Features
Description
• All Chroma Processing and Demodulating Circuitry The Harris CA3217E (Note) is a monolithic silicon integrated
on a Single Chip in a 28 Lead Plastic Package
circuit. It contains all the required circuit functions between
the video detector and the picture tube RGB driver stages of
a color television receiver. The CA3217E decodes the
chrominance signals and then produces three different color
signals that are internally combined with the luminance to
develop the RGB signals. The picture saturation, hue and
brightness DC controls are externally adjustable by the
viewers. The AFPC, ACC, Dynamic flesh control, Beam
limiting and Gate black level (Brightness) control are servo
loops used to stabilize the RGB output and reduce frequent
manual adjustment. The automatic beam limiter circuit
reduces picture contrast and brightness to prevent
excessive drive output at the picture tube.
• Phase Locked Subcarrier Regeneration Utilizing
Sample and Hold Techniques
• Supplementary ACC with Overload Detector to
Prevent Over Saturation of the Picture Tube
• Linear DC Controls for Chroma Gain and Tint
• Dynamic “Flesh Correction” - Corrects Purple and
Green Flesh Colors without Affecting Primary Colors
• Balanced Chroma Demodulators with Low Output
Impedance for Direct Coupling
• Internal RF Filtering
NOTE: Formerly Developmental Type No. TA10806.
• Requires Few External Components
• Automatic Beam Limiter
