls the phase shift. 9-59 SUPER SANDCASTLE For burst keying and vertical and horizontal blanking there is a 3 level pulse at Pin 6. The burst keying part is driven from the veo and is 41'S wide. Due to its small tolerances in widths and phase it keys the burst very exactly and is suitable as black level clamping pulse. The blanking part is derived from the line flyback pulse at Pin 2 at a threshold of 0.2V. If no flyback is applied to Pin 2, there will be continuous blanking level superimposed by the burst keying pulse. The frame blanking part has to be fed in externally as a 2mA current. HORIZONTAL DRIVE The H-drive output is an open-collector output at Pin 4. The output pulse has a constant aspect ratio of 45.3% off and 54.7% on dependent upon the line frequency. An internal guard logic insures that there will be high level during flyback. The output is inhibited by the protection circuit also if the supply voltage is below 4V. In both cases the line flyback vanishes and by this the spot suppressor is activated. SPOT SUPPRESSOR The spot suppressor is an open collector output at Pin 1. If no flyback impulses are detected at Pin 2, the output switches to high impedance and remains there as long as the flyback pulses are missing even if the supply voltage vanishes during that time. PROTECTION CIRCUIT The protection circuit is activated if the voltage at Pin 8 exceeds 8V or decreases below 4V. One of both thresholds may be used (as indicated in Figures 4a and b) to have X-ray protection or overcurrent protection. If activated, the H-drive is inhibited by this and the line flyback vanishes and in turn the spot suppressor is activated. The protection circuit is reset if the supply voltage decreases below 4V, e.g., the set is switched off. II I!! ~ "oCD <0 (j) en ~ - 2 ~ CD ~ ...r--L I\. > all< -= R4 S VERT.

This IC replaces all picture geometry settings which are performed manually during manufacturing. The alignment of 10 picture geometry parameters for the vertical and horizontal deflection is accomplished by means of a microcontroller via the 12C bus. Furthermore, it eliminates the external components needed for adjusting the horizontal frequency and phase position, vertical linearity, picture height, eastwest parabola, and picture width. The east-west shaping circuit is also eliminated.

The concept can also be extended by means of a picture improvement circuit. A brief overview will first be given to clarify this arrangement. Figure 1 shows the block diagram of a complete color decoder from the CVBS interface up to the picture tube. There are switchable filters for separation of the luminance and chrominance signals from one another. Only one IC is necessary for the demodulation of four color standards. The output signals are the standard-independent color difference signals (B-Y) and (R-Y), i.e., U and V. The baseband signals (i.e., color difference signals and luminance signal Y) can either be directly supplied to the video combination or they can be supplied via a signal processor IC as shown here. The video combination comprises all functions for advanced video signal processing. The RGB output signals of the IC can be fed to the video final stages directly. The interface selected in this decoder concept, with the baseband signals as input signals of the video combination, also permits new circuit concepts to be introduced; e.g., the delay line which is required for PAL and SECAM can be realized with CCD lines. Picture improvement circuits with picture memories can also be added. The single-chip multi-standard decoder TDA45551TDA4556 is examined fully in AN1551. Please refer to AN1551 for application information. The Color Transient Improvement (CTI) IC which is incorporated in Figure 1 was also developed for this interface. Two functions are integrated in this circuit: a transient improvement for a better picture, and a Y delay line in gyrator technique to replace the previously-required wound line. The Video Combination IC-TDA3505 In the past, multi-standard color decoders (MSD) have been built up with a number of integrated circuits. Parallel working concepts are known, and also transcoder concepts speCially for PAL and SECAM. The decoders of the various standards require circuit blocks of the same type; this applies in particular to the quadrature amplitude modulation standards (QAM standards) PAL and NTSC, but also to a large extent to the FM standard SECAM. Therefore, an obvious approach for the integration of a multi-standard decoder on one chip is to make use of as many circuit blocks as possible in common for the different standards in order to minimize the components and, also, the crystal area required. Under the condition of automatic standard identification, as is already the state of the art for present MSD concepts, mUltiple utilization of the circuit blocks can only be realized if automatic standard identification is effected by sequential standard scanning. A system of this kind gives the great advantage that the entire decoder, including the filters, can be designed in the optimum way for the individual standards. The video combination IC incorporates all setting functions for color picture reproduction. A black current stabilizing circuit is provided. This saves three tuning operations and also automatically regulates operatingpoint changes due to warming up after switch-on and to aging. RGB signal inputs are provided for signal supply from RGB sources via the audiolvideo plug, e.g., from cameras or from internal teletext decoders. Figure 2 shows the block diagram of the input part of this IC. The two color difference signals -(R-Y) and -(B-Y) are fed in via capacitors and clamped in the input stages to reference values. After the saturation control stages, the - (G-Y) signal is generated with the (G-Y) matrix. These color difference signals, together with the Y-signal which is also clamped in the input stage, are converted to the R, G, and B signals in the R, G, and B matrix.

Front Part of the Video Combination TDA3505 Switching stages. together with a switching matrix and a driver stage for the switching, permit the choice between the picture signals from the color difference and Y inputs, or from the R, G, B inputs. When the R, G, B signals from the R, G, B inputs are selected, they are added to the black levels, which are simultaneously Inserted. The switching times between blanking, insertion, and changeover are about SOns and are so small that there are no visible errors in the picture. If the RGB inputs are constantly connected, synchronization with the other signals is not necessary. The signals also pass through the contrastand brightness-control stages. A peak beam current limitation can be effected via an input to a threshold level switching circuit. The threshold level circuit then reduces the contrast-control voltage. Average beam current limitation is effected directly via the contrastcontrol voltage, whereby under certain circumstances the brightness control Is also reduced via an internal diode. All the pulses required in the IC, and especially for the black current stabilization which will be explained later, are derived from the sandcastle pulse. Signal processing is effected in parallel in three R, G, B channels and, therefore, the description and explanation will continue to be limited to the R channel. Figure 3 shows the functional block diagram of the black current stabilizer. The R signal is blanked out and a measuring pulse is inserted February 1987 for the black current measurement. A subsequent limiter stage prevents overdriving of the video final stages. A control stage is provided for white-point adjustment, which can be effected by means of a DC setting voltage. There is an adding stage in which the voltage from the black current stabilization circuit is added to the R signal. The output stage of the IC can feed the video final stage directly. Its output voltage is supplied via a PNP measuring transistor to the cathode of the CRT. The collector circuit includes a measuring resistor at which voltage drops occur at the respec· tive sequential measuring times; these are due on the one hand to any leakage currents which occur and on the other hand to dark current with leakage currents. These voltages are given to the IC. Following a buffer stage, the measurement voltage for the leakage currents is stored on the capacitor CL. Switch SL is only closed at the time when the signal is blanked and. no signal current can flow. During the black level measurement time, a reference voltage of O.SV is subtracted from the voltage to be measured and then compared in a comparator circuit with the stored voltage for the leakage currents. Switch Sd is only closed during the black measurement time and closes the control loop. Capacitor Cd stores the control voltage. A dark current of 10JJA is not too small for reliable evaluation and not too big, so that if it is in the right time position no disturbing effects are visible on the screen. 10-4 Insertion of the measurement pulses and their evaluation is sequential; this means that from the measuring resistor through the measurement input and leakage current storage up to and including the comparator circuit, these circuits only have to be realized once and are used for all three channels. Figure 4 shows the time positions of the various measurement pulse insertions and evaluations. The measurement pulses are after the vertical flyback pulse and are thus above the upper picture edge in the overscan. The R, G, B signals are blanked up to the inserted measurement pulses. The leakage current of all channels is measured in the line before the first measurement pulse. This is followed by the measurement pulses and their evaluation in the sequence red, green, blue. A comprehensive application diagram with the video combination TDA3S0S and the video final stages is shown in Figure S. For two sets of external RG B inputs and larger video input bandwidth, the TDA4S80 can be used In place of the TDA3S0S (see Figure 6).

Position of the Measuring Lines of the Video Combination TDA3505 The Color Transient Improvement IC - TDA4565 A complete multi-standard decoder can be built with the two ICs described above. A third IC, which can be interconnected in the color difference interface, can be used for color picture improvements by means of transient improvement of the color difference signals. In Figure 7, the signal characteristics a) and b) show a transient in the Y and color difference signal. The rise time of the color February 1987 difference signal is longer, corresponding to the smaller bandwidth. A delay line in the Y channel coordinates the centers of the transients as shown in Figure 7c. 7d. It is now clear that - as shown in Figure 7e - a correspondingly longer delay is necessary for the Y signal in order to achieve coincidence of the transients. In deviation from the previous signal processing, with the Color Transient Improvement IC, the color difference transient does Dot occur until the input signal transient is finished, but then occurs with a steepness corresponding to that of the Y signal. The characteristic of this color difference signal is shown in Figure Color signal transmiSSions, especially of test pictures coming via this CTI circuit, appear on the screen with the same color definition as RGB transmissions. 10-5 Figure 8 gives an explanation of the CTI function: the simplified circuits are shown on the left and the signals occurring at these are • Application Note Signetics Linear Products Multi-Standard Color Decoder With Picture Improvement AN155A SIGNALS TO CATHODES OF CRT -11--------- -0 - - - --------'ii""-- RC! 1.8K I I r-J I II I I ~-I I I I PEAK BEAM CURRENT ILIMmNG 330nF ..c-l 4 c• I ';"RQ2 5 Bo 180 I 22,F 22,H Vp-12V I SANDCASlU!- I 5 +Up VPI-200V 1 ~ ~ r I Wa 22 w.

Y-delay Time for CD Signals With and Without Transient Improvement shown on the right. Part" A" shows a color difference input signal with a fast positive transient corresponding to the maximum bandwidth of the color difference signal. The subsequent negative signal characteristics are slower. In this circuit, the input signal is supplied after an impedance transformer via a switch and a further impedance transformer to the output. A storage capacitor is connected between the switch and the output impedance transformer, and is charged by the input impedance transformer in accordance with the signal characteristic. Processing of the switching signal is affected by differentiation of the color difference signal, followed by full-wave rectification. Figure February 1987 Bb shows the signals obtained in this way, which are supplied to a comparator via a high-pass filter. A diode at the high-pass filter reduces the charge reversal time and, thus, the dead time for generation of a switching signal for transients following in rapid succession. A comparator with threshold voltage generates a switching voltage as shown in Figure Bd from the signal of Bc when the threshold voltage is exceeded, and this triggers the switch. The switch is thus opened at the beginning of a transient and the voltage is maintained by the storage capacitor at the time before the transient. After completion of a fast transient, the switch is closed and the capacitor's charge is changed in approximately 150ns to the voltage after the tran- 10-7 sient. The effect of a slower transient characteristic is shown in the second part of the signal in Figure Bc. Only a small part is' affected. For even slower characteristics, the differential quotient is so small that the threshold voltage is no longer exceeded and there is no effect on the signal. Thus, for the most part, only transients having a steepness approaching the system limit are improved, whereas slower signal characteristics remain unchanged. Figure 10 shows the entire block diagram with external circuitry of the eTI Ie. The lower eTI section affects signal processing for the two color difference signals in parallel circuits, as already described. Only Signetics Uneer Products Application Note Multi-Standard Color Decoder With Picture Improvement one switching signal forming stage is incorporated, and this is triggered by the differentiating stage of the two channels. Thus, the signal switches will always work in parallel, so that transient improvement is also parallel in the two channels. The transient-improved color difference signals require a longer Y signal delay line with a delay time of up to j OOOns, which is additionally realized in thislC in gyrator tec/lnique. A selection capability has been incorporated for the delay time, by means of a switching I STDRAGE CAPACITOR voltage, since the total required delay time is dependent on the overall television receiver concept. The delay line comprises a total of 11 gyrator all-pass elements with a delay time of 90ns each, making a total of 990ns. The group delay and frequency behavior of the gyrator delay line is very good up to 5MHz. A switching stage permits optional by-pass of one, two, or three of these elements, so that a minimum of B X 90ns = 720ns is effective. The transient improvement of the color difference signal makes coincidence errors with CD-OUTPUT SIGNAL TRANSIENT IMPROVED Figure 8_ Function of CTI February 19B7 10-8 AN 155A respect to the Y signal especially visible. A slight increase in delay time by 45n8 has therefore been provided for fine tuning, working via an IC pin to be connected to ground. A signal tapping is available before the last delay element for a further picture improvement capability by means of deflection modulation. Figure 11 depicts the circuit diagram of the TDA4565.

If the reference frequency is adjusted in this way, it results into a frequency deviation of about 1kHz when removing the 12V connection at the saturation control input. So this frequency adjustment of the oscillator of the TDA3563, N6 cannot be used. Therefore an alternative adjustment procedure is developed: The X-tal has now a fixed capacitor of 12pF in series to ground, instead of the trimmer capacitor. The frequency adjustment is done via current injection into the burst phase detector (Pin 24). The reference oscillator is made free-running by removing the burst information out of the chrominance signal.

These signal amplijudes are determined by the ACC circuit of the reference part. 8. When Pin 18 is open circuit, the phase shift between the (R-Y) and (B-Y) reference carrier is 115·. This phase shift can be varied by changing the voltage applied to Pin 18. 9. If the typical voltage for this wMe level is exceeded, the output voltage is reduced by discharging the capaCitor at Pin 7 (contrast control); discharge current is I.SmA. FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION Luminance Amplifier The luminance amplifier is voltage driven and requires an input signal of 450mVp_p (positive video). The luminance delay line must be connected between the IF amplifier and the decoder. The input signal is AC-coupled to the input (Pin 9). January 14, 1987 The black level at the output of the preamplifier is clamped to a fixed DC level by the black level clamping circuit. The high input impedance of the luminance amplifier minimizes disturbance of the input signal black level by the source impedance (delay line matching resistors). During clamping, the low-input impedance reduces noise and residual signals. After 10-42 clamping, the signal is fed to a peaking stage. The overshoot is defined by the capacitor connected to Pin 10 and the peaking is adjusted by the control voltage at Pin 11. The peaking stage is followed by a contrast control stage. The contrast control voltage range (Pin 7) is nominally-17to +3dB. The linear relationship between the contrast-control voltage and the gain is shown in Figure 1. Signetics Unear Products Product Specification TDA3564 NTSC Decoder Chrominance Amplifier The chrominance amplifier has an asymmetrical input. The input signal must be ACcoupled (Pin 3) and have a minimum amplitude of SSmVp_p. The gain control stage has a control range in excess of 30dB, the maximum input signal must not exceed 1.1Vp_p, otherwise clipping of the input signal will occur. From the gain control stage the chrominance Signal is fed to the saturation and contrast control stages. Chrominance and luminance contrast control stages are directly coupled to obtain good tracking. Saturation is linearly controlled via Pin 6 (see Figure 2). The control voltage range is 2V to 4V, the input impedance is High, and the saturation control range is in excess of SOdB. The burst signal is not affected by saturation control. The output signal at Pin 24 is AC coupled to the demodulators via Pin 17. Oscillator and ACC Detector The 7.16MHz reference oscillator operates at twice the subcarrier frequency. The reference signals for the (R-Y) and (B-Y) demodulators, burst-phase detector, and ACC detector are obtained via the divide-by-2 circuit, which provides a 90· phase shift The oscillator is controlled by the burst phase detector, which is gated with the narrow part of the sandcastie pulse (Pin 8). As the burst phase detector has an asymmetrical output, the oscillator can be adjusted by changing the voltage of the output (Pin 21) via a high-ohmic resistor. The capacitor in series with the oscillator crystal must then have a fixed value. When Pin 6 (saturation control) is connected to the positive supply line, the burst signal is suppressed and the color killer is overruled. This position can therefore be used for adjustment of the oscillator. The adjustment is visible on the screen. January 14, 1987 The hue control is obtained by changing the phase of the input Signal of the burst phase detector with respect to the chrominance signal applied to the demodulators. This phase shift is obtained by generating a 90· shifted sine wave via a Miller integrator (biased via Pin 19) which is mixed with the original burst signal. A control circuit is required in the 90· phase shift circuit to make the chrominance voltage independent of the hue setting. The control circuit is decoupled by· a capacitor connected to Pin 5. As the shifted burst signal is synchronously demodulated in a separate ACC detector to generate the ACC voltage, it is not affected by the hue control. The output pulses of this detector are peak detected (Pin 4) to control the gain of the chrominance amplifier, thus preventing blooming-up of the color during weak signal reception. This ensures reliable operation of the color killer. During color killing, the color channel is blOCked by switching off saturation control and the demodulators. Demodulators The (R-Y) and (B-Y) demodulators are driven by the chrominance signal (Pin 24) and the reference signals from the 7.16MHz divider circuit. The phase angle between the two reference carriers is 115·. This is achieved by the (R-Y) demodulator receiving an additional phase shift by mixing the two signals from the divider circuit. The phase shift of 115· can be varied between 90· and 140· by changing the bias voltage at Pin 18. The demodulator output signals are fed to Rand B matrix circuits and to the (G-Y) matrix to provide the (G-Y) Signal which is applied to the G matrix. The demodulator circuits are killed and blanked by bypassing the input signals. 10-43 RGB Matrix and Amplifiers The three matrix and amplifier circuits are identical and only one circuit will be described. The luminance and the color difference signals are added in the matrix circuit to obtain the color signal. Output signals are SVp.p (black-white) for the following nominal input signals and control settings. • Luminance 450mVp.p • Chrominance 5S0mVp.p (burst-tochrominance ratio of the input 1:2, 2) • Contrast -3dB maximum • Saturation -6dB maximum The maximum output voltage is approximately 7Vp.p. The black level of the blue channel is compared to a variable external reference level (Pin 12) which provides brightness control. The brightness control range is 1V to 3.2V (see Figure 3). The control voltage is stored in a capacitor (connected to Pin 16) and controls the black level at the output (Pin 15) between 2V and 4V, via a change of the level of the luminance signal before matrixing. NOTE: Black levels of up to approximately 6V are possible, but amplitude of the output signal is reduced to 3Vp.p. If the output signal surpasses the level of 9V, the peak white limiter circuit becomes active and reduces the output signal via the contrast control. Blanking of RGB Signals The RGB Signals can be blanked via the sandcastle input (Pin 8). A slicing level of 1.5V is used for this blanking function, so that the wide part of the sandcastle pulse is separated from the remainder of the pulse. During blanking, a level of + 2V is available at the output. • Signetics Linear Products Product Specification NTSC Decoder TDA3564 100 100 Ir. r/I 17 'Ii I I I 1/1. 'U! 'ti ;f!

Cross coupling is measured under the following condition: input signal nominal, contrast and saturation such that nominal output signals are obtained. The signals at the output at which no signal should be available must be compared with the nominal output signal at that outpu\. 5. The signal-to-noise ratio is defined as peak-to-peak signal with respect to RMS noise. 6. All frequency variations are referred to 4.4MHz carrier frequency. 7. These signal amplitudes are determined by the ACC circuit of the reference part. 8. The demodulators are driven by a chrominance signal of equal amplitude for the (R-Y) and the (B-Y) components. The phase of the (R-Y) chrominance signal equals the phase of the (R-Y) reference signal. This also applies to the (B-Y) signals. 9. This value depends on the gain setting of the RGB output amplifiers and the drift of the picture tube guns. Higher black level values are possible (up to 5V), but in that application the amplitude of the output signal Is reduced. 10. The variation of the black-level during brightness control in the three different channels is direclly dependent on the gain of each channel. Discoloration during adjustment of contrast and brightness does not occur because amplitude and the black-level change with brightness control are directly related. 11. This difference occurs when the source impedance of the data signals is 150!"! and the black level clamp pulse width is 41's (sandcaslle pulse). For a lower impedance the difference will be lower. 12. The voltage at Pins 24 and 25 can be changed by connecting the load resistors (10k!"! in this application) to the slider bar of the hue control potentiometer (see Figure 7). When the transistor is switched on, the voltage at Pins 24 and 25 is reduced below 9V, and the circuit is switched to NTSC mode. The width of the bUrst gate is assumed to be 4,.. typical. • February 12, 19B7 10-53 Signetics Linear Products Product Specification PAl/NTSC Decoder With RGB Inputs FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION The TDA3566 is a further development of the TDA3562A. It has the same pinning and almost the same application. The differences between the TDA3562A and the TDA3566 are as follows: • The NTSC application has largely been simplified. In the case of NTSC, the chroma signal is now internally coupled to the demodulators, ACC, and phase detectors. The chroma output signal (Pin 28) is suppressed in this case. It follows that the external switches and filters which are needed for the TDA3562A are not needed for the TDA3566. Furthermore, there is no difference between the ampl~ude of the color output signals in the PAL or NTSC mode. The PALINTSC switch and the hue control of the TDA3566 and the TDA3562A are identical. • The switch-on and the switch-off behavior of the TDA3566 has been improved. This has been obtained by suppressing the output signals during the switch-on and switch-off periods. • The clamp capacitors connected to the Pins 10, 20, and 21 can be reduced to 100nF for the TDA3566. The clamp capacitors also receive a pre-bias voltage to avoid colored background during switchon. • The crystal oscillator circuit has been changed to prevent parasitic oscillations on the third overtone of the crystal. This has the consequence that optimal tuning capacitance must be reduced to 10pF. Luminance Amplifier The luminance amplifier is voltage driven and requires an input signal of 450mV peak-topeak (positive video). The luminance delay line must be connected between the IF amplifier and the decoder. The input signal is AC coupled to the input (Pin 8). After emplification, the black level at the output of the preamplifier is clamped to a fixed DC level by the black clamping circuit. During three line periods after vertical blanking, the luminance signal is blanked out and the black level reference voltage is Inserted by a switching circuit. This black level reference voltage is controlled via Pin 11 (brightness). At the same time, the RGB signals are clamped. Noise and residual signals have no influence during clamping; thus, simple internal clamping circuitry is used. Chrominance Amplifiers The chrominance amplifier has an asymmetrical input. The input signal must be AC coupled (Pin 4) and have a minimum amplitude of 40mVp.p. The gain control stage has a control range in excess of 30dB; the maximum input Signal must not exceed 1.1 Vp.p or clipping of the input signal will occur. From February 12, 1987 the gain-control stage, the chrominance signal is fed to the saturation control stage. Saturation is linear controlled via Pin 5. The control voltage range is 2 to 4V, the input impedance is high, and the saturation control range is in excess of 50dB. The burst signal is not affected by saturation control. The signal is then fed to a gated amplifier which has a 12dB higher gain during the chrominance signal. As a result, the Signal at the output (Pin 28) has a burst-to-chrominance ratio which is 6dB lower than that of the input signal when the saturation control is set at -6dB. The chrominance output signal is fed to the delay line and, after matrixing, is applied to the demodulator input pins (Pins 22 and 23). These signals are fed to the burst phase detector. In the case of NTSC, the chroma signal is internally coupled to the demodulators, ACC, and phase detector. Oscillator and Identification Circuit The burst phase detector is gated with the narrow part of the sandcastle pulse (Pin 7). In the detector, the (R-V) and (B-V) signals are added to provide the compos~e burst signal again. This composite signal is compared to the oscillator signal divided-by-2 «R-V) reference signal). The control voltage is available at Pins 24 and 25, and is also applied to the 8.8MHz oscillator. The 4.4MHz signal is obtained via the divide-by-2 circuit, which generates both the (B-V) and (R-V) reference signals and provides a 90' phase shift between them. The flip-flop is driven by pulses obtained from the sandcastle detector. For the identification of the phase at PAL mode, the (R-V) reference signal coming from the PAL switch is compared to the vertical signal (R-V) of the PAL delay line. This is carried out in the H/2 detector, which is gated during burst. When the phase is incorrect, the flip-flop gets a reset from the identification circuit. When the phase is correct, the output voltage of the HI 2 detector is directly related to the burst amplitude so that this voltage can be used for the ACC. To avoid 'blooming-up' of the picture under weak input signal conditions, the ACC voltage is generated by peak detection of the H/2 detector output signal. The killer and identification circuits get their information from a gated output signal of the H/2 detector. Killing is obtained via the saturation control stage and the demodulators to obtain good suppression. The time constant of the saturation control (Pin 5) provides a delayed sw~ch-on after killing. Adjustment of the oscillator is achieved by variation of the burst phase detector load resistance between Pins 24 and 25 (see Figure 6). W~h this application, the trimmer capacitor in series with the 8.8MHz crystal 10-54 TDA3566 (Pin 26) can be replaced by a fixed value capacitor to compensate for imbalance of the phase detector. Demodulator The (R-V) and (B-Y) demodulators are driven by the color difference signals from the delayline matrix circuit and the reference signals from the 8.8MHz divider circuii. The (R-Y) reference signal is fed via the PAL-switch. The output signals are fed to the Rand B matrix circuits and to the (G-Y) matrix to provide the (G-V) Signal which is applied to the G matrix. The demodulation circuits are killed and blanked by bypassing the input Signals. NTSC Mode The NTSC mode is switched on when the voltage at the burst phase detector outputs (Pins 24 and 25) is adjusted below 9V. To ensure reliable application, the phase detector load resistors are external. When the TDA3566 Is used only for PAL, these two 33kn resistors must be connected to + 12V (see Figure 6). For PALINTSC application, the value of each resistor must be reduced to 10kn and connected to the slider of a potentiometer (see Figure 7). The switching transistor brings the voltage at Pins 24 and 25 below 9V, which switches the circuit to the NTSC mode. The position of the PAL flip-flop ensures that the correct phase of the (R-Y) reference signal is supplied to the (R-V) demodulator. The drive to the H/2 detector is now provided by the (B-V) reference signal. (In the PAL mode it is driven by the (R-V) reference signal.) Hue control is realized by changing the phase of the reference drive to the burst phase detector. This is achieved by varying the voltage at Pins 24 and 25 between 7.5V and 8.5V, nominal pos~ion 8.0V. The hue control characteristic is shown in Figure 4. RGB Matrix and Amplifiers The three matrix and amplifier circuits are identical and only one circuit will be described. The luminance and the color difference signals are added in the matrix circuit to obtain the color signal, which is then fed to the contrast control stage. The contrast control voltage is supplied to Pin 6 (high-input impedance). The control range is + 3dB to -17dB nominal. The relationship between the control voltage and the gain is linear (see Figure 1). During the 3-line period after blanking, a pulse is inserted at the output of the contrast control stage. The amplitude of this pulse is varied by a control voltage at Pin 11. This applies a variable offset to the normal black level, thus providing brightness control. The brightness control range is 1V to 3V. Product Specification Signetics Linear Products TDA3566 PALjNTSC Decoder With RGB Inputs While this offset level is present, the 'blackcurrent' input impedance (Pin 18) is high and the internal clamp circuit is activated. The clamp circuit then compares the reference voltage at Pin 19 with the voltage developed across the external resistor network RA and Rs (Pin 18) which is provided by picture tube beam current. The output of the comparator is stored in capacitors connected from Pins 10, 20, and 21 to ground, which controls the black level at the output. The reference voltage is composed by the resistor divider network and the leakage current of the picture tube into this bleeder. During vertical blanking, this voltage is stored in the capacitor connected to Pin 19, which ensures that the leakage current of the CRT does not influence the black current measurement. beam current stabilizer is not used, it is possible to stabilize the black levels at the outputs, which in this application must be connected to the black current measuring input (Pin 18) via a resistor network. Data Insertion Each color amplifier has a separate input for data insertion. A 1Vp_p input signal provides a 4Vp_p output signal. To avoid the 'black-level' of the inserted signal differing from the black level of the normal video signal, the data is clamped to the black level of the luminance signal. Therefore, AC coupling is required for the data inputs. To avoid a disturbance of the blanking level due to the clamping circuit, the source impedance of the driver circuit must not exceed 150n. The RGB output signals can never exceed a level of 10V. When the signal tends to exceed this level, the output signal is clipped. The black level at the outputs (Pins 13, 15, and 17) will be about 3V. This level depends on the spread of the guns of the picture tube. If a 100 J The data insertion circuit is activated by the data blanking input (Pin 9). When the voltage at this pin exceeds a level of 0.9V, the RGB matrix circuits are switched off and the data amplifiers are switched on. To avoid colored edges, the data blanking switching time is short. The amplitude of the data output signals is controlled by the contrast control at Pin 6. The black level is equal to the video black level and can be varied between 2 and 4V (nominal condition) by the brightness control voltage at Pin 11. Non-synchronized data signals do not disturb the black level of the internal signals. Blanking of RGB and Data Signals Both the RGB and data signals can be blanked via the sandcastie input (Pin 7). A slicing level of 1.5V is used for this blanking function, so that the wide part of the sandcastie pulse is separated from the remainder of the pulse. During blanking, a level of + 1V is available at the output. To prevent parasitic oscillations on the third overtone of the crystal, the optimal tuning capacitance should be 10pF. 100 /)~' ~/, '(I, Ifi IfII I 'I; IiI rlf fi /, ;/.1 I'l /, I - o r-' r--' ,-- .'" o v._ .'I, '/ o 3 27 VS_ 27 (V) M Figure 1.

Nominal contrast is specified as maximum contrast -3d8 and nominal saturation as maximum saturation -10dB. 4. Cross-coupling is measured under the following conditions: • input Signals nominal • contrast and saturation such that nominal output signals are obtained • the signals at the output at which no signal should be available must be compared with the nominal output signal at that output. 5. The signal-te-noise ratio is specified as peak-ta-peak signal with respect to RMS noise. 6. When this level is exceeded, the amplifier of the output signal is reduced via a discharge of the capacitor on Pin 7 (contrast control). Discharge current is 5.SmA. 7. These matrixed values are found by measuring the ratio of the various output signals. The values are derived from the matrix equations given in the section 'FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION'. February 12, 1987 10-64 Signetics Linear Products Product Specification NTSC Color Decoder FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION Luminance Amplifier The luminance amplifier is voltage driven and requires an input signal of 450mVp.p 1. The luminance delay line must be connected between the IF amplifier and the decoder. The input signal must be AC coupled to the input Pin 8. The black level clamp circuit of the RGB amplifiers uses the coupling capacitor as a storage capacitor. After clamping, the signal is fed to a peaking stage. The RC network connected to Pin 13 is used to define the amount of overshoot. The peaking stage is followed by a contrast control stage. The control voltage has to be supplied to Pin 6. The control voltage range is nominally -17 to + 3dB. The linear curve of the contrast control voltage is shown in Figure 1. Chrominance Amplifier TDA3567 the small spreads of the IC. The free-running frequency of the oscillator can be checked by connecting the saturation control (Pin 5) to the positive supply line. Then the loop is opened so that the frequency can be measured. The oscillator has an internal gainlimiting stage which controls the gain to unity, so that internal signals are sinusoidal. This prevents the generation of higher harmonics of the subcarrier signals. The burst signal is compared to a O· reference signal by the burst amplitude detector, and is then amplified and fed to a peak detector for ACC and to a sample-and·hold circuit which drives the color-killer circuit. The reference signal for the burst phase detector is provided by the 90· phase·shifted signal. An RC network is used to obtain the required catching range and noise immunity for the output voltage of the burst phase detector. The hue control is obtained by mixing oscillator signals with a phase of O· and 90· before they are fed to the (R-Y) and (B-Y) demodulators. The 90· phase-shifted signal is provided by a Miller integrator (biased by Pin 18). As the hue control is independent of the PLL, the control will react without time delay on the control voltage changes. The chrominance amplifier has an asymmetrical input. The input signal at Pin 3 must be AC coupled, and must have an amplitude of 550mVp.p. The gain control stage has a control range in excess of 30dB, the maximum input signal should not exceed 1.1Vp_p, otherwise clipping of the input signal will occur. From the gain control stage, the chrominance signal is fed to the saturation and contrast control stages. Chrominance and luminance control stages are directly coupled to obtain good tracking. The saturation is linearly controlled via Pin 5. The control voltage range is 2V to 4V. The impedance is high and the saturation control range is in excess of 50dB. The burst signal is not affected by contrast or saturation control. After the amplification and control stages, the chrominance signal is internally fed to the (RY) and (B-Y) demodulators, burst phase, and ACC detectors. The demodulators are driven by the amplified and controlled chrominance signals; the reference signals are obtained from the hue control circuit. In nominal hue control position, the phase angle of (R-Y) reference signal is 0·; the phase angle of the (B·Y) reference signal is 90·. OSCillator and ACC Circuit (B-Y)matrixed = (B-Y)IN The 3.58MHz reference oscillator operates at the subcarrier frequency. The crystal must be connected between Pin 16 and ground. The oscillator does not require adjustment due to Demodulator Circuits For flesh-tone corrections, the demodulated (R-Y) signal is matrixed with the demodulated (B·Y) signal according to the following equations: (R-Y)matrixed = 1.61 (R-Y)IN-0.42 (B-Y)IN (G-Y)matrixed = 0.43 (R-Y)IN -0.11 (B·Y)IN NOTE: 1. Signal with negative-going sync; amplitude includes sync pulse amplitude. February 12, 1987 10-65 In these equations (R-Y)IN and (B-Y)IN indicate the color difference signal amplitudes when the chrominance signal is demodulated with a phase difference between the R-Y and B-Y demodulator of 90· and a gain ratio B-YI R-Y= 1.78. RGB Matrix Circuit and Amplifiers The three matrix and amplifier circuits are identical. The luminance signal and the color difference signals are added in the matrix circuit to obtain the color signal. Output signals are 5Vp.p (black-white) for the following nominal input signals and control settings: • Luminance 450mVp.p • Chrominance 550mVp.p (burst-tochrominance ratio of the input 1:2.2) • Contrast -3dB (maximum) • Saturation -10dB (maximum) The maximum available output voltage is approximately 7Vp.p. The black level of the red channel is compared to a variable external reference level (Pin 9), which provides the brightness control. The control loop is closed via the luminance input. The luminance input is varied to control the black level control; therefore, the green and blue outputs will follow any variation of the red output. The output of the black control can be varied between 2V to 4V. The corresponding brightness control voltage is shown in Figure 3. If the output signal surpasses the level of 9V, the peak white limiter circuit becomes active and reduces the output signal via the contrast control. Blanking of RGB Signals A slicing level of about 1.5V is used for this blanking function, so that the wide part of the sandcastle pulse is separated from the rest of the pulse. During blanking, a level of + 2V is available at the output. • Signetics Linear Products Product Speclflcotlon NTSC Color Decoder TDA3567 100 'I, ~ ,IfJ 50 'f· -' / j, ~ " 100 I.r;r l'l.

AppllcaUon DIagram ~ AN1551 Signetics Single-Chip Multistandard Color Decoder TDA4555/ TDA4556 Linear Products Application Note In areas where 1V transmissions to more than one color standard can be received, color receivers are required which can handle multistandard transmissions without additional manual switching. This requirement will greatly increase with the introduction of satellite 1V. difference Signals -(R-Y) and -(B-Y) and the luminance signal (Y) into the RGB signals. The TDA3505 also incorporates the saturation, contrast, and brightness control circuits and allows for the insertion of external RGB signals. Finally, the processed video signals are applied, via the RGB output stage, to the picture tube. a common chassis. Automatic selection of the required standard has been made more reliable and the maximum time required for identification and switching is a little over half a second. When reception is difficult because signals are weak, noisy, or badly distorted, the automatic standard recognition (ASR) can be switched off and the standard chosen manually. Such receivers have, in the past, incorporated a multi standard color decoder (MSD) using several integrated circuits to automatically select the standard of the received signal. However, the growing need for these MSDs makes it economically and technically desirable to incorporate all the active parts in one IC and to reduce, as far as possible, the external circuitry. The new MSD can decode color 1V signals transmitted according to the following standards: Although the ICs are capable of processing multi standard signals, their performance is as high as that for single-standard decoders. 1. NTSC standards with any color subcarrier frequency, for example: - NTSC-M (fa = 3.579545MHz), referred to as NTSC-3.5. Figure 1 is a block diagram of a typical multi standard color decoder incorporating the TDA4555. This publication describes two new singlechip MSDs using bipolar technology, the TDA4555 and TDA4556. The ICs are similar except for the polarity of the color difference signals at the output. The TDA4555 provides -(R-Y) and -(B-Y) signals; the TDA4556 provides + (R-Y) and + (B-Y) signals. Only the TDA4555 will be described. - Non-standard NTSC systems, for example with fa = fOPAl = 4.43361 MHz. This is a de facto standard used for VCR signals in some European communities and the Middle East, and is referred to as NTSC 4.43. As the color subcarrier frequency is the same as that of the normal PAL system, the same crystal can be used without switching in the reference oscillator for both systems. The composite video input signal (CVBS) is fed via switchable filters to the input of the MSD. The filters separate the chrominance and luminance Signals according to the standard selected and are controlled by the ASR circuit within the TDA4555. Since all the active parts of the MSD are in a single IC, the design and layout of the printed circuit board is considerably simplified and assembly cost is reduced. The greater reliability of "wiring on silicon" increases the overall reliability of the decoder and reduction of external circuitry simplifies assembly. Chrominance signals from the filters are AC coupled to the input of the TDA4555, which produces the color difference outputs that are, in turn, AC coupled to the Color Transient Improvement (CTI) TDA4565. This IC also contains an adjustable luminance delay-line (Y) formed by gyrators, so a conventional wirewound delay line is not needed. The ICs are universally applicable and allow the design of a range of 1V receivers having The signals are then fed to the Video Combination IC, TDA3505, which converts the color RGB - 2.

