VP531E/VP551E
NTSC/PAL Digital Video Encoder
Advance Information
Supersedes DS4573 1.4 May 1997 edition
DS4573 - 2.3 October1998
The VP531/VP551 converts digital Y, Cr, Cb, data into
analog NTSC/PAL composite video and S-video signals
The outputs are capable of driving doubly terminated 75
ohm loads with standard video levels.
The device accepts data inputs complying with CCIR
Recommendation 601 and 656. The data is time multiplexed
on an 8 bit bus at 27MHz and is formatted as Cb, Y, Cr, Y
(i.e. 4:2:2). The video blanking and sync information from
REC 656 is included in the data stream when the VP531 is
working in slave mode.
The output pixel rate is 27MHz and the input pixel rate
is half this frequency, i.e. 13.5MHz.
All necessary synchronisation signals are generated
internally when the device is operating in master mode. In
slave mode the device will lock to the TRS codes or the HS
and VS inputs.
PIN 64
The rise and fall times of sync, burst envelope and
video blanking are internally controlled to be within
composite video specifications.
PIN 1
GP64
Two 9 bit digital to analog converters (DACs) are used
to convert the digital luminance and chrominance data into
analog signals. An inverted composite video signal is
generated by summing the complementary current outputs
of each DAC. An internally generated reference voltage
provides the biasing for the DACs.
