AD722 General Description
The AD722 is a low cost RGB to NTSC/PAL Encoder that converts red, green and blue color component signals into their corresponding luminance (baseband amplitude) and chrominance (subcarrier amplitude and phase) signals in accordance with either NTSC or PAL standards. These two outputs are also combined to provide composite video output. All three outputs can simultaneously drive 75 Ω, reverse-terminated cables. All logical inputs are CMOS compatible. The chip operates from a single +5 V supply. No external delay lines or filters are required. The AD722 may be powered down when not in use.
The AD722 accepts either FSC or 4FSC clock. When a clock is not available, a low cost parallel-resonant crystal (3.58 MHz (NTSC) or 4.43 MHz (PAL)) and the AD722's on-chip oscillator generate the necessary subcarrier clock. The AD722 also accepts the subcarrier clock from an external video source.The interface to VGA Controllers and MPEG Video Decoders is simple: an on-chip logic "XNOR" accepts the available vertical (VSYNC) and horizontal sync (HSYNC) signals and creates the composite sync (CSYNC) signal on-chip. If available, the AD722 will also accept a standard CSYNC signal by connecting VSYNC to +5 V and applying CSYNC to HSYNC pin. The AD722 contains decoding logic to identify valid HSYNC pulses for correct burst insertion.
