Functional Description
10
SLES140A—March 2007TVP5147M1PFP
Up to 10 selectable individual composite video inputs
Up to four selectable S-video inputs
Up to three selectable analog YPbPr video inputs and one CVBS input
Up to two selectable analog YPbPr video inputs, two S-video inputs, and two CVBS inputs
The input selection is performed by the input select register at I
2
C subaddress 00h (see Section 2.11.1).
2.1.2 Analog Input Clamping
An internal clamping circuit restores the ac-coupled video signal to a fixed dc level. The clamping circuit
provides line-by-line restoration of the video sync level to a fixed dc reference voltage. The selection between
bottom and mid clamp is performed automatically by the TVP5147M1 decoder.
2.1.3 Automatic Gain Control
The TVP5147M1 decoder uses two programmable gain amplifiers (PGAs), one per channel. The PGA can
scale a signal with a voltage-input compliance of 0.5-V
PP
to 2.0-V
PP
to a full-scale 10-bit A/D output code
range. A 4-bit code sets the coarse gain with individual adjustment per channel. Minimum gain corresponds
to a code 0x0 (2.0-V
PP
full-scale input, −6-dB gain) while maximum gain corresponds to code 0xF (0.5 V
PP
full scale, +6-dB gain). The TVP5147M1 decoder also has 12-bit fine gain controls for each channel and
applies independently to coarse gain controls. For composite video, the input video signal amplitude can vary
significantly from the nominal level of 1 V
PP
. The TVP5147M1 decoder can adjust its PGA setting
automatically: an automatic gain control (AGC) can be enabled and can adjust the signal amplitude such that
the maximum range of the ADC is reached without clipping. Some nonstandard video signals contain peak
white levels that saturate the ADC. In these cases, the AGC automatically cuts back gain to avoid clipping.
If the AGC is on, then the TVP5147M1 decoder can read the gain currently being used.
The TVP5147M1 AGC comprises the front-end AGC before Y/C separation and the back-end AGC after Y/C
separation. The back-end AGC restores the optimum system gain whenever an amplitude reference such as
the composite peak (which is only relevant before Y/C separation) forces the front-end AGC to set the gain
too low. The front-end and back-end AGC algorithms can use up to four amplitude references: sync height,
color burst amplitude, composite peak, and luma peak.
The specific amplitude references being used by the front-end and back-end AGC algorithms can be
independently controlled using the AGC white peak processing register located at subaddress 74h. The
TVP5147M1 gain increment speed and gain increment delay can be controlled using the AGC increment
speed register located at subaddress 78h and the AGC increment delay register located at subaddress 79h.
2.1.4 Analog Video Output
One of the analog input signals is available at the analog video output terminal, which is shared with input
selected by I
2
C registers. The signal at this terminal must be buffered by a source follower. The nominal output
voltage is 2 V p-p, thus the signal can be used to drive a 75- line. The magnitude is maintained with an AGC
in 16 steps controlled by the TVP5147M1 decoder. In order to use this function, terminal VI_1_A must be set
as an output terminal. The input mode selection register also selects an active analog output signal.
2.1.5 A/D Converters
All ADCs have a resolution of 10 bits and can operate up to 30 MSPS. All A/D channels receive an identical
clock from the on-chip phase-locked loop (PLL) at a frequency between 24 MHz and 30 MHz. All ADC
reference voltages are generated internally.