The frequency of the color signals may vary between 3.900MHz and 4.756MHz. The frequencies of the color subcarriers are: fOB = 4.250MHz for a "blue line" fOR = 4.40625MHz for a "red line". With these capabilities, the new decoders can handle most of the color TV transmissions used in the world. DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS To minimize the number of integrated components and reduce the required crystal area and power dissipation of the MSD, the same sections of the IC are used, where possible, for several standards. For example: • the gain-controlled input stages • the common switching pulse generators • the PAL and NTSC quadrature demodulators and oscillators • the PAL and SECAM delay line • the common driver stage preceding the delay lines • part of the stage following the delay line and the demodulator The number of connections are kept to a minimum compatible with the required functions. With the new ICs, the reference oscillator, its filter, and the SECAM identification circuit, each require only a single pin. The sandcastle pulse is the only external pulse signal. These, and other measures, allow the TDA4555 chip to be housed in a 28-lead SO-117 encapsulation, despite the many functions it performs. There are three alternative approaches to multi-standard color decoder design. 1. Separate parallel-connected decoders for each standard with the appropriate output selected by switching. This is the principle used in the three-standard decoder comprised of the TDA3510 for PAL, TDA3520 for SECAM, and TDA3570 for NTSC. The color ON/OFF switch voltages generated in each decoder are used for automatic switching of the standards, and each decoder has to be kept at least partially activated. 2. A single PAL decoder can be switched to handle NTSC signals. SECAM signals are converted into quasi-PAL signals by a SECAM-PAL transcoder. The PAL decoder derives the color-difference signals from this quasi-PAL signal. An example of this approach is the circuit using the single-chip PAL decoder TDA3562A with NTSC option and one of the SECAM circuits, TDA3590, TDA3590A, or TDA3591. 3. The methods described in 1 and 2 are not suited to a single-chip MSD because February 1987 AN1551 the multiple use of circuit blocks is limited. A much better usage can be obtained if the standards are scanned sequentially. In this approach, the decoder circuit, including the filters at the input, is switched to decode each standard in turn. The switching continues until the standard recognition circuit (SRC) indicates that the standard of the received signal corresponds to the standard of decoding selected at that moment. The scanning procedure is restarted if the standard of the input signal changes because of tuning to another transmitter or switching to an external signal source. The same thing applie~ if the signal temporarily becomes too weak or disappears. A major advantage of sequential standard switching is that it allows the complete decoder, including the external filters at its input, to be optimized for each standard. This is why the TDA4555 and TDA4556 are designed in this manner. TDA4555 CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION Figure 2 is the circuit of a multi standard color decoder using TDA4555/TDA4556. Pulse Generation The IC only requires a single sandcastle pulse at Pin 24 for the generation of all internal pulses (e.g., burst key, horizontal, and vertical blanking pulses). The sandcastle pulse levels are > 8V for the burst key, 4.5V for horizontal blanking, and 2.5V for vertical blanking. Level detectors in the sandcastle pulse detector separate the three levels which are used to generate the required key pulse and clamp pulses. Standard Control Circuit A special System Control and Standard Scanning circuit (SCSS) provides the 4 switching voltages to set the MSD to the desired standard. As long as no color standard is recognized, the SCSS circuit switches the decoder sequentially to the PAL, SECAM, NTSC-3.58 and NTSC-4.43 standards. If the standard of the received signal is not recognized after four field periods (80ms), the next decoding system is activated. This time interval, also called the standard scanning period, is a good compromise between fast switch-on of the color, and effective interference suppression with noisy signals. The maximum time between the start of scanning and switching on the color is 360ms, including the color switch-on delay of two field periods. However, in the TDA4555, a PAL priority circuit is incorporated to improve the reliability for 10-74 SECAM, so the scanning can last for another two scanning periods (520ms maximum). After recognition of a SECAM signal, the information is stored and the decoding is switched to PAL. A second SECAM recognition is only provided if no PAL recognition occurs. This gives reliable SECAM recognition when the SECAM-PAL transcoding at the source (e.g., in cable systems) is not perfect, or when PAL signals are distorted by reflections so that they simulate SECAM signals. With b/w signals, the scanning is continuous and the color is kept switched off because there is no standard recognition. The switching voltage corresponding to the recognized standard ramps from 2.5V to 6V during scanning while the remaining switching voltages are held at O.5V maximum. These 4 voltages are used to switch the filters at the inputs, the crystals of the reference oscillators, and the color subcarrier traps, and also to indicate the recognized standard (e.g., by LEDs). To prevent unnecessary restarting of scanning because of momentary disturbances (e.g., short-term interruptions of the color signal), the TDA4555 incorporates a delay of two field periods (40ms) before scanning can start. Finally, the IC allows the automatic standard recognition (ASR) to be switched off by forcing one of the decoding modes by applying at least 9V to Pin 28 for PAL; Pin 27 for SECAM; Pin 26 for NTSC-3.58; and Pin 25 for NTSC4.43. These pins also serve as outputs for the internally-generated switch voltages which indicate the selected standard. Color Signal Control The MSD must provide color-difference output signals with an amplitude referred to a given test signal, despite amplitude variations (within limits) of the color input Signal. This is required to maintain a fixed amplitude relationship between the luminance signal (Y) and the color-difference signals, independent of different IF filters or receiver detuning. The TDA4555/56 incorporates an Automatic Color Control circuit (ACC) for this purpose. In the case of PAL and NTSC, the reference for the control is the burst amplitude. For SECAM, the complete color signal is used. The color signal is AC-coupled, via Pin 15, to a gain-controlled amplifier and the control voltage is obtained by in-phase synchronous demodulation of the burst or the color Signal. This approach has the advantage that the same demodulator, having only one external capacitor at Pin 16, can be used for all standards and also results in noise reduction with noisy signals. Unwanted increase of saturation with noisy signals (color bright-up Signetics Linear Products Application Note Single-Chip Multistandard Color Decoder TDA4555/TDA4556 effect) is prevented without an extra peak detector being required. In-phase synchronous demodulation has the advantage that it is independent of synchronization and the state of the decoder, so the color gain can settle quickly and the color standard scanning period is therefore short. Special low-distortion symmetrical circuits were chosen for the gain-control stage and the following amplifier stage so that H/2 components in the color-difference channel are reduced as far as possible during SECAM reception. Biasing of the color gain-control stage is stabilized by a DC feedback loop decoupled by an external capacitor at Pin 14. The nominal amplitude of the color input signal at Pin 15 is 1OOmVp_p for a 75% colorbar signal. It may vary between 10mVp.p and 200mVp.p. This range is chosen so that, for a normal 1Vp_p composite video signal at the input to the filters, transformation is not required. For PAL and NTSC decoding, the amplitudecontrolled color signal, including its burst, is then fed to the SRC, reference generation, and burst blanking stages. The output of the latter stage is applied to the color signal demodulators and the delay-line driver stage. Standard Recognition Circuit The SRC tells the SCSS whether the activated decoding mode is the same as that of the incoming signal. This task is performed using the signals occurring during the back porch of horizontal blanking. For SECAM, it is necessary to distinguish between line (H) identification signals of carrier frequency at the back porch and field (V) identification (special lines carrying identification signals during the field blanking period). The standard recognition comprises the following parts: a phase discriminator which compares the burst phase of PAL and NTSC signals with the internal reference signal, a frequency discriminator for generating an H/2 signal during SECAM reception, an H/2 demodulator for PAL and SECAM signals, and the logic circuits for the final recognition. The two phase discriminators for PAL and NTSC signals are supplied with the color signal, and the amplitude-controlled burst. The phase detector for the PAL signals uses the (R-Y) reference signal for the phase comparison; the NTSC phase detector uses the (B-Y) reference signal. Both reference signals are generated by dividing the reference oscillator output. When the correct signals are received, the phase discriminators output the demodulated burst signal for standard recognition. The discriminator for generating the H/2 signal comprises an internal phase discrimiFebruary 1987 AN1551 nator and an external phase-shift circuit, known as the SECAM identification reference, connected to Pin 22. The polarity of the PAL and SECAM phase discriminator output signals is reversed line-sequentially. With PAL, this is caused by a change of phase of the burst at linefrequency. With SECAM, it is the result of the color subcarrier frequency changing at line frequency. Since the signal is changing polarity, it is of no use for the following circuitry. Therefore, the discriminator output signals are fed to the H/2 demodulator which line-sequentially reverses the signal polarity. The pulses are then integrated by external capacitors connected to Pin 21 (PAL and SECAM discriminator output) and to Pin 20 (NTSC phase discriminator output). The voltages on these capacitors are the identification signals which are used by the comparator and logic circuits to derive the control signals. They are dependent on the standard of the incoming signal and on the activated decoding standard and are composed of an internal biasing at half the supply voltage (6V) and a contribution from the identification signal. In the following explanation, only the latter part tJ.V20 and tJ.V21 is considered. a. When the decoder is set to PAL, the frequency of the reference signal is about 4.43MHz. The NTSC discriminator is switched off and the voltage at C20 is only the bias voltage. The H/2 demodulator is therefore driven by the output of the PAL discriminator. The output of the SECAM discriminator is not used. With a PAL signal at the input, the H/2 demodulator delivers pulses with equal polarity so that capacitor C21 is charged to tJ.V 21 if the reference oscillator is correctly locked. With an NTSC-4.43 input signal, the H/2 modulator provides no pulses or, in case of phase faults, small pulses with a linesequentially changing polarity. The latter is caused by the constant burst phase of NTSC signals which is line-sequentially reversed by the H/2 demodulator. The average charge current of C21 is, therefore, zero, and the capacitor voltage equals the biasing voltage. When a SECAM or NTSC-3.58 signal is received, the difference between the burst and fa frequency is so large that the phase changes very rapidly and, as a result, the H/2 pulses are irregular. This causes the average charge current of C21 to be zero. b. When the decoder is set to NTSC-4.43, the PAL and NTSC-4.4 phase discriminator is activated and the SECAM frequency discriminator is switched off. The PAL phase 10-75 discriminator and the H/2 demodulator operate as previously described. With an NTSC-4.43 signal at the input, the output of the NTSC phase discriminator consists of pulses with the same polarity because the burst of the NTSC signal and the reference signal (B-Y) have the same phase. With a PAL input signal, the NTSC phase discriminator also outputs pulses with the same polarity, because the PAL burst comprises a component which is stable in the negative (B-Y) direction for each line. Capacitor C20 at the output of the NTSC phase discriminator is therefore charged by an NTSC-4.43, as well as a PAL, input signal, although the decoder is set to the NTSC-4.43 mode. With NTSC-3.58 and SECAM signals, the average output current of the NTSC phase discriminator is zero (tJ.V20 = 0) because the frequency of the burst of the carrier frequency does not match that of the reference. c. When the decoder is set to NTSC-3.58, the oscillator circuit (including dividers) generates reference signals of about 3.58MHz and the SECAM frequency discriminator is switched off. The NTSC-3.58 phase discriminator provides demodulated burst pulses with constant polarity. At the H/2 demodulator output, no pulses, or, in case of phase faults, small pulses with alternating polarity, appear as in the NTSC-4.43 mode. For all other color input signals (PAL, SECAM, NTSC-4.43), the large difference between burst or carrier frequency and reference signal frequency prevents defined discriminator output pulses. As a result, the average charge currents of capaCitor C20 and C21 are zero. d. When decoding SECAM, the H/2 demodulator obtains its signals from the SECAM discriminator. The output of the PAL phase discriminator is not used and the NTSC phase discriminator is switched off so no output signal is available (tJ.V20 = 0). For SECAM decoding, a frequency discriminator in the recognition block is active. H/2 pulses with line-alternating polarity occur when the frequency of the applied signal is alternately higher and lower than the resonant frequency fRES of the SECAM identification circuit. fRES = (fOB + fOR)/2==4.43MHz Therefore, the output of the H/2 demodulator is a train of equal polarity pulses charging the capacitor C21 . For PAL, NTSC-3.58 and NTSC-4.43 signals, the burst frequency is constant so the output of the frequen- • Application Note Signetics Linear Products Single-Chip Multistandard Color Decoder TDA4555 jTDA4556 AN1551 l5 10"H SECA'" IDENTlACATION REFERENCE IDENTIFICATION SECAM SELECTION 6V = HORIZONTAL + VERTICAL 12V VERTICAl. fl-~ L7 10J..(H = CHROMiNANCE INPUT 10 TO 200mVp..p EnF lnF 14 23 11k 120pF ~nF EnF 22 21 1 TOA4555 - (R-V) TOA4556 + (R.Y) 1.0SVp.p COLOR DIFFERENCE OUTPUTS l.33Vp.p TDA4555 - (B-Y) T0A4556 + (S-V) SE;~ ......H+-'::I-"-1+-l :~~::~ [ ( ~ TDA4555 TDA4556 lOV S'MTCHING VOLTAGE FOR FORCED STANDARD SEmNG INDICATION OF SELECTED STANDARD 17 3.3k 24 6.ak '''' 10k HUE NTSC 3.58MHz PAL NTSC 4.43MHz +12V SERVICE SWITCH It A- ay __ -===-2:5V 4.SV INPUT -OV SANDCASTLE PULSE (A) COLOR ON; HUE OFF (e) COLOA ON; BURST OFF +6Y Figure 2. Block Diagram and Peripheral Circuitry cy discriminator consists of unipolar pulses and the H/2 demodulator outputs alternating polarity pulses. The average charge current of capacitor C21 is therefore zero (lN21 =0). The TDA4555 is designed so that identification of SECAM Signals can be performed as required by using the special signals in each field blanking period (V-identification) or the February 1987 burst signal at the back porch (H-identification), or both signals at the same time (H + Vident). The required standard is selected by applying the appropriate voltage to Pin 23 as follows: V23 < 2V V23 > 10V (e.g., ground), H-identification (e.g., VSUPPLY), V-identification V23 = SV or floating, H + V-identification. 10-76 V-identification is more reliable than the Hidentification because the identification signals are longer and have a greater frequency deviation (Ll.f',B = 3.9MHz; Ll.f',R = 4.75SMHz). With H-identification, only the normal carrier signal at the end of the back porch is available for identification. When it is required to transmit other information during the fieldblanking period, several transmitters (e.g.,in France) stop transmitting the V-identification Signetics Linear Products Application Note Single-Chip Multistandard Color Decoder TDA4555/TDA4556 signals. However, the TDA4555 can easily be adapted to such system changes. AN1551 The two crystals for the reference oscillator are both connected between Pin 19 and ground via a switch circuit comprising two transistors driven by the external standard switch voltages. To prevent interference, the oscillator is switched off during SECAM decoding. Table 1 summarizes the foregoing. For b/w signals, the average charge current is zero, so no standard is recognized and the scanning is continuous. Generation of PAL and NTSC Reference Signals Color Signal Demodulators Demodulation of the color signals is performed in the same way as in single standard predecessors. For demodulation and identification of the quadrature amplitude-modulated PAL and NTSC color signals, the reference signals Ref(R-Y) and Ref(B-Y) are needed. These signals are derived from the transmitted burst by a PLL which comprises a voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO), a 2:1 frequency divider, and a phase discriminator. The oscillator frequency is twice the subcarrier frequency (2fo) and the circuit has the advantage that the two quadrature reference signals are available at the output of the divider. In the PAL decoding mode, the burst signal is removed from the color signal derived from the gain-controlled chroma amplifier to prevent disturbances caused by reflections in the glass delay-line delayed by other than a single line period. The color signal is applied to an 18dB amplifier and driver stage (emitterfollower) which compensate for the "worstcase" loss in the external delay-line circuit. Color subcarrier signals CSCR.Y and CSCs.y are separated by the delay line connected to Pin 12 and terminated at both input and output. Direct and delayed signals are matched by a potentiometer in the output termination. Phase matching can be obtained with coils L5 and Ls, which compensate the delay-line capacitances. With PAL and NTSC, the phase discriminator compares the (R-Y) reference signal and the burst. The burst and the color signal obtained from the ACC stage are applied to the discriminator directly for PAL and via the hue control for NTSC. In the hue control block, the phase of the burst signal can be shifted ± 30° by an external voltage of between 2V and 4V at Pin 17. This voltage is derived from the supply by a simple resistor network. Pin 17 also receives the voltage from the "service" switch. If V17 is less than 1V (e.g., ground), the color is forced ON and the oscillator free runs because the burst is switched OFF. The oscillator frequency can be adjusted with the trimmers in series with the crystals. If V17 is greater than 6V (e.g., the supply voltage), the color is forced ON and the hue control is switched OFF. The delayed signal is taken from the potentiometer slider and fed to the internal matrix via Pin 10, where the direct and delayed signal are added and subtracted to obtain the separated color subcarriers CSCR.Y and CSCs_Y. The matrixing is very simple because the demodulators have symmetrical differential inputs and the direct color signal is available in both polarities. Signals of one polarity are applied to one of the (B-Y) demodulator inputs, and signals of the other polarity to one of the (R-Y) demodulator inputs. The remaining input of both demodulators is supplied with the delayed signal. Unlike previous PAL decoders, the PAL switch is located just in front of the (R-Y) demodulator, i.e., in the CSCR_Y signal path. The phase discriminator, which provides a VCO control voltage which depends on the phase difference between burst and reference signal, is activated by a burst key pulse. The control voltage is filtered by an external second-order, low-pass filter connected to Pin 18. The actual color signal demodulators are conventional synchronous types comprising an analog multiplying differential stage with a current source in the emitter circuit and balanced, cross-coupled switching stages in the collector circuit. The latter are driven by reference signals Ref(R-Y) or Ref(B-Y) and one or both analog inputs receive the color signal CSC(R.Y) or CSC(S_y). The color-difference signals CD, obtained after demodulation, are blanked during the line blanking interval to provide signals with clean levels. For NTSC decoding, the color signal is demodulated in a similar manner except that only the direct (undelayed) signal is used. The PAL switch in the CSC(R.Y) path is not used. For reception of the line sequential SECAM color signals, a parallel-crossover switch (" permutator") is required before the demodulators. This permutator alternately feeds both demodulators with a direct and (via the external delay line) a delayed color signal of the same subcarrier frequency. After the permutator, both color channels incorporate a limiter stage to eliminate amplitude modulation. The color signals are demodulated by quadrature demodulators, each comprising an internal multiplier and an external single-tuned phase-shift circuit, known as the SECAM reference circuit. These reference circuits, connected to Pins 5.6 and 7.8, cause a phase shift of about 90° for the unmodulated subcarrier frequency. Thus, for unmodulated subcarrier signals, there is no output apart from the biasing voltage. The SECAM reference circuits are adjusted by La and Lg so that the reference levels appear at the CD outputs when the subcarrier is unmodulated or when the color is switched off. In each color-difference channel, the demodulators are followed by internal low-pass deemphasis networks which remove the unwanted high-frequency components (harmonics of reference and color signals). The color-difference signals pass, via the output emitter-followers with current sources Table 1.

They have the following nominal amplitudes referred to a 7S% saturated color bar: V(R.Y) = 1.0SVp_p; V(S_V) = 1.33Vp_p. For the TDA4555, the polarity of the signals is negative and therefore suitable for input to the video combination family TDA3500 (except TDA3506). The TDA4556 is similar to the TDA4555 except for the positive polarity of the TDA4556 color difference output signals. February 19B7 Therefore, this TDA4556 can be used with the Video Combination TDA3506. APPLICATION CONSIDERATIONS Circuit Example Figure 2 is a tested circuit of a multistandard decoder. A more detailed circuit of the input filters is shown in Figure 3. These filters separate the luminance signal (Y) from the color signals for the four decoding modes. 10-78 The same filters can be used for PAL and NTSC-4.43 signals since they have a similar frequency spectrum. For SECAM signals, it is possible to use the 4.43MHz subcarrier trap of the PALINTSC-4.43 filter, but it is then necessary to add a trap tuned to about 4.05MHz in the Y channel. This filter suppresses the color signal components below about 4.2MHz, which mainly occur during the "blue SECAM line". The filter circuits for PAL and NTSC signals are based on a separation filter which also equalizes phase delay.

This type of filter is only given as an example. Simpler filters can also be used. The SECAM circuit contains the obligatory "bell" filter. Coil data for the circuit shown in Figure 3 is given in Table 2. Figure 4 shows oscillograms of the luminance and color filtering in the three signal paths. It can be seen that the color passband in the PAL and NTSC decoding mode has its minimum just below the color subcarrier frequency. This means that the lower sideband of the color signal is mainly used and, as a result, the filter may have a narrower bandwidth. Generally, the upper sideband of the color signal is already attenuated by the IF filter. The passband of the filter in the SECAM color signal path has the required "bell" shape as shown in Figure 4c. Depending on the decoding mode, the luminance signal is fed from the appropriate filter, via the luminance delay line, to the video combination IC, and the color signal is fed via a small coupling capacitor (220pF) to input Pin 15 of the decoder IC. Emitter-followers in the color signal path provide the required switching. There is one for each mode, PAL/NTSC-4.43, NTSC-3.58, and SECAM, feeding a common emitterresistor. Three more emitter-followers in the luminance signal path are combined with a fourth which supplies the unfiltered video signal to the video combination IC during b/w reception, or while the standards are being scanned. The video signals are applied to the bases of the transistor switches via coupling capacitors, the switch voltages being supplied via resistor-diode networks. The fourth transistor switch in the luminance channel has fixed-base biasing of about 4.4V. From the low-pass characteristics of the luminance channels, it follows that the subcarriers (4.43MHz for PALINTSC-4.43 and 3.58MHz for NTSC-3.58) and the unmodulated carrier frequency (fOB ~ 4.41 MHz for SECAM) are strongly attenuated. Additionally, low-pass filter (L1OC20) of the SECAM luminance channel resonates at about 4.05MHz which provides the required attenuation of frequencies below 4.2MHz for modulated carriers. The resistors in parallel with the SECAM tuned circuits determine their Q and therefore the conversion efficiency (dV1df) of the demodulators in the SECAM mode and can be used to set the nominal output values of the CD signals (with a color bar signal). The switch transistors for the oscillator crystals at Pin 19 have their collectors connected, via 10kn reSistors, to the supply line. Because they are either fully conducting or completely cutoff and the voltages are low (12V max.), the type of transistor is not critical. All three separation filters are fed with the CVBS input signal via an emitter-follower (transistor BC548B). Therefore, the complete decoder has a high input resistance and the filters are driven for a low impedance Signal source. The standard control voltage outputs (Pins 25 to 28) can deliver a current of 3mA which is insufficient to drive a LED to indicate the standard to which the circuit is set. An additional transistor amplifier such as that shown in Figure 5 is therefore required. Resistor Rcs February 1987 10-79 determines the current through the LED, and RBS limits the maximum base current. If an indication is provided for each of the standard switch voltages, then it is easy to establish which standard, if any, is recognized. When all the diodes light up in sequence, the circuit is still scanning and no standard has been recognized. Alignment of the Input Filter The alignment of both the PAL/NTSC-4.43 and NTSC-3.58 separation filters consists of three procedures for each separation filter. 1. Alignment of the Color Bandpass Apply a sweep signal [f = 3.5MHz (4MHz); t.f~± 3MHz (± 3MHz) to the filter input (PCB Pin 8). Connect an oscilloscope to PCB Pin 6 and make the filter output available at IC Pin 6 by applying an external switch voltage to the appropriate switch transistor. Adjust L2(L2al for maximum output at 3.45MHz (4.2MHz). 2. Alignment of the Compensation Circuit Apply a 3.58MHz (4.43MHz) subcarrier to the filter input (PCB Pin 8) and adjust L1(L1a) so that the voltage at the Youtput of the filter is minimum. This Y output can be measured at the 470n (560n) terminating resistor, or at PCB Pin 10, if the proper switch transistor is activated by an external switch Voltage. 3_ Alignment of the Phase Delay Equalizer Apply a 16 100kHz square wave to the filter input (PCB Pin 8) and connect an oscilloscope to the output of the luminance filter (470n or 560n terminating resistor). II Application Note Signetics linear Products Single-Chip Multistandard Color Decoder TDA4555/TDA4556 AN1551 mended that the filter be included in the test Signal path when aligning L3/L3o. In practice, a square wave-modulated IF signal should be applied to the input of the IF circuit for this adjustment. Filter L1OC10 attenuates the SECAM color signal in the luminance channel below 4.2MHz. L10 is adjusted so that an applied 4.05MHz signal has minimum amplitude at the output of the SECAM Y-filter (terminating resistor 3.3kn, or PCB Pin 10, if an external switch voltage is applied to the appropriate input). 2 3 !(MHz) a.

Amplitude-frequency Characteristics of Input Filter Alternatively, the oscilloscope can be connected to PCB Pin 10, if an external switch voltage is applied to the appropriate input. Adjust coil L3(L3'> to obtain a symmetrical overshoot at the leading and trailing edges of the pulse. Because the Impulse response of a receiver also depends on the IF filter, it Is recomFebruary 1987 To align the SECAM "bell" filter, a SECAM color bar is applied to the filter input (PCB Pin 8) and an external switch voltage (e.g., the supply voltage) to PCB Pin 16 to force the SECAM decoding mode. L4 is then adjusted for minimum amplitude-modulation of the filtered color signal (PCB Pin 6). To locate the coils to be adjusted, it is useful to color code them as shown in Table 2 and Figure 3.

Example of Standard Indicator Circuit output signal (IC Pin 1 or PCB Pin 14) using an oscilloscope, or, observing the picturetube screen, minimize the PAL structure (pairing of the lines). Special test patterns can also be used for delay line adjustment. Decoder Alignment Finally, remove the external switching voltage applied to Pin 28 and put the service switch in the mid (normal) position. PAL and NTSC-4.43 Signals Force the PAL decoding mode by an external voltage exceeding 9V (e.g., the supply voltage) applied to Pin 28 of the IC (or PCB Pin 15) and apply a PAL color signal (e.g., color bar) to the filter input, PCB Pin 8. Connect IC Pin 17 to ground with the service switch. The color is forced ON and the oscillator is freerunning because the PLL oscillator circuit does not receive the burst. NTSC-3.58 Signals In this case, only the 7.16MHz oscillator has to be adjusted. Force the circuit to the NTSC3.58 decoding mode by connecting IC Pin 26 or PCB Pin 17 to the supply voltage. Apply an NTSC 3.58 color signal to the filter input (PCB Pin 8). Connect IC Pin 17 to ground with the service switch. The color is forced ON and the oscillator is free-running because the PLL oscillator does not receive burst signals. Adjust the trimmer in series with the 8.8MHz crystal for minimum color rolling. Alternatively, observe the color-difference signals at IC output Pins 1 and 3 and minimize the beat frequency with the trimmer. This 8.8MHz oscillator adjustment is also valid for the decoder in NTSC-4.43 mode. Adjust the trimmer in series with the 7.16MHz crystal for minimum color rolling. Alternatively, observe the CD signals at the IC output Pins 1 and 3 and minimize the beat frequency. To adjust the phase of the delay-line decoder, apply a PAL color bar signal to the input of the circuit (PCB Pin 8) with the service switch in its normal (middle) position. Adjust Ls and La to minimize amplitude differences of each color bar in the (B-Y) output signal (IC Pin 3 or PCB Pin 13). Alternatively, minimize the PAL structure (pairing of the lines) observed on the screen. If the adjustment range of Ls is too small, adjust La. To adjust the amplitude of the delay-line decoder, apply an NTSC-4.43 color bar signal to the input of the circuit (PCB Pin 8) and connect IC Pin 17 to the supply line with the service switch. The color is forced ON and the hue control is switched off. Adjust the 220.11 potentiometer connected to Pin 4 of the DL711 delay line for minimum amplitude differences of each color bar in the (R-Y) 10-80 Finally, remove the connection between PCB Pin 17 and the supply voltage and put the service switch back to its mid position. Alignment for SECAM Signals Force the circuit in the SECAM decoding mode by connecting the supply voltage to IC Pin 27 (or PCB Pin 16). Apply a SECAM color bar to the filter input (PCB Pin 8). Connect IC Pin 23 (or PCB Pin 20) to the supply line to activate the H-identification. Connect a high-impedance (> 10Mn) voltmeter between IC Pin 21 and ground. Adjust coil L7 for the maximum voltage at IC Pin 21. Observe the - (R-Y) output signal at IC Pin 1 (PCB Pin 14) with an oscilloscope. Adjust La so that the levels of the black and white bars are in accordance with the level inserted during blanking. Observe the -(B-Y) output signal at IC Pin 3 (PCB Pin 13) with an oscilloscope. Adjust L9 Application Note Signetics Linear Products Single-Chip Multistandard Color Decoder TDA4555/TDA4556 so that the levels of the black and white bars are in accordance with the levels inserted during blanking. Use of the PC Board for a PAL-Only Decoder With the AN1551 TDA4555/TDA4556 can be used as a single standard decoder (e.g., a NTSC-only decoder), but the "pin-aligned" TDA4570 is a cheaper alternative. The connections of the TDA4570 and those of the TDA4555 are shown in Figure 6. Apart from the omission of TDA4510 many peripheral components, only small changes in the external circuitry are needed.

The internal control voltage can never be more positive than O.7V above the internal contrast voltage. 8. Matrix equation : oulput of NTSC decoder of PAL type demodulating axis and amplitudes VIR_V).

During clamping time. in each channel the black level of the inserted signal is clamped on the black level of the internal signal behind the matrix (dependent on brightness control). 10. During warm-up time of the picture tube. the RGB outputs (Pins 1. 3. and 5) are blanked to minimum output voltage. An inserted white pulse during the vertical flyback is used for beam current detection. If the beam current exceeds the threshold of the warm-up detector at Pin 26. the cut-off current control starts operating. but the video signal is still blanked. After IIIn-in of the cut-off current control loop. the video signal will be released. The first measuring pulse occurs in the first complete line after the end of the vertical part of the sandcastle pulse. The absolute minimum vertical part must contain 9 line-pulses. The cycle time of the counter is 63 lines. When the vertical pulse is longer than 61 lines. the IC is reset to the switch-on condition. In this event the video signal is blanked and the RGB outputs are blanked to minimum output voltage as during warm-up time. During leakage current measurement. all three channels are blanked to ultra-black level 1. With the measuring level only In the controlled channel. the other two channels are blanked to ultra-black level 1. The brightness control shifts both the signal black level and the ultra-black level 2. The brightness control is disabled from line 4 to the end of the last measuring line (see Figure 1). With the most adverse conditions (maximum brightness and minimum black level 2) the blanking level is located 30% of nominal signal amplitude below the cut-off measuring level. 11. The given blanking times are valid for the vertical part of the sandeaslle pulse of 9 to 15 lines. If the vertical part is longer and the cut-off lines are outside the vertical blanking period of 18. 22. or 25 lines. respectively. the blanking of the signal ends with the end of the last of the three cut-off measuring pulses as shown in Figure 3. 12. The sandcaslle pulse is compared with three internal thresholds (proportional to Vcc) to separate the various pulses. The internal pulses are generated when the input pulse at Pin 10 exceeds the thresholds. The thresholds are for. • Horizontal and vertical blanking V'O-24 = 1.5V • Horizontal pulse V'O-24 = 3.5V • Clamping pulse V'O-24 = 7.0V 13. The outputs at Pins 1, 3, and 5 are emitter-followers with current sources and emitter protection resistors. 14. The value of the cut-off control range for the positive RGB output signals is given for a nominal output signal. If the signal amplitude is reduced. the cut-off range can be increased. 15. The gain data is given for a nominal setting of the contrast and saturation controls. measured without load at the RGB oulputs (Pins 1. 3. and 5).

February 12, 1987 10-104 10 V /1S Product Specification Signetics Linear Products Quad DAC With 12C Interface TDA8442 FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION Reset Control The power-down reset mode occurs whenever the positive supply voltage falls below 8.5V (typical) and resets all registers to a defined state. Analog control is facilitated by four 6-bit digital-to-analog converters (DACO to DAC3). The values of the output voltages from the DACs are set via the 12C bus. The high-current output port (Pl) is suitable for switching between internal and external RGB signals. It is an open NPN emitter output capable of sourcing 14mA (minimum). The two output ports (P2 and P2N) can be used for NTSC/PAL switching. These are NPN collector outputs with internal pull-up resistors of 10kU (typical). Both outputs are capable of sinking up to 2mA with a voltage drop of less than 400mV. If one output is programmed to be Low, the other output will be High, and vice versa. OPERATION Write 12C The TDA8442 is controlled via the bus. Programming of the TDA8442 is performed using the format shown in Figure 1. Acknowledge (A) is generated by the TDA8442 only when a valid address is received and the device is not in the powerdown reset mode (Vcc> 8.5V (typ». Control Control is implemented by the instruction bytes POD (port output data) and DACX INSTRUCTION BYTE MODULE ADDRESS (digital-to-analog converter control), and the corresponding datal control bytes (see Figure 2). POD Bit PI -If a '1' is programmed, the Pl output is forced High. If a '0' is programmed, or after a power-down reset, the PI output is Low (high-impedance state). POD Bit P2/P2N - If a '1' is programmed, the P2 output goes High and the P2N output goes Low. If a '0' is programmed, and after a power-down reset, the P2 output is Low and the P2N output is High. DAX Bits AX5 to AXO - The digital-toanalog converter selected corresponds to the decimal equivalent of the two bits Xl and XO. The output voltage of the selected DAC is programmed using Bits AX5 to AXO, the lowest value being all AX5 to AXO data at '0', or when power-down reset has been activated.

The IC has two sets of inputs. The first (Inputs 1) is intended for the internal video signals (R-Y), Y, (B-Y), and the associated synchronization pulse coming from the color decoder; the second (Inputs 2) is intended for external video signals R, G, B, and the associated synchronization pulse coming from the accessory inputs. The latter ones (Inputs 2) can also consist of the video signals (R-Y), Y, (B-Y), and the associated synchronization pulse. The RGB signals at Inputs 2 can also be matrixed internally into the luminance signal Y and the color-difference signals (R-Y) and (B-Y) before they become available at the outputs. By means of 12C bus mode or manual control (control by DC voltages), one of these inputs can be selected and will be available at the outputs. The IC contains three pins for programming the sub-address; this means that within one TV set the system can be expanded up to seven ICs. The TDA8443 is designed to be used with the CCTV levels, while the TDA8443A is designed to be used for the standard decoder signal levels. • Two RGB/YUV selectable clamped inputs with associated sync PIN CONFIGURATION • An RGB/YUV matrix • 3-State switching with an OFF state • Four amplifiers with selectable gain • Fast switching to allow for mixed mode • 12Cor non-1 2C mode (control by DC voltages) • Slave receiver in the 12C mode • External OFF command • System expansion possible up to 7 devices ORDER CODE o to +70'C TDA8443N 24-Pin Plastic DIP (SOT-101) o to +70'C TDA8443AN ABSOLUTE MAXIMUM RATINGS PARAMETER TSTG Storage temperature range TA Operating ambient temperature range V18-7 Supply voltage PD Total power dissipation UNIT 'C o to +70 'C V W Maximum junction temperature Input voltage range lOMAX Maximum output current February 1987 RATING -65 to +150 14 VSDA VSCL FAST SWITCH IN RGB/YUV IN 6Q 4 RGB/YUV IN 6Q 5 RGB/YUV IN 6Q 6 REGULAlOR DECOUP lOP VIEW ..

The integrated circuit consists of a limiting amplifier, a current-controlled oscillator (lCO), a phase detector, a level shift circuit, VII and IIV converters, an output buffer, and bias circuitry with temperature and frequency compensating characteristics. The design of the NE568 is particularly well-suited for demodulation of FM signals with extremely large deviation in systems which require a highly linear output. In satellite receiver applications with a 70MHz IF, the NE568 will demodulate ± 10% deviations with less than 4.0% non-linearity (1.5% typical). In addition to high linearity, the circuit has a loop filter which can be configured with series or shunt elements to optimize loop dynamic performance. The NE568 is available in 20-pin dual in-line and 20pin SO (surface-mounted) plastic packages. • Operation to 150MHz • High linearity buffered output • Series or shunt loop filter component capability • Temperature compensated PIN CONFIGURATION D, N Packages APPLICATIONS • • • • Satellite receivers Fiber-optic video links VHF FSK demodulators Clock recovery INPBYP VIN TOP VIEW ORDERING INFORMATION DESCRIPTION TEMPERATURE RANGE o to o to 20-Pin Plastic SOL Package 20-Pin Plastic DIP ORDER CODE +70·C NE568D +70·C NE568N BLOCK DIAGRAM LF1 LF2 LF3 LF4 11 10 GND2 February 1987 GND!

