USING STV8203
1 - Hardware
1.a - Power Supplies (see Figure 2)
between stereo or mono signals in the playback
mode in case of marginal noise conditions.
The IC is using two main power supplies :
- DVDD5 supplies all the digital part VNom. = 5V.
This power supply can be switched-off in stand-
by mode.
- AVCC suppliestheaudio matrixpart : ifVNom. = 8V
then the output voltage swing on output pins can
reach2VRMS, ifVNom. = 5V thentheoutputvoltage
1.d - Stand-by
Stand-bywith THRU mode : the analog part of the
device has its own power supply (AVCC) allowing
thispart to keepworking even when thedigitalpart,
powered by the 5V power supply (DVDD5), is in
stand-by.
swing on output pins can reach 1VRMS
.
In this case, the audio matrix is put in a special
setting :
- LIL1 to AOL2,

- input gain = 0dB.
This allows to achieve a ”THRU” mode from
SCART1 input to SCART2 output and SCART2
input to SCART1 output, providing a copy facility
from SCARTIN to SCARTOUT.

1.b - Sound Subcarrier Filters
Two modes of operation are available :
Sound demodulation and decoding are very easy
withthisdeviceprovidingallthenecessaryfunctions
for that purpose, including the channel filters.
TheseFIR base-bandfilters givethe bestselectivity

the correct cosine roll-off response.
This implies that no external filters are required
(except may be a simple high-pass filter, if the saw
filters and sound IF demodulators used in the ap-
plication create picture interferences).
2.a - Optimized Program Mode
Four standardshavedefault setting stored in order
to allow a very easy programmation. Only some
registers may have to be programmed (these reg-
istersare shown in bold in the Figure 3) but in most
cases, the reset values will be sufficient. In Fig-
ure 3, CTL and STATrepresent registerswhich are
controlledby the ”standardprocessor”.These reg-
isters are located between address 23Hex and
3CHex in the complete list of registers.
The filters can be automaticallyset for B/G/H/I/L/L’
standards. They can also be easily tuned through
I2C for M, D, K, K1.
2.b - Advanced Operation Mode
In that mode, all the read/write registers (as men-
tionned in the complete list) can be programmed
manually and changed from their reset values.
1.c - Audio Matrix
The mono output (MOUT) can output L1, R1 or
(L1+R1)/2 signal. A typical application is the possi-
bilityto recorda selected channelin monomode on
thelineartrackof a VCRseparatelyfromtherecord-
ingofthestereosignal,providingthefacilitytoselect
The additionnal registers accessible in this mode
are shown in bold in Figure 4. This mode can be
selected by putting the bits [3:0] of AO-CONTROL
register to 0.
