GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD9888 is a complete 8-bit, 170 MSPS, monolithic analog
interface optimized for capturing RGB graphics signals from
personal computers and workstations. Its 170 MSPS encode rate
capability and full-power analog bandwidth of 500 MHz supports
resolutions of up to 1600 × 1200 (UXGA) at 75 Hz.
range from 10 MHz to 170 MHz. PLL clock jitter is typically
less than 450 ps p-p at 170 MSPS. When the COAST signal is
presented, the PLL maintains its output frequency in the absence of
HSYNC. A sampling phase adjustment is provided. Data, HSYNC,
and clock output phase relationships are maintained. The PLL
can be disabled, and an external clock input can be provided as
the pixel clock. The AD9888 also offers full sync processing for
composite sync and sync-on-green applications.
For ease of design and to minimize cost, the AD9888 is a fully
integrated interface solution for flat panel displays. The AD9888
includes an analog interface that has a 170 MHz triple ADC with
an internal 1.25 V reference phase-locked loop (PLL) to generate a
pixel clock from HSYNC and COAST; midscale clamping; and
programmable gain, offset, and clamp controls. The user provides
only a 3.3 V power supply, analog input, and HSYNC and COAST
signals. Three-state CMOS outputs can be powered from 2.5 V
to 3.3 V.
A CLAMP signal is generated internally or can be provided by the
user through the CLAMP input pin. This device is fully program-
mable via a 2-wire serial port.
Fabricated in an advanced CMOS process, the AD9888 is
provided in a space-saving, 128-lead, MQFP, surface-mount,
plastic package and is specified over the 0°C to 70°C temperature
range. The AD9888 is also available in a Pb-free package.
The on-chip PLL of the AD9888 generates a pixel clock from the
HSYNC and COAST inputs. Pixel clock output frequencies