Test and Application Circuit • February 1987 11-9 Signetics Linear Products Preliminary Specification 150MHz Phase-locked loop FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION The NE568 is a high-performance phaselocked loop (PLL). The circuit consists of conventional PLL elements, with special circuitry for linearized demodulated output, and high-frequency performance. The process used has NPN transistors with fT > 6GHz. The high gain and bandwidth of these transistors make careful attention to layout and bypass critical for optimum performance. The performance of the PLL cannot be evaluated independent of the layout. The use of the application layout in this data sheet and surface-mount capacitors are highly recommended as a starting paint. The input to the PLL is through a limiting amplifier with a gain of 200. The input of this amplifier is differential (Pins 10 and 11). For single-ended applications, the input must be coupled through a DC-blocking capacitor with low impedance at the frequency of interest. The single-ended input is normally applied to Pin 11 with Pin 10 AC-bypassed with a lowimpedance capacitor. The input impedance is characteristically slightly above soon. Impedance match is not necessary, but loading the signal source should be avoided. When the source is 50 or 75n, a DC-blocking capacitor is usually all that is needed. Input amplification is low enough to assure reasonable response time in the case of large signals, but high enough for good AM rejection. After amplification, the input signal drives one port of a multiplier-cell phase detector. The other port is driven by the current-controlled oscillator (ICO). The output of the phase comparator is a voltage proportional to the phase difference of the input and February 1987 NE568 ICO signals. The error signal is filtered with a low-pass filter to provide a DC-correction voltage, and this voltage is converted to a current which is applied to the ICO, shifting the frequency in the direction which causes the input and ICO to have a 90° phase relationship. The oscillator is a current-controlled multivibrator. The current control affects the charge! discharge rate of the timing capacitor. It is common for this type of oscillator to be referred to as a voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO), because the output of the phase comparator and the loop filter is a voltage. To control the frequency of an integrated ICO multivibrator, the control signal must be conditioned by a voltage-to-current converter. In the NE568, special circuitry predistorts the control signal to make the change in frequency a linear function over a large controlvoltage range. The free-running frequency of the oscillator depends on the value of the timing capacitor connected between Pins 4 and 5. The value of the timing capacitor depends on internal resistive components and current sources. When A2 = 1.2kn and A4 = on, a very close approximation of the correct capacitor value is: 0.0014 C'=-- F fo where C' = C2 + CSTRAY. The temperature-compensation resistor, A4, affects the actual value of capacitance. This equation is normalized to 70MHz. See Figure 6 for correction factors. 11-10 The loop filter determines the dynamic characteristics of the loop. In most PLLs, the phase detector outputs are internally connected to the ICO inputs. The NE5S8 was designed with filter output to input connections from Pins 20 (rJ> DET) to 17 (ICO), and Pins 19 (rJ> DET) to 18 (lCO) external. This allows the use of both series and shunt loopfilter elements. The loop constants are: Ko = 0.127V!Aadian (Phase Detector Constant) Aadians Ko = 4.2 X 109 - - - (ICO Constant) V-sec The loop filter determines the general characteristics of the loop. Capacitors Cg, C1Q, and resistor At, control the transient output of the phase detector. Capacitor Cg suppresses 70MHz feedthrough by interaction with lOOn load resistors internal to the phase detector. Cg 1 21T (50)(fo) F At 70MHz, the calculated value is 45pF. Empirical results with the test and application board were improved when a 56pF capacitor was used. The natural frequency for the loop filter is set by CtO and At. If the center frequency of the loop is 70MHz and the full demodulated bandwidth is desired, i.e., fBW = fol7 = 10MHz, and a value for At is chosen, the value of C1Q can be calculated.

The calculated value of C10 is 590pF; 560pF was chosen as a production value. (In actual satellite receiver applications, improved video with low carrier/noise has been observed with a wider loop-filter bandwidth.) A typical application of the NE568 is demodulation of FM signals. In this mode of operation, a second single-pole filter is available at Pin 15 to minimize high frequency feedthrough to the output. The roll-off frequency is set by an internal resistor of 350n ± 20%, and an external capacitor from Pin 15 to ground. The value of the capacitor is: C~ 1 21T (350)f Bw Two final components complete the active part of the circuitry. A resistor from Pin 12 to ground sets the temperature stability of the circuit, and a potentiometer from Pin 16 to ground permits fine tuning of the free-running oscillator frequency. The Pin 16 potentiometer is normally 1.2kn. Adjusting this resistance controls current sources which affect the charge and discharge rates of the timing capacitor and, thus, the frequency. The value of the temperature stability resistor is chosen from the graph in Figure 6. The final consideration is bypass capacitors for the supply lines. The capacitors should be ceramic chips, preferably surface-mount types. They must be kept very close to the device. The capacitors from Pins 8 and 9 return to VCG1 before being bypassed with a separate capacitor to ground. This assures that no differential loops are created which might cause instability. The layouts for the test circuits are recommended. (Shown at 82% of original size.) a. Component Side Top of Board b. Bac;k of Board NOTES: 1.

If AI is arbitrarily chosen. AF is found to be The NE5539 is well-suited for use as a levelshifting amplifier at the input of the PNA7509 video speed analog-to-digital converter. Designing this circuit is straightforward and relatively simple. The first step is to determine the gain that is required. Since the PNA7509 requires a maximum input of 5.0 VDC and a minimum input of 2.5VDC the required amplifier gain is where VMAX is the maximum level of the amplifier input signal. and VMIN is the minimum level of the amplifier input signal. This gain must be greater than unity as the gain of a non-inverting amplifier such as this is Av = I + (AF/AI). The ratio of AF to AI is then AF/AI=Av- l . The task is now to select AF and AI. These resistors should be low enough to swamp out The required offset voltage. Yo. is then found to be Vo = VMAX - [(5 - VMAX) (AI/AF)]· Because the NE5539 input cannot be driven closer to its negative supply than about 4.7V. that negative supply must be -4.7V or more negative in order to accommodate an input signal whose minimum potential is OV. The NE5539 output must never come any closer to the supply rail than about 5.5V. and the maximum output required to drive the PNA7509 is 5V. so the positive supply must be at least 5 + 5.5V. or 10.5V. If we use standard power supply potentials of + 12V and -5V. this would satisfy these requirements. except we must insure that the negative supply is at least as negative as - 4. 7V. Tests have been conducted that indicate satisfactory operation with the positive supply between 10.5V and 13.5V. and the negative supply between -4.7V and -5.7V. Furthermore. because the NE5539 is sensitive to unbalance in the supplies. it is necessary to insure that its Pin 7 potential is close to halfway between the positive and the negative supply. Two resistors and an op amp driving Pin 7 nicely provide this balance. Another op amp is used to set the offset voltage. The three diodes are used to drop the 12V supply to 10V for the PNA7509. If available and desired. a separate 10V supply could be used without the diodes. Other components are shown for the convenience of the user. The potentiometer at Pin 5 of the NE5514 is used to adjust Yo. The potentiometer at Pin 12 of the NE5514 sets the voltage at the low end of the PNA7509 reference ladder. so is a zero-scale adjustment. The potentiometer at Pin 3 of the NE5514 sets the high end voltage on the PNA7509 reference ladder and is. effectively. a full-scale adjustment. It is also possible to use a signal divider at the NE5539 input for full-scale adjustment. AF can also be made variable to provide full-scale adjustment. Care should be exercised. however. when introducing potentiometers into feedback loops or into high-frequency signal paths. The NE5514 was chosen for its low input offset voltage temperature coefficient. .,. ",. 0.1 ~1 ". -=- 1.' OFL 20 (Z.s.)

They are a high performance - yet cost effective - means of interfacing digital memory and a CRT. The NE5150/5152 are single integrated circuit chips containing special input buffers, an ECl static RAM, high-speed latches, and three 4-bit DACs. The input buffers are user-selectable as either ECl or TTL compatible for the NE5150. The NE5152 is similar to the NE5150, but is TTL compatible only, and operates off of a single + 5V supply. The RAM is organized as 16 X 12, so that 16 "color words" can be down-loaded from the pixel memory into the chip memory. Each 12-bit word represents 4 bits of red, 4 bits of green and 4 bits of blue information. This system gives 4096 possible colors. The RAM is fast enough to completely reload during the horizontal retrace time. The latches resynchronize the digital data to the DACs to prevent glitches. The DACs include all the composite video functions to make the output waveforms meet RS-170 and RS-343 standards, and produce 1Vp.p into 75n. The composite functions (reference white, bright, blank, and sync) are latched to prevent screen-edge distortions generally found on "video DACs." External components are kept to an absolute minimum (bypass capacitors only as needed) by including all reference generation circuitry and termination resistors on-Chip, by building in high-frequency PSRR (eliminating separate VEES and costly power supplies and filtering), and by using a single-ended clock. The guaranteed maximum operating frequency for the NE5150/5152 is 110MHz over the commercial termperature range. The devices are housed in a standard 24-pin package and consume less than 1W of power. PIN CONFIGURATIONS NE5150 F Package The NE5151 is a simplified version of the NE5150, including all functions except the memory. Maximum operating frequency is 150MHz.

Full·scale is 90 IRE units and 10 IRE units is is of full·scale (e.g., BRIGHT function). Pins 19, 20, 21: WRITEs, WRITER, WRITEG' Write enable commands for each of the three 16 X 4 memories. When all write commands are high, then the READ operation is selected. This is the normal display mode. To write data into. memory, the write enable pin is taken low. Data DO - D3 will be written into address AO - A3 of each memory when its corresponding write enable pin goes low. Pin 17: STROBE. The strobe signal is the main system clock and is used for resynchronizing digital signals to the DACs. Preventing data skew eliminates glitches which would otherwise become visible color distortions on a CRT display. The strobe command has no special drive requirements and is TTL or ECl compatible. Pins 12, 16: AGND, DGND. Both Analog and Digital ground carry a me.::irr.um of approximately 100mA of DC current. For proper operation, the difference voltage between AGND and DGND should be no greater than 50mV, preferably less. Pin 14: VEE' The negative power supply is the main chip power source.

Sedayao INTRODUCTION Raster-scan systems and bit-mapped graphics are here to stay. For a computer to be of use, it needs an interactive means of communicating with the user. So for every computer, whether it is a 10MFLOP (millions of floatingpoint operations per second) supercomputer or a home computer for playing video games, some type of terminal or graphics display device is needed. Not long ago, inputs to the computer were made using stacks of Hollerith cards pushed into a hopper and then read into the computer. Results would then come from a printer. The hardcopy results were exactly what they looked like: final judgment from the computer. In order to respond, it was back to the punch-card machine. Needless to say, debugging programs became quite laborious. This problem led to the interactive display, allowing the user to enter information and see the results immediately. A new age in computing had arrived. The areas of word processing, on-screen circuit simulation, and computer graphics developed with great rapidity. As technology improved, so did the ability to make larger displays having more colors and better resolution. As software developed, so did techniques such as windowing, the use of icons, and the ability to use graphic input devices such as mouses, light pens, and joysticks. Three-dimensional images and photographic quality reproduction soon followed. Of the different technologies, how did raster scanning predominate over other forms? What differentiates bit-mapped graphics systems from character or vector-map systems? In the following sections it will become clear how technology and economics drove the market and, consequently, product development. Displays: Raster, Vector Refresh, Storage Tube A raster is technically a display of horizontal lines. How the display is created is what makes it unique. An electron beam generated by a CRT (Cathode Ray Tube) and containing video information, starts at the top left of the screen and traces a path to the right part of the screen (see Figure 1). It makes a slight angle as it travels across. The gun is then turned off as the beam rapidly returns to tlie left. It then repeats this zig-zag path until it reaches the bottom of the screen. The gun is again tumed off as the beam travels back to February 1987 the top of the screen. This entire process is repeated from 30 to 60 times per second so flicker is decreased (motion pictures or film typically display 24 images per second). What the electron beam has done is scanned its information onto the screen. This process is called raster scanning. Figure 1. Raster-Scanned Display All television sets display information in this manner. For television sets in the United States, the screen is redrawn 30 times per second. Additionally, the screen is interlaced, meaning that every other line is scanned and then the lines in between are scanned. This gives the illusion that the image is continuous. Since the television sets have 525 lines, 262.5 lines are scanned first (the odd field) and then the other 262.5 (the even field) are scanned. To visualize this, consider a 21-line system (see Figure 2). Scanning occurs at the above-mentioned 30Hz rate which is also known as the frame rate. Two fields (odd and even) equal one frame. Scanning 525 lines 30 times a second equals 15,750 horizontal lines scanned in a second. This is called the horizontal scan frequency. These are standard in the U.S., coming under the standard known as NTSC (National Television Standards Committee). In Europe, television has 625 lines and has a frame rate of 25Hz, or half the power line frequency, 50Hz. Vector refresh displays, or stroke-writers, work on the principle that one line is the base unit of information. Each line then corresponds to a vector. Instead of scanning continuously, information is drawn line-byline, hence the name stroke-writer. These systems off-load the refreshing tasks to spe- 11-32 cial hardware, making the system slightly more cost-effective. Still, during the 1960's making them proved too expensive for everyday applications. In 1971, Tek1ronix introduced the Direct View Storage Tube (DVST) for displaying and interfacing graphic data. It was based on oscilloscope techniques, storing information in a special, long-persistence phosphor which coats the inside of the screen. The display resolution is limited only by the phosphor grain size and the quality of the deflection circuitry. Although inexpensive, these devices were fine for oscilloscopes in the lab, but too cumbersome for fully interactive work. When the screen would redraw itself after the entry of new information, the sudden disappearance and reappearance was almost like looking at the light of a camera flashbulb. Another problem with the storage refresh screen was that when new information entered, it would write directly over the existing information. Only upon refreshing the screen would the new information be clear and readable. In many cases, the annoyance did not justify the low cost. Bit-Mapped Graphics In a bit-mapped graphics system, the screen is divided into individual elements called pixels, short for picture elements. When they say "bit-mapped", each pixel corresponds to a bit, or, in most cases, an address or memory location. This is what differentiates television from bit-mapped computer displays. Although both systems use raster scanning techniques, the information transmitted on television is continuous - a stream of analog information between horizontal sync pulses (the pulses used to denote the beginning and end of a horizontal line) - whereas in bit-mapped systems, each line is divided into discrete elements (the aforementioned pixels). The approximation of analog images would then be determined by the pixel density or screen resolution. As an example, Figure 3 shows a line approximated by a finite number of pixels. The lines seem to staircase rather than flow because of the enlargement of the pixels. The effect is known in some computer graphics circles as "jaggies", short for jagged edges. So, with more pixels, better resolution is possible. This is not without a price, though. Since each pixel corresponds to a memory location, memory cost rises dramatically as pixel resolution increases. Drawing speed Signetics Linear Products Application Note NE5150j51j52 Family of Video Digifal-fo-Analog Converters means that there are 4 bit·planes and each pixel would have to pierce all four planes to give the proper information (see Figure 4) . This is a fairly quick way to draw the screen since the data goes directly from the bit·map to the DAC (Digital/Analog Converter; DAC is singular here since the display is mono· chrome) . ..................... ...................... ................. .. -- ------_................. :;....... ..." 11 ...................... ••~ .......-r..-:-.::•••.•• 13 10 12 15 14 17 16 18 19 D B - - HORIZONTAL TRACES •••••••••• HORIZONTAL RETRACES - - VERTICAL FLYBACK TIME HTRACES DEFLECTING SIGNAL AMPLITUDE HRETRACES ~----VTRACE_I VI~VTRACE_ V RETRACE TIMERETRACE NOTES: A sample scanning pattern for 21 interlaced lines per frame and 10V2 lines per field.

Interlaced Raster for 21-Llne System Figure 3. Ideal Line and Its Discrete Pixel Representation must also increase since more pixels have to be drawn to maintain the ;;. 30Hz frame rate needed to avoid flicker. Clearly then, the increase in bit·mapped graphics systems can be tied to the continuing price reductions in memory, specifically, the Dynamic Random Access Memory (DRAM). Fortunately, as the price has dropped, the memory size has not stood still. The last 14 years have seen size increases from 4k to 16k, 16k to 64k, 64k to 256k, and now, 256k to 1M bits of memory. One might expect to see DRAMs on the order of 4Mb within 2 to 3 years. Additionally, the February 1987 continuing development of video RAMs can· not be ignored. A bit·mapped system might be described in one of three ways. First, assume the display is monochrome and that each pixel can be represented by a certain number, for in· stance, 4 bits of information. This means that there are 24 = 16 possible values of shading. Each bit of information can be represented by a "plane" of information. The plane would correspond to the area that was mapped by the pixels, namely the drawing area or dis· play. Imagine an 8 X 8 pixel display. This 11-33 AN1081 A direct conversion system for color is the second step. This is just an upgrade of the first case. Instead of 4 bit·planes, there are 12: three sets of the 4 planes for the three primary colors red, green, and blue. The advantage here is that there are now 212 = 4096 different colors, but the corre· sponding disadvantage is that the memory requirement has tripled. For more bit resolu· tion per pixel, the associated memory de· mands increase by 3 times the pixel size times n, where n is the additional bit of resolution per pixel. The third type of bit·map system uses a color look·up table (CLUT) as the driver for the display. The operation is straightforward. As the controller scans the bit·map each time it comes upon a pixel, it retrieves the bits which are then decoded into an address. This address is a pointer to the look·up table where sixteen 12-bit words (colors) are stored (see Figure 5). Once selected, that word is then sent to the color DACs and, from there, to the screen. The idea is similar to that of having cache memory in a computer, a fast memory used when the information in the memory is frequently accessed. Note that the bit·planes grow as n for 2n additional colors while memory grows for 3n in the direct conversion case, a definite savings in memo· ry. The limitation in this case is that only 16 colors can be displayed at a time. In some systems, however, the CLUT is fast enough to be reloaded during the horizontal retrace time (CLUT size is sometimes referred to as the maximum number of colors that can be displayed on one horizontal line). This is especially important if the image is to simu· late a smooth motion such as the rotation of a merry·go·round or the movement of an object with mirrored surfaces. In most cases, 16 colors is sufficient for any single display. 64 colors (6 bit·planes) is ex1remely good. 256 colors (8 bit·planes) is definitely a lUXUry. It's clear that the memory speed and memory density, which are direct functions of the color and screen resolution, playa large part in the feasibility of a bit·mapped system. For that reason, the enormous gains and technologi· cal advancements in the field of memory design have made bit·mapped raster·scan graphic systems the best choice for both cost and performance. • Signetics Linear Products Application Note NE5150j51j52 Family of Video Digifal-fo-Analog Converters AN1081 Display resolution determines how many pixels can be projected onto the monitor at any one time. (Actually, only one pixel is displayed on the screen at a time, in rapid succession). Table 1 shows commonly-used screen resolutions corresponding to various applications. PLANEO_~ However, since each pixel must correspond to a memory element, the more pixels per screen the faster the DAC and video RAM must be in order to write the information to the screen fast enough to avoid flicker. This imposes speed requirements that have to be satisfied. Figure 4.

Color Bit-Map With 16-Word Color Look-Up Table ISSUES FOR GRAPHIC DISPLAY SYSTEMS Making the DAC Fit the Application When designing graphic display systems, there are many decisions to be made in specifying the hardware and software needed for a system. What kind of speed is necessary in a given application? What kind of resolution will the users of the system require? Is color needed or will monochrome be adequate? If color, how many colors? Will images be viewed in two or three dimensions? How much memory is needed? How should the microprocessor/CRT controller/video DAC/ frame buffer be matched with the rest of the February 1987 system? What's the best type of software for a particular application? and on and on... These questions could form the subject of an entire book and so will not be discussed in detail. This section will, however, discuss the few issues needed in the selection of the proper video DAC for a system. Display Resolution vs Bit Resolution When the quality of a display terminal is being evaluated, one primary consideration is the kind of resolution it has. There are two different types of resolution: display resolution, which is determined by the monitor and cannot be changed by the design; and bit resolution, which is dependent on the design of the video DAC used. 11-34 The other type of resolution, bit resolution, depends on the type of DAC used. The number of bits converted also determines the size of the color palette which is the number of possible colors that can be displayed. This should not be confused with the number of colors displayed at once (see Section on Color Look-Up Tables). Assuming that the monitor is an RGB-type, the bit resolution, n, must be multiplied by 3 to get the total bit resolution, 3n. Taking this number as 23n gives the size of our color palette. Table 2 shows common bit sizes for video DACs with their corresponding palettes. It should be clear that, if imaging is the goal, a higher bit resolution gives access to the assorted tones and mix1ures of colors that make color graphics as realistic as possible. The major problems associated with higherresolution DACs are that they are larger and more complex than lower-resolution DACs and tend to take longer for their signals to settle. This has a direct effect on selection of the proper DAC for a particular system because of the DAC's bandwidth and because of the need to weigh advantages and disadvantages of higher and lower bit resolutions. For a low-end personal computer graphics screen on which the pixels can actually be seen at arm's length, it makes little sense to have a bit resolution that shows flesh tones because the benefit of the large palette is defeated by a screen that shows jagged edges. On the other hand, having a high screen resolution with a limited amount of colors does not defeat the purpose in the same way-if many colors aren't needed. Integrated circuit layout, for instance, may not require thousands of colors - only enough to distinguish 12 - 15 masks; but sharply defined edges and zooming ability are needed to examine the circuit. The need for this user could be a bit resolution of 2 (64 colors) and a display resolution of 1024 X 1280. For all this talk of colors and bit resolution, monochrome should not be totally ignored. After ali, people got along fine with black and white TV for years before color came along.

Bit Resolution With Palette Size BITS/DAC RGB PALETTE SIZE 1 3 8 Digital RGB, "rainbow colors" APPLICATION 2 6 64 Some home and personal computers For the 60Hz frame rate, the screen is probably not interlaced. Interlacing the screen at 30Hz would give the same effect because interlacing gives the illusion that the screen is being refreshed at a faster rate. The DAC would only have to operate at a quarter of the speed of the 60Hz non-interlaced rate because only half of the lines are being drawn at a speed that's half the 60Hz frame rate. This is how scanning operates under the NTSC television standard. The FCC says that televisions can't refresh the screen faster than 30Hz, so interlacing was developed to get around it. There are no such restrictions in graphics monitors. In fact, there are monitors that have horizontal scan rates as much as 4 times faster (65kHz) than that for television (15.75kHz). Color Look-Up Tables: Yes or No? 1024 X 1024 1,049,000 85MHz As mentioned in the Bit·Mapped Graphics section, graphic systems may have direct conversion from a bit-map or they can use color look-up tables (CLUTs). It should be pointed out that one is not necessarily faster than the other. Speed depends primarily on the system. A fast CLUT is of no use if the external frame buffer can't load a new set of colors into the CLUT during the retrace time (horizontal or vertical). A video DAC without the CLUT may be faster since it can bypass the memory accesses needed for the CLUT, but, as seen in the Bit-Mapped Graphics section, the extra cost of the bit-planes (1 million additional bits for a 1024 X 1024 display) may be excessive, and accessing the additional planes may produce some design problems. 1024 X 1280 1,311,000 105MHz If a CLUT is needed, the size of the CLUT 1024 X 1500 1,536,000 125MHz 1500 X 1500 2,250,000 180MHz 2048 X 2048 4,195,000 330M Hz 4 12 4096 6 18 262,144 8 24 16,777,216 Color workstations, CAD/CAE High-end CAD/CAE, medical imaging Photographic quality reproduction Table 3.

All of the bit resolution can be done with one DAC to operate on the luminance, or brightness signal. In this case, the brightness resolution can be said to be 2n Remember, the decision to go with color or monochrome does not rest upon the designers of the graphics board. A monitor is either color or monochrome to begin with. Adding a color video DAC won't change that. DAC Speed The DAC's update rate or bandwidth is a crucial consideration in choosing a DAC if the type of monitor has already been specified. February 1987 For raster-scan systems, a few calculations can be made to determine the minimum speed required for the DAC. First of all, assume that the screen needs to be refreshed at 60Hz to avoid flicker. To account for the electron beam going back to the top to start the next frame, assume that the retrace time is 30% of the drawing time. Multiply the frame rate by 1.3 to account for the retrace. Thus, the minimum bandwidth for the DAC would be determined by the following formula: Speed (Hz) = 1.3 (retrace factor) # pixels X 60Hz (frame X 11-35 rate) should also be a major consideration. Each bit-plane added requires 2n more memory cells. Constraints on die-size and power requirements become apparent. Also, one must ask whether one needs 16, 32, 64, 128, or 256 colors on every line. This depends on the color resolution desired for the entire screen. An easy way to determine the system needs is to picture the most common scene that would be displayed. The general rule is that the more complex and three-dimensional the images that are required, the more variations and shading are needed to truly represent them. Conversely, if the image is simple and two-dimensional, fewer colors would be needed. An example of the former would be geological formations. For the latter, consider the colors of flags of the world's nations. Almost all of them can be displayed with a CLUT of 16 colors. Remember, this refers to the number of colors needed at anyone time. • Signetics Linear Products Application Note NE5150/51/52 Family of Video Digifal-fo-Analog Converters No flag has more than 16 colors. The range of colors available for display after CLUT refresh depends on the color resolution or the number of data bits for each pixel. Gamma Correction A problem encountered in both television systems and in display monitors in general is the gamma effect. This is due to the nonlinear relationship between light output and the signal voltage applied to a cathode-ray tube. Although it would be desirable to have the luminous output of the phosphors on the display to vary directly with the changes in the signal applied to it, they usually do not. Each monitor has its own characteristic, but the international convention is to assume that the fractional value of the luminous output can be approximated by raising the percentage of display signal input to the 2.2 power. For example, a 60% of full-scale input signal will result in 33% of the full-scale luminous output (0.6 2 .2 = 0.33). In Figure 6, the monitor does not respond linearly for a linear input Signal. Adding a gamma correction circuit can take care of this problem. 1,0 -:1J 0.9 .... :::> Q. .... :::> ,/ 0.8 0.7 GAMMA cORREcn~N /' 0.6 V 7'" f-- &, 0.3 0.2 II 0.1 o o / / / :~S~:~E- I I I / / / ,/ 0.1 0.2 0.3 0.4 0.5 0.6 0.7 0.8 0.9 1.0 SIGNALINPUT Figure 6. Monitor and System Response With Gamma Correction In the television industry, correction for this non-linearity takes place at the camera as the image is recorded. The camera takes the 2.2 root of its full-scale fractional value. This cancels the gamma effect and produces a linear system response. In graphics systems for which the image is generated from digital information, DACs convert the digital information into a voltage that drives the guns of the CRT. Basically, the systems designer has three choices: 1. Correct for gamma in the software. This can be done by using the 2.2 power/root compensation to pixel values before they are stored into the frame buffer. This could be an expensive addition to the software and might slow the overall sysFebruary 1967 2. Apply analog gamma correction in the hardware. The correction factor could be done with additional circuitry to the output of the DAC before it drives the monitor. As mentioned before, this presents an additional hardware overhead. This is not done, however, without some risks. Since every monitor has individual characteristics, the resulting correction would not look the same on every monitor. 3. Ignore the whole subject and accept the non-linearity of the luminous output as a characteristic of the system. Since most graphics applications are for the generation of images for specific problems and not for the lifelike reproduction of scenes (although it would be desirable), a gamma correction mechanism is unnecessary. This last approach seems to be the most prevalent solution since few, if any, DACs contain gamma correction circuitry. When graphics software designers select their colors, they do so for the best visual performance. This fine-tuning for colors and shading is really software gamma correction because they can select the digital information needed for colors and intenSity and see the results from the other side of the monitor. / 0.5 i 3 / *'.':W /l ~~ ~ 0 0.4 I-/-.-J.#~ z 0 ........ / j tem because of the added computation time. CIRCUIT FEATURES AND OPERATION This section covers the basic features and operation of the NE5150/51 152. The first two sections briefly discuss RS-170 and RS343A, the standards for color and monochrome video systems. The next section covers the composite video signal (CVS) that is specified in the two previous standards. RS-343A and RS-170 RS-170, the Electrical Performance Standards for Monochrome Television Studio Facilities, and RS-343A, the Electrical Performance Standards for High Resolution Monochrome Closed Circuit Television Cameras, were issued in November 1957 and September 1969, respectively, by the EIA (Electronic Industries Association). The specifications outlined in RS-343A determine the voltage levels required for the part. Composite Video Signal Shown in Figure 7 is a section of a composite video signal. With the exception of the BRIGHT function, the levels and tolerances are specified by RS-343A. Sync, Blank, and Setup The sync signal is situated 266mV (40 IRE) below the blanking level which lies 714mV 11-36 AN1081 (100 IRE) below the reference white level (next section). The sync signal synchronizes the monitor horizontal and vertical scanning. This, and the rest of the composite video signal, is not to be confused with the composite sync signal which is often used for a combined horizontal and vertical sync signal. The blank level lies just below the reference black level, separated by an amount known as the setup. The difference between reference white and the blanking level is defined as 100 IRE. Applying the blanking level voltage to the monitor input will reduce the CRT electron beam current so that there will be no visible trace of the electron gun on the phosphor. For televiSion, the setup is defined as the ratio between the reference white and the reference black level measured from the blanking level. It is usually expressed as a percentage. Basically, it's the difference between the reference black level and the composite blanking level. RS-343A has set the limits of the setup as 7.5 ± 5 IRE. Any value between 2.5 to 12.5% of the blanked picture signal can be designated as the setup (2.5-12.5 IRE or 17.65-69.25mV). Since the full-scale range of the video Signal represents 100 IRE, a percentage of the signal is synonymous with its IRE value. For the NE5150, the setup is 71mV or 10 IRE. Reference Black and White Reference black and white correspond to the signal levels for a maximum limit of black and white peaks. White corresponds to having all color guns on and black to having all guns off. The gray scale, which refers to the rest of the color values and contains a majority of the signal information, is defined by the amplitude between reference white and reference black. Since the reference white to blanking level is fixed at 100 IRE, the reference black level is determined by the setup. Since the setup can be between 2.5 and 12.5 IRE, the gray scale range must reflect those tolerances and so has a range of 92.5 ± 5 IRE (660.5mV ± 35.7mV). To allow for a BRIGHT function, the NE51501 51/52 family of video DACs were designed for a full-scale range (blank to reference white) of 675mV (about 94 IRE) and a grayscale range of 643mV (about 90 IRE). Using the BRIGHT function adds 71 mV (10 IRE) to the reference white value. For instance; in a 12-bit system like the NE5150/51 152, using 4 bits/DAC would enable us to resolve the gray scale range into 16 parts. For the NE5150, that would be about 40.1 mV (5.6 IRE) = 1 LSB. For 6 bits, 64 parts could be resolved, and for 6 bits, 256 parts.

Note output voltages in Logic Table are referenced to Vee for the NE5152 only. AaND Device Description and Operation Corresponding to the RS-343A requirements outlined in the previous section, the logic table indicates the output voltages given the digital inputs shown. Although the output voltages for the DACs are shown, the user should also know what is happening to the circuit and how the priority given to each function influences the output. [All ones (1111) is called zero-scale (ZS) and all zeroes (0000) is called full-scale (FS).) The BLANK command presets all the latches to all zeroes (0000) and sends the output to its blanking level of 100 ± 5 IRE below reference white (-71 mY) or about -746mV. When BRIGHT is on (a '1 'I, the output is raised 10 IRE (71mV or Y9th of full-scale) to -674mV. BLANK overrides WHITE and is overridden by SYNC. The WHITE command presets the latches to all ones (1111) and outputs -71mV to all DACs. When the BRIGHT command is on, this value is raised to OV. WHITE will be overridden by both SYNC and BLANK. February 1987 The SYNC command presets all of the latches to zeroes and turns on the BLANK switch. In addition, it turns on a 40 IRE switch (drops voltage 286mV) in the GREEN channel only. So the GREEN channel sits at 140 IRE down and the RED and BLUE channels will be 100 IRE below ground. TOP VIEW D1 D2 D3 The BRIGHT command turns off one current switch within the circuit and adds 10 IRE (71 mY) to the output levels of all three guns. This comes in handy if using a cursor (optional blinking) to brighten other parts of the screen. This switch cannot be overridden by any other switch. Referring to the pinouts of both the NE51501 52 and the NE5151 (see Figure 9), there are additional considerations. The WRITEG, WRITER, and WRITEs pins are the write enable pins for each of the 16 X 4 memories in the CLUT. When these pins are pulled High, the memory is then in the READ mode. This is the normal mode of operation. To write to the memory, one of the pins must be pulled Low. The data on DO - D3 will then be written to the memory location AD - A3 of the corresponding WRITE pin. 11·37 STROBE SYNC GREEN GND vee RED TOP VIEW Figure 8.

The positive edge of STROBE clocks the latches. Using Different Logic and Supply Voltages Different users have different needs. Some have access to dual supplies, other only to single-ended supplies. Signal logic may be TTL or ECL. In any case or configuration, the NES1S0/Sl/S2 family can be used. The following configurations cover most cases. The GREEN, RED, and BLUE pins are the analog outputs of the DACs. The DACs are voltage output and need no external components (7Sfl resistors are on-chip). The output voltage range is approximately 0 to -1 V and is independent of the input logic (either TTL or ECl). Explanation of the configurations are as follows: The DATA and ADDRESS bits are designated so that DO and AO represent the most significant data and address bits (MSB), respectively. Similarly, D3 and A3 correspond to the least significant data and address bits (lSB). Since the NE51S1 has no ClUT, there is no need for the address pins (4) or the write enable pins (3). Adding the NC (no connection) pin (1) gives the eight additional input pins for two 4-bit DACs. The original data bus now carries the logic for the RED gun. A. Case A shows a basic ECl configuration for the NES150 and NESI51. The signal voltage is basic ECl with a -1.3V threshold and is powered from ground and -SV (or -S.2V). Since the TTL buffers are no longer needed, Vee is tied to analog and digital ground (AGND and DGND), excluding the buffers from the circuit. B. In some cases, people use ECl logic but run it off a single supply, + SV and ground. In this case, operation is the same except that the supplies are shifted up SV. In this new ECl mode, the threshold -1.3V is moved up by SV to + 3.7V. ECl operation is not available for the NES1S2. Analog and digital ground (AGND and DGND) should always be connected together in any configuration and should not have more than SOmV of potential between them to insure proper operation of the device. The next section will cover connection of Vee and VEE, in addition to AGND and DGND, on different system configurations. C. For TTL operation in the NES1S0 and NES1Sl, dual supplies are normally needed. If available, standard TTL-level signals with a + I.4V threshold (between a logic 'I' low of 2.0V and a logic '0' High of 0.8V) can be connected directly. D. In some situations, a dual supply is not available. Single-supply TTL operation is made possible by making similar connections and by pulling up the inputs of each pin with a 10kfl resistor connected to Vee = + 5V. This is necessary because the threshold is now 3.7V. E. Case (D) necessitated the construction of the NE5152, which has only one mode using a single 5V supply and accepts TTL inputs. AGND and DGND become VeeA and VeeD and are tied to Vee. In some cases, a single supply is used and the internal ECl mode has been shifted up to the positive supply; the output voltage will be swinging from OV to -IV, but, referenced from Vee = +SV, it will swing from SV to 4V. If the monitor accepts only positive sync pulses or video information, DC-offsetting the outputs or AC-coupling them with I/lF capacitors would make the signal acceptable to the monitor. Since the outputs have internal 7Sfl resistors, the monitor should have a 7Sfl resistor to ground in order to doubly-terminate the cable and to prevent reflections.

NE5150/51/52 Block Diagrams February 1987 11-39 Signetics Linear Products Application Note NE5150j51j52 Family of Video Digifal-fo-Analog Converters AN1081 Circuit Description As can be seen from the block diagrams in Figure 13, the only difference between the NE5150/52 and the NE5151 is the lack of a color look-up table on the NE5151. Bypassing the CLUT with its assorted address decoding, sense amplifiers, and read/write logic enables it to not only use 200mW less power, but also to increase its update rate to 150MHz. A ~-----~----~~-UV The NE5151 is basically the same die as the NE5150/52, with the exception of a metal mask option that permits it to bypass all of the circuitry associated with the CLUT. It is also bonded differently to enable all 12 bits to be loaded into the DAC at anyone time instead of being multiplexed 4 bits at a time to the NE5150/52 CLUT. DAC Reference The need for separate references for the DACs resulted from the problems associated with glitching and crosstalk between the DACs. When one DAC maintains a constant value through pixel updates, while another undergoes major transitions such as the 1111 to 0000 on/off switching of currents through the DAC, feedthrough can be expected if all 3 DACs derive their reference voltage from the same source. Having separate references solves this problem. It also isolates the DACs from each other and the other parts of the circuit. The reasons for choosing the DAC shown in Figure 12 are its simplicity, the bandgap's insensitivity to temperature variations, and its excellent supply rejection (PSRR) through high frequencies. It consists of a PTAT current source supplying a bandgap reference. The output of the bandgap is approximately -1.2V. To provide the bias for the different current sources on each of the DAC stages, the circuit uses a control amplifier that provides negative feedback to maintain its stability. BIT and its complement drive the differential pair that (along with OS2) makes up one part of the DAC. The bandgap drives the current sources through the control amplifier. If the bias line voltage should rise or fall, the negative feedback in the OSI and OS3 current path would correct for it. The control amplifier consists of a transconductance stage driving an emitter-follower. The output of the emitter-follower provides a low-output impedance line that drives OS4. The inclusion of OS4 prevents switching transients from degrading settling time. The control amplifier has a 60MHz unity-gain bandwidth, providing power supply rejection up into the VHF range. February 1987 3k 4k 30 VEE 0--+---------' Figure 11_ Bandgap Reference for DAC (1 of 3) Dlgltal-to-Analog Converters The three DACs consist of differential pairs that are switched on or off depending on the value of the bits. Each of the transistors switches a different amount of current depending on the significance of each bit (see Figure 13). Although only one transistor is shown for each bit, the circuit actually has several transistors in parallel to get the required current. In this case, B3 is the least significant bit since it switches the least amount of current and would produce the smallest voltage drop across the 75>1. load resistor. The reverse is true for BO, the most significant bit, since it draws the most current. So for all bits low, 0000, all of the current would go through the load resistor, bringing the output voltage to its lowest point. If all three DACs are low, this would correspond to reference BLACK. All bits high, or 1111, shunt current away from the load and leave the output voltage at reference WHITE. Different combinations of bits give 16 values between WHITE and BLACK. One additional 2mA switch is turned on by the input value of BRIGHT, which level-shifts the output by Y9th the full-scale value, or about 10%. The BLANK and SYNC pins work in a similar manner. Refer to the Logic Table beside Figure 8 for the output voltages for each of these functions. Some of the problems associated with DACs can be attributed to switching glitches, usually measured in terms of glitch energy. Glitching occurs when digital switching of the transistors causes spikes onto the collectors of the 11-40 current sources to each of the differential pairs. These current spikes charge the collector-base capaCitance, CJC, of the collector transistor, and result in a slower settling time. The asymmetrical turn-on/ off behavior of bipolar transistors and mismatched load bitwiring capacitances also contribute to glitches. This can also be seen as an overshoot of the waveform, a "glitch" on the rising or falling edge of what should look like a square wave. Signals that overshoot the desired analog output level consequently take longer to settle to their final value. The measure of this overshoot is the glitch energy, usually given in pV-sec. The units do not actually work out as units of energy or Joules, which is C-V (Coulomb-Volts), but result from measuring the area of the glitch [Area = Height (V) X Width (psec)]. The NE5150/51/52 resolves this problem by putting the current sources in series with another set of transistors (see Figure 14). The stage below the differential pair is then biased by a low-impedance line which reduces the effect of the current spiking. The biasing for the lower transistor comes from the control amplifier mentioned in the DAC Reference Section. Video DAC Timing For the NE5150 and NE5152, the presence of the memory dictates both a READ and a WRITE cycle, whereas the NE5151 needs only one diagram. The explanation of each of the waveforms can be found in the timing glossary. For the guaranteed specifications, the user is referred to the data sheet. Application Note Signetics Linear Products AN1081 NE5150/51/52 Family of Video Digital-to-Analog Converters NE5150/52 (With CLUT) In the NE5150/52 READ cycle, the GOMPOSITE signal refers to either the WHITE, BRIGHT, BLANK, or SYNG signals. The read composite hold time, tRCH, is defined from the rising edge of the strobe to the end of the composite pulse. This is the required time the composite signal must remain on the bus for latching. The time between the end of the composite pulse to the next rising edge of the strobe defines the read composite setup time, tRCS' This is the same as the read address setup time, tRAS' The read DAG delay time, tRDD, is the propagation time of the signal through the device clocked from the strobe to the 50% change of the DAG output. Rl 300 This timing diagram is similar to the READ cycle of the NE5150/52 with the exception that addresses are not clocked to the GLUT; instead, data bits are sent directly to the DACs. In this case, tDH is analogous to the address hold time in the NE5150/52. All other definitions are analogous to the earlier READ case. WORKSTATION APPLICATION Introduction This section describes the design of a color graphics interface for the Modula, Inc. Lilith Workstation. The workstation initially loads 16 colors (it only requires 16) into the NE5150's color look-up table. After the colors are loaded, the workstation then generates addresses to the look-up table. The entire color range (4096) is not required in this application. February 1987 t----+-- VOUT ..l---iE--=~-- BIAS BIAS BANDGAP (-1.2V) CONTROL AMPLIFIER In the WRITE cycle, tWAS, the write address setup time is defined by the start of address to the falling edge of the write enable strobe. At the end of this time, data can be written to the GLUT. Both ADDRESS and DATA must remain latched until they reach the rising edge of the WRITE ENABLE. This defines the WRITE ENABLE pulse width, tWEW' The data should also be latched at the same time as the address. The start of the data (and address) to the end of the write enable pulse is defined as tWDS, or the write data setup time. After the write pulse finishes, an address and data hold time is also specified. NE5151 (No CLUT) Since the NE5151 has no memory for the signal to propagate through, it typically has a faster conversion time. As can be seen from the pinouts, the three 4-bit words enter the DAG simultaneously as opposed to the sequential 4-bit loading scheme used in the NE5150/52. With no memory, there's no need for READ or WRITE cycles and so there is only one standard timing diagram. (See Figure 16). RL 75 '-------t: QS4 -----+-----.V~ Figure 12.

