FMS9884A
Graphics Digitizer
3x8-Bit, 108/140/175 Ms/s Triple Video A/D Converter with Clamps
is via registers, accessible through an SMBus/I2C compatible
serial port.
Features
• 3-channels
• 100/140/175 Ms/s conversion rate
• Programmable Clamps
• Adjustable Gain and offset
Input amplitude range is 500–1000mV with either DC or AC
coupling. Lower reference of AC coupled inputs is estab-
lished with input clamps that are either internally generated
or externally provided.
• Internal Reference Voltage
• I2C/SMBus compatible Serial Port
• Pin Compatible with AD9884A
Common to the three channels are clamp pulses, a bandgap
reference voltage and clocks derived from a PLL or an external
source. Digital data levels are 2.5–3.3 volt CMOS compliant.
Applications
• Flat panel displays and projectors
Power can be derived from a single +3.3 Volt power supply. For
• RGB Graphics Processing
175 MHz applications see special VPLL requirements. Package
is a 128-lead MQFP. Performance specifications are guaran-
teed over 0°C to 70°C range.
Description
As a fully integrated analog interface, the FMS9884A can digi-
tize RGB graphics with resolutions up to 1600 x 1200/65Hz

refresh or 1600 x 1200/85Hz using alternate pixel sampling.
ADC sampling clock can be derived from either an external
source or incoming horizontal sync signal using the internal
PLL. Output data is released through either one port at full
rate or both ports, each running at half-rate. Setup and control
