M37273M8–XXXSP, M37273MF–XXXSP
M37273E8SP, M37273EFSP
SINGLE-CHIP 8-BIT CMOS MICROCOMPUTER with CLOSED CAPTION DECODER
and ON-SCREEN DISPLAY CONTROLLER
1. DESCRIPTION
●OSD function
Display characters ................................... 32 characters ✕ 2 lines
The M37273M8-XXXSP and M37273MF-XXXSP are single-chip mi-
(It is possible to display 3 lines or more by software)
Kinds of characters ........................................................ 254 kinds
Character display area............................ CC mode: 16 ✕ 26 dots
OSD mode: 16 ✕ 20 dots
crocomputers designed with CMOS silicon gate technology. They
2
have a OSD, data slicer, and I C-BUS interface, so it is useful for a
channel selection system for TV with a closed caption decoder.
The features of the M37273E8SP and M37273EFSP are similar to
those of the M37273M8-XXXSP and M37273MF-XXXSP except that
the chip has a built-in PROM which can be written electrically. The
difference between M37273M8-XXXSP and M37273MF-XXXSP are
the ROM size and RAM size. Accordingly, the following descriptions
will be for the M37273M8-XXXSP.
Kinds of character sizes..................................... CC mode: 1 kind
OSD mode: 8 kinds
Kinds of character colors .................................. 8 colors (R, G, B)
Coloring unit................... character, character background, raster