Simplified Schematic of DAC (1 of 3) The LILITH Workstation The Lilith Workstation is a 16-bit workstation manufactured by Modula, Inc. It was originally designed by Niklaus Wirth and his students at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (ETH). The Lilith is a Modula-2 computing engine. In its original package, the Lilith includes 256kB of memory, a 15MB Winchester disk drive, a floppy disk, a mouse, and an 832 X 640 monochrome graphics tube. The Signetics Logic DeSign Group in Orem, Utah, has modified the Lilith by adding 2MB of memory and a high-resolution 1024 X 1024 color monitor. The changes made to the Lilith graphics section comprise the bulk of this application description. Benchmarks of the 11-41 modified workstation have shown that its performance on applications ranging from matrix multiplications to complete circuit analysis is approximately half as fast as a VAX 111780 minicomputer. In addition to the circuit simulator used, the Signetics-modified Lilith also supports a layout editor, SLED, that uses about 10,000 lines of Modula-2 source code. More detailed information on the Lilith can be obtained from the manufacturer and from the articles listed in the reference section. For the purposes of this application, it is sufficient to know that the Lilith contains a 16bit data bus for interaction with the SCC63484 Advanced CRT Controller and a • Application Note Signetics Linear Products NE5150j51j52 Family of Video Digital-to-Analog Converters AN1081 14-bit bus that is used to initialize the color look-up table in the NE5150 video DAC. Read/write, I/O lines, CLOCK, data acknowledge, and chip select signals are also sent to the SCC63484 for data and control purposes. Software Aspects (Pascal and Modula-2) Modula-2 is a superset of Pascal. Anyone with a working knowledge of Pascal should have no trouble programming a Lilith workstation or in understanding the initialization program outlined in this section. Some noteworthy features about Modula-2 and its influence on the architecture of the Lilith (the Mmachine) is the fact that the Lilith instruction set (M-code) has only 256 carefully chosen instructions. This limits any instruction to alB length and increases the speed of operation. The Modula-2 language constructs map neatly to M-code. There are no excess instructions to add extra baggage. For additional details, the reader is referred to the August 1984 issue of BYTE magazine that contains several good articles on Modula-2. Considering each '1' as ON and each '0' as OFF, the binary values for each color can be specified for each of the respective guns. Starting from the top, all guns OFF = BLACK. Similarly, all guns ON corresponds to word 7, WHITE. In the software definition module used to load the values, two constants were declared: black = 0 and white = 15. These correspond to the addresses shown in the table and were predefined because of their frequent use. Single guns completely ON give 1, 2, and 4 - the primary colors RED, GREEN, and BLUE, respectively. VEE ----+------ Figure 14. Low-Z Bias Line to Improve Settling Time of DAC ADDRESS DATA WRITE ENABLE Figure 15. NE5150/52 READ and WRITE Cycle Timing Diagrams System Hardware The basic system configuration for the color graphics interface is shown below. The Lilith workstation sends data to the SCC63484 and the NE5150. The information sent to the NE5150 is the data for the CLUT initialization. Control signals are sent to the ACRTC. The ACRTC in turn controls the video DAC. The frame buffer sends and receives data (via an address/data buffer stage) to and from the ACRTC for video DAC addressing. The ACRTC also provides horizontal and vertical sync to the CRT while the video DAC supplies the video information. One stage not shown is the address and data buffering for the frame buffer and the pixel stage. This stage, in addition to assorted logic and timing chips, merely facilitates functionality between the major blocks shown in Figure 22. The host microprocessor, system memory, and DMA control are local to the workstation and will not be described. The horizontal and vertical deflection sections are local to the CRT and will also be omitted. The rest of this section supplies an overall parts list and then describes each of the graphics blocks in somewhat greater detail. Although the actual February 1987 COMPOSITE STROBE DATA BITS DACOUTPUT Figure 16. NE5151 Timing Diagram pin numbers have been omitted, the functionality of each' pin is shown for understanding. For actual pinouts and more detailed information, refer to the appropriate data sheet.

Video DACs are hybrid devices in the sense that they are both analog and digital. They are also run at frequencies well into the RF range. This makes them especially susceptible to RF interference and different types of radiation. Signal traces should be kept as short as possible and 90· turns should be avoided. Power supplies should have adequate decoupiing. DATA (CWTDATA) HOST MICROPRocessOR "'.--"::':===---.,...1 Figure 17.

The monitor has 1024 X 1024 display resolution. Of these, 1024 X 768 pixels are actually drawn, giving us about 790,000 pixels, and, according to our earlier formulas, requiring a DAC with a conversion frequency of about 62MHz. That, however, assumes a non-interlaced display with a frame rate of 60Hz. This application uses a 30Hz interlaced display and so it needs only one-fourth that speed since it is drawing half as many lines at half of the frame rate. The pixel clOCk is derived from a 40MHz crystal. Other timing signals are also derived from the same crystal.

February 1987 11-43 • Application Note Signetics Unear Products AN1081 NE5150/51/52 Family of Video Digital-fo-Analog Converters ADVANCED CRT CONTROLLER VCC~+5V=r. The Signetics SCC63484 is a state·of-the-art device ideal for controlling raster-scan-type CRTs. It is a CMOS VLSI system that can control both text and graphics. One of the advantages of this part is its ability to do onboard graphic processing in its Drawing and Display Processor, relieving some of the computational overhead from the Lilith. ~'ULL PUu,up r~m~ Figure 18. Circuit for Pull·Up to Vce The interface uses a 512kByte frame buffer that is organized as 64k by 64·bit words. Within each 16-bit block of memory (1 of 4 per word), there are 4 pixels of 4 bits each. Each bit supplies an address to the Color Look-Up Table in the Video DAC. The interface shifts out 64-bits or 16 pixels of information during each display cycle. In each of the following schematics certain pins have been pulled up to Vce, indicated by an arrow. For each arrow pointing to PULLUP, the connection goes into the pull-up circuit shown below. Another attractive feature of the part is its flexibility. It has three different operating modes: character only, graphic only, and multiplexed character/graphic mode. In addition, it offers three scanning modes: noninterlace, interlace sync (this application), and interlace sync and video modes. With 2MB of graphic memory and a maximum drawing speed of 2 million pixels/second, it can supply the information to almost any type of highresolution display (4096 X 4096 pixels maximum). For additional information on the command set and a full listing of features, please refer to the data sheet and user's manual. This application note will concentrate on only the interconnections relevant to this application. In this configuration (Figure 19), the SCC63484 Graphics Controller provides the horizontal and vertical sync pulses to the CRT and important timing pulses to the address and data buffers. It supplies timing to the frame buffer, the pixel-shifting stage, and to CPULL is used for decoupling any power line ripple. Each point has a similar circuit. the frame buffer through direct and logical modifications made to the following system outputs: 1. MRD-Memory Read or the Bus Direction Control Line. This determines the bus direction for the Frame Buffer Data Bus. 2. DRAW - the Drawing/Refresh Cycle pin. This differentiates between drawing cycles and CRT display refresh cycles. 3. AS - Address Strobe. This provides the address strobe for demultiplexing the frame buffer/data bus (MADO/MAD15). 4. MCYC - Memory Clock. Provides the frame buffer memory access timing. Equal to one-half the frequency of 2CLK signal. 5. DISPl - Display Enable Timing. This is a programmable display enable timing signal used to selectively enable, disable, and blank logical screens. 6. MADO - MAD15 - Address and Data Bus. Multiplexed frame buffer address/ data bus. 7. MA16, MA 17 - Address Bits/Rasier Address Outputs.

The ACRTC also provides horizontal and vertical sync pulses directly to the CRT via the HSYNC and VSYNC outputs. In Figure 19, the 16-bit bus of the Lilith is connected directly to the data inputs. The Lilith also provides a write signal (DST) to the R/W input. The first I/O line (IIOAO) is connected to the RS (Register Select) input. In addition, there is a high-order I/O bank select, three lower-order address lines, and a negative true I/O clock that, used with the 74138 Decoder, selects one of 4 devices: the ACRTC or 3 areas in the NE5150's color look-up table. On the ACRTC, a 74123 one-shot produces a reset pulse (RES) on power-up. The Data Acknowledge pin is not used and is pulled up to Vee. AN1081 ADDRESS AND DATA BUFFERING The address and data buffer stage provides an interface between the SCC63484 and the rest of the circuit. This stage takes the address/ data lines MADO - MAD15 and separates them into two blocks. The 74F373 latches the upper bank for the addresses; this is the first bank. The second bank consists of 74F245 transceivers in the lower bank for the data. ~o-----~>o----~----------------------------------, ENABLE ENABLE QOI---~--""'::';;".., 74F373 QO-Q7 74F373 011----+-...;;::.:.:; TO nMING MAA8-MAA15 MAAO-MAA7 MACe MCYC .--------loa TO TIMING 74F139 311----------, 28 11 FROM SCC63484 • MAI»-MAD7 16 16 MAI»-MAD15 MAD8-MAD15 MRDo----------1 1---4-----1 TO VIDEO RAM AND PIXEL SHIFTING Figure 20. Address and Data Buffering February 1987 11-45 Signetics Unear Products Application Note NE5150/51/52 Family of Video Digital-to-Analog Converters The 74F373s are used to latch the addresses at the beginning of every memory cycle. The latches are enabled by the AS signal coming from the ACRTC. Since the ACRTC is configured to increment its display addresses by four between display cycles, 4 words or 64 bits are shifted out every cycle. For modifying memory cycles, the two lower address lines are used to enable one of four sets of 74F245 transceivers (2 per set). Enabling is performed by the 74F139 Decoder. The signal that clocks the decoder is a combination of MCYC (Memory Cycle) and DRAW, that results in a new signal, MACC. This signal is also used in the timing block. ments grows exceedingly complicated as the number of components grows. It becomes even more apparent when the components are individual systems with their own set of timing considerations. In our case, this means the Lilith, the ACRTC, and the frame buffer. Figure 21 shows the many elements it takes to generate the timing signals for the system. In the middle of the diagram, there are two 74F164 8-bit serial-in/parallel-out shift registers that count the timing states for the rest of the interface. The Address Strobe (AS) signal, coming from the ACRTC, starts and ends this timing train. Because of the pulse width of AS, many states at the end of the train are unusable. The video RAM FiAS signal (Row Address Strobe) starts at the beginning of State 1, and terminates as AS goes Low, activating the register's MR (Master Reset). The precharge requirement of RAS is met by the AS pulse width. The transceiver outputs are now written into the frame buffer. From there, they will be sent to the pixel-shifting stage and then to the DAC. Each set of four 4-bit pixels in a serial string of displayed pixels is contained in a different block of memory. This is the reason the two lower-order address signals are used to select one of the four banks in the Video RAM (frame buffer). The 74F157 Multiplexers are connected in such a way that the lower-order addresses are used for the video RAM row addresses (the 157 on top). At the beginning of State 3, the higher-order addresses are presented at the Video RAM address inputs as the column address. At State 5 the CAS signal becomes SYSTEM TIMING In a system as complicated as a graphics display board, the timing of the various ele- AN1081 valid. Because of changes in the data hold (WRITE cycle) and data setup (READ cycle) of the ACRTC, the timing edge of CAS might have to be changed to insure proper operation. MRD (Memory Read) along with a combination of MCYC and DRAW from the Address and Data Buffer called MACC, are used with the two lowest-order address lines from the 74F373s (MAAO and MAA1) to write-select one of the four memory planes (this memory plane runs orthogonal to the bit-planes discussed earlier). Because this signal comes well before the CAS signal, this qualifies as an early WRITE cycle, allowing the use of DRAMs with Data-In and Data Out signals connected together. Using two flip-flops, the output of the lower shift register generates the PE (Parallel Enable) signal for the pixel-shifting stage. Because it is clocked from the fifth point in the shifter, this pulse occurs between States 10 and 11. The upper left-hand corner of Figure 21 shows the creation of the 2CLK signal derived from the 40MHz pixel clock by using a 74Ft61 Counter that performs a divide-byeight operation.

These modules are SIPs (single inline packages) and were used because of space considerations. Each module consists of eight 64k X l-bit DRAMs, giving eight modules of 64k X 8 or a 64k x 64 buffer. This buffer is divided into four sections (64k X 16) that represent the four bits of address that are shifted out to the NE5150's CLUT. pixel are shifted out simultaneously before going to the 74F157 multiplexer. From there, they address the colors of the CLUT on the Video DAC. PIXEL SHIFTING The pixel-shifting stage consists of 8 very fast 74F166 Shift Registers divided into 4 banks, one for each address bit. These shift registers have maximum operating frequencies of 120MHz. VIDEO RAM The data comes from the address and data buffering and the video RAM. The PE (Parallel Enable Input) signal from the system timing block activates the register, while the pixel clock, DCLK, strobes each of the registers. All chips are permanently enabled by grounding their chip enable (CE) pins. The master reset (MR) is permanently disabled by tying it to a pull-up. The phrase "Video RAM" refers to a set of dynamic RAMs used as the memory section in this application. It is not meant to be confused with the Video RAM which is a dedicated device for video applications. One can see how the frame buffer is set up to shift out data to the pixel shifter. The memory is divided into 4 banks that are write-selected by the WEl - WE4 pulses. Two modules (64k X 16 bits) make up one bank. This makes up the four 16-bit words that are shifted out. But where is the information for each pixel? Taking the 1st bank as an example, it can be divided into 4 quadrants: The Video RAM or frame buffer section consists of 8 Fujitsu MB85103-10 modules. The 10 suffix signals a lOOns row access time. The cycle time is about 200ns, or about 5MHz.

Comparing diagrams reveals the same to be true for each of the quadrants in 11-48 each of the four banks of memory. Each quadrant, then, corresponds to one pixel, and all of the pixels for one bank are written out to the shift register during a write cycle. Signetics Linear Products Application Note AN1081 NE5150/51/52 Family of Video Digifal-fo-Analog Converters VIDEO DAC INTERFACE The interface to the NE5150 is shown in Figure 24. The 8·bit data bus comes from the lower 8 bits of the Lilith. The low 4 bits are connected directly to the Video DAC data inputs. Bits 4-7 are tied to the 74F157 Multiplexer. This provides the address to the CLUT when it is initialized. The other set of inputs to the multiplexer comes from the pixel·shifting stage. After the the BLANKing signal. Both of these signals come from the ACRTC and the system timing section. The WHITE, BRIGHT, and SYNC inputs are not utilized and are connected to ground. VEE is run off a 7905 voltage regulator powered by a -12V power supply. first CLUT initialization, all of the addresses come from the pixel·shifter. The inverters, NAND gates, and OR gates are used to delay the write pulses WRR, WRG, and WRB so that they fit into the address setup window. The chip select pulses come from the 74F138 which are selected by the Lilith. I/OCLK clocks the 74138 and the OR gates for the chip select. The capacitors to the monitor and voltage regulator are polarized with the positive end to the monitor for the RGB outputs and to ground for the regulator. The regulator uses Tantalum capacitors.

NE5150 Video DAC Interface February 1987 11-49 Signetics Linear Products Application Note NE5150/51/52 Family of Video Digital-to-Analog Converters GLOSSARY This glossary consists of three parts: a section for graphics terminology, one for the timing of the NE5150 used in the Lilith workstation application, and a list of references. For the glossary section, many analogies are made with television to clarify some terminology. GRAPHICS TERMINOLOGY ACRTC - Short for Advanced CRT Controller. A device that helps to interface a microprocessor or microcomputer with a monitor. Advanced refers to the Signetics ACRTC, the SCC63484, called advanced because of its ability to do most of its graphics computations on-board, thus relieving some of the workload from the microprocessor and increasing its overall efficiency. Bit-Map, Bit-Plane - A memory representation in which one or more bits correspond to a pixel. For each bit used in the representation of a pixel, there is a plane on which it can be mapped. To represent each pixel by 4 bits, 4 bit planes are needed. This is the case whether the bits store the actual data for the pixel or hold the address of the memory location containing the data. Blanking - The process of turning off an electron gun so that it leaves no trace on the screen as it returns to the left or top of the screen in a raster-scan system. Applies to both television sets and monitors. The period for the blanking is defined as the horizontal blanking and the vertical blanking interval for their respective cases. CRT - Short for Cathode Ray Tube, a type of electron tube that produces an electron beam that strikes the phosphor-coated screen, causing that screen to emit light. Chromlnance - The color information supplied in a signal. While this information has to be extracted by color decoders in television (via phase differencing with a fixed-frequency subcarrier), in computer monitors and bitmapped systems it is supplied digitally and then converted to analog to directly drive color guns. Color Look-up Table - Sometimes referred to as the ClUT, it is associated with a Video DAC and speeds system access of oftenused colors. The time savings results because a color can be generated by sending a ClUT address to the DAC instead of loading a word from external memory. Current ClUTs range in size from 16 to 256 words. Word length depends on the bit resolution of the DAC. DAC - Short for Digital-to-Analog Converter. Most DACs have a single output. Some have February 1987 as many as eight. RGB Video DACs have three - one for each of the primary colors. Video DACs typically operate at very high speeds since they have to supply a new piece of information for each pixel on the screen at rates of 30 to 80 times per second. ECl - Short for Emitter-Coupled-logic. A fast, non-saturating form of bipolar logic that usually operates from 0 to -5.2V. It has a threshold of -1.3V. Frame Buffer - Sometimes used interchangeably with video RAM. A frame buffer is a large, fast-access store of memory that contains the digital information necessary to display part or all of a display. It is used in conjunction with bit-mapped graphic systems. It actually "stores" the bit-plane. Glitch Energy - The area displaced by an analog signal as it overshoots or undershoots its ideal value. This is a problem usually found in DACs. Units are usually given in pV-s. When glitch energy is high, settling times tend to be longer and may result in visual color aberrations on the screen. Hue - The actual color(s) on a monitor. The hue depends on the frequency of the light striking the human eye. For television transmission, it is determined by the video signal's phase difference with a color subcarrier reference frequency. For computer graphics systems, it is determined by the combination of binary values applied to the DAC. The resolution of hue/colors is determined by the bit length of each word of information. Lilith - The brand name of the workstation manufactured by Modulo, Inc. of Provo, UT. luminance - The brightness information in a video Signal. A black and white (monochrome) monitor displays only variations in brightness. Only a luminance signal is being manipulated. The same holds true for television. Although chrominance information is also present in a television signal, B/W TV sets do not have the necessary decoders. Modula-2 - A language that is the superset of Pascal. This was also invented by Niklaus Wirth of the Swiss Technological Institute. NTSC - Short for the National Television Standards Committee, the ruling body for television standards in the United States. Other countries also use this standard as is, or with a different frequency for the color subcarrier. Orthogonal - Defined as being mutually perpendicular. The product of Iwoorthogonal vectors is zero. In bit-mapped systems, the bit length of a word lies orthogonal to the plane itself. Hence, each plane supplies only one bit of information for each pixel. 11-50 AN1081 Pixel - Short for "picture element". The smallest resolvable element on a graphics display. Each pixel usually corresponds to at least one bit. The entire display is made up of a map of pixels. The term bit-map comes from the bit association. There is no equivalent in television. What is seen is the true analog representation of what is being recorded by a camera and then retraced on horizontal lines. Raster-Scan - The form of visual display transmission used in all television sets and in most monitors. It consists of an electron beam tracing a path from left-to-right while going top-to-bottom. Saturation - The "deepness" of a color. Usually depends on the amplitude of the color Signal in television systems. Red and pink are the same hue, but red is actually more saturated than pink. In graphics systems, there is no true equivalent. Changing bitvalues changes the color itself. The closest analogy would be to raise or lower the voltages on all three color guns simultaneously (the BRIGHT function on the NE5150/51/ 52). This WOUld, however, depending on the amplitude change, give the impression of brightening or dimming the color (changing luminance) rather than saturating it. Sync - The voltage level specified in RS343A as being 140 IRE (1 V) below the enhanced white level (ground). It is also 40 IRE (286mV) below the blanking level. Generically it is also used to refer to vertical and horizontal sync pulses that synchronize the timing and movement of the electron beam on a CRT. It should not be confused with "composite sync". Teletext - A form of data transmission via television signals. In many cases, digital information is sent during the vertical blanking interval (VB I). In some cases, it is sent during every retrace. This is known as full-field teletext. TTL - Short for Transistor-Transistor logic. It has a threshold voltage of approximately lAV and is the most widely-used form of logic in the world today.

The IC incorporates 3-State switches which comprise: a) An electronic video swHch wHh selectable gain (times 1 or times 2) jor switching between an internal video signal (from the IF amplifier) with an auxiliary Input signal. February 12. 1987 ps 2 b) Two electronic audio switches. for two sound channels (stereo or dual language). for switching between internal audio sources and' signals from the auxiliary video/ audio plug. A selection can be made between two input signals and an OFF-state. The OFF-state is necessary if more than one TDA8440 device is used. The SDA and SCl pins can be connected to the 12C bus or to DC switching voltages. Inputs So (Pin 11). S, (Pin 13). and S2 (Pin 6) are used for selection of sub-addresses or' switching to the non-1 2C mode. Inputs So. S,. and S2 can be connected to the supply voltage (H) or to ground (l). In this way. no peripheral components are required for selection. NON-1 2C BUS CONTROL If the TDA8440 switching device has to be operated via the auxiliary video/audio plug. inputs S2.

The gain is flat to ± O.SdB from DC to 200M Hz. The -3dB bandwidth is greater than 3S0MHz. This performance makes the amplifier ideal for cable TV applications. The NE/SAS204 operates with a single supply of 6V, and only draws 25mA of supply current, which is much less than comparable hybrid parts. The noise figure is 4.8dB in a 7S,n system and 6dB in a SO,n system. The NE/SA5204 is a relaxed version of the NES20S. Minimum guaranteed bandwidth is relaxed to 350MHz and the "S" parameter MinIMax limits are specified as typicals only. Until now, most RF or high-frequency designers had to settle for discrete or hybrid solutions to their amplification problems. Most of these solutions required trade-offs that the designer had to accept in order to use high-frequency gain stages. These include high power consumption, large component count, transformers, large packages with heat sinks, and high part cost. The NE/ SAS204 solves these problems by incorporating a wideband amplifier on a single monolithic chip. The part is well matched to 50 or 75,n input and output impedances. The standing wave ratios in SO and 7S,n systems do not exceed 1.S on either the input or output over the entire DC to 3S0MHz operating range. No external components are needed other than AC-coupling capacitors because the NE/SAS204 is internally compensated and matched to 50 and 75,n. The amplifier has very good distortion specifications, with second and thirdorder intermodulation intercepts of + 24dBm and + 17dBm, respectively, at 100MHz. The part is well matched for SO,n test equipment such as signal generators, oscilloscopes, frequency counters, and all kinds of signal analyzers. Other applications at 50,n include mobile radio, CB radio, and data/video transmission in fiber optiCS, as well as broadband LANs and telecom systems. A gain greater than 20dB can be achieved by cascading additional NE/SA5204s in series as required, without any degradation in amplifier stability.

Referring to the circuit schematic ir. Figure 15, the gain is set primarily by the equation: Your v;;;- NEjSA5204 The DC input voltage level VIN can be determined by the equation: (3) where REI = 12n, VSE = O.BV, ICI = 5mA and IC3 = 7mA (currents rated at Vcc = 6V). (1) Under the above conditions, VIN is approximately equal to 1V. which is series-shunt feedback. There is also shunt-series feedback due to RF2 and RE2 which aids in producing wide-band terminal impedances without the need for low value input shunting resistors that would degrade the noise figure. For optimum noise performance, REI and the base resistance of 0, are kept as low as possible, while RF2 is maximized. Level shifting is achieved by emitter-follower 03 and diode 0 4 , which provide shunt feedback to the emitter of 0, via RFI. The use of an emitter-follower buffer in this feedback loop essentially eliminates problems of shuntfeedback loading on the output. The value of RFI = 140n is chosen to give the desired nominal gain. The DC output voltage Your can be determined by: = (RFI + RE1)/REl The noise figure is given by the following equation: [rb+RE1+~]} dB NF = 10Log [ 1 + _ _ _ _-=2"'q"'ICl Ro (2) where ICI = 5.5mA, REI = 12n, rb = 130n, KT Iq = 26mV at 25'C and Ro = 50 for a 50n system and 75 for a 75n system. Your = Vcc - (IC2+ Ics)R2, where Vcc = 6V, R2 IC6 = 5mA. = 225n, (4) IC2 = 7mA and From here, it can be seen that the output voltage is approximately 3.3V to give relatively equal positive and negative output swings. Diode 05 is included for bias purposes to allow direct coupling of RF2 to the base of 0,. The dual feedback loops stabilize the DC operating point of the amplifier. The output stage is a Darlington pair (06 and 02) which increases the DC bias voltage on the input stage (0,) to a more desirable value, and also increases the feedback loop gain. Resistor Ro optimizes the output VSWR (Voltage Standing Wave Ratio). Inductors L, and L2 are bondwire and lead inductances which are roughly 3nH. These improve the high-frequency impedance matches at input and output by partially resonating with 0.5pF of pad and package capacitance. POWER DISSIPATION CONSIDERATIONS When using the part at elevated temperature, the engineer should consider the power dissipation capabilities of each package. At the nominal supply voltage of 6V, the typical supply current is 25mA (30mA max). For operation at supply voltages other than 6V, see Figure 1 for lac versus Vcc curves. The supply current is inversely proportional to temperature and varies no more than 1rnA between 25'C and either temperature extreme. The change is 0.1 % per 'C over the range. The recommended operating temperature ranges are air-mount specifications. Better heat-sinking benefits can be realized by mounting the SO and N package bodies against the PC board plane. vee R, 650 R, 225 RO J------.----+-....10""'...rYr'n...-{) Vour 3nH V,N RE' 12 RE' 12 "'""''''''' Figure 15. Schematic Diagram February 12, 1987 11-71 • Signetics Unear Products Product Specification NE/SA5204 Wide-band High-Frequency Amplifier PC BOARD MOUNTING In order to realize satisfactory mounting of the NE5204 to a PC board, certain techniques need to be utilized. The board must be double-sided with copper and all pins must be soldered to their respective areas (i.e., all GND and Vee pins on the package). The power supply should be decoupled with a capacitor as close to the Vcc pins as possible, and an RF choke should be inserted between the supply and the device. Caution should be exercised in the connection of input and output pins. Standard microstrlp should be observed wherever possible. There should be no solder bumps or burrs or any obstructions in the signal path to cause launching problems. The path should be as straight as possible and lead lengths as short as possible from the part to the cable connection. Another important consideration is that the input and output should be AC-coupled. This is because at Vcc = 6V, the input is approximately at 1V while the output is at 3.3V. The output must be decoupled into a low-impedance system, or the DC bias on the output of the amplifier will be loaded down, causing loss of output power. The easiest way to decouple the entire amplifier is by soldering a high-frequency chip capacitor directly to the input and output pins of the device. This circuit is shown in Figure 16. Follow these recommendations to get the best frequency response and noise immunity. The board design is as important as the integrated circuit design itself. Both of the evaluation boards that will be discussed next do not have input and output capacitors because it is assumed the user will use AC-coupled test systems. Chip or foil capacitors can easily be inserted between the part and connector if the board trace is removed. 8-LEAD MINI-PACK; PLASTIC (90-8; SOT-96A) " q, ;-i "" II 0 0 tJ 0 CAPACllOA HOLE Vcc PLANE OUTPUT GNDPLANE GNDPLANE SONCKAGE HOLE BACKSIDE SONCKAIIE HOl.E TOPSIDE Bono.. lOP GNDFLANGE SMA CONNECTOR Figure 17.

The square hole is for the SO package which is put in upside-down through the bottom of the board so that the leads are kept in position for soldering. Both holes are just slightly larger than the capacitor and IC to provide for a tight fit. 50n EVALUATION BOARD The evaluation board layout shown in Figure 17 produces excellent results. The board is to scale and is for the SO package. Both top and bottom are copper clad and the ground planes are bonded together through 50n SMA cable connectors. These are solder mounted on the sides of the board so that the signal traces line up straight to the connector signal pins. This board should be tested in a system with 50n input and output impedance for correct operation. Solid copper tubing is soldered through the flange holes between the two connectors for increased strength and grounding characteristics. Two- or four-hole flanges can be used. A flat, round decoupling capacitor is placed in the board's round hole and soldered between the bottom Vce plane and the top side ground. The capacitor is as thin or thinner than the PC board thickness and has insula- 75n EVALUATION BOARD Another evaluation board is shown in Figure 18. This system uses the same PC board as presented in Figure 17, but makes use of 75n female N-type connectors. The board is mounted in a nickel plated box' that is used to support the N-type connectors. This is an n excellent way to test the part for cable TV applications. Again, the board should be tested in a system with 75n input- and outputimpedance for correct operation.

For 50n system measurements, SMA connectors were used. The 75n data was obtained using N-connectors. Values for Figure 20 are measured and specified in the data sheet to ease adaptation and comparison of the NE5204 to other highfrequency amplifiers. The most important parameter is S21. It is defined as the square root of the power gain, and, in decibels, is equal to voltage gain as shown below: Also measured on the same system are the respective voltage standing-wave ratios. These are shown in Figure 21. The VSWR can be seen to be below 1.5 across the entire operational frequency range.

The intermodulation ratio is the difference in dB between the fundamental oulput signal level and the generated distortion product level. The relationship between intercept and intermodulation ratio is illustrated in Figure 22, which shows product output levels plotted versus the level of the fundamental output for two equal strength output signals at different frequencies. The upper line shows the fundamental output plotted against itself with a 1dB to 1dB slope. The second and third order products lie below the fundamentals and exhibit a 2:1 and 3:1 slope, respectively. The intercept point for either product is the intersection of the extensions of the product curve with the fundamental output. The intercept pOint is determined by measuring the intermodulation ratio at a single output level and projecting along the appropriate product slope to the point of intersection with the fundamental. When the intercept point is known, the intermodulation ratio can be determined by the reverse process. The second-order IMR is equal to the difference between the second-order intercept and the fundamental output level. The third-order IMR is equal to twice the difference between the third-order intercept and the fundamental output level. These are expressed as: IP2 = POUT + IMR2 + IMR3/2 IP3 = POUT where POUT is the power level in dBm of each of a pair of equal level fundamental output signals, IP2 and IP3 are the second- and thirdorder output intercepts in dBm, and IMR2 and IMR3 are the second- and third- order intermodulation ratios in dB.

Above some output level which is below the 1dB compression point, the active device moves into largesignal operation. At this point, the intermodulation products no longer follow the straightline output slopes, and the intercept description is no longer valid. It is therefore important to measure IP2 and IPs at output levels well below 1dB compression. One must be careful, however, not to select levels which are too low, because the test equipment may not be able to recover the signal from the noise. For the NE5204, an output level of ,.10.5dBm was chosen with fundamental frequencies of 100.000 and 100.01 MHz, respectively. +30 ....w ..... ...::>~'O 0 PO~NT i RESPONSE ....... -10 / -20 -30 lL -40 -60 POINT V ~ V1 / J-.

Signetics NE/SA/SE5205 Wide-band High-Frequency Amplifier Product Specification Linear Products DESCRIPTION The NE/SA/SE5205 is a High Frequency Amplifier with a fixed insertion gain of 20dB. The gain is flat to ± 0.5dB from DC to 450MHz, and the -3dB bandwidth is greater than 600MHz in the EC package. This performance makes the amplifier ideal for cable TV applications. For lower frequency applications, the part is also available in industrial standard dual inline and small outline packages. The NE/SA/SE5205 operates with a single supply of 6V, and only draws 25mA of supply current, which is much less than comparable hybrid parts. The noise figure is 4.8dB in a 75n system and 6dB in a 50n system. Until now, most RF or high frequency designers had to settle for discrete or hybrid solutions to their amplification problems. Most of these solutions required trade-offs that the designer had to accept in order to use high frequency gain stages. These include high power consumption, large component count, transformers, large packages with heat sinks, and high part cost. The NE/SAI SE5205 solves these problems by incorporating a wide-band amplifier on a single monolithic chip. The part is well matched to 50 or 75n input and output impedances. The Standing Wave Ratios in 50 and 75n systems do not exceed 1.5 on either the input or output from DC to the -3dB bandwidth limit. 75n. The amplifier has very good distortion specifications, with second and third-order intermodulation intercepts of + 24dBm and + 17dBm respectively at 100MHz. The device is ideally suited for 75n cable television applications such as decoder boxes, satellite receiver I decoders, and front-end amplifiers for TV receivers. It is also useful for amplified splitters and antenna amplifiers. The part is matched well for 50n test equipment such as signal generators, oscilloscopes, frequency counters and all kinds of signal analyzers. Other applications at 50n include mobile radio, CB radio and data/video transmission in fiber optics, as well as broad-band LANs and telecom systems. A gain greater than 20dB can be achieved by cascading additional NE/SAlSE5205s in series as required, without any degradation in amplifier stability.

Insertion Gain vs Frequency (S2,) Figure 13. Insertion Gain vs Frequency (S2,) February 12, 1987 11-82 Product Specification Signetics Linear Products NEjSAjSE5205 Wide-band High-Frequency Amplifier THEORY OF OPERATION The design is based on the use of multiple feedback loops to provide wide-band gain together with good noise figure and terminal impedance matches. Referring to the circuit schematic in Figure 15, the gain is set primarily by the equation: VOUT V;; = (RFl + RE1)/REl (1) which is series-shunt feedback. There is also shunt-series feedback due to RF2 and RE2 which aids in producing wideband terminal impedances without the need for low value input shunting resistors that would degrade the noise figure. For optimum noise performance, REl and the base resistance of 01 are kept as low as possible while RF2 is maximized. The noise figure is given by the following equation: NF= 10 Log { 1+ [rb + REl + ~]J 2q lCl dB (2) Ro where ICl = 5.5mA, REl = 12n, rb = 1S0n, KT /q = 26mV at 25°C and Ro = 50 for a 50n system and 75 for a 75n system. The DC input voltage level V1N can be determined by the equation: where REl = 12n, VBE = O.BV, ic1 = 5mA and IC3 = 7mA (currents rated at Vcc = 6V). Under the above conditions, V1N is approximately equal to 1V. Level shifting is achieved by emitter-follower 03 and diode 04 which provide shunt feedback to the emitter of 01 via RF1. The use of an emitter-follower buffer in this feedback loop essentially eliminates problems of shunt feedback loading on the output. The value of RFl = 140n is chosen to give the desired nominal gain. The DC output voltage VOUT can be determined by: where Vcc Ics = 5mA. = 6V, R2 = 225n, IC2 = 7mA and From here it can be seen that the output voltage is approximately S.SV to give relatively equal positive and negative output swings. Diode 05 is included for bias purposes to allow direct coupling of RF2 to the base of 01. The dual feedback loops stabilize the DC operating point of the amplifier. The output stage is a Darlington pair (Os and O2) which increases the DC bias voltage on the input stage (01) to a more desirable value, and also increases the feedback loop gain. Resistor Ro optimizes the output VSWR (Voltage Standing Wave Ratio). Inductors Ll and L2 are bondwire and lead inductances which are roughly SnH. These improve the high frequency impedance matches at input and output by partially resonating with 0.5pF of pad and package capacitance. POWER DISSIPATION CONSIDERATIONS When using the part at elevated temperature, the engineer should consider the power dissipation capabilities of each package. At the nominal supply voltage of 6V, the typical supply current is 25mA (SOmA Max). For operation at supply voltages other than 6V, see Figure 1 for Icc versus Vcc curves. The supply current is inversely proportional to temperature and varies no more than 1rnA between 25°C and either temperature extreme. The change is 0.1 % per °C over the range. The recommended operating temperature ranges are air-mount specifications. Better heat sinking benefits can be realized by mounting the 0 and EC package body against the PC board plane. PC BOARD MOUNTING In order to realize satisfactory mounting of the NE5205 to a PC board, certain techniques need to be utilized. The board must be double-sided with copper and all pins must be soldered to their respective areas (i.e., all vee R, 650 Ro VOUT 10 0, Figure 15. Schematic Diagram February 12, 19B7 11-83 3nH • Signetics Linear Products Product Specification NEjSAjSE5205 Wide-band High-Frequency Amplifier GND and Vcc pins on the SO package). In addition, if the EC package is used, the case should be soldered to the ground plane. The power supply should be decoupled with a capacitor as close to the Vee pins as possible and an RF choke should be inserted between the supply and the device. Caution should be exercised in the connection of input and output pins. Standard microstrip should be observed wherever possible. There should be no solder bumps or burrs or any obstructions in the signal path to cause launching problems. The path should be as straight as possible and lead lengths as short as possible from the part to the cable connection. Another important consideration is that the input and output should be AC coupled. This is because at Vee = 6V, the input is approximately at 1V while the output is at 3.3V. The output must be decoupled into a low impedance system or the DC bias on the output of the amplifier will be loaded down causing loss of output power. The easiest way to decouple the entire amplifier is by soldering a high frequency chip capacitor directly to the input and output pins of the device. This circuit is shown in Figure 16. Follow these recommendations to get the best frequency response and noise immunity. The board design is as important as the integrated circuit design itself. vcc f--oVOUT AC COUPLING CAPACITOR Figure 16.

Two or four hole flanges can be used. A flat round decoupling capacitor is placed in the board's round hole and soldered between the bottom Vce plane and the top side ground. The capacitor is as thin or thinner than the PC board thickness and has insulation around its side to isolate Vee and ground. The square hole is for the SO package which is put in upside down through the bottom of the board so that the leads are kept in ~ , Both of the evaluation boards that will be discussed next do not have input and output capacitors because it is assumed the user will use AC coupled test systems. Chip or foil capacitors can easily be inserted between the part and connector if the board trace is removed. The evaluation board layout shown in Figure 17 produces excellent results. The board is to scale and is for the SO package but can be used for the EC package as well. Both top and bottom are copper clad and the ground planes are bonded together through SOn SMA cable connectors. These are solder mounted on the sides of the board so that the signal traces line up straight to the connector signal pins. r: Vee PLANE OUTPUT PLANE INPUT GNDPLANE SO PACKAGE HOLE BACKSIDE SO PACKAGE HOLE TOPSIDE BOTTOM TOP GND FlANGE SMA CONNECTOR Figure 17.

The board is mounted in a nickel plated box' that is used to support the N-type connectors. This is an excellent way to test the part for cable TV applications.

The decrease is due to nonlinearities in the amplifier, an indication of the point of transition between small-signal operation and the large signal mode. Zo P,=V, 2 P, = Insertion Power Gain V, = Insertion Voltage Gain Measured value for the NE/SAlSE5205 = I s2,12 = 100 The saturated output power is a measure of the amplifier's ability to deliver power into an external load. It is the value of the amplifier's output power when the input is heavily overdriven. This includes the sum of the power in all harmonics. In decibels: P'(dB) = 10 Log IS2, 12 = 20dB INTERMODULATION INTERCEPT TESTS V'(dB) = 20 Log S2, = 20dB The intermodulation intercept is an expression of the low level linearity of the amplifier. The intermodulation ratio is the difference in dB between the fundamental output signal level and the generated distortion product level. The relationship between intercept and intermodulation ratio is illustrated in Figure 22, which shows product output levels plotted versus the level of the fundamental output for two equal strength output signals at different frequencies. The upper line shows the fundamental output plotted against itself with a 1dB :. P'(dB) = V'(dB) = S2, (dB) = 20dB Also measured on the same system are the respective voltage standing wave ratios. These are shown in Figure 21. The VSWR can be seen to be below 1.5 across the entire operational frequency range. Relationships exist between the input and output return losses and the voltage standing wave ratios. These relationships are as follows: The intercept point is determined by measuring the intermodulation ratio at a single output level and projecting along the appropriate product slope to the point of intersection with the fundamental. When the intercept point is known, the intermodulation ratio can be determined by the reverse process. The second order IMR is equal to the difference between the second order intercept and the fundamental output level. The third order IMR is equal to twice the difference between the third order intercept and the fundamental output level. These are expressed as: IP2 = POUT + IMR2 IP3 = POUT + IMR3/2 where POUT is the power level in dBm of each of a pair of equal level fundamental output signals, IP2 and IP3 are the second and third order output intercepts in dBm, and IMR2 and IMR3 are the second and third order intermodulation ratios in dB. The intermodulation intercept is an indicator of intermodulation performance only in the small signal operating range of the amplifier. Above some output level which is below the 1dB compression point, the active device moves into largesignal o·peration. At this point the intermodulation products no longer follow the straight line output slopes, and the intercept description is no longer valid. It is therefore important to measure IP2 and IP 3 at output levels well below 1dB compression. One must be careful, however, not to select too low levels because the test equipment may not be able to recover the signal from the noise. For the NE/SA/SE5205 we have chosen an output level of -10.5dBm with fundamental frequencies of 100.000 and 100.01 MHz, respectively. 2 .• I.' I.'

With a unity gain bandwidth of 350MHz and a slew rate of 600V/ MS, it is second to none. Therefore, it is understandable that to attain this speed, standard internal compensation would have to be left out of its design. As a consequence, the op amp is not unconditionally stable for all closed-loop gains and must be externally compensated for gains below 17dB. Properly done, compensation need not limit slew rate. The following will explain how to use the methods available with the NE/SE5539. LEAD AND LAG-LEAD COMPENSATION A useful method for compensating the device for closed-loop gains below seven is to use lag-lead and lead networks as shown in Figure 1. The lead network is primarily concerned with compensating for loss of phase margin caused by distributed board capacitance and input capacitance, while lag-lead is mainly for optimizing transient response. Lead compensation modifies the feedback network and adds a zero to the overall transfer function. This increases the phase, but does not greatly change the gain magnitude. This zero improves the phase margin. To determine components, it can be shown that the optimal conditions for amplifier stability occur when: However, when the stability criteria is obtained, it should be noted that the actual bandwidth of the closed-loop amplifier will be reduced. Based on using a double-sided copper-clad printed circuit board with a distributed capacitance of 3.5pF and a unity gain configuration, CLEAD would be 3.5pF. Another way of stating the relationship between the distributed capacitance closed-loop gain and the lead compensation capacitor is: When bandwidth is of primary concern, the lead compensation will usually be adequate. For closed-loop gains less than seven, laglead compensation is necessary for stability. If transient response is also a factor in design, a lag-lead compensation network may be necessary (Reference Figure 1). For practical applications, the following equations can be used to determine proper lag-lead components: r--II-- .:;:. V,N (7) where (8) therefore, (9) and (10) LAG-LEAD COMPENSATION WILL CONTROL GAIN PEAKING GAIN (5) Using the above equation will insure a closedloop gain of seven above the network break 70MHz a.

(Near 70MHz, see Figures 2a and 2b.) But also, the lag-lead network can be adjusted to optimize gain peaking for transient responses. Therefore, rise time, overshoot, and settling time can be changed for various closed-loop gains. The result of using this technique is shown for a pulse amplifier in Figure 3.

The internal circuit can be treated like a black box and the outside circuit program altered to whatever application the user would like to examine.

Three basic gain options are provided. Fixed gains of 400 and 100 result from shorting together gain select pins G'A - G'B and G2A - G2B, respectively. As shown by Figure I, the emitter circuits of the differential pair return through independent current sources. This topology allows no gain in the input stage if all gain select pins are left open. Thus, the third gain option of tying an external resistance across the gain select pins allows the user to select any desired gain from 0 to 400VIV. The advantages of this configuration will be covered in greater detail under the filter application section. Three factors should be pointed out at this time: 1. The gains specified are differential. Singleended gains are one-half the stated value. 2. The circuit 3dB bandwidths are a function of and are inversely proportional to the gain settings. 3. The differential input impedance is an inverse function of the gain setting. In applications where the signal source is a transformer or magnetic transducer, the input bias current required by the 592 may be passed directly through the source to ground. Where capacitive coupling is to be used, the base inputs must be returned to ground through a resistor to provide a DC path for the bias current. Due to offset currents, the selection of the input bias resistors is a compromise. To reduce the loading on the source, the resistors should be large, but to minimize the output DC offset, they should be small- ideally on. Their maximum value is set by the maximum allowable output offset and may be determined as follows: 1. Define the allowable output offset (assume 1.5V). February 1987 Table 1. Video Amplifier Comparison .File PARAMETER NE/SE592 Bandwidth (MHz) 120 120 Gain 0,100,400 10,100,400 RIN (k) 4-30 4-250 Vp_p (Va) 4.0 4.0 2. Subtract the maximum 592 output offset (from the data sheet). This gives the output offset allowed as a function of input offset currents (1.5V - 1.0V = 0.5V). 3. Divide by the circuit gain (assume 100). This refers the output offset to the input. 4. The maximum input resistor size is: Input Offset Voltage RMAX = Max Input Offset Current (1) 0.005V 733 Filters As mentioned earlier, the emitter circuit of the NE592 includes two current sources. Since the stage gain is calculated by dividing the collector load impedance by the emitter impedance, the high impedance contributed by the current sources causes the stage gain to be zero with all gain select pins open. As shown by the gain vs. frequency graph of Figure 3, the overall gain at low frequencies is a negative 4BdB. Higher frequencies cause higher gain due to distributed parasitic capacitive reactance. This reactance in the first stage emitter circuit causes increasing stage gain until at 10M Hz the gain is OdB, or unity. 5JJA = 1.00kn Of paramount importance during the design of the NE592 device was bandwidth. In a monolithic device, this precludes the use of PNP transistors and standard level-shifting techniques used in lower frequency devices. Thus, without the aid of level shifting, the output common-mode voltage present on the NE592 is typically 2.9V. Most applications, therefore, require capacitive coupling to the load. An exception to the rule is a differential amplifier with an input common-mode range greater than + 2.9V as shown in Figure 2. In this circuit, the NE592 drives a NE5tl B transistor array connected as a differential cascode amplifier. This amplifier is capable of differential output voltages of 4BVp.p with a 3dB bandwidth of approximately 10MHz (depending on the capacitive load). For optimum operation, Rl is set for a no-signal level of + 18V. The emitter resistors, RE, were selected to give the cascode amplifier a differential gain of 10. The gain of the composite amplifier is adjusted at the gain selected point of the NE592. 11-118 Referring to Figure 4, the impedance seen looking across the emitter structure includes small r. of each transistor. Any calculations of impedance networks across the emitters then must incl ude this quantity. The collector current level is approximately 2mA, causing the quantity of 2 r. to be approximately 32n. Overall device gain is thus given by Vo(s) = 1.4 X 104 VIN(S) Z(S) + 32 (2) where Z(S) can be resistance or a reactive impedance. Table 2 summarizes the possible configurations to produce low, high, and bandpass filters. The emitter impedance is made to vary as a function of frequency by using capacitors or inductors to alter the frequency response. Included also in Table 2 is the gain calculation to determine the voltage gain as a function of frequency.

The primary advantage of using the emitter circuit to accomplish differentiation is the retention of the high common mode noise rejection.

The NE592 video amplifier, coupled with the BT20 bidirectional one-shot, provides all the signal conditioning necessary for phase-encoded data. When data is recorded on a disc, drum or tape system, the readback will be a Gaussian shaped pulse with the peak of the pulse corresponding to the actual recorded transi- 11-119 tion point. This readback signal is usually 5001lVp.p to 3mVp.p for oxide coated disc files and 1 to 20mVp.p for nickel-cobalt disc files. In order to accurately reproduce the data stream originally written on the disc memory, the time of peak point of the Gaussian readback signal must be determined.

Figure 4. Basic Gain Configuration for NE592, N 14 Figure 5. Differential With High Common-Mode Noise Rejection The classical approach to peak time determination is to differentiate the input signal. Differentiation results in a voltage proportional to the slope of the input signal. The zerocrossing point of the differentiator, therefore, will occur when the input signal is at a peak. Using a zero-crossing detector and one-shot, therefore, results in pulses occurring at the input peak points. A circuit which provides the preconditioning described above is shown in Figure 6. Read· back data is applied directly to the input of the first NE592. This amplifier functions as a wide-band AC-coupled amplifier with a gain of 100. The NE592 is excellent for this use because of its high phase linearity, high gain and ability to directly couple the unit with the readback head. By direct coupling of readback head to amplifier, no matched terminating resistors are required and the excellent common-mode rejection ratio of the amplifier is preserved. DC components are also reject- The second NE592 is utilized as a low noise differentiator/amplifier stage. The NE592 is excellent in this application because it allows differentiation with excellent common-mode noise rejection. The output of the differentiator/amplifier is connected to the 8T20 bidirectional monostable unit to provide the proper pulses al the zero-crossing paints of the differentiator.

It offers fixed gains of 10, 100, or 400 without external components, and adjustable gains from 10 to 400 by the use of an external resistor. No external frequency compensation components are required for any gain option. Gain stability, wide bandwidth, and low phase distortion are obtained through use of the classic series-shunt feedback from the emitter-follower outputs to the inputs of the second stage. The emitter-follower outputs provide low output impedance, and enable the device to drive capacitive loads. The 733 is intended for use as a high-performance video and pulse amplifier in communications, magnetic memories, display and video recorder systems. • 120MHz bandwidth • 250kn. input resistance • Selectable gains of 10, 100, and 400 • No frequency compensation required • MIL-STO-SS3A, B, C available F, N Packages INPUT 2 G~~~EA~~ G 18 GAIN SELECT 1 12 3 4 11 ~~tE~~IN ~~tE~~IN V· APPLICATIONS • Video amplifier • Pulse amplifier in communications • Magnetic memories • Video recorder systems OUTPUT 2 7 TOP VIEW ORDERING INFORMATION DESCRIPTION TEMPERATURE ORDER CODE 14·Pin Ceramic DIP -55'C to +125'C IlA733F 14·Pin Plastic DIP -55'C to +125'C jlA733N o to o to 14·Pin Plastic DIP 14·Pin Ceramic DIP +70'C jlA733CN +70'C IlA733CF • CIRCUIT SCHEMATIC r---~--------~---4r---~----~----~-Ov· INPUT 1 +----+-OOUTPUT 1 G,. { OUTPUT 2 GAIN SELECT December 2, 1986 G,. 11-123 853·1064 86704 Signetics Linear Products Product Specification pA.733/733C Differential Video Amplifier ABSOLUTE MAXIMUM RATINGS SYMBOL RATING UNIT VDIFF Differential input voltage PARAMETER ±5 V VCM Common-mode input voltage ±6 V Vee Supply voltage ±8 V lOUT Output current 10 rnA TJ Junction temperature +150 'C TSTG Storage temperature range -65 to + 150 'C TA Operating ambient temperature range /lA733C !1A733 o to +70 -55 to +125 'C 'C 1190 1420 mW mW PMAX Maximum power dissipation 1 25'C ambient temperature (still-air) F package N package NOTE: 1.

February 12, 1967 11-132 Signetics Linear Products Product Specification 317k Bit CCO Memory SAA9001 FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION Operation The memory array is organized to handle data in blocks of 1080 bits and has a capacity of 294 data blocks. The structure of the memory array provides fast, serial data input and output, with parallel transfer of data blocks through the memory. Memory input and output are controlled by the memory gating (MG); the serial output is initiated by the rising edge of MG, and the storage of the data present in the memory's input register is performed on the falling edge of MG. In normal operation, one cycle of MG is an uninterrupted High level of at least 1080 clock periods (-4 or + 3 clock periods) followed by a Low level of at least 32 clock periods. Input, output, and gating signals are all referred to the rising edge of the memory clock (MC). The internal recirculation facility is activated when the control input MRN is Low. Memory output Output is enabled when MG is High and data is clocked serially from the memory. Referring to Figure 1, the first rising clock edge after the positive transition of MG is defined as clock pulse "0". If the delay control address is A2 = AI = AO = 0, then the first bit of the output is valid at clock pulse" 17" (the delay of 17 clock periods is due to internal multiplexing of the data in the memory). The output delay can be increased by the values shown in Table 1 using the internal delay line controlled by AO, AI, and A2. Data input Data to be stored is directed to the memory from either Mil or MI2 as selected by the control input MIS (see Table 2). The Mil input is delayed by one clock period. Table 2. Input Selection CONTROL INPUT MEMORY INPUT MIS=O MIS=1 Mil MI2 Table 1.

When the negative transition of MG occurs, the 1080 bits of data present in the input register are entered into the memory array. If the interval of MG = High is not an exact multiple of eight clock periods, the timing of the negative transition of MG is internally rounded to be an exact multiple of eight clock periods. Note that the data path from input Mil has a delay of one clock period and the path from MI2 is direct.

Memory Input and Output Data Timings With Respect to the Memory Clock (MC) for a Memory Gating (MG) High Period that Is a Multiple of 8 Clock Periods (no Internal Rounding of Gating Period) February 12, 1987 11-133 • Signetics Linear Products Product Specification SAA9001 317k Bit CCD Memory The length of the MG = High interval required for internal and external recirculation of data is determined as shown in Figure 2. The positive transition of MG (waveform 1) initiates the serial transfer of data from the output register. Due to multiplexing in the memory, valid data is available after 16 clock periods (waveform 2). After a delay of "A" clock periods, determined by AO, A 1, and A2 (waveform 3), and a one-clock period delay via a 0type flip-flop, the valid data is available at the output pin MO (waveform 4). Incoming data can be delayed by two amounts: RP (waveform 5), a phase shift introduced when the data is recirculated through an external processing circuit, and 10 (waveform 6), a one-clock period delay when input Mil is selected. The negative transition of MG, internally rounded to a multiple of eight clock periods (waveform 7), initiates storage of the last 1080 bits presented at the memory input (waveform 6). Therefore, the MG = High interval is 16 + A + 1 + RP + 10 + 1080 clock periods, and this figure is GATE RISING EOGE rounded to a multiple of eight. From this, (A + 1 + RP + 10) modulo 8 = O. During internal recirculation of the data (MRN = Low), the three D-type flip-flops in the recirculation path give RP a value of three clock periods and 10 will be zero. Consequently, the variable delay should be programmed for a delay of A = 4 for proper data retention, i.e.. (4 + 1 + 3 + 0) modulo 8 = O. In conclusion, to store 1080 bits of valid data and to retrieve at the output 1080 valid data bits, the MG = High interval must be at least 1076 clock periods followed by an MG = Low interval of at least 32 clock periods. The MG = Low interval can be reduced to a minimum of 24 clock periods when MG = High is a multiple of eight clock periods. periods. If the MG = High interval is a multiple of eight clock periods during fast gating, the MG = Low interval can be reduced to 24 clock periods (min.); otherwise, the MG = Low interval must be at least 32 clock periods. The output data is not valid during fast gating and during the first two data blocks at the output after fast gating has ceased. No valid data is clocked into the input register of the CCD memory during fast gating. Slow Gating The transfer of data can be decelerated by using slow gating. For this, the MG = High or MG = Low interval is extended to the maximum waiting time (tGw), Fast Gating HANDLING Fast gating is a method of accelerating the internal transfer of data through the memory at the expense of valid data, and is therefore useful for skipping unwanted data blocks. The MG = High interval for fast gating is less than 1076 clock periods to a minimum of 360 clock Inputs and outputs are protected against electrostatic charge in normal handling. However, to be totally safe, it is desirable to take normal precautions appropriate to handling MOS devices.

It delivers the signal which is used for linearity control, and drive of the preamplifier. The sawtooth is applied via a shaping network to Pin 11 (linearity) and via a resistor to Pin 4 (preamplifier). Preamplifier input The DC voltage is proportional to the output voltage (DC feedback). The AC voltage is proportional to the sum of the buffered sawtooth voltage at Pin 3 and the voltage, with opposite polarity, at the feedback resistor (AC feedback). Positive supply of output stage This supply is obtained from the flyback generator. An electrolytic capacitor between Pins 7 and 5, and a diode between Pins 5 and 9 have to be connected for proper operation of the f1yback generator. Output of class·S power stage The vertical deflection coil is connected to this pin, via a series connection of a coupling capacitor and a feedback resistor, to ground. Flyback generator output An electrolytic capacitor has to be connected between Pins 7 and 5 to complete the f1yback generator. Negative supply (ground) Negative supply of output stage and small signal part. Positive supply The supply voltage at this pin is used to supply the f1yback generator, voltage stabilizer, blanking pulse generator and buffer stage. Reference voltage of preamplifier External adjustment and decoupling of reference voltage of the preamplifier. Sawtooth capacitor This sawtooth capacitor has been split to realize linearity control. 50Hz/60Hz switching level This pin delivers a LOW voltage level for 50Hz and a HIGH voltage level for 60Hz. The amplitudes of the sawtooth signals can be made equal for 50Hz and 60Hz with these levels.

The supply for the output stage is fed to Pin 6 and the output stage ground is connected to Pin 4. The output transistors of the Class-B output stage can each deliver 1A maximum. The 'upper' power transistor is protected against shortcircuit currents to ground, whereas during flyback, the 'lower' power transistor is protected against too high voltages which may occur during adjustments. Moreover, the output transistors have been given extra solidity by means of special measures in the internal circuit layout. A thermal protection circuit is incorporated to protect the IC against too high dissipation. November 14, 1986 This circuit is 'active' at 175°C and then reduces the deflection current to such a value that the dissipation cannot increase. Driver and Switching Circuit Pin 1 is the input for the driver of the output stage. The signal at Pin 1 is also applied to Pin 3 which is the input of a switching circuit. When the flyback starts, this switching circuit rapidly turns off the lower output stage and so limits the turn-off dissipation. It also allows a quick start of the flyback generator. Pin 3 is connected externally to Pin I, in order to allow for different applications in which Pin 3 is driven separate from Pin 1. Flyback Generator The capacitor at Pin 6 is charged to a maximum voltage, which is equal to the supply voltage Vee (Pin 9), during scan. 12-10 When the flyback starts and the voltage at the output pin (Pin 5) exceeds the supply voltage (Pin 9), the flyback generator is activated. The Vee is connected in series (via Pin 8) with the voltage across the capacitor. The voltage at the supply pin (Pin 6) 01 the output stage will then be maximum twice Vee. Lower voltages can be chosen by changing the value of the external resistor at Pin 8. Voltage Stabilizer The internal voltage stabilizer provides a stabilized supply of 6V for drive of the output stage, so the drive current of the output stage is not affected by supply voltage variations. The stabilized voltage is available at Pin 7. A decoupling capacitor of 2.211F can be connected to this pin.

It is also possible to use this pin to drive the switching circuit for different applications. This switching circuit rapidly turns off the lower output stage at the end of scan and also allows for a quick start of the flyback generator. 4 Output Stage Ground 5, 6 Output Stage and Protection Circuits - Pin 5 is the output pin and Pin 6 is the Figure 2. Power Derating Curve output stage supply pin. The output stage is a class-B type with each transistor capable of delivering 1.5A maximum. The "upper" output transistor is protected against short·circuit currents to ground. The base of the "lower" power transistor is connected to ground duro ing flyback and so it is protected against too high flyback pulses which may occur during adjustments. In addition, the output transistors are protected by a special layout of the internal circuit. The circuit is protected ther· mally against excessive dissipation by a cir· cuit which operates at temperatures of 175°C and upwards, causing the output current to drop to a value such that the dissipation cannot increase. 7 Voltage Stabilizer - The internal voltage stabilizer provides a stabilized supply voltage of 6V for drive of the output stage, so the drive current is not influenced by the various voltages of different applications. 8, 9 Flyback Generator - Pin 8 is the output pin of the flyback generator. Depending on the value of the external resistor at Pin 8, the capacitor at Pin 6 will be charged to a fixed level during the scan period. The maximum height of the level is equal to the supply voltage at Pin 9 {Ved. When the flyback starts and the flyback pulse at Pin 5 exceeds the supply voltage, the flyback generator is activated and then the supply voltage is connected in series (via Pin 8) with the voltage across the capacitor. The voltage at the supply pin (Pin 6) of the output stage will then be not more than twice the supply voltage.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION Driver and Switching Circuit Output Stage and Protection Circuits Pin 1 is the input for the driver of the output stage. The signal at Pin 1 is also applied to Pin 3 which is the input of a switching circuit (Pins 1 and 3 are externally connected). This switching circuit rapidly turns off the lower output stage when the flyback starts, and therefore, allows a quick start of the flyback generator. The maximum required input signal for the maximum output current peak-to-peak value of 3A is only 3V; the sum of the currents in Pins 1 and 3 is then maximum 1rnA. The output stage consists of two Darlington configurations in class B arrangement. Each output transistor can deliver 1.5A maximum and the VCEO is 60V. Protection of the output stage is such that the operation of the transistors remains well within the SOA area in all circumstances at the output pin (Pin 5). This is obtained by the cooperation of the thermal protection circuit, the current-voltage detector, and the short-circuit protection. Special measures in the internal circuit layout give the output transistors extra solidity; this is illustrated in Figure 4, where typical SOA curves of the lower output transistors are given. The same curves also apply for the upper output device. The supply for the output stage is fed to Pin 6 and the output stage ground is connected to Pin 4. February 12, 1987 Flyback Generator During scan, the capacitor between Pins 6 and 8 is charged to a level which is dependent on the value of the resistor at Pin 8 (see Block Diagram). When the flyback starts and the voltage at the output pin (Pin 5) exceeds the supply voltage, the flyback generator is activated. The supply voltage is then connected in series, via Pin 8, with the voltage across the 12-23 capacitor during the flyback period. This implies that during scan the supply voltage can be reduced to the required scan voltage plus saturation voltage of the output transistors. The amplitude of the flyback voltage can be chosen by changing the value of the external resistor at Pin 8. It should be noted that the application is chosen such that the lowest voltage at Pin 8 is > 1.5V during normal operation. Guard Circuit When there is no deflection current, for any reason, the voltage at Pin 8 becomes less than 1V and the guard circuit will produce a DC voltage at Pin 7. This voltage can be used to blank the picture tube so that the screen will not burn in. Voltage Stabilizer The internal voltage stabilizer provides a stabilized supply of 6V to drive the output stage, so the drive current is not affected by supply voltage variations.

S. Hobbs SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS The current 525-line (modified U.K.) Teletext system differs in a few respects from the 625line system for which the U.K. chip set was designed. These are: (a) Data Rate 5.727272Mb/s. (b) Data bytes per data line 32. (c) Gearing bit system for routing data to RAM. (d) Approximately 200 display lines available for text with normal raster geometry. These are catered for in the decoder described below so that the 625-line chip set is presented with signals which it can interpret correctly and provide a suitable display for general use. Data Rate (a) and (b) (a) To accomodate the lower data rate the clock coil and tuning capacitor in the SAA5020 video input processor circuit are redesigned. (b) The write enable (WOK) signal from TAC (SAA5040) to the RAM is limited to 32 data bytes in GALA. Gearing Bit System (c) This is accomodated in the Gearing and Address Logic chip (GALA). Since 40 characters per row are displayed, whereas only 32 are transmitted per data line, a routing system is used to position character data in RAM as it is received. The left hand part of the display is built up by 32 byte rows of data positioned in RAM by transmitted ROW addresses. The right hand side of the display is 'filled-in' by 4 sequential groups of 8 characters sent as one data line but stored in RAM as the last 8 bytes of 4 sequential rows. A gearing bit in the magazine number/row address group (see Table 1) is set to 'I' if fill-in information is being transmitted and to '0' if left hand rows are sent. The ROW address of the data line containing the gearing bit set to 'I' determines the starting ROW number for the fill-in operation. For ROW zero start, a ROW address for ROW February 1987 number 1 is employed since ROW zero can only be used for header information. The presence of the gearing bit set = 1 together with ROW address number 1 is detected in GALA. From Table 1 it will be seen that the gearing bit occupies the position occupied by the most significant bit of the magazine number in the 625 system. In order to allow the Teletext Acquisition Chip (TAC, SAA5040B) to acquire data from such lines the gearing bit is detected by GALA and converted always to zero. This preserves the magazine number as that set by the two least significant bits. The number of magazines available using the present decoder is 4. (Subsequent development of new chip sets will allow expansion of these by using header coding at present deSignated as time coded page information and detected as such by the 625-line TAC). Display Compression (d) In order to allow the display of 40 characters per row and 24 rows on a 525-line raster, a compression technique has been developed which only requires 192 active TV line pairs (interlaced). The character shape is essentially unchanged from the 625-line set but the row timing is now only every 8 TV lines instead of every 10. This is achieved using a special 525-line standard timing chip (SAA5025D), to drive the same TRaM (SAA5050) as is used in the 625-line decoder. DECODER BLOCK SCHEMATIC Figure 1 shows the basic decoder elements in block form, made up of dedicated chips SAA5025D,SAA5030,SAA5040B, SAA5045 (GALA) and SAA5050 together with RAM. These are divided into functional areas to simplify the decoder description. Only the most important interconnections are shown in order to reduce complexity. Inputs to the system are the video input to the Video Input Processor (VIP) and remote control signals (see Appendix' A'), to (TAC) and (TRaM). 13-3 Outputs consist of R, G and B, blanking, Y and superimpose control. These allow flexible interfacing with the TV set video drive system (see Appendix B). Video Input Processor (SAA5030) This chip (VIP) performs mainly analog functions concerned with extracting the data signal from the TV set video and presenting it in a suitable form to the Teletext Acquisition Chip (TAC, SAA5040B). VIP also provides a phase-locked crystal oscillator at 384MHz horizontal line rate, i.e., 6.041957MHz. This frequency is divided down in the Timing Chip (TIC, SAA5025D) to produce all the line- and field-related timing waveform locked to the input video sync pulses. As ancillary to this function, VIP includes a sync separator to provide field rate sync to TIC. Data is sliced in VIP by an adaptive slicer referenced to peak detectors. This is followed by Data Clock regeneration in a DC circuit. A data latch driven internally supplies latched data, correctly phased with the Data Clock, to TAC. Gearing and Address Logie Array (GALA) SAA5045 Due to the system differences between 525and 625-line Teletext, the data from VIP must be modified before it is presented to the Teletext Acquisition Chip (TAC, SAA5040B). The presence of a gearing bit set to 'I' or '0' is detected in GALA and the data is delayed for one byte period in a shift register. This allows the inversion of the gearing bit, if required, to avoid confusion in the decoding of the magazine number (see paragraph on Gearing Bit System). GALA includes a bistable which is set or not set, according to the state of the gearing bit. This is held for the duration of each data line and reset before the next. Also included in GALA are RAM address and read/write control functions. • Application Note Signetics Linear Products AN153 The 5-Chip Set Teletext Decoder Table 1.

Row addresses are decoded after Hamming checks and issued to the RAM address system. A column address clock for writing into RAM during data lines (WACK) is also generated at byte (character) rate. Parity checking is carried out to produce write enable pulses (WOK) for each correctly received character to be written into RAM. Header (row zero) information is also decoded and Hamming checked in TAC so that only the data relating to the page called up by the remote-control system (Key Pad input of required page number) is written into RAM. Clearing functions are also controlled by Header and Remote Control input data, to clear the RAM. Selected page number information is written into RAM by TAC during an unused TV line between the end of data entry (DEW) and the start of the text display period. When doubleheight characters are requested (via remote control), TAC issues commands to the timing chain (TIC) and display device (TRaM). Similarly, the system controls for TEXT or TV or MIXED (Text + TV), are issued by TAC as picture ON (PO) and display enable (DE) to VIP and TRaM. Timing Chain (TIC, SAA5025D) The timing of line and field rate functions together with display dot clock are derived from the VIP crystal oscillator (6.041957MHz) signal fed to TIC. This ·signal is counted down to line rate (+384) and field rate, phaselocked to the incoming TV syncs. A composite sync waveform (AHS) is also generated which free-runs (under crystal control) to allow display of text to continue after the TV signal has ended. This is known as 'afterhours sync'. Row addresses for the display period are generated in TIC (Ao through AI) together with a column count (character rate) clock (RACK). The row addresses are stepped from zero to twenty-three at one-eighth of TV line rate, giving 24 rows at 8 lines/row in each field (60 fields/sec). This address information for reading RAM is multiplexed with the writing address information under control of a field rate signal generated by TIC, called DEW or data entry window. This is timed to occur on TV lines 10 through 19, inclusive, which are the lines in the vertical interval during which data is accepted. The DEW signal controls data entry in TAC, and also the address tri-state switches. February 1987 AN153 Signals fed back from TIC to VI P are used to reset the data slicer system and to enable rapid phase-locking of the crystal oscillator. A buffered dot rate clock at crystal frequency is issued by TIC to drive the display generators in TRaM. The display area on the TV raster is controlled by the LOSE (load output shift register enable) signal from TIC which occurs on all active text lines. When double-height characters are called up by control signals from TAC, originated at the Key Pad, the row addresses are stepped at half-rate and the top or bottom of the display is selected by the T /B signal. This resets the row address counter in TIC to start at row zero, or twelve of the text display. Address Logic (GALA) The address logic in GALA contains column address counters for the character rate address generation, a multiplexer for address combining, and an address latch/step function for the gearing system. Since the teletext address structure for transmission and display contains five row address bits and six column address bits, these must be reduced to a total of ten bits to suit conventional RAM structures. This is achieved in GALA by multiplexing the row and column addresses. During the input of data lines, containing a gearing bit set to '1', a multiplexer causes the row address to be indexed every 8 bytes. The multiplexer is transparent to addresses during data lines containing a gearing bit set to zero. The row addresses from TAC go to the GALA and are multiplexed with the display row addresses under control of DEW, by tristates in TIC and TAC. Random Access Memory (RAM) Character data from TAC is stored in a page display memory with a capacity of 1024 8-bit bytes. Of these, only 960 bytes of 7-bit length are actually used. Data is written in during acquisition from TAC and read out during display to TRaM, under control of write enable and chip select signals, generated from the WOK and DE signals from TAC via GALA. A common input/output bus structure is used in the devices employed in this decoder. Conflict of signal direction is avoided in the WOK/DE gating arrangement in GALA. Display Compression (50250) The drive signals from TIC (5025D) to TRaM during the display period are organized so that suitably-shaped characters are generated by TRaM on an 8 TV line pair per row basis. Since TRaM is primarily intended for 10 line pairs per row operation, it is necessary to provide effectively 10 drive pulses per row per field, although output dot data is only required on eight of these in each field. The compression logic in TIC (5025D) inserts additional step pulses during the horizontal 13-5 sync interval to keep the internal counters in TRaM in the correct sequence. A further operation included is the blanking of the display during the same period to avoid spurious 'dots' on the TV tube. Character rounding normally employed in the TRaM character generator is also controlled to obtain the best-shaped 'compressed' characters. Teletext Read Only Memory (TROM, SAA5050) This device contains the read only memory and character generating system which produces the text display (and graphics) characters. It is controlled by direct input remotecontrol signals (Key Pad-originated), and by transmitted controls via TAC. Timing of the display system is controlled by signals from TIC, and the actual display data is read in from the page memory RAM. Output signals for R, G, B, Y, Blanking and superimpose are available by open-collector transistor output buffers. These are interfaced to the regular TV video drive system via 75n emitter-followers in this decoder. However, it is simple to obtain outputs at different impedance levels by the emitter-follower input/ output components or by substituting TIL buffers with input pull-up resistors. Interfacing will differ for different setmakers, but the 75n 1V p.p system is flexible in allowing long connections between the decoder and the video circuits of the TV. FUNCTIONAL LOGIC INTERCONNECTION SCHEMATIC The complete decoder is built on a doublesided PCB with Molex 0.1" pitch plug connectors. Supplies required are 150mA at 12V and 250mA at 5V ± 5%. The supply rails are decoupled by distributed discrete 100nF capacitors not shown on the circuit diagram. PCB layout is only critical in the analog area surrounding VIP where connections must be kept short and ground paths sensibly routed. Good video frequency practice is followed in this area to ensure minimum radiation of interference and suppression of local oscillatory effects. VIP Circuit IC4, the SAA5030 device, has a number of discrete resistors and capacitors connected to it to define operating levels and frequencies. Tuning capacitors C17, CIS, CIS, C12, and C13 should all be of high-grade RF tuning types. The crystal is of similar grade to a color sub-carrier crystal in that it needs good setting stability with the possibility of being 'pulled' by about ± 750Hz for phase-locked operation. xn The center frequency is 6.041957MHz when series-connected with a load capacitance of 30pF. Capacitor C17 and coil L2 form a • Application Note Signetics Linear Products The 5-Chip Set Teletext Decoder rejector circuit to avoid oscillation outside the correct frequency range of the crystal. Inductor L1 and capacitor C15 form the data clock recovery-tuned circuit. A coil Q-factor of greater than 50 is essential for good clock recovery. A component with an unloaded Q of 90 is commonly employed. The clock coil is tuned on test by applying a video signal at Pin 3 of PL3 containing data lines with pseudorandom data at 5.727272MHz preferably throughout the normal display period for ease of observation on an oscilloscope. This should be connected to Pin 18 of VIP. The coil is adjusted for minimum jitter of the clock falling edge, which should occur approximately at the center of the 'eye' pattern formed by syncing the source data on another trace of the oscilloscope. For best results, it is preferable to trigger the oscilloscope from the data clock of the generator used to form the test data. Phase-Locking Adjustments For Sync The series-tuning capacitor, C19, is used to adjust the center frequency of the crystal oscillator which determines horizontal (line) frequency phase-lock, whereas R10 is adjusted for field sync lock. The crystal circuit is adjusted first while observing an input video signal at Pin 3 of PL3, together with a line frequency signal such as that on VIP Pin 5 (,sandcastle waveform'). Connecting Pin 1 of VIP directly to the 12V rail allows the oscillator to free-run, and shunting the filter capacitor C1 with a 5.6M.I1 resistor gives a preferred initial offset. C19 is then adjusted to obtain a stationary relationship between the two signals. The test connections on Pin 1 of VIP and C1 should be removed when the two waveforms are to remain solidly locked in phase. Field sync adjustment can then be carried out by adjusting R10 while observing the output of (FS) at Pin 13 of VIP together with the field February 1987 AN153 sync of the incoming video. When correctly adjusted, the rising edge of (FS) should be half-way along the second broad pulse of the field sync pattern of the input video. This adjustment is important to ensure the correct selection of data lines in the vertical interval by the DEW signal. Field lock in the wrong position may cause the loss of one or more data lines. The adjustments of the decoder are now complete; all subsequent areas of operation are controlled by digital systems. Input and Output Requirements of VIP The video input from the TV should be 2.8Vp.p at Pin 3 of PL3 and its DC level notp.p greater than 7V. If higher, the electrolytic capacitor C5 (lI'F) may be reverse-biased and cause maloperation of the DC restoration circuit in VIP. Sync Output Signals The TV set may be synchronized via VIP if a synchronized display is required from AHS when the TV signal disappears. This is obtained from Pin 2 of PL3. The polarity can be set by connecting resistor R1 (1.5k.l1) via link (LPI) to + 12V or OV for negative- or positivegoing syncs, respectively. TAC (SAA5040B) Data from GALA is clocked into TAC Pin 2 by the data clock at Pin 3, and also, from GALA. When correct data is received write enable pulses are issued from Pin 15 (WOK). This is an indication that Hamming codes and parity are correct. Data is output in parallel from Pins 16 through 22 to RAM, while row address Ao through A4 are supplied by Pins 23 -27. Internal Data Writing to RAM Selected page numbers, called up by the remote-control Key Pad input, are written into the row zero position in RAM, together with indications such as 'HOLD' and timed-page 'time'. This function occurs during TV line 13-6 number 37 only. At this time the display enable (DE) output Pin 9 is held low and WOK pulses are emitted at Pin 15 in two groups of 8, corresponding to the first and last eight character spaces in row zero. Since this function occurs outside of the DEW period, the column counters are driven by read address pulses (RACK) from TIC. Character Generator, TROM (SAA5050) The character generator IC, (SAA5050) receives data from RAM during the display period (TV lines 48 to 239, inclusive) and internally decodes the data to generate characters or control functions. TROM receives direct remote-control information on Pins 3 (DATA) and 11 (DUM) which control such functions as MIX (TV + text), and conceal! reveal. Control of display onloff (DE) and doubleheight are received from TAC on Pins 28 and 15, together with picture-on (PON), Pin 27. TROM outputs control signals to TIC from Pin 16 when 'Transmitted Large Characters' (TLC) are called up by transmitted data codes. The video output of TROM consists of R, G and B signals at Pins 24, 23 and 22 (opencollector) and a Y Signal, Pin 21 (opencollector). Blanking is obtained at Pin 25 (open-collector) to switch the TV video on and off under control of Signals decoded in TROM. Superimpose signals from Pin 2 are used to modify the contrast setting of the TV video when MIX mode is called up (by remotecontrol or News Flash). This output Pin must be connected via a pull-up resistor of 1Ok.l1 to the + 5V rail, whether its output is used or not. The R, G, B, Y and Blanking output buffers will drive interface circuits directly, if required, provided that the open-circuit output voltage does not exceed 13.2V maximum.

ABSTRACT The new generation teletext decoder, unlike its predecessor introduced in 1976, is user programmable under the control of a general purpose microcomputer or microprocessor. The new decoder is programmable to operate in the Vertical Blanking Interval (VBI) or full field teletext mode of operation. It can, simultaneously, acquire multi-pages resulting in a much faster system response time. The new teletext decoder is 12C bus controlled; therefore it is easy to integrate into any digitally-controlled 12C bus system. The modular nature of the 12C bus architecture allows the system deSigner to add to or delete from his or her system various function blocks. The teletext decoder can be treated as one of these blocks. INTRODUCTION Integrated Circuit (IC) technology has marched a long way since the advent of the first generation teletext decoder in 1976. Some improvements and new features can now be economically incorporated in the second generation decoder while keeping the chip count even lower than its first generation counterpart. The new generation teletext decoder is microcomputer (or microprocessor) controlled. It is user programmable and therefore more flexible and friendlier to use. Today, virtually every system is microprocessor controlled. The microprocessor controls various special purpose peripheral chips, each controlling one or more functions of the overall system. One of these peripheral chips can control the television tuning function while another chip can control the teletext acquisition and display function. The system can be designed in a modular fashion so that modules performing different functions can be added to or deleted from the system with minimal effort. The Inter-IC (12C) bus has been designed to achieve modularity. Bus interfacing problems are eliminated by integrating all the necessary bus handshake logic in the on-Chip silicon. The 12C bus is a serial bus consisting of two THE NEW GENERATION TELETEXT DECODER The new generation teletext decoder consists of a super data slicer (the Video Input Processer - VI P), the teletext controller chip, multipage memory, and a general purpose microcomputer (see Figure 1): The microcomputer communicates with the teletext controller via the 12 C. The microcomputer can be either a master or a slave; the teletext controller chip is a slave-only device. The new teletext controller is an 12C peripheral and belongs to the large "CLIPS" family. The new 12 C teletext decoder can be integrated in a system where a single microcomputer is used. The microcomputer is the only master and controls other system functions in addition to the teletext decoder, simultaneously (see Figure 2). On the other hand, since 12C bus concept allows modularity, a multi-master system can be easily implemented (see Figure 3). In the single master system, the system designer should allow for possible future software (and, consequently, memory) expansion. This is necessary to allow future system expansion. In the multi-master case, only one microcomputer is shown to receive and decode remote control commands. This microcomputer will then communicate the different commands to other microcomputers via the 12C bus. Microcomputers with built-in 12C bus interface are available today. The instruction set is based on that of the industry standard 8048 microcomputer family. The New Teletext Decoder Acquisition Circuitry The teletext decoder accepts as input a composite video baseband signal. This signal is readily available in a TV set (to be discussed later). Digital data is inserted in the Vertical Blanking Interval (VBI) or into, virtually, all available TV lines (full-field). The acquisition Circuitry can be programmed to operate in the VBI or in a full-field mode. Full-field teletext is a useful feature contributing to a very fast system response time but, obvious- 1984 IEEE Reprinted with permission from IEEE transactions on Consumer electronics Volume CE- 30, Number 3, page 429-436, August 1984 February 1987 13-8 Iy, does not permit any video information to be transmitted. Since high-speed teletext digital data (data rate is 6.93MHz in Europe and only 5.72MHz in North America due to bandwidth limitation) is transmitted via broadcast information, a high performance data slicer is essential to have at the receiving end. The video input processor should have good data slicing capability in the presence of echoes, noise, and co-channel interference. The device should provide compensation for high-frequency losses and be able to regenerate the clock from the digital data. The digital data can have different rates, as mentioned above. Other desirable features that the video input processor might have include: providing a mechanism by which it is easy to lock to a VCR; having a minimal number of external components/adjustments required; being able to accept many levels of peak-topeak amplitudes of the composite video input; and last, but not least, consuming low power. Digital data and its associated clock (Figure 4) can now be presented by the video input processor in a nice clean form to the teletext controller chip. The teletext controller is looking for the page addressing information, imbedded in the page header - row number 0 - to find a match with the prespecified page number requested by the user via the remote control keypad. When a page address match is found, this page is captured and stored in page memory. In order to speed up the system response time and to make it friendlier to use, the acquisition circuitry is designed to capture four teletext pages simultaneously. Four independent acquisition circuits co-exist on the teletext controller and are able to capture four pages simultaneously. The four acquired pages can be specified, by the user program, to be the requested page plus the next three sequential pages or the requested page plus the next three linked pages as specified by the linking information received in ghost row number 27. The teletext controller can then support up to 8k bytes of memory. " ghost rows are to be received and decoded for, 2k bytes of memory will be needed per teletext page.

This is due to the simple fact that a one-to-one correspondence exists between transmission codes, acquisition memory, display memory, and the actual display position on the screen. Due to the fact that teletext information is being constantly cycled through the system, an error received during one cycle can be automatically corrected during a subsequent cycle. The New Teletext Decoder Display Circuitry ~ REMOTE CONTROL HANDSET Figure 1. Computer-Controlled Teletext (CCT) Decoder Block Diagram Since four pages can be acquired and stored in the acquisition memory simultaneously, but only one page can be displayed at a time, a display chapter register, residing on the teletext controller chip, is user programmable to select which acquired page is to be displayed. The display memory is, physically, the same as the acquisition memory. Ghost rows are not displayable and the display consists of 25 rows, (the 25th row contains locally generated status information), 40 characters each. The character cell occupies a 12 X 10 dot matrix, giving nicely shaped characters at 12MHz dot rate. The display could be interlaced or non-interlaced. There are four control functions that can be individually turned on or off under user software control. These are: TV picture, text, background, and contrast reduction. Boxed text information in a TV picture can be displayed by specifying the "Start box", "End box" control characters. Figure 2. Centralized Control Structure l2Csus TO OTHER r-------- MODULES I I I --------, I I L ________________ I ~ The teletext controller provides RGB outputs as well as a blanking output and a contrast reduction output. These outputs can be used as they are or a video buffer stage can be added (see Figure 4). This stage consists of emitter followers and clamping diodes. The diodes clamp the upper voltage values to a potential suitable for the particular TV receiver's contrast control. The blanking output is a combined box and dot blanking (full screen). The contrast reduction output is used for implementing more readable mixed (text over video) displays or to implement subtitles in reduced contrast boxes. If a composite video display is desirable, a single chip multi-standard color encoder is available to produce PAL or NTSC compatible displays. TELETEXT DECODER MODULE Figure 3. Distributed Control Architecture The new acquisition circuitry can be programmed to receive the normal 7-bit plus one parity bit or 8-bit byte data. This is useful when a more sophisticated error correction scheme (such as CRG) needs to be implemented. The 8-bit mode is also instrumental February 1987 in implementing the "telesoitware" concept. Through telesoitware, computer programs can be down-loaded and acquired as teletext information. 13-9 It is important to note that the new teletext decoder provides a secure means to synchronize the incoming video with the resulting text/video display. In addition, the decoder generates a composite sync signal that is suitable for driving the display time base; • Signetics Linear Products Application Note Teletext Decoders: Keeping Up With the Latest Technology Advances AN154 THE 12C BUS - GENERAL CONCEPT Many system applications do not require very fast data transfer offered by the traditional parallel schemes. As shown in Figure 5, a typical microcomputer-controlled television receiver using a parallel bus type architecture implies a large number of interconnects, devices with a large number of pinouts and a bigger layout area. Since many applications do not necessarily need the speed offered by parallel bus type architecture, an economical, easy to implement solution can be used. Figure 6 depicts the television receiver block diagram designed around the 2-wire 12 C serial bus. VIDEO INPUT PROCESSOR Figure 4. Teletext Decoder - Detailed Block Diagram Many devices have been implemented with on-chip 12C bus interface logic. These devices communicate through the 2-wire serial bus. The system designer will no longer worry about the communication interface between the different blocks in his or her system and can now concentrate on the more important issues: the function/system requirements. Devices with built-in 12C bus interface can be added to or· deleted from the system by simply "clipping" them to the common 2-wire bus. The only limitation is the bus capacitance of 400pF. Hence a collection of these devices is known as "CLIPS". The 12C bus consists of 2 bidirectional lines, the Serial Data (SDA) line and the Serial Clock (SCl) line. Devices with built-in 12C bus interface can be implemented in any technology, i.e., NMOS, CMOS, 12 l, TIL, etc. These devices are connected together (wired-AND) to form an 12C bus-based system, provided that they all exhibit an open collector output at each of their respective SDA and SCl lines. Figure 5. Conventional Microcomputer Controlled TV Receiver Block Diagram The 12 C bus concept allows a flexible master/ slave relationship. to exist. A device master during the present bus cycle can be a device slave during the following bus cycle. An 12C bus cycle starts with a START condition (see Figures 7 and 8). A 7-bit device (slave) address is then sent followed by a single bit to determine the direction of the data transfer. A ninth clock pulse is then generated by the master device to allow the addressed receiver to acknowledge reception of this byte. Now any number of 8-bit data transfers can take place with the receiver acknowledging each byte after it has been received. At the end of the data transfer, the device master generates a STOP condition. The 12C bus USeS the wired-AND concept to achieve clock synchronization and proper arbitration between different device masters in the system. If two device masters start bidding for the bus simultaneously by generating the start condition, they will both be February 1987 SDA .c SCL I 11-' KEYBOARD REMOTE CONTROL II DECODER ___ J Figure 6. Block Diagram TV Receiver 12C Based driving the SDA and the SCl lines. Clock synchronization is easily achieved through the wired-AND connection. The resulting clock will have a lOW period determined by the device master with the longest clock lOW period. The HIGH period of the resulting clock is determined by the device master with the shortest clock HIGH period. 13-10 Arbitration procedure in an 12C bus system is also easy to implement. Keep in mind that all devices are wire-ANDed and that a master device driving the SDA line will sample that line during the same clock period. In Figure 9 master device 1 is driving the data line HIGH but the resulting SDA line is lOW (due to master device 2) and so transmitter 1 loses Signetics Linear Products Application Note Teletext Decoders: Keeping Up With the latest Technology Advances arbitration, after detecting that condition, and prepares itself as a slave that could be addressed during this very same cycle. Note that no time is wasted for the arbitration procedure since both address and data information is used to determine the winning bus master. It is very comforting to know that all of the functions above have been implemented on all of the "CLIPS" peripherals. This allows system designers to implement modular ar· chitectures and build systems around the various available function blocks. Each function block, in its simplest form, can be one of the "CLIPS" peripherals. AN154 In Figure 10, the digital portion of the TV chassis is depicted to be 12C controlled. Some of the function blocks can be imple· mented with a single chip belonging to the "CLIPS" peripheral set. For example, the tuning function, as well as controlling the various analog signals, is implemented using one of the "CLIPS" peripherals. Non·volatile serial memory devices (1 2C bus compatible) as well as LCD display drivers are readily available and can be, as explained earlier, clipped to the 12C bus. 11 1 Teletext Decoder as a Set-Top Adapter Teletext service can be incorporated in exist· ing TV receivers through the addition of a set· top adapter. The set·top adapter concept is familiar through the use of the CATV cable converter boxes. The set·top adapter con· cept will offer the average consumer teletext and cable TV service as well as a remote control feature. This is true even though his or her existing TV is, at present, not remotely controlled. 11 1 8 11 111 ~··~·~·~·~---------4·+··--·I~·~·~··----~r'~'~I~'------'r'~'~I~'~'~1 NUMBEROFl BITS 7 8 ~1-s~I-S~--VE-A-DD-R-ES-s~I~--~I~A-rI-D-~-A-r1-A~I-D-A-~-rl-A~I-p-'I TELETEXT DECODER - SYSTEM INTEGRATION TV Receiver With Built-In Teletext Decoder Teletext decoders, in general, can be easily integrated into TV receivers. In reality, TV receivers can be considered a natural home to house teletext decoders. The input to the teletext decoder is composite video, base· band signal which is already available at the output of the demodulator stage in a typical TV receiver (see Figure 10). The output of the teletext decoder consists of RGB signals, blanking and contrast reduction/control signals. The signals are of open·collector type and can be easily manipulated. A simple video output circuit might be needed at the output of the teletext decoder, the purpose of which is to provide the buffer/drive capability and the appropriate voltage level control suitable for the TV receiver under consideration. These signals can then be combined with the existing RGB and contrast control Signals available at the output of the TV video amplifier stage. S=START A = ACKNOWLEDGE P=STDP Figure 7.

AN154 SUMMARY The newly introduced teletext decoder is discussed. The decoder is microcomputercontrolled so it is user-programmable. The teletext controller chip belongs to the diversified number of 12C bus peripherals, known as "CLIPS", and therefore can be easily integrated in an 12C bus controlled digital system. The new decoder performs well under poor signal conditions, it can work in either VBI or full-field mode, it offers an easy, effective way to implement the "telesoftware" concept, it can acquire multi-telatext pages simultaneously resulting in a fast system response time and is capable of displaying interlaced or non-interlaced type displays.

This is measured with the dual polarity buffer external resistor connected to give negative-going syncs. The measurement is made after adjustment of the potential divider at Pin 14 for optimum delay. 2. The teletext data input contains binary elements as a two-level NRZ signal shaped by a raised cosine filter. The bit rate is 6.9375Mbitls. The use of odd parity for the B-bit bytes ensures that there are never more than 14-bit periods between each data transition. 3. This is measured by replacing the clock coil with a small value resistor. 4. This must be measured with the clock coil tuned and using a clock-cracker signal into Pin 16. The clock-cracker is a teletext waveform consisting of only one data transition in each byte. 5. With the external resistor connected to the ground rail, syncs are positive-going centered on + 2.3V. With the resistor connected to the supply rail, syncs are negative-going centered on +9.7V. 6. When the composite sync is being delivered, the level is substantially the same as that at the video input. January 14, 1987 13-28 Signetics Linear Products Product Specification Teletext Video Processor APPLICATION DATA The function is quoted against the corresponding pin number Signal Presence Time Constant - A capacitor and a resistor connected in parallel between this pin and supply determine the delay in operation of the signal presence detector. 2 Line Reset Time Constant - A capacitor between this pin and supply integrates current pulses from the coincidence detector; the resultant level is used to determine whether to allow FLR pulses (see Pin 3). 3 Fast Line Reset Output (FLR) - Positivegoing sync pulses are produced at this output if the coincidence detector shows no coincidence between the syncs separated from the incoming video and the eBB waveform from the timing chain circuit SAA5020. These pulses are sent to the timing chain circuit and are used to reset its counters, so as to effect rapid lock-up of the phase-locked loop. 4 Ground (OV) 5 Sandcastle Input (PL and CBB) - This input accepts a sand castle waveform which is formed from PI and eBB from the timing chain SAA5020. PI is obtained by slicing the waveform at 2.5V, and this, together with separated sync, are inputs to the phase detector which forms part of the phase-locked loop. When the loop has locked up, the edges of PI are nominally 2Jls before and 2JlS after the leading edge of separated line syncs. eBB is obtained by slicing the waveform at 5V, and is used to prevent the data slicer from being offset by the color burst. 6 6MHz Output (F6) - This is the output of the crystal oscillator (see Pins 8 and 9), SAA5030 and is taken to the timing chain circuit SAA5020 via a series capacitor. 7 Phase Detector Time Constant - The integrating components for the phase detector of the phase-locked loop are connected between this pin and supply. 8,9 6MHz Crystal - A 6MHz crystal in series with a trimmer capacitor is connected between these pins. It forms part of an oscillator whose frequency is controlled by the voltage on Pin 7, which forms part of the phase-locked loop. 10 Picture On Input (PO) - The PO signal, from the acquisition and control circuits SAA5040 series, is fed to this input and is used to determine whether the input video (Pin 16) or the AHS waveform (Pin 11) appears at Pin 12. 11 After Hours Sync (AHS) - A composite sync waveform AHS is generated in the timing chain circuit SAA5020 and is used to synchronize the TV (see Pin 10). 12 Sync Output to TV - The input video of AHS is available at this output dependent on whether the PO signal is High or Low. In addition, either signal may be positivegoing or negative-going, dependent on whether the load resistor at this output is connected to ground or supply. 13 Field Sync Output (FS) - A pulse, derived from the input video by the field sync separator, which is used to reset the line counter in the timing chain circuit SAA5020. 14 Field Sync Separator Timing - A capacitor and adjusting network is connected to this pin and forms the integrator of the field sync separator. 16 Composite Video Input (VI) - The composite video is fed to this input via a coupling capacitor. 17 Supply Voltage (+ 12V) 18 Clock Output - The regenerated clock, after extraction from the teletext data, is fed out to the acquisition and control circuits SAA5040 series via a series capacitor. 19 Data Output - The teletext data is sliced off the video waveform, squared up, and latched within the SAA5030. The latched output is fed to the acquisition and control circuits SAA5040 series via a series capacitor. 20 Clock Decoupling - A 1nF capacitor between Pin 20 and ground is required for clock decoupling. 21 Clock Regenerator Coil - A high-Q parallel tuned circuit is connected between this pin and an external potential divider. The coil is part of the clock regeneration circuit (see Pin 22). 22 Clock Pulse Timing Capacitor - Short pulses are derived from both edges of data with the aid of a capaCitor connected to this pin. The resulting pulses are fed, as a current, into the clock coil connected to Pin 21. Resulting oscillations are limited and taken to the acquisition and control circuits SAA5040 series via Pin 18. 23, 24 Peak Detector CapaCitors - The teletext data is sliced with an automatic data slicer, having a slicing level at the mid-point of two peak detectors working on the video signal. Storage capacitors are connected to these pins for the negative and positive peak detectors. 15 Sync Separator Capacitor - A capacitor connected to this pin forms part of the adaptive sync separator. • January 14, 1987 13-29 Signetlcs Linear Products Product Specification Teletext Video Processor SAA5030 TOSAA5040 DATA +12V AELDSYNCTO SAA5020 (SAA5025) CLOCK .J'L..-880 t~·e~H IOfc33OpF Q o =90 1,nF ,. f- InF 33k 1,nF l33OpF147PF 23 22 21 19 20 : 1.21< 1.21< ~~ 24 ~ InF J3'~F I~F + ~ r;;- r,;- ~16 *G C 15 14 NO I~F VIDEO + r o FROM TV 13 SAA5030 3 2 I 4 LT ~6MHz L t 5-~F ~ ,., Uk - i..- 8.8k .--100k +T 10",F T 100nF UNERESETTO SAAS020 (SAA5025) am COMPOsrrE SYNC TO TV Ik Pi: FROM SAAS020 T InF &MHz TO SAAS020 (SAA5025) (SAA6025) Figure 1.

January 14, 1987 13-31 Signetics SAA5040 Teletext Acquisition and Control Circuit Product Specification Linear Products DESCRIPTION The SAA5040A, SAA5040B, SAA5040C, SAA5041, SAA5042 and SAA5043 form the SAA5040 series of MOS N-channel integrated circuits. They perform the control, data acquisition and data routing functions of the teletext system. The circuits differ in the on-screen display that is provided and in the decoding of the remote-control commands. The functions of the circuits are detailed in Tables 1, 2 and 3; throughout the remainder of the data, the SAA5040 is referred to when the complete series of circuits is being described. The SAA5040 is a 28-lead device which receives serial teletext data and clock signals from the remote-control systems incorporating the SAA5012 or SAB3022, SAB3023 decoder circuits. The SAA5040 selects the required page information and feeds it in parallel form to the teletext page memory. The SAA5040 works in conjunction with the SAA5020 timing chain and the SAA5050 series of character generators. The circuit consists of two main sections. a. Data acquisition section The basic input to this section is the serial teletext data stream DATA from the SAA5030 video processor circuit. This data stream is clocked at a 6.9375MHz clock rate (F7) from the SAA5030. The incoming data stream is processed and sorted so that the page of data selected by the user is written as 7-bit parallel words into the system memory. Hamming and parity checks are performed on the incoming data to reduce errors. Provision is also made to process the control bits in the page header. b. Control section The basic input to this section is the 7bit serial data (DATA) from the remote control decoder circuit such as the SAA5012 or SAB3012. This is clocked by the DUM signal. February 12, 1987 The remote-control commands are decoded and the control functions are stored. PIN CONFIGURATION N Package Full details of the remote-control commands used in the various SAA5040 series options are given in Tables 1, 2 and 3. The control section also writes data into the page memory independently of the data acquisition section. This gives an on-screen display of certain user-selected functions such as page number and program name. The 3-State data and address outputs to the system memory are set to high impedance state if certain remote-control commands are received (e.g., viewdata mode). This is to allow another circuit to access the memory. using the same address and data lines. The address lines are also high impedance while the acquisition and control circuit is not writing into the memory. Further information on the control of the complete teletext system is available. The circuit is designed in accordance with the September 1976 Broadcast Teletext specification published by BBC/ IBAIBREMA. A typical circuit diagram of a teletext decoder is shown in Figure 5.

This signal is also used to enable the five memory address outputs (Pins 23 to 27) and the 7-bit parallel data outputs (Pins 16 to 22). 8 PO Picture On - This output to the SAA5012, SAA5030 and SAA5050 circuits is a static level used for the selection of TV picture video 'on' or 'off'. The output is High for TV picture 'ON', Low for TV picture 'OFF'. The output has an internal pull-up to Voo. 9 DE Display Enable - This output to the SAA5050 teletext character generator is used to enable the teletext display. The output is High for display enabled, Low for display disabled. The output is also forced to the Low state during the DEW and TV line 40 periods and when a teletext page is cleared. control the writing of valid data into the system memory. The signal is Low to write, and is in the high impedance state when viewdata is selected. The 3-State buffer is enabled at the same time as the data outputs (see below). An internal pull-up device prevents the output from floating into the Low state when the 3-State buffer is OFF. 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22 07 to 01, Data Outputs - These 3-State outputs are the 7bit parallel data outputs to the system memory. The outputs are enabled at the following times: a. During the data entry window (DEW) to write teletext data into the memory.

During TV line 40 for encoded status information about user commands (e.g., program number), to be written into the memory. This period is known as EDIL (encoded data insertion line). The data rate is 1MB per second and is derived from the 1MHz display clock F1. c. When the page is cleared. In this case, the data output is forced to the space code (0100000) during the display period for one field. This data is held at the space code from either TV line 40 (if page clear is caused by user command), or the received teletext data line causing the clear function, until the start of the data entry window (DEW) of the next field. The output has an internal pull-up to Voo. 10 BCS Big Character Select - This output to the SAA5020 timing chain and to the SAA5050 character generator is used to select double height character format under user control.

Gearing Control Section The data from the SAA5030 (VIP) and data clock are processed to detect the presence of the gearing bit and convert the data for correct operation of the SAA5040B (TAG). Data and clock outputs to the TAC are internally compensated for processing delays, so that correct clocking-in of data is ensured. The address output buffers are 3-State devices controlled by the line reset signal (Pin 8; GLRS). During the horizontal flyback period, the address pins are 3-State to allow alternative addressing for customized applications. Read/Write Control to RAM An internal counter prevents overwriting if more than 32 character WOK pulses are received from TAC due to poor transmission conditions. Two control outputs, one for read/write (WE) and the other for chip select (CS), are provided to eliminate conflicts on the input/output RAM bus. Addressing Section Framing Code Detection Column counters are included, which operate from the WACK (TAG) and RACK (USTIG) column clock signals during acquisition and display respectively. When a valid data line is received and the framing code is detected in the gearing section, then flag pulses (pair of pulses) are available at output WE, before the CS output is driven Low for normal writing into the RAM. If a framing-code-present signal is required, it can be obtained by gating WE and CS outputs such that an output from the WE, when output CS is High indicates the detection of a framing code; N.B., each framing code produces a pair of pulses. Five row-address input circuits (pins AO to A4) are provided for (TAG) and (USTIC) address outputs. These are multiplexed with the column address from the internal counters for correct mapping of the RAM via ten output address pins (AAO to AA9). During acquisition, the multiplexer is controlled by. the gearing bit detection to give correct assembly of the 40-character per row page structure.

During display, MUX3 is switched by Bit 6 of the column counter. MUX1, which is switched by the gearing bit, controls stepping of the row address when fill-in rows are received. MUX2 is switched by either the gearing bit or Bit 6 of the column counter to access the part of RAM storing the last eight bytes of each row of data. The mapping of the 1024-byte RAM is shown in Figure 1. Area" A" stores data corresponding to the left-hand side (32 bytes wide) of the display and area "B" stores the remainder for the right-hand side. Access to the RAM for custom operations can be made during the time that GLRS (Pin 8) is Low, which causes all ten address buffers to be in the open state. It should be noted that GLRS Low also resets the column counters and the gearing-bit detection system to logic "0". This normally occurs during the horizontal interval (between 5 and 811S) after the horizontal sync pulse falling edge.

Schematic Diagram of the 5-Chlp Decoder December 2, 1986 13-47 Signe1ics SAA5050j55 Teletext Character Generator Product Specification Linear Products DESCRIPTION The SAA5050 series of MOS N-channel integrated circuits provides the video drive signals to the television receiver necessary to produce the teletext/viewdata display. The SAA5050 is a 28-pin device which incorporates a fast access character generator ROM (4.3kbits), the logic decoding for all the teletext control characters and decoding for some of the remote control functions. The circuit generates 96 alphanumeric and 64 graphic characters. In addition there are 32 control characters which determine the nature of the display. The SAA5050 is suitable for direct connection to the SAA5010, SAA5012, SAA5020 and SAA5040 Series integrated circuits. The basic input to the SAA5050 is the character data from the teletext page memory. This is a 7-bit code. Each character code defines a dot matrix pattern. The character period is 11LS and the character dot rate is 6MHz. The timings are derived from the two external input clocks F1 (1 MHz) and TR6 (6MHz) which are amplified and re-synchronized internally. Each character rectangle is 6 dots wide by 10 TV lines high. One dot space is left between adjacent characters, and there is one line space left between rows. Alphanumeric characters are generated on a 5 X 9 matrix, allowing space for descending characters. Each of the 64 graphic characters is decoded to form a 2 X 3 block arrangement which occupies the complete 6 X 10 dot matrix (Figure 7). Graphics characters may be either contiguous or separated (Figure 8). The alphanumeric characters are character rounded, i.e, a half dot is inserted before or after a whole dot in the presence of a diagonal in a character matrix. of the PO and DE inputs and the box control characters (see Table 3). PIN CONFIGURATION The monochrome data signal can be used to inlay characters into the television video. The use of the 32 control characters provides information on the nature of the display, e.g., color. These are also used to provide other facilities such as 'concealed display' and flashing words, etc. The full character set is given in Table 1.

Power-On Reset When the supply voltage is switched on, the character generator will reset to TV, conceal, and not superimpose modes. Character Rounding The character rounding function is different for the small and double height characters. In both cases the ROM is accessed twice during the character period of 11J.s. The dot information of two rows is then compared to detect the presence of any diagonal in the character matrix and to determine the positioning of the character rounding half dots. For small characters, rounding is always referenced in the same direction (i.e., row before in even fields and row after in odd fields as determined by the CRS signal). For double height characters, rounding is always referenced alternately up and down, changing every line using an internally-generated signal. (The CRS signal is '0' for the odd field and' l' for the even field of an interlaced TV picture). Graphics Decoder The 64 graphic characters are decoded directly from the character data inputs and appear on a 2 X 3 matrix. Figure 7 gives details of the graphics decoding. APPLICATION DATA The function is quoted against the corresponding pin numbers. 1 Vss Ground - OV. 2 Sl Superimpose - This is a dual purpose input! output pin. The output is an open drain transistor (capable of sinking current to Vss), which is in the conducting state when superimpose mode is selected. This allows contrast reduction of the TV picture in superimpose mode, if required. If the pin is held low, the internal 'TV mode' flip-flop is held in the 'text' state. This is for VDU applications when the remote control is not used. February 25, 1987 SAA5050j55 3 DATA Remote Control Data - This input accepts a 7-bil serial data stream from the remote control decoder. This data contains the teletext and viewdata remote control functions. The nominal data rate is 32IJ.s!bit. The command codes used in the SAA5050 are shown in Table 2. 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 D1 to D7 Character Data - These inputs accept a 7-bit parallel data code from the page memory. This data selects the alphanumeric characters, the graphics characters and the control characters. The alphanumeric addresses are ROM column addresses, the graphics and control data are decoded internally. 11 DLiM - This input receives a clock signal from the remote control decoder and this signal is used to clock remote control data into the SAA5050. The positive-going edge of every second clock pulse is nominally in the center of each remote control data bit (Figure 6). 12 GLR General Line Reset - This input Signal from the SAA5020 Timing Chain is required for internal synchronization of remote control data signals. 13 DEW Data Entry Window - This input signal from the SAA5020 Timing Chain is required to reset the internal ROM row address counter prior to the display period. It is also used internally to derive the 'flash' period. 14 CRS Character Rounding Select This input signal from the SAA5020 Timing Chain is required for correct character rounding of displayed characters (normal height characters only). 15 BCS Big Character Select - This input from the SAA5040 Teletext Acquisition and Control device allows selection of large characters by remote control. 16 TLC Transmitted Large Characters This output to the SAA5020 Timing Chain enables double height characters to be displayed as a result of control characters stored in the page memory. 18 Vee + 5V Supply - This is the power supply input to the circuit. 13-53 19 TR6 - This input is a 6MHz signal from the SAA5020 Timing Chain used as a character dot rate clock. 20 F1 - This input is a 1MHz equal mark! space ratio signal from the SAA5020 Timing Chain. It is used to latch the 7-bit parallel character data into the input latches. It is also used to synchronize an internal divide-by-6 counter. The F1 signal is internally synchronized with TR6. 21 Y Output - This is a video output signal which is active in the high state containing character dot information for TV display. The output is an open drain transistor capable of sinking current to Vss. 22, 23, 24 B, G, R Outputs - These are the Blue, Green and Red Character video outputs to the TV display circuits. They are active high and contain both character and background color information. The outputs are open drain transistors capable of sinking current to Vss. 25 BLAN Blanking - This active high output signal provides TV picture video blanking. It is active for the duration of a box when Picture On and Display Enable are high. It is also activated permanently for normal teletext display when no TV picture is required (PO low). The output is an open drain transistor capable of sinking current to Vss. Full details are given in Table 3. 26 LOSE Load Output Shift Register Enable - This input signal from the SAA5020 Timing Chain resets the internal control character flip-flops prior to the start of each display line. It also defines the character display period. 27 PO Picture On - This input signal from the SAA5040 Teletext Acquisition and Control device is used to control the character video and blanking outputs. When PO is high, only text in boxes is displayed unless in superimpose mode. The input is high for TV picture video on, low for picture off (see Table 3). 28 DE Display Enable - This input signal from the SAA5040 Teletext Acquisition and Control device is used to enable the teletext display. The input is high for teletext display enabled. Low for display cancelled (see Table 3).

Basic Videotex Decoder Configuration BASIC VIDEOTEX DECODER CONFIGURATION required to define explicitly every character in a row. A basic, practical decoder configuration is shown in Figure 12. Reference should also be made to the Block Diagram. The addresser is used for row buffer filling and for fetching screen colors, and during the display time it is also used for addressing ORCS characters. Character and attribute data is fetched from the external memory, processed by the row buffer fill logic according to the stack coding scheme (in stack mode) and then fed into one half of the dual display row buffer. The data fetch process takes place during one lineflyback period (per row) and, since time is required to complete the fill, the other half of the dual row buffer Is used for display. The row buffers exchange functions on alternate rows - each holds the 40 columns of 32 bits January 14, 1987 Timing The timing chain operates from an external 6MHz clock or an on-chip fixed-frequency crystal oscillator. The basic video format is 40 characters per row, 24/25 rows per page, and 10 video liries per row. EUROM will also operate with 20/21 rows per page and 12 video lines per row. The two extra lines per row are added symmetrically and contain 13-80 background color only for ROM-based alphanumeric characters. ORCS characters, block and smooth mosaics, and line drawing characters occupy all 12 lines. The display is generated to the normal 625line/50Hz scanning standard (interlaced or non-interlaced). In addition to composite sync (Pin 32) for conventional timebases, a clock output at lMHz or 6MHz (Pin 29) is available for driving other videotex devices, and a 12MHz clock (Pin 27) is available for hardcopy dot synchronization. A defined-displayarea timing signal (Pin 33) simplifies the application of external peripherals such as a light pen; this signal is nominally coincident with the character dot information. Signetics Linear Products Product Specification Single-Chip Color CRT Controller (625-Line System) Character Generation EUROM supports eight character tables, each of (nominally) 126 characters. Four tables are in on-chip ROM and contain fixed characters, and four are stored in an external RAM. The contents of the fixed character SAA5350 tables (Tables 0 to 3) are shown in Figures 13 and 14.

Such a system exploits the natural redundancy of normal text by allocating memory dynamically. It allows the external memory to be reduced to 2kbytes per screen. This has beneficial side effects; for example, it reduces the memory bandwidth for a given display, reducing the memory speed required or increasing the time available for microprocessor operations. pointer character-code. 7 bit ::> attribute and character character memory group memory Example of Dynamic Allocation of Memory Using Coding Stack Stack coding used in APDC B7 B6 B5 B4 B3 B2 B1 BO COMMENTS P 0 0 F4 F3 F2 F1 FO P 0 84 83 B2 B1 BO H4 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 H3 L 0 0 0 1 1 1 H2 T2 0 1 1 0 0 1 H1 T1 G 0 1 0 1 0 HO TO D U I C W H Foreground color (PIBGR) Transparent = 000000 Background color (PIBGR) Transparent = 00000 Flash Character table and lock bit Size. double height and width Underline (Lining) Invert Conceal Window/Box Marked area (not a display attribute) Protected area (not a display attribute) P P P P P P P P 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 P P The fourth character in the row has its painter bit set, and so the first (or, generally, the next) attribute byte is fetched from memory. This byte also has its pointer bit set, and so the next attribute byte is also fetched, and so on. The fourth attribute byte has a clear pointer bit indicating that it is the last in the group. The next character byte is now fetched. The pointer being clear, this character is displayed with the same attributes as those set for the previous one. 13-98 The stack system records only the position in a row where attribute-changes occur, with no restriction upon how many attribute-changes apply to anyone character. The restriction to 40 attribute-changes in a row has been carefully studied, and not found in practice to be an editorial limitation. The actual coding of attributes, a form of Huffman coding, is shown below. NOTE: Previously published as "Technical Information 137," ELCOMA, October 1984.

The toroidal transformer in Figure 4a is for obtaining a pulse representing the midflyback from the deflection current. The connection of the picture phase information is shown in Figure 4b. 3 Reference Frequency Input - The input circuit can be driven direolly by the squarewave output voltage from Pin 8 of the TDA2571. The negative-going transient switches the current source connected to Pin 1 from positive to negative. The input circuit is made such that a differentiated signal of the square-wave from the TDA2571 is also accepted (this enables power line isolation). The Input circuit switching level is about 3V and the input impedance is about 8kn. 4 Restart Count Capacitor/Remote-Control Input - Counting An external capacitor (C4 = 471J.F) is connected between Pins 4 and 16. This capacitor controls the characteristics of the protection circuits as follows. If the proteolion circuits are required to operate, e.g., overcurrent at Pin 6, the duty faolor will be set to zero, thus turning off the power supply. After a short interval (determined by the time constant on Pin 5), the power supply will be restarted via the slow-start circuit. If the fault condition has cleared, then normal operation will be resumed. If the fault condition is persistent, the duty factor of the pulses is again reduced to zero and the proteolion cycle is repeated. February 12, 1987 r------, 'I --V- ~~2 i l t !L______ I The current values are chosen such that the correct phase relation is obtained when the output signal of the TDA2571 is applied to Pin 3. With a resistor of 2 X 33kn and a capacitor of 2.7nF, the control steepness is O.55V/p.s (Figure 3). " A TDA25a ~ ~ a. ~ b_ Figure 4 The number of times this action is repeated (n) for a persisting fault condition is now determined by: n = C4/C5. 7 Over voltage Protection Input - When the voltage applied to this pin exceeds the threshold level, the protection circuit will operate. Remote Control Input The tripping level is about the same as the reference voltage on Pin 10. For this application, the capacitor on Pin 4 has to be replaced by a resistor with a value between 4.7 and 18kn. When the externallyapplied voltage V4.16 > 5.6V, the circuit switches off; switching on occurs when V4-16 < 4.5V and the normal starting-up procedure is followed. Pin 4 is internally conneoled to an emitter-follower, with an emitter voltage of 1.5V. 5 Siow-Start and Transfer Characteristics for Low Feedback Voltage - stow-Start An external shunt capacitor (C5 = 4.71J.F) and resistor (R5 = 270kn) are connected between Pins 5 and 16. The network controls the rate at which the duty factor increases from zero to its steady-state value after switch-on. II provides protection against surges in the power transistor. Transfer Charactetfstlc for Low Feedback Voltages The duty factor transfer charaoleristic for low feedback voltages can be influenced by R5. The transfer for three different resistor values is given in Figure 6. 'Smooth' Remote ON/OFF The ON/OFF information should be applied to Pin 5 via a high-ohmic resistor; a high OFFlevel gives a slow rising voltage at Pin 5, which results in a slowly decreasing duty faolor. 6 Overcurrent Protection Input - A voltage proportional to the current in the power switching device is applied to the integrated circuit between Pins 6 and 16. The circuit trips on both positive and negative polarity. When the tripping level is reached, the output pulse is immediately blocked and the starting circuit is aolivated again. 14-10 8 Feedback Voltage Input - The control loop input is applied to Pin 8. This pin is internally connected to one input of a differ, ential amplifier, functioning as an amplitude comparator, the other input of which is conneoled to the reference source on Pin 10. Under normal operating conditions, the voltage on Pin 8 will be about equal to the reference voltage on Pin 10. For further information refer to Figures 6 and 7. 9 12V Positive Supply - The maximum voltage that may be applied is 14V. Where this is derived from an unstabilized supply rail, a regulator diode (12V) should be conneoled between Pins 9 and 16 to ensure that the maximum voltage does not exceed 14V. When the voltage on this pin falls below a minimum of 8.6V (typically 9.4V), the proteclion circuit will switch off the power supply. 10 Reference Input - An external reference diode must be connected between this pin and Pin 16. The reference voltage must be between 5.6 and 6.6V. The IC delivers about 1rnA .into the external regulator diode. When the external load on the regulator diode approaches this current, replenishment of the current can be obtained by conneoling a suitable resistor between Pins 9 and 10. A higher referencevoltage value up to 7.5V is allowed when use is made of a duty factor limiting resistor < 27kn between Pins 12 and 16. 11 Output - An external resistor determines the output current fed into the base of the driver transistor. The output circuit uses an NPN transistor with 3 series-conneoled clamping diodes to the internal 12V supply rail. This provides a low-impedance in the "ON" state, that is, with the drive transistor turned off. Signetics Linear Products Product Specification TDA2582 Control Circuit For Power Supplies 12 Maximum Duty-Factor Adjustment! Smoothing Maximum Duty-Factor Adjustment Pin 12 is connected to the output voltage of the amplitude comparator (V 10 _ 8). This voltage is internally connected to one input of a differential amplifier, the other input of which is connected to the sawtooth voltage of the horizontal oscillator. A high voltage on Pin 12 results in a low duty factor. This enables the maximum duty factor to be adjusted by limiting the voltage by connecting Pin 12 to the emitter of an NPN transistor used as a voltage source. Figure 8 plots the maximum duty factor as a function of the voltage applied to Pin 12. If some spread is acceptable, the maximum duty factor can also be limited by connecting a resistor from Pin 12 to Pin 16. A resistor of 12k>! limits the maximum duty factor to about 50%. This application also reduces the total IC gain. Smoothing Any double pulsing of the IC due to circuit layout can be suppressed by connecting a capacitor of about 470pF between Pins 12 and 16. 13 Oscillator Timing Network - The timing network comprises a capacitor between Pins 13 and 16, and a resistor between Pin 13 and the reference voltage on Pin 10. The charging current for the capacitor (C13) is derived from the voltage reference diode connected to Pin 10 and discharged via an internal resistor of about 330>!. 14 Reactance-Stage Reference Voltage This pin is connected to an emitter-follower which determines the nominal reference voltage for the reactance stage (lAV for reference voltage V10- 16 = 6.W). Free-running frequency is obtained when Pins 14 and 15 are short-circuited. 15 Reactance-Stage Input - The output voltage of the phase detector (Pin 1) is connected to Pin 15 via a resistor. The voltage applied to Pin 15 shifts the upper level of the voltage sensor of the oscillator, thus changing the oscillator frequency and phase. The time-constant network is connected between Pins 14 and 15. Control sensitivity is typically 5kHzlV. 16 Negative Supply (Ground) 1,5 100 typ Ab (%1 6 I'l(,l V12=2V ~ ,!>~o"'~ 0,5 o 2.5V ,>o"'<}.. ~.,., rf10"'~ 50 0 a so 0 6 b (%1 -50 typ o 50 a SO V8 _ 10 1mVI 100 Figure 7.

These pulses may be varied either in frequency (frequency regulation mode) or in width (duty factor regulation mode). The usual arrangement is such that the transistor in the SMPS is ON when the output of the TEA1039 is HIGH, I.e., when the opencollector output transistor is OFF. The duty factor of the SMPS is the time that the output of the TEA1039 is HIGH divided by the pulse repetition time. Supply Vee (Pin 9) The circuit is usually supplied from the SMPS that it regulates. It may be supplied either from its primary DC voltage or from its output voltage. In the latter case an auxiliary starting supply is necessary. The circuit has an internal Vee out-of-range protection. In the frequency regulation mode the oscillator is stopped; in the duty factor regulation mode the duty factor is made zero. When the supply voltage returns within its range, the circuit is started with the slow-start procedure. When the circuit is supplied from the SMPS itself, the out-of-range protection also provides an effective protection against any interruption in the feedback loop. Mode Input M (Pin 6) The circuit works in the frequency regulation mode when the mode input M is connected to ground (VEE, Pin 7). In this mode the circuit produces output pulses of a constant width but with a variable pulse repetition time. The circuit works in the duty factor regulation mode when the mode input M is left open. In November 14, 1986 this mode the circuit produces output pulses with a variable width but with a constant pulse repetition time. 0.8 1.5 1.2 V mVI"C 1.7 -1.4 2.1 V mV/oC Oscillator Resistor and Capacitor Connections RX and CX (Pins 4 and 5) is HIGH until the voltage on the capacitor exceeds the voltage on the feedback input FB; it becomes HIGH again after discharge of the capacitor (see Figures 5 and 6). An internal maximum limit is set to the duty factor of the SMPS by the discharging time of the capacitor. The output pulse repetition frequency is set by an oscillator whose frequency is determined by an external capacitor C5 connected between the CX connection (Pin 5) and ground (VEE, Pin 7), and an external resistor R4 connected between the RX connection (Pin 4) and ground. The capaCitor C5 is charged by an internal current source, whose current level is determined by the resistor R4. In the frequency regulation mode these two external components determine the minimum frequency; in the duty factor regulation mode they determine the working frequency (see Figure 2). The output pulse repetition frequency varies less than 1% with the supply voltage over the supply voltage range. The feedback input compares the input current with an internal current source whose current level is set by the external resistor R4. In the frequency regulation mode, the higher the voltage on the FB input, the longer the external capacitor C5 is charged, and the lower the frequency will be. In the duty factor regulation mode external capacitor C5 is charged and discharged at a constant rate, the voltage on the FB input now determines the moment that the output will become LOW. The higher the voltage on the FB input, the longer the output remains HIGH, and the higher the duty factor of the SMPS. In the frequency regulation mode the output is LOW from the start of the cycle until the voltage on the capacitor reaches 2V. The capacitor is further charged until its voltage reaches the voltage on either the feedback input FB or the limit setting input LIM, provided it has exceeded 2.2V. As soon as the capacitor voltage reaches 5.9V the capacitor is discharged rapidly to 1.3V and a new cycle is initiated (see Figures 3 and 4). For voltages on the FB and LIM inputs lower than 2.2V, the capacitor is charged until this voltage is reached; this sets an internal maximum frequency limit. In the duty factor regulation mode the capacitor is charged from 1.3V to 5.9V and discharged again at a constant rate. The output 14-15 Feedback Input FB (Pin 3) Limit Setting Input LIM (Pin 2) In the frequency regulation mode this input sets the minimum frequency, in the duty factor regulation mode it sets the maximum duty factor of the SMPS. The limit is set by an external resistor R2 connected from the LIM input to ground (Pin 7) and by an internal current source, whose current level is determined by external resistor R4. A slow-start procedure is obtained by connecting a capacitor between the LIM input and ground. In the frequency regulation mode the frequency slowly decreases from fMAX to the working frequency. In the duty factor regulation mode the duty factor slowly increases from zero to the working duty factor. II Signetics Linear Products Product Specification Control Circuit for Switched-Mode Power Supply Overcurrent Protection Input eM (Pin 1) Output Q (Pin 8) The output is an open-collector NPN transistor, only capable of sinking current. It requires an external resistor to drive an NPN transistor in the SMPS (see Agures 7 and 8). A voltage on the eM input exceeding O.37V causes an immediate termination of the output pulse. In the duty factor regulation mode the circuit starts again with the slow-start procedure. 100 80 60 40 :.... i ~ u, ~ 3 4 ,}~ ~ ~ ...... ~ 10 8 8 1 ~ i'...""",( 1I 20 ~ ...... ~ "'~ 6 8 10 20 R4(kll) 40 80 80100 01'077215 Figure 2.

Smaller than conventional components, SMDs are placed onto the surface of the substrate, not through it like leaded components. And from this, the fundamental difference between SMD assembly and conventional throughhole component assembly arises; SMD component positioning is relative, not absolute. When a through-hole (leaded) component is inserted into a PCB, either the leads go through the holes, or they don't. An SMD, however, is placed onto the substrate surface, its position only relative to the solderlands, and placement accuracy is therefore influenced by variations in the substrate track pattern, component size, and placement machine accuracy. Other factors influence the layout of SMD substrates. For example, will the board be a mixed-print (a combination of through-hole components and SMDs) or an all-SMD design? Will SMDs be on one side of the substrate or both? And there are process considerations, such as: what type of machine will place the components and how will they be soldered? Using our expertise in the world of SMD technology, this section draws upon applied research in the area of substrate design and manufacture, and presents the basic guidelines to assist the designer in making the transition from conventional through-hole PCB assembly to SMD substrate manufacture. Designing With SMD SMD technology is penetrating rapidly into all areas of modern electronic equipment manufacture - in professional, industrial, and consumer applications. Boards are made with conventional print-and-etch PCBs, multilayer boards with thick film ceramic substrates, and with a host of new materials specially developed for SMD assembly. However, before substrate layout can be attempted, footprints for all components must be defined. Such a footprint will include the combination of patterns for the copper solderlands, the solder resist, and, possibly, the solder paste. So the design of a substrate breaks down into two distinct areas: the SMD footprint definition, and the layout and track routing for SMDs on the substrate. February 1987 Each of these areas is treated individually; first, the general aspects of SMD technology, including substrate configurations, placement machines, and soldering techniques, are discussed. 4 I ~, r:=:} ,c:::1, I Substrate Configurations SMD substrate assembly configurations are classified as: Type I - Total surface mount (all-SMD); substrates with no through-hole components at all. SMDs of all types (SM integrated circuits, discrete semiconductors, and passive devices) can be mounted either on one side, or both sides, of the substrate. See Figure 1a. a. Type 1- Total Surface-Mount (all-SMD) Substrates Type IIA - Double-sided mixed-print; substrates with both through-hole components and SMDs of all types on the top, and smaller SMDs (transistors and passives) on the bottom. See Figure 1b. Type liB - Underside attachment mixedprint; the top of the substrate is dedicated exclusively to through-hole components, with smaller SMDs (transistor and passives) on the bottom. See Figure 1c. Although the all-SMD substrate will ultimately be the cheapest and smallest variation as there are no through-hole components, it's the mixed-print substrate that many manufacturers will be looking to in the immediate future, for this technique enjoys most of the advantages of SMD assembly and overcomes the problem of non-availability of some components in surface-mounted form. The underside attachment variation of the mixed-print (type liB - which can be thought of as a conventional through-hole assembly with SMDs on the solder side) has the added advantages of only requiring a single-sided, print-and-etch PCB and of using the established wave soldering technique. The all-SMD and mixed-print assembly with SMDs on both sides require reflow or combination wave! reflow soldering, and, in most cases, a double-sided or multilayer substrate. The relatively small size of most SMD assemblies compared with equivalent through-hole designs means that circuits can often be repeated several times on a single substrate. This multiple-circuit substrate technique (shown in Figure 2) further increases production efficiency. 15-3 b. Type IIA - Mixed-Print (Double-Sided) Substrate DF07090S c.

Multiple-Circuit Substrate Mixed Prints The possibility of using a partitioned design should be investigated when considering the mixed-print substrate option. For this, part of the circuit would be an all-SMD substrate, and the remainder a conventional through-hole • Signetics Linear Products Substrate Design Guidelines for Surface-Mounted Devices PCB or mixed-print substrate. This allows the circuit to be broken down into, for example, high and low power sections, or high and low frequency sections. Automated SMD Placement Machines The selection of automated SMO placement machines for manufacturing requirements is an issue reaching far beyond the scope of this section. However, as a guide, the four main placement techniques are outlined. They are: In-Line Placement - a system with a series of dedicated pick-and-place units, each placing a single SMO in a preset position on the substrate. Generally used for small circuits with few components. See Figure 3a. a. In-line Placement b. Sequential Placement Sequential Placement - a single pick-andplace unit sequentially places SMOs onto the substrate. The substrate is positioned below the pick-and-place unit using a computercontrolled X-Y moving table (a "software programmable" machine). See Figure 3b. Simultaneous Placement - places all SMOs in a single operation. A placement module (or station), with a number of pickand-place units, takes an array of SMOs from the packaging medium and simultaneously places them on the substrate. The pick and place units are guided to their substrate location by a program plate (a "hardware programmable" machine), or by softwarecontrolled X-V movement of substrate and/or pick-and-place units. See Figure 3c. Sequential/Simultaneous Placement - a complete array of SMOs is transferred in a single operation, but the pick-and-place units within each placement module can place all devices simultaneously, or individually (sequentially). Posijioning of the SMOs is software-controlled by moving the substrate on an X-Y moving table, by X-Y movement of the pick-and-place units, or by a combination of both. See Figure 3d. All four techniques, although differing in detail, use the same two basic steps: picking the SMO from the packaging medium (tape, magazine, or hopper) and placing it on the substrate. In all cases, the exact location of each SMO must be programmed into the automated placement machine. Soldering Techniques The SMO-populated substrate is soldered by conventional wave soldering, reflow soldering, or a combination of both wave and reflow soldering. These techniques are covered at length in another publication entitled SMD Soldering Techniques, but, briefly, they can be described as follows: Wave Soldering - the conventional method of soldering through-hole component assemFebruary 1987 c. Simultaneous Placement d_ Sequential/Simultaneous Placement Figure 3 blies where the substrate passes over a wave (or more often, two waves) of molten solder. This technique is favored for mixed-print assemblies with through-hole components on the top of the substrate, and SMOs on the bottom. Reflow Soldering - a technique originally developed for thick-film hybrid circuits using a solder paste or cream (a suspension of fine solder parlicles in a sticky resin-flux base) applied to the substrate which, after component placement, is heated and causes the solder to melt and coalesce. This method is predominantly used for Type I (all-SMO) assemblies. Combination Wave/Reflow Soldering - a sequential process using both the foregoing techniques to overcome the problems of soldering a double-sided mixed-print substrate with SMOs and through-hole components on the top, and SMOs only on the bottom. (Type liB). Footprint Definition An SMO footprint, as shown in Figure 4, consists of: • A pattern for the (copper) solderlands • A pattern for the solder resist 15-4 • If applicable, a pattern for the solder cream. The design for the footprint can be represented as a set of nominal coordinates. and dimensions. In practice, the actual coordinates of each pattern will be distributed around these nominal values due to positioning and proceSSing tolerances. Therefore, the coordinates are stochastic; the actual values form a probability distribution, with a mean value (the nominal value) and a standard deviation. The coordinates of the SMO are also stochastic. This is due to the tolerances of the actual component dimensions and the positional errors of the automated placement machine. The relative positions of solderland, solder resist pattern, and SMO, are not arbitrary. A number of requirements may be formulated concerning clearances and overlaps. These include: • Limiting factors in the production of the patterns (for example, the spacing between solderlands or tracks has a minimum value) Signetics Linear Products Substrate Design Guidelines for Surface-Mounted Devices • Maximizes the number of tracks between adjacent solderlands. The final SMD footprint design also depends on the soldering process to be used. The requirements for a wave-soldered substrate differ from those for a reflow-soldered substrate, so each is discussed individually. Footprints for Wave Soldering Figure 4. Component Lead, Solder Land, Solder Resist, and Solder Cream 11 Footprint" • Requirements concerning the soldering process (for example, the solderlands must be free of solder resist) • Requirements concerning the quality of the solder joint (for example, the solderland must protrude from the SMD metallization to allow an appropriate solder meniscus) Mathematical elaboration of these require· ments and substitution of values for all toler· ances and other parameters lead to a set of inequalities that have to be solved simulta· neously. To do this manually using worst· case design is not considered realistic. A better approach is to use a statistical analy· sis; although this requires a complex comput· er program, it can be done. Such an approach may deliver more than one solution, and, if this is so, then the optimal solution must be determined. Optimization is achieved by setting the following objectivefind the solution that: • Minimizes the area occupied by the footprint c:=:::=C> To determine the footprint of an SMD for a wave-soldered substrate, consider four main interactive factors: • The component dimensions plus tolerances - determined by the component manufacturer • The substrate metallization - positional tolerance of the solderland with respect to a reference point on the substrate o The solder resist - positional tolerance of the solder resist pattern with respect to the same reference point o The placement tolerance - the ability of an automated placement machine to accurately position the SMD on the substrate. The coordinates of patterns and SMDs have to meet a number of requirements. Some of these have a general validity (the minimum overlap of SMD metallization and solderland) and available space for solder meniscus. Others are specifically required to allow successful wave soldering. One has to take into account factors like the "shadow effect" (missing of joints due to high component bodies), the risk of solder bridging, and the available space for a dot of adhesive. The "Shadow Effect" In wave soldering, the way in which the substrate addresses the wave is important. Unlike wave soldering of conventional printed boards where there are no component bodies to restrict the wave's freedom to traverse across the whole surface, wave soldering of SMD substrates is inhibited by the presence of SMDs on the solder-side of the board. The solder is forced around and over the SMDs as shown in Figure 5a, and the surface tension EXTENDED of the molten solder prevents its reaching the far end of the component, resulting in a dryjoint downstream of the solder flow. This is known as the "shadow effect." The shadow effect becomes critical with high component bodies. However, wetting of the solderlands during wave soldering can be improved by enlarging each land as shown in Figure 5b. The extended substrate metallization makes contact with the solder and allows it to flow back and around the component metallization to form the joint. The use of the dual-wave soldering technique also partially alleviates this problem because the first, turbulent wave has sufficient upward pressure to force solder onto the component metallization, and the second, smooth wave "washes" the substrate to form good fillets of solder. Similarly, oil on the surface of the solder wave lowers the surface tension, (which lessens the shadow effect), but this technique introduces problems of contaminants in the solder when the oil decomposes. Footprint Orientation The orientation of SO (small outline) and VSO (very small outline) ICs is critical on wavesoldered substrates for the prevention of solder bridge formation. Optimum solder penetration is achieved when the central axis of the IC is parallel to the flow of solder as shown in Figure 6a. The SO package may also be transversely oriented, as shown in Figure 6b, but this is totally unacceptable for the VSO package. Solder Thieves Even with parallel mounted SO and VSO packages, solder bridges have a tendency to form on the leads downstream of the solder flow. The use of solder thieves (small squares of substrate metallization), shown in Figure 7 for a 40-pin VSO, further reduces the likelihood of solder-bridge formation. .... ~ SUBSTRATE ~~~~W ~.;... ~ SUBSTRATE ;:Z~7Z~ DIRECT: ~ a.

Misaligned Placement of SO Package Increases the Possibility of Solder Bridging Placement Inaccuracy Another major cause of solder bridges on SO ICs and plastic leaded chip carriers (PLCCs) is a slight misalignment as shown in Figure 8. The close spacing of the leads on these devices means that any inaccuracy in place· ment drastically reduces the space between February 1987 For wave soldering, an adhesive to affix components to the substrate is required. This is necessary to hold the SMDs in place between the placement operation and the soldering process (this technique is covered at length in another publication entitled Adhe· sive Application and Curing). The amount of adhesive applied is critical for two reasons: first, the adhesive dot must be high enough to reach the SMD, and, second, there mustn't be too much adhesive which could foul the solderland and prevent the formation of a solder jOint. The three parame· ters governing the height of the adhesive dot are shown in Figure 9. Although this diagram illustrates that the minimum requirement is C > A + B, in practice, C > 2(A + B) is more realistic for the formation of a good strong bond. Taking these parameters in turn, the sub· strate metallization height (A) can range from about 35!lm for a normal print·and·etch PCB to 135!lm for a plated through·hole board. And the component metallization height (B) (on 1206·size passive devices, for example) may differ by several tens of microns. There· fore, A + B can vary considerably, but it is desirable to keep the dot height (C) constant for anyone substrate. The solution to this apparent problem is to route a track under the device as shown in Figure 10. This will eliminate the substrate metallization height (A) from the adhesive dot·height criteria. Quite often, the high com· ponent density of SMD substrates necessitates the routing of tracks between solder· lands, and, where it does not, a short dummy track should be introduced. 15-6 >A+ B SUBSTRATE NOTES: A "" Substrate metallization height 8 ...

Adhesive Dot Height Criteria Footprints for Reflow Soldering To determine the footprint of an SMD for a reflow·soldered substrate, there are now five interactive factors to consider: the four that affect the wave solder footprints (although the solder resist may be omitted), plus an additional factor relating to the solder cream application (the positional tolerance of the screen'printed solder cream with respect to the solderlands). Solder Cream Application In reflow soldering, the solder cream (or paste) is applied by pressure syringe dispens· ing or by screen printing. For industrial purposes, screen printing is the favored te<;:h· nique because it is much faster than dispens· ing. Screen Printing A stainless steel mesh coated with emulsion (except for the solderland pattern where cream is required) is placed over the sub· strate. A squeegee passes across the screen and forces solder cream through the uncoated areas of the mesh and onto the solderland. As a result, dots of solder cream of a given height and density (in mg/mm2) are produced. There is an optimum amount of solder cream for each joint. For example, the solder cream requirements for the C1206 SM capacitor are around 1.5mg per end; the SO IC requires between 0.5 and 0.75mg per lead. The solder cream density, combined with the required amount of solder, makes a demand upon the area of the solderland (in mm 2). The footprint dimensions for the solder cream pattern are typically identical to those for the solderlands.

Through-Track or Dummy Track to Modify Dot Height Criteria /------ DO Floating One phenomenon sometimes observed on reflow·soldered substrates is that known as "floating" (or "swimming"). This occurs when the solder paste reflows, and the force exerted by the surface tension of the now molten solder "pulls" the SMD to the center of the solderland. When the solder reflows at both ends simultaneously, the swimming phenomenon results in the SMD self·centering on the footprint as the forces of surface tension fight for equilibri· um. Although this effect can remove minor positional errors, it's not a dependable fea· ture and cannot be relied upon. Components must always be positioned as accurately as possible. Footprint Dimensions The following diagrams (Fig. 11 to 19) show footprint dimensions for SO ICs, the VSO-40 package, PLCC packages, and the range of surface-mounted transistors, diodes, resistors, and capacitors. All dimensions given are based on the criteria discussed in these guidelines. --lorDD-1l I I A B DM~ -i-..{.INCHES INCHES PACKAGE OUTLINE 50·8, 14, 16 SOL-1B, 20, 24, 28 B A C PACKAGE OUTLINE D .155 .275 .060 .024 .050 .310 .450 .070 .024 .050 VSO-40 VSO-56 so so SMALL LARGE A B C D 4.0 7.B 7.0 1.5 1.B .6 .6 11.4 PACKAGE OUTLINE 1.27 1.27 SOL-B B C D 13.2 2.1 .6 C D A 9.0 C D E .536 .108 .676 .108 .02 .02 .030 .030 VSO-40 VSO·56 A B C D E B.O 11.5 13.4 16.9 2.7 2.7 .5 .5 .762 .75 Figure 12.

The substrate layout shown in Figure 20 will result in significantly betler solder joints than a substrate with SMD resistors and capacitors positioned parallel to the solder flow. bd. ~ bdbd Component Pitch The minimum component pitch is governed by the maximum width of the component and the minimum distance between adjacent components. When defining the maximum component width, the rotational accuracy of the placement machine must also be considered. Figure 21 shows how the effective width of the SMD is increased when the component is rotated with respect to the footprint by angle q,0. (For clarity, the rotation is exaggerated in the illustration.) SOLDER FLOW U The minimum permissible distance between adjacent SMDs is a figure based upon the gap required to avoid solder-bridging during the wave soldering process. Figure 22 shows how this distance and the maximum component width are combined to derive the basic expression for calculating the minimum pitch (FMIN)· As a guide, the recommended minimum pitches for various combinations of two sizes of SMDs, the R/C1206 and COB05 (R or C designating resistor or capacitor respectively; the number referring to the component size), are given in Table 1. These figures are statistically derived under certain assumed boundary conditions as follows: • Positioning error (f>.p)± 0.3mm; (± 0.012") • Pattern accuracy (f>.q)± 0.3mm; (± 0.012") Ld bd bd bd ~ SUBSTRATE DIRECTION ~ Figure 20. Recommended Component Orientation for Wave-Soldered Substrates • Rotational accuracy (q,)± 3° • Component metallization/solderland overlap (MMIN) 0.1 mm (0.004") (Note this figure is only valid for wave soldering) • The figure for the minimum permissible gap between adjacent components (GMIN) is taken to be 0.5mm (0.020"). As these calculations are not based on worstcase conditions, but on a statistical analysis of all boundary conditions, there is a certain flexibility in the given data. For example, it is possible to position RI C1206 SMDs on a 2.5mm pitch, but the probability of component placements occurring with GMIN smaller than 0.5mm will increase; hence, the likelihood of solder-bridging also increases. Each application must be assessed on individual merit with regard to acceptable levels of rework, and so on.

Criteria for Determining the Minimum Pitch of SMOs Combination Placement Machine Restrictions There are two ways of looking at the distribu· tion of SMOs on the substrate: uniform SMO placement and non·uniform SMO placement. With nonuniform placement, center·to·center dimensions of SMOs are not exact multiples of a predetermined dimension as shown in Figure 24a, so the location of each is difficult to program into the machine.

For example, on a hardware·programmable simultaneous placement machine (see Figure 3c), each pick·and·place unit within the place· ment module can only place a component on the substrate in a restricted lane (owing to Figure 23.

Substrate "Lanes" From Use of a Simultaneous Placement Machine Placement of the 10 components in the lane on the right of the substrate shown will require a machine with 10 placement modules (or ten passes beneath a single placement module), an inefficient process considering that there are no more than three SMDs in any other lane. February 1987 Figure 26a shows the recommended approach for positioning test-points in tracks close to components, and Figure 26b shows an acceptable (though not recommended) alternative where the solderland is extended to accommodate the test pin. This latter method avoids sacrificing too much board space, thus maintaining a high-density layout, but can introduce the problem of components moving ("floating") when reflow-soldered. The approach shown in Figure 26c is totally unacceptable since the pressure applied by the test pin can make an open-circuit soldered joint appear to be good, and, more importantly, the test pin can damage the metallization on the component, particularly with small SMDs. a. RECOMMENDED Test Point Location Close to an SMD b. Acceptable Test Point Location CAD Systems for SMD Substrate Layout At present, about half of all PCBs are laid out using computer-aided design (CAD) techniques, and this proportion is expected to rise to over 90% by 1988. Of the many current CAD systems available for designing PCB layouts for conventional through-hole components and ICs in DIL packages, few are SMDcompatible, and systems dedicated exclusively to SMD substrate layout are still comparatively rare. There are two main reasons for this: some CAD suppliers are waiting for SMD technology to fully mature before updating their systems to cater to SMD-Ioaded substrates, and others are holding back until standard package outlines are fully defined. However, updating CAD systems used for through-hole printed boards is not simply a case of substituting SMD footprints for can· ventional component footprints, since SMD· populated substrates impose far tougher restraints on PCB layout and require a total rethink of the layout programs. For example, systems must deal with higher component densities, finer track widths, devices on both sides of the substrate (possibly occupying corresponding positions on opposite sides), and even SMDs under conventional DILs on the same side of the substrate. The amount of reworking that a program requires depends on whether it's an interactive (manual) system, or one with fully automatic routing and placement capabilities. For 15-11 c. UNACCEPTABLE Test Point Location Figure 26 interactive systems, where the user positions the components and routes the tracks manually on-screen, program modifications will be minimal. Automatic systems, however, must contend with the stricter design rules for SMD substrate layout. For example, many autorouting programs assume that every solderland is a plated through-hole and, therefore, can be used as a via hole. This is not applicable for SMD-populated substrates. CAD programs base the substrate layout on a regular grid. This method, analogous to drawing the layout on graph paper, must have the grid lines on a pitch that is no larger than the smallest component or feature (track width, pitch, and so on). For conventional DIL boards, this is typically 0.635mm (0.025"), but with the much smaller SMDs, a grid spacing of 0.0254mm (0.001") is required. Consequently, for the same area of substrate, a CAD system based on this finer grid requires • Signetics Linear Products Substrate Design Guidelines for Surface-Mounted Devices a resolution more than 600 times greater than that required for conventional-layout CAD systems. To handle this, extra memory capacity can be added, or the allowable substrate area can be limited. In fact, the small size of SMDs, and the high-density layouts possible, generally result in a smaller substrate. However, highdensity layout gives rise to additional complications not directly related to the SMD substrate design guidelines. Most CAD systems, for instance, cannot always completely route all interconnects, and some traces have to be routed manually. This can be particularly difficult with the fewer via holes and smaller component spacing of SMD boards. Ideally, the CAD program should have a "tear-up and start again" algorithm that allows it to restart autorouting if a previous February 1987 attempt reaches a position where no further traces can be routed before an acceptable percentage of interconnects (and this percentage must first be determined) have been made. This minimizes the manual reworking required. CAE/CAD/CAM Interaction Computer-aided production of printed boards has evolved from what was initially only a computer-aided manufacturing process (CAM - digitizing a manually-generated layout and using a photoplotter to produce the artwork) to fully-interactive computer-aided engineering, design, and manufacture using a common database. Figure 27 illustrates how this multi-dimensional interaction is particularly well-suited to SMD-populated substrate manufacture in its highly-automated environment of pick-and-place assembly machines and test equipment. 15-12 Using a fully-integrated system, linked by local area network to a central database, will make it possible to use the initial computeraided engineering (CAE - schematic design, logic verification, and fault simulation) in the generation of the final test patterns at the end of the development process. These test patterns can then be used with the automatic test equipment (ATE) for functional testing of the finished substrates. Such a system is particularly useful for testing SMD-populated substrates, as their high component density and fewer via-holes make incircuit testing ("bed of nails" approach) difficult. Consequently, manufacturers are turning to functional testing as an alternative. These aspects are covered in another publication entitled Functional Testing and Repair.

The Software-Hardware Interaction for the Computer-Aided Engineering, Design, and Manufacture of SMD Substrates II February 1987 15-13 Signetics Test and Repair Linear Products AN INTRODUCTION The key questions that must be asked of any electronic circuit are "does it work, and will it continue to do so over a specified period of time?" Until zero-defect soldering is achieved, and all components are guaranteed serviceable by the vendors, manufacturers can only answer these questions by carrying out some form of test on the finished product. The types of tests, and the depth to which they are carried out, are determined by the complexity of the circuit and the customer's requirements. The amount of rework to be performed on the circuit will depend on the results of these tests and the degree of reliability demanded. The criteria are true of all electronic assemblies, and the test engineer must formulate test schedules accordingly. Substrates loaded with surface mounted devices (SMDs), however, pose additional problems to the test engineer. The devices are much smaller, and substrate population density is greater, leading to difficulty in accessing all circuit nodes and test points. Also SMD substrate layout designs often have fewer via and component lead holes, so test points may not all be on one side of the substrate and double-sided test fixtures become necessary. To achieve the high throughput rates made possible by using highly automated SMD placement machines and volume soldering techniques, automatic testing becomes a necessity. Visual inspection of the finished substrate by trained inspectors can normally detect about 90% of defects. With the correct combination of automatic test equipment, the remainder can be eliminated. In this publication, we hope to provide the manufacturer with information to enable him to evaluate and select the best combination of test equipment and the most effective test methods for his product. BARE·BOARD TESTING Although SMD substrates will undoubtedly be smaller than conventional through-hole substrates and have less space between conductors, the principles of bare-board testing remain the same. Many of the testers already in use can, with little or no modification, be used for SMD substrates. As this is already a well-established and well-documented practice, it will not be discussed further in this publication, but it is recommended that bareFebruary 1987 board testing always be used as the first step in assuring board integrity. POST·ASSEMBLY TESTING Testing densely populated substrates is no easy task, as the components may occupy both sides of the board and cover many of the circuit nodes (see Figure 1 for the three main types of SMD-populated substrates). Unlike conventional substrates, on which all test points are usually accessible from the bottom, SMD assemblies must be designed from the start with the siting of test points in mind. Probing SMD substrates is particularly difficult owing to the very close spacing of components and conductors. Mixed print or all-SMD assemblies with components on both sides further aggravate the testing problems, as not all test points are present on the same side of the board. Although two-sided test fixtures are feasible, they are expensive and require considerable time to build. The application of a test probe to the top of an SMD termination could damage it, and probe pressure on a poor or open solder joint can force contact and thus allow a defective joint to be assessed as good. Figure 2a illustrates the recommended siting of test points close to SMD terminations, and Figure 2b shows an alternative, though not recommended, option. Here, problems could arise from reflow soldering (solder migrating from the joint) unless the test point area is separated from the solder land area with a stripe of solder resist. Excessive mechanical pressure caused by too many probes concentrated in a small area may also result in substrate damage. It is good practice for substrates to have test points on a regular grid so that conventional, rather than custom, testers may be used. If the substrate has tall components or heatsinks, the test points must be located far enough away to allow the probes to make good contact. All test points should be solder coated to provide good electrical contact. Via holes may also be used as test points, but the holes must be filled with solder to prevent the probe from sticking.

Because of the rapid fall in price of computers, memories, and peripherals, today's low-cost ATE equals the performance of the high-cost equipment of just two or three years ago. For factory automation, manufacturers must consider many factors, such as production volume, product complexity, and availability of skilled personnel. One question is whether the ATE system can be used not only for production testing but also for service and repair to reduce the high cost of keeping a substrate inventory in the field. Another is whether assembly and process-induced faults represent a significant percentage of production defects, rather than out-of-tolerance components. These questions need to be answered before deciding on the type of ATE system required. Signetics Linear Products Test and Repair of an in-circuit tester alone, improves the throughput rate.

Because they do not power the assembly, they cannot detect digital logic faults, unlike an in-circuit tester or functional tester. DFOl-430S c_ Unacceptable Location of Test Points Close to SMOs Figure 2 Several systems are currently available to the manufacturer, including short-circuit testers, in-circuit testers, in-circuit analyzers, and functional testers. Figure 3 shows a bar-chart giving a comparison of percent fault detection and programming time for various ATE systems. A loaded-board, short-circuit tester takes from two to six hours to program and its effective fault coverage is between 35% and 65%. It has the advantage of being operationally fast and comparatively inexpensive. On the negative side, however, it is limited to the detection of short-circuits and may require a double-sided, bed-of-nails test fixture (see Figure 4), which for SMD substrates may be expensive and take time to produce. Careful February 1987 Functional testers, on the other hand, check the assembly's performance and simply make a go or no-go decision. Either the assembly performs its required function or it does not. They are much more expensive, but their fault coverage is between 80% and 98%. Their major disadvantages, apart from cost, are that they cannot locate defective components, and programming for a highcapacity system can take as long as nine months_ Combining a short-circuit tester with a functional tester produces even more dramatic results. If most defects are manufacturingproduced shorts, the use of a short-circuit tester to relieve the functional tester of this task can increase throughput five-fold while maintaining a fault coverage of up to 98%. If manufacturing faults and analog component defects are responsible for the majority of failures, a relatively low-cost, in-circuit analyzer can be used in tandem with an incircuit tester or functional tester to reduce testing costs and improve throughput. The incircuit analyzer is three times faster than an in-circuit tester in detecting manufacturinginduced faults, offers test and diagnostics usually within 10 seconds each, and is relatively simple to program. But because it is unpowered, an in-circuit analyzer cannot test digital logic faults; either an in-circuit tester or functional tester following the in-circuit analyzer must be used to locate this type of defect. POLLUTED POWER SUPPLIES Today's electronic components and the equipment used to test them are susceptible to electrical noise. Erroneous measurements on pass-or-fail tests could lower test throughput or, even more seriously, allow defective products to pass inspection. Semiconductor chips under test can also be damaged or destroyed as high-energy pulses or line-voltage surges stress the fine-line geometrics separating individual cells. Noise pulses can be either in the normal (lineto-line) mode or common (line-to-ground) mode. Common-mode electrical noise poses a special threat to modern electronic circuitry since the safety ground line to which common-mode noise is referenced is often used as the system's logic reference point. Since parasitic capacitance exists between safety ground and the reference point, at high frequencies these pOints are essentially tied together, allowing noise to directly enter the system's logic. ATE Systems An analysis of defects on a finished substrate will determine which combination of ATE will best meet the test requirements with regard to fault coverage and throughput rate. If most defects are short-circuits, a loadedboard short-circuit tester, in tandem with an in-circuit tester, will pre-screen the substrate for short-circuits twice as fast as the in-circuit tester. This allows more time for the in-circuit tester to handle the more complex test requirements_ This combination of ATE, instead 15-15 MANUAL REPAIR The repair of SMD-populated substrates will entail either the resoldering of individual joints and the removal of shorts or the replacement of defective components. The reworking of defective joints will invariably involve the use of a manual soldering iron. Bits are commercially available in a variety of shapes, including special hollow bits used for desoldering and for the removal of solder bridges. The criteria for the inspec- • Signetics Linear Products Test and Repair Figure 4. Double-Sided, Bed-of-Nails Test Fixture Using air pressure, the center pin of the collet then pushes the PLCC into contact with the substrate where it is maintained with the correct amount of force. Heat is then applied through the walls of the collet to rellow the solder paste. The center pin maintains pressure on the PLCC until the solder has solidified, then the center pin is raised and the replacement is complete. VACUUM PIPETTE I HEAD Mor SUBSTRATE Figure 5. Heated Collet for the Removal and Replacement of Multi-Leaded SMDs (a PLCC is Shown Here) tion of reworked soldered joints are the same as those for machine soldering. Special care must be taken when reworking or replacing electrostatic sensitive devices. Soldering irons should be well grounded via a safety resistor of minimum 100k.l1. The ground connection to the soldering iron should be welded rather than clamped. This is because oxidation occurs beneath the clamp, thus isolating the ground connection. Voltage spikes caused by the switching of the iron can be avoided by using either continuously-powered irons, or irons that switch only at zero voltage on the AC sine curve. To remove defective leadless SMDs, a variety of soldering iron bits are available that will apply the correct amount of heat to both ends of the component simultaneously and allow it to be removed from the substrate. If the substrate has been wave soldered, an adhesive will have been used, and the bond can February 1987 be broken by twisting the bit. Any adhesive residue must then be removed. The same tool is then used to place and solder the new component, using either solder cream or resin-cored solder. When a multi-leaded component, such as a plastic leaded chip carrier (PLCC), has to be removed, a heated collet can be used (see Figure 5). The collet is positioned over the PLCC, heat is applied to the leads and solder lands automatically until the solder rellows. The collet, complete with the PLCC, is then raised by vacuum. Solder cream is then reapplied to the solder lands by hand. No adhesive is required in this operation. The collet is positioned over the replacement PLCC, which is held in place by the slight spring pressure of the PLCC leads against the walls of the collet. The collet, complete with PLCC, is then raised pneumatically and positioned over the solder lands. 15-16 Another method, well-suited to densely populated SMD substrates, uses a stream of heated air, directed onto the SMD terminations. Once the solder has been rellowed, the component can be removed with the aid of tweezers. While the hot air is being directed onto the component, cooler air is played onto the bottom of the substrate to protect it from heat damage. During removal, the component should be twisted sideways slightly in order to break the surface tension of the solder and any adhesive bond between the component and the substrate. This prevents damage to the substrate when the component is lifted. . To fit a new component, the solder lands are first retinned and lIuxed, the new component accurately placed, and the solder rellowed with hot air. Substituting superheated argon, nitrogen, or a mixture of nitrogen and hydrogen for the hot air stream removes any risk of contaminating or oxidizing the solder. Focused infrared light has also been used successfully to rellow the solder on densely populated substrates. In general, the equipment and procedures used for the replacement of PLCCs can be used for lead less ceramic chip carriers (LCCCs) and small-outline packages (SO ICs). SO ICs are somewhat easier to replace, as the leads are more accessible and only on two sides of the component. Signetics Fluxing and Cleaning Linear Products INTRODUCTION The adoption of mass soldering techniques by the electronics industry was prompted not only by economics, and a requirement for high throughput levels, but also by the need for a consistent standard of quality and reliability in the finished product unattainable by using manual methods. With surface-mounted device (SMD) assembly, this need is even greater. The quality of the end-product depends on the measures taken during the design and manufacturing stages. The foundations of a high-quality electronic circuit are laid with good design, and with correct choice of components and substrate configuration. It is, however, at the manufacturing stage where the greatest number of variables, both with respect to materials and techniques, have to be optimized to produce high-quality soldering, a prerequisite for reliability. Of the two most commonly-used soldering techniques, wave and reflow, wave soldering is by far the most widely used and understood. Many factors influence the outcome of the soldering operation, some relating to the soldering process itself, and others to the condition of components and substrate to which they are to be attached. These must be collectively assessed to ensure high-quality soldering. One of the most important, most neglected, and least understood of these processes is the choice and application of flux. This section outlines the fluxing options available, and discusses the various cleaning techniques that may be required, for SMD substrate assembly. FLUXES Populating a substrate involves the soldering of a variety of terminations simultaneously. In one operation, a mixture of tinned copper, tin/lead-or gold-plated nickel-iron, palladiumsilver, tin/lead-plated nickel-barrier, and even materials like Kovar, each possessing varying degrees of solderability, must be attached to a common substrate using a single solder alloy. It is for this reason that the choice of the flux is so important. The correct flux will remove surface oxides, prevent reoxidization, help to transfer heat from source to joint area, and leave non-corrosive, or easily removable corrosive residues on the substrate. It will also February 1987 improve wettability of the solder joint surfaces. The wettability of a metal surface is its ability to promote the formation of an alloy at its interface with the solder to ensure a strong, low-resistance joint. However, the use of flux does not eliminate the need for adequate surface preparation. This is very important in the soldering of SMD substrates, where any temptation to use a highly-active flux in order to promote rapid wetting of ill-prepared surfaces should be avoided because it can cause serious problems later when the corrosive flux residues have to be removed. Consequently, optimum solderability is an essential factor for SMD substrate assembly. Flux is applied before the wave soldering process, and during the reflow soldering process (where flux and solder are combined in a solder cream). By coating both bare metal and solder, flux retards atmospheric oxidization which would otherwise be intensified at soldering temperature. In the areas where the oxide film has been removed, a direct metalto-metal contact is established with one lowenergy interface. It is from this point of contact that the solder will flow. Types of Flux There are two main characteristics of flux. The first is efficacy-its ability to promote wetting of surfaces by solder within a specified time. Closely related to this is the activity of the flux, that is, its ability to chemically clean the surfaces. ed in varying quantities to increase it. These take the form of either organic acids, or organic salts that are chemically active at soldering temperatures. It is therefore convenient to classify the colophony-based fluxes by their activator content. Non-Activated Rosin (R) Flux These fluxes are formed from pure colophony in a suitable solvent, usually isopropanol or ethyl alcohol. Efficacy is low and cleaning action is weak. Their uses in electronic soldering are limited to easily-wettable materials with a high level of solderability. They are used mainly on circuits where no risk of corrosion can be tolerated, even after prolonged use (implanted cardiac pacemakers, for example). Their flux residues are noncorrosive and can remain on the substrate, where they will provide good insulation. Rosin, Mildly-Activated (RMA) Flux These fluxes are also composed of colophony in a solvent, but with the addition of activators, either in the form of di-basic organic acids (such as succinc acid), or organic salts (such as dimethyl ammonium chloride or diethylammonium chloride). It is customary to express the amount of added activator as mass percent of the chlorine ion on the colophony content, as the activator-to-colophony ratio determines the activity, and, hence, the corrosivity. In the case of RMA activated with organic salts, this is only some tenths of one percent. Organic Soluble Fluxes When organic acids are used, a higher percentage of activator must be added to produce the same efficacy as organic salts, so frequently both salts and acids are added. The cleaning action of RMA fluxes is stronger than that of the R type, although the corrosivity of the residues is usually acceptable. These residues may be left on the substrate as they form a useful insulating layer on the metal surfaces. This layer can, however, impede the penetration of test probes at a later stage. Most of the fluxes soluble in organic liquids are based on colophony or rosin (a natural product obtained from pine sap that has been distilled to remove the turpentine content). Solid colophony is difficult to apply to a substrate during machine soldering, so it is dissolved in a thinning agent, usually an alcohol. It has a very low efficacy, and hence limited cleaning power, so activators are add- The RA fluxes are similar to the RMA fluxes, but contain a higher proportion of activators. They are used mainly when component or substrate solderability is poor and corrosionrisk requirements are less stringent. However, as good solderability is considered essential for SMD assembly, highly-activated rosin fluxes should not be necessary. The removal of The second is the corrosivity of the flux, or rather the corrosivity of its residues remaining on the substrate after soldering. This is again linked to the activity; the more active the flux, the more corrosive are its residues. Although there are many different fluxes available, and many more being developed, they fall into two basic categories; those with residues soluble in organic liquids, and those with residues soluble in water. 15-17 Rosin, Activated (RA) Flux • Signetics Linear Products Fluxing and Cleaning flux residues is optional and usually dependent upon the working environment of the finished product and the customer's requirements. Water-Soluble Fluxes The water-soluble fluxes are generally used to provide high fluxing activity. Their residues are more corrosive and more conductive than the rosin-based fluxes, and, consequently, must always be removed from the finished substrate. Although termed water soluble, this does not necessarily imply that they contain water; they may also contain alcohols or glycols. It is the flux residues that are water soluble. The usual composition of a watersoluble flux is shown below. 1. A chemically-active component for cleaning the surfaces. 2. A wetting agent to promote the spreading of flux constituents. 3. A solvent to provide even distribution. 4. Substances such as glycols or watersoluble polymers to keep the activator in close contact with the metal surfaces. Although these substances can be dissolved in water, other solvents are generally used, as water has a tendency to spatter during soldering. Solvents with higher boiling pOints, such as ethylene glycol or polyethylene glycol are preferred. Water-Soluble Fluxes With Inorganic Salts These are based on inorganic salts such as zinc chloride, or ammonium chloride, or inorganic acids such as hydrochloric. Those with zinc or ammonium chloride must be followed by very stringent cleaning procedures as any halide salts remaining on the substrate will cause severe corrosion. These fluxes are generally used for non-electrical soldering. Although the hydrazine halides are among the best active fluxing agents known, they are highly suspect from a health point of view and are therefore no longer used by flux manufacturers. Water-Soluble Fluxes With Organic Salts These fluxes are based on organic hydrohalides such as dimethylammonium chloride, cyclo hexalamine hydrochloride, and aniline hydrochloride, and also on the hydrohalides of organic acids. Fluxes with organic halides usually contain vehicles such as glycerol or polyethylene glycol, and non-ionic surfaceactive agents such as nonylphenol polyoxyethylene. Some of the vehicles, such as the polyethylene glycols, can degrade the insulation resistance of epoxy substrate material and, by rendering the substrate hydrophilic, make it susceptible to electrical leakage in high-humidity environments. February 1987 Water-Soluble Fluxes With OrganiC Acids Based on acids such as lactic, melonic, or citric, these fluxes are used when the presence of any halide is prohibited. However, their fluxing action is weak, and high acid concentrations have to be used. On the other hand, they have the advantage that the flux residues can be left on the substrate for some time before washing without the risk of severe corrosion. Solder Creams For reflow soldering, both the solder and the flux are applied to the substrate before soldering and can be in the form of solder creams (or pastes), preforms, electro-deposit, or a layer of solder applied to the conductors by dipping. For SMD reflow soldering, solder cream is generally used. Solder cream is a suspension of solder particles in flux to which special compounds have been added to improve the rheological properties. The shape of the particles is important and normally spherical particles are used, although non-spherical particles are now being added, particularly in very fine-line soldering. In principle, the same fluxes are used in solder creams as for wave soldering. However, due to the relatively large surface area of the solder particles (which can oxidize), more effective fluxing is required and, in general, solder creams contain a higher percentage of activators than the liquid fluxes. The drying of the solder paste during preheating (after component placement) is an important stage as it reduces any tendency for components to become displaced during soldering. Flux Selection Choosing an appropriate flux is of prime importance to the soldering system for the production of high-quality, reliable joints. When solderability is good, a mildly-activated flux will be adequate, but when solderability is poorer, a more effective, more active flux will be required. The choice of flux, moreover, will be influenced by the cleaning facilities available, and if, in fact, cleaning is even feasible. choice will be between an RA or an RMA rosin-based flux. Application of Flux Three basic factors determine the method of applying flux: the soldering process (wave or reflow), the type of substrate being processed (all-SMD or mixed print), and the type of flux. For wave soldering, the flux must be applied in liquid form before soldering. While it is possible to apply the flux at a separate fluxing station, with the high throughput rates demanded to maximize the benefits of SMD technology, today's wave-soldering machines incorporate an integral fluxing station prior to the preheat stage. This enables the preheat stage to be used to dry the flux as well as preheat the substrate to minimize thermal shock. The most commonly-used methods of applying flux for wave soldering are by foam, wave, or spray. Foam Fluxing Foam flux is generated by forcing low-pressure clean air through an aerator immersed in liquid flux (see Figure 1). The fine bubbles produced by the aerator are guided to the surface by a chimney-shaped nozzle. The substrates are passed across the top of the nozzle so that the solder side comes in contact with the foam and an even layer of flux is applied. As the bubbles burst, flux penetrates any plated-through holes in the substrate. Wave Fluxing A double-sided wave can also be used to apply flux, where the washing action of the wave deposits a layer of flux on the solder side of the substrate (see Figure 2). Waveheight control is essential and a soft, wipe-off brush should be incorporated on the exit side of the fluxing station to remove excess flux from the substrate. With water-soluble fluxes, aqueous cleaning of the substrate after soldering is mandatory. If thorough cleaning is not carried out, severe problems may arise in the field, due to corrosion or short circuits caused by too low a surface resistance of the conductive residues. For rosin-based fluxes, the need for cleaning will depend on the activity of the flux. Mildlyactivated rosin residues can, in most cases, remain on the substrate where they will afford protection and insulation. In practice, for the great majority of electronic Circuits, the 15-18 AERATOR COMPRESSED AIR Figure 1. Schematic Diagram of Foam Fluxer Signetics Linear Products Fluxing and Cleaning PREHEATING Preheating the substrate before soldering serves several purposes. It dries the flux to evaporate most of the solvent, thus increasing the viscosity. If the viscosity is too low, the flux may be prematurely expelled from the substrate by the molten solder. This can result in poor wetting of the surfaces, and solder spatter. IMPELLER Figure 2. Schematic Diagram of Wave Fluxer Spray Fluxing Several methods of spray fluxing exist; the most common involves a mesh drum rotating in liquid flux. Air is blown into the drum which, when passing through the fine mesh, directs a spray of flux onto the underside of the substrate (see Figure 3). Four parameters affect the amount of flux deposited: conveyor speed, drum rotation, air pressure, and flux density. The thickness of the flux layer can be controlled using these parameters, and can vary between 1 and 10j1m. The advantages and disadvantages of these three flux application techniques are outlined in Table 1. Flux Density One of the main control factors for fluxes used in machine soldering is the flux density. This provides an indication of the solids content of the flux, and is dependent on the nature of the solvents used. Automatic con· trol systems, which monitor flux density and inject more solvent as required, are commer· cially available, and it is relatively simple to incorporate them into the fluxing system. Drying the flux also accelerates the chemical action of the flux on the surfaces, and so speeds up the soldering process. During the preheating stage, substrate and components are heated to between 80 0 G and 9D O G (solvent-based fluxes) or to between 1000 G and 11 DOG (water-based systems). This reduces the thermal shock when the substrate makes contact with the molten solder, and minimizes any likelihood of the substrate warping. The most common methods of preheating are: convection heating with forced air, radiation heating using coils, infrared quartz lamps or heated panels, or a combination of both convection and radiation. The use of forced air has the added advantage of being more effective for the removal of evaporated solvent. Optimum preheat temperature and duration will depend on the nature and design of the substrate and the composition of the flux. Figure 4 shows a typical method of preheat temperature control. The desired temperature is set on the control panel, and the microprocessor regulates preheater No. 1 to provide approximately 60% of the required heat. The IR detector scans the substrate immediately following No. 1 heater and reads the surface temperature. By taking into account the surface temperature, conveyor speed, and the thermal characteristics of the substrate, the microprocessor then calculates the amount of additional heat required to be provided by heater No. 2 in order to attain the preset temperature. In this way, each substrate will have the same surface temperature on reaching the solder bath. POSTSOLDERING CLEANING ROTATING DRUM Figure 3. Schematic Diagram of Spray Fluxer February 1987 Now thal worldwide efforts in both commercial and industrial electronics are converting old designs from conventional assembly to surface mounting, or a combination of both, it can also be expected that high-volume cleaning systems will convert from in-line aqueous cleaners to in-line solvent cleaners or in-line saponification systems (a technique that uses an alkaline material in water to react with the rosin so that it becomes water soluble). These systems may, however, become subject to environmental objections, and new governmental restrictions on the use of halogenated hydrocarbons. 15-19 The major reason for this is that the watersoluble flux residues, containing a higher concentration of activators, or showing hygroscopic behavior, are much more difficult to remove from SMD-populated substrates than rosin-based flux residues. This is primarily because the higher surface tension of water, compared to solvenls, makes it difficult for the cleaning agents to penetrate beneath SMDs, especially the larger ones, with their greatly reduced off-contact distance (the distance between component and substrate). Postsoldering cleaning removes any contamination, such as surface deposits, inclusions, occlusions, or absorbed matter which may degrade to an unacceptable level the chemical, physical, or electrical properties of the assembly. The types of contaminant on substrates that can produce either electrical or mechanical failure over short or prolonged periods are shown in Table 2. All these contaminants, regardless of their origin, fall into one of two groups: polar and non-polar. Polar Contaminants Polar contaminants are compounds that dissociate into free ions which are very good conductors in water, quite capable of causing circuit failures. They are also very reactive with metals and produce corrosive reactions. It is essential that polar contaminants be removed from the substrates. Non-Polar Contaminants Non-polar contaminants are compounds that do not dissociate into free ions or carry an electrical current and are generally good insulators. Rosin is a typical example of a non-polar contaminant. In most cases, nonpolar contamination does not contribute to corrosion or electrical failure and may be left on the substrate. It may, however, impede functional testing by probes and prevent good conformal coat adhesion. Solvents The solvents currently used for the postsoldering cleaning of substrates are normally organic based and are covered by three classifications: hydrophobic, hydrophillic, and azeotropes of hydrophobic/hydrophillic blends. Azeotropic solvents are mixtures of two or more different solvents which behave like a single liquid insomuch that the vapor produced by evaporation has the same composition as the liquid, which has a constant boiling point between the boiling points of the two solvents that form the azeotrope. The basic ingredients of the azeotropic solvents are combined with alcohols and stabilizers. These stabilizers, such as nitromethane, are included to prevent corrosive reaction be- • Signetlcs Linear Products Fluxing and Cleaning Table 1.

Hydrophobic solvents do not mix with water at concentrations exceeding 0.2%, and consequently have little effect on ionic contamination. They can be used to remove nonpolar contaminants such as rosin, oils, and greases. Hydrophillic solvents do mix with water and can dissolve both polar and non-polar contamination, but at different rates. To overcome these differences, azeotropes of the various solvents are formulated to maximize the dissolving action for all types of contamination. Solvent Cleaning Two types of solvent cleaning systems are in use today: batch and conveyorized systems, either of which can be used for high-volume production. In both systems, the contaminated substrates are immersed in the boiling solvents, and ultrasonic baths or brushes may also be used to further improve the cleaning capabilities. The washing of rosin-based fluxes offers advantages and disadvantages. Washed substrates can usually be inserted into racks easier, as there will be no residues on their edges; test probes can make better contact without a rosin layer on the test pOints, and the removal of the residues makes it easier to visually examine the soldered joints. On the other hand, washing equipment is expensive, and so are the solvents, and some solvents present a health or environmental hazard if not correctly dealt with. February 1987 • High flux losses due to nonrecoverable spray • System requires frequent cleaning Aqueous Cleaning For high-VOlume production, special machines have been developed in which the substrates are conveyor-fed through the various stages of spraying, washing, rinsing, and drying. The final rinse water is blown from the substrates to prevent any deposits from the water being left on the substrate. Where water-soluble fluxes have been used in the soldering process, substrate cleaning is mandatory. For the rosin-based fluxes, it is optional, and is often at the discretion of the customer. Conformal Coatings A conformal, or protective coating on the substrate, applied at the end of processing, prevents or minimizes the effects of humidity and protects the substrate from contamination by airborne dust particles. Substrates that are to be provided with a conformal coating (dependent on the environmental conditions to which the substrate will be subjected) must first be washed. Environmental and Ecological Aspects of Fluxes and Solvents Fumes and vapors produced during soldering processes, or during cleaning, will not, under normal circumstances, present a health hazard, if relevant health and safety regulations are observed. Fumes originating from colo phony can cause respiratory problems, so an efficient fumeextraction system is essential. The extraction system must cover the fluxing, preheating, and soldering stations, remain operational for at least one hour after machine shutdown, 15-20 and conform to local regulations. Today, the problem of noxious fumes is unlikely to concern the cleaning station, as all commercial systems are equipped to condense the vapors back into the system. In the future, however, it can be expected that a much lower degree of escape of noxious fumes from any system will be allowed, and all systems may have to be reviewed. Certain fluxes, particularly some water-soluble ones, contain highly aggressive substances, and must not be allowed to come into contact with the skin or eyes. Any contamination should immediately be removed with plenty of clean, fresh water. Deionized water should also be readily available as an eye-wash. Should contamination occur, a qualified medical practitioner should be consulted. Protective clothing should be worn during cleaning or maintenance of the fluxing station. Conclusion SMD technology imposes tougher restraints on fluxing and cleaning of substrate assemblies. Traditionally, rosin-based fluxes have been used in electronic soldering where residues were considered "safe" and could be left on the board. However, increased SMD packing density, fine-line tracks, and more rigid specifications have resulted in changes to this basic philosophy. There is now a demand for surfaces free from reSidues; test probes are more efficient when they do not have to penetrate rosin flux residues, and conformal coating and board inspection benefit from the absence of such residues. Cleaning also poses problems for SMD substrates. The close proximity of component and substrate means ihat solvents cannot effectively clean beneath devices. Components must also be compatible with the cleaning process. They must, for example, be resistant to the solvents used and to the temperatures of the cleaning process. They must also be sealed to prevent cleaning fluids from entering the devices and degrading performance. So, eliminating the need for cleaning is better than poor or incomplete cleaning. And in a well-balanced system, mildly-activated rosinbased fluxes, leaving only non-corrosive residues, can be successfully used for SMD substrate soldering without subsequent cleaning. Much research into fluxes and solder creams is presently being done - for example, the production of synthetic resin, with qualities superior to colophony at a lower cost. Another area of research is that of solder creams with non-melting additives, such as lead or ceramic spheres, that increase the distance Signetics Linear Products Fluxing and Cleaning CONVEYOR DRIVE MOTOR PRE·HEATER 2 SOLDER BATH TEMPERATURE SET CONTROL PANEL Figure 4.

This is because an increase in junction temperature (TJ) can have an adverse effect on the long-term operating life of an IC. As will be shown in this section, the advantages realized by miniaturization can often have trade-offs in terms of increased junction temperatures. Some of the VARIABLES affecting TJ are controlled by the PRODUCER of the IC, while others are controlled by the USER and the ENVIRONMENT In which the device Is used. With the increased use of Surface-Mount Device (SMD) technology, management of thermal characteristics remains a valid concern, not only because the SMD packages are much smaller, but also because the thermal energy is concentrated more densely on the printed wiring board (PW8). For these reasons, the designer and manufacturer of surface-mount assemblies (SMAs) must be more aware of all the variables affecting TJ. POWER DISSIPATION Power dissipation (PD), varies from one device to another and can be obtained by multiplying Vcc Max by typical Icc· Since Icc decreases with an increase in temperature, maximum Icc values are not used. THERMAL RESISTANCE The ability of the package to conduct this heat from the chip to the environment is expressed in terms of thermal resistance. The term normally used is Theta JA (OJA)' OJA is often separated into two components: thermal resistance from the junction to case, and the thermal resistance from the case to ambient. OJA represents the total resistance to heat flow from the chip to ambient and is expressed as follows: OJC + OCA = OJA JUNCTION TEMPERATURE (TJ) Junction temperature (TJ) is the temperature of a powered IC measured by Signetics at the .w.wJ. rmm so LEADFRAME DIP LEADFRAME DIP LEADFRAME b.

When the chip is powered, the heat generated causes the T J to rise above the ambient temperature (TA)' T J is calculated by multiplying the power dissipation of the device by the thermal resistance of the package and adding the ambient temperature to the result. TJ=(Po x 8JA)+TA FACTORS AFFECTING 8JA There are several factors which affect the thermal resistance of any IC package. Effective thermal management demands a sound understanding of all these variables. Package variables include the leadframe design and materials, the plastic used to encapsulate the device, and, to a lesser extent, other variables such as the die size and die attach methods. Other factors that have a significant impact on the 8JA include the substrate upon which the IC is mounted, the density of the layout, the air-gap between the package and the substrate, the number and length of traces on the board, the use of thermallyconductive epoxies, and external cooling methods. PACKAGE CONSIDERATIONS Studies with dual in-line plastic (DIP) packages over the years have shown the value of proper leadframe design in achieving minimum thermal resistance. SMD leadframes are smaller than their DIP counterparts (see Figures 1a and 1b). Because the same die is used in each of the packages, the die-pad, or flag, must be at least as large in the SO as in the DIP. While the size and shape of the leads have a measurable effect on 8JA, the design factors that have the most significant effect are the die-pad size and the tie-bar size. With design constraints caused by both miniaturization and the need to assemble packages in an automated environment, the internal design of an SMD is much different than in a DIP. However, the design is one that strikes a balance between the need to miniaturize, the need to automate the assembly of the package, and the need to obtain optimum thermal characteristics. lEAD FRAME MATERIAL is one of the more important factors in thermal management. For years, the DIP leadframes were constructed out of Alloy-42. These leadframes met the producers' and users' specifications in quality and reliability. However, three to five years ago the lead frame material of DIPs was changed from Alloy-42 to Copper (ClF) in order to provide reduced 8JA and extend the reliable temperature-operating range. While this change has already taken place for the DIP, it is still taking place for the SO package. February 1987 Signetics began making 14-pin SO packages with ClF in April 1984 and completed conversion to ClF for all SO packages by 1985. As is shown in Figures 10 through 14, the change to ClF is producing dramatic results in the 8JA of SO packages. All PlCCs are assembled with copper leadframes. The MOLDING COMPOUND is another factor in thermal management. The compound used by Signetics and Philips is the same high purity epoxy used in DIP packages (at present, HC-10, Type II). This reduces corrosion caused by impurities and moisture. OTHER FACTORS often considered are the die-size, die-attach methods, and wire bonding. Tests have shown that die size has a minor effect on 8JA (see Figures 10 through 14). While there is a difference between the thermal resistance of the silver-filled adhesive used for die attach and a gold silicon eutectic die attach, the thickness of this layer (1 - 2 mils) is so small it makes the difference insignificant. Gold-wire bonding in the range of 1.0 to 1.3 mils does not provide a significant thermal path in any package. In summary, the SMD leadframe is much smaller than in a DIP and, out of necessity, is designed differently; however, the SMD package offers an adequate 8JA for all moderate power devices. Further, the change to ClF will reduce the 8JA even more, lowering the TJ and providing an even greater margin of reliability. SIGNETICS' THERMAL RESISTANCE MEASUREMENTS - SMD PACKAGES The graphs illustrated in this application note show the thermal resistance of Signetics' SMD devices. These graphs give the relationship between 8JA Gunction-to-ambient) or 8JC Gunction-to-case) and the device die size. Data is also provided showing the difference between still air (natural convection cooling) and air flow (forced cooling) ambients. All 8JA tests were run with the SMD device soldered to test boards. It is important to recognize that the test board is an essential part of the test environment and that boards of different sizes, trace layouts, or compositions may give different results from this data. Each SMD user should compare his system to the Signetics test system and determine if the data is appropriate or needs adjustment for his application. 15-23 Test Method Signetics uses what is commonly called the TSP (temperature-sensitive parameter) method. This method meets Mil-STD 883C, Method 1012.1. The basic idea of this method is to use the forward voltage drop of a calibrated diode to measure the change in junction temperature due to a known power dissipation. The thermal resistance can be calculated using the following equation: Ll.TJ TJ- TA 8JA=-=-Po Po Test Procedure TSP Calibration The TSP diode is·calibrated using a constanttemperature oil bath and constant-current power supply. The calibration temperatures used are typically 25°C and 75°C and are measured to an accuracy of ± 0.1 °c. The calibration current must be kept low to avoid significant junction heating; data given here used constant currents of either 1.0mA or 3.0mA. The temperature coefficient (K-Factor) is calculated using the following equation: Temperature Coefficient (OC/mV) Higher Test Temperature (0C) lower Test Temperature (0C) Forward Voltage at IF and T2 Forward Voltage at IF and T1 Constant Forward Measurement Current (See Figure 2) Where: K T2 T1 VF2 VF1 IF = = = = = = VF(VOLTS) Figure 2. Forward Voltage - Junction Temperature Characteristics of a Semiconductor Junction Operating at a Constant Current. The K Factor Is the Reciprocal of the Slope Thermal Resistance Measurement The thermal resistance is measured by applying a sequence of constant current and constant voltage pulses to the device under test. The constant current pulse (same current at which the TSP was calibrated) is used to measure the forward voltage of the TSP. The constant voltage pulse is used to heat the part. The measurement pulse is very short • Signetics Linear Products Thermal Considerations for Surface-Mounted Devices (less than 1% of cycle) compared to the heating pulse (greater than 99% of cycle) to minimize junction cooling during measurement. This cycle starts at ambient temperature and continues until steady-state conditions are reached. The thermal resistance can then be calculated using the following equation; .Cl.TJ K{VFA - VFS) eJA = = -'--'-'-'--'-= Po VH X IH Where; VFA = Forward Voltage of TSP at Ambient Temperature (mY) VFS = Forward Voltage of TSP at Steady-State Temperature (mY) VH = Heating Voltage (V) IH = Heating Current (A) Figure 3_ Board Trace Configuration for Thermal Resistance Test Boards Test Ambient eJA Tests All eJA test data collected in this application note was obtained with the SMD devices soldered to either Philips SO Thermal Resistance Test Boards or Signetics PLCC Thermal Resistance Test Boards with the following parameters; Board size - SO Small 1.12" X 0.75" X 0.059" - SO Large; 1.58" X 0.75" X 0.059" -PLCC; 2.24" X 2.24" X 0.062" Board Material- Glass epoxy, FR-4 type with 10z. sq.ft. copper solder coated Board Trace Configuration - See Figure 3. SO devices are set at 8 - 9mil stand-off and SO boards use one connection pin per device lead. PLCC boards generally use 2 - 4 connection pins regardless of device lead count. Figure 5 shows a cross-section of an SO part soldered to test board, and Figure 4 shows typical board/device assemblies ready for eJA Test. The still-air tests were run in a box having a volume of 1 cubic foot of air at room temperature. The air-flow tests were run in a 4" X 4" cross-section by 26" long wind tunnel with air at room temperature. All devices were soldered on test boards and held in a horizontal test position. The test boards were held in a Textool ZIF socket with 0.16" stand-off. Figure 6 shows the air-flow test setup. eJC Tests The eJC test is run by holding the test device against an "infinite" heat sink (water-cooled block approximately 4" X 7" X 0.75") to give February 1987 Figure 4_ Device/Board Assemblies a eCA (case-to-ambient) approaching zero. The copper heat sink is held at a constant temperature ("'20'C) and monitored with a thermocouple (O.040" diameter sheath, grounded junction type K) mounted flush with heat-sink surface and centered below die in the test device. Figure 7 shows the eJC test mounting for a PLCC device. SO devices are mounted with the bottom of the package held against the heat sink. This is achieved by bending the device leads straight out from the package body. Two small wires are soldered to the appropriate leads for tester connection. Thermal grease is used between the test device and heat sink to assure good thermal coupling. PLCC devices are mounted with the top of the package held against the heat sink.

By hand 3. Repairing soldered joints The same precautions and limits apply as in (1) above. Apply the soldering iron below the seating plane (or not more than 2mm above it). If its temperature is below 300'C it must not be in contact for more than 10 seconds; if between 300'C and 400'C, for not more than 5 seconds. 2. By dip or wave The maximum permissible teniperature of the solder is 260'C; this temperature must not be in contact with the joint for more than 5 seconds. The total contact time of successive solder waves must not exceed 5 seconds. The device may be mounted up to the seating plane, but the temperature of the plastic body must not exceed the specified storage maximum. If the printed-circuit board has been pre-heated, forced cooling may be necessary February 1987 SMALL OUTLINE (SO) PACKAGES The Reflow Solder Technique The preferred technique for mounting miniature components on hybrid thick or thin-film circuits is reflow soldering. Solder is applied to the required areas on the substrate by dipping in a solder bath or, more usually, by screen printing a solder paste. Components are put in place and the solder is reflowed by heating. Solder pastes consist of very finely powdered solder and flux suspended in an organic liquid binder. They are available in various forms depending on the specification of the solder 15-52 and the type of binder used. For hybrid circuit use, a tin-lead solder with 2 to 4 % silver is recommended. The working temperature of this paste is about 220 to 230'C when a mild flux is used. For printing the paste onto the substrate a stainless steel screen with a mesh of 80 to 10511m is used for which the emulsion thickness should be about 50l1m. To ensure that sufficient solder paste is applied to the substrate, the screen aperture should be slightly larger than the corresponding contact area. The contact pins are positioned on the substrate, the slight adhesive force of the solder paste being sufficient to keep them in place. The substrate is heated to the solder working temperature preferably by means of a controlled hot plate. The soldering process should be kept as short as possible: 10 to 15 seconds is sufficient to ensure good solder joints and evaporation of the binder fluid. After soldering, the substrate must be cleaned of any remaining flux.
