TV signal processor-Teletext decoder
with embedded µ-Controller
TDA955X/6X/8X PS/N1 series
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The various versions of the TDA955X/6X/8X PS/N1 series
combine the functions of a video processor together with a
µ-Controller and US Closed Caption decoder. Several
versions have a Teletext decoder on board. The Teletext
decoder has an internal RAM memory for 1or 10 page text.
The ICs are intended to be used in economy television
receivers with 90° and 110° picture tubes.
The ICs have supply voltages of 8 V and 3.3 V and they
are mounted in an S-DIP 64 envelope.
The features are given in the following feature list. The
differences between the various ICs are given in the table
on page 4.
FEATURES
• Integrated chroma band-pass filter with switchable
centre frequency
TV-signal processor
• Only one reference (12 MHz) crystal required for the
µ-Controller, Teletext- and the colour decoder
• Multi-standard vision IF circuit with alignment-free PLL
demodulator
• PAL/NTSC or multi-standard colour decoder with
automatic search system
• Internal (switchable) time-constant for the IF-AGC circuit
• A choice can be made between versions with mono
intercarrier sound FM demodulator and versions with
QSS IF amplifier. In the QSS versions without
East-West output an AM/FM mode can be activated. In
that case both the QSS amplifier (for AM demodulation)
and the FM demodulator are available.
• Internal base-band delay line
• Indication of the Signal-to-Noise ratio of the incoming
CVBS signal
• RGB control circuit with ‘Continuous Cathode
Calibration’, white point and black level off-set
adjustment so that the colour temperature of the dark
and the light parts of the screen can be chosen
independently.
• The mono intercarrier sound circuit has a selective
FM-PLL demodulator which can be switched to the
different FM sound frequencies (4.5/5.5/6.0/6.5 MHz).
The quality of this system is such that the external
band-pass filters can be omitted.
• A linear RGB/YUV/YPBPR input with fast blanking for
external RGB/YUV sources. The synchronisation circuit
can be connected to the incoming Y signal. The
Text/OSD signals are internally supplied from the
µ-Controller/Teletext decoder.
• The FM-PLL demodulator can be set to centre
frequencies of 4.74/5.74 MHz so that a second sound
channel can be demodulated. In such an application it is
necessary that an external bandpass filter is inserted.
• Contrast reduction possibility during mixed-mode of
OSD and Text signals
• The QSS amplifier and mono intercarrier sound circuit of
some versions can be used for the demodulation of FM
radio signals
• Adjustable ‘wide blanking’ of the RGB outputs
• Horizontal synchronization with two control loops and
alignment-free horizontal oscillator
• Source selection between the ‘internal’ CVBS and one
external CVBS or Y/C signal
• Vertical count-down circuit
• Integrated chrominance trap circuit
• Vertical driver optimized for DC-coupled vertical output
stages
• Integrated luminance delay line with adjustable delay
time
• Horizontal and vertical geometry processing
• Picture improvement features with peaking (with
switchable centre frequency, depeaking, variable
positive/negative overshoot ratio and video dependent
coring) and blue- and black stretching
• Horizontal and vertical zoom function for 16 : 9
applications
• Horizontal parallelogram and bow correction for large
screen picture tubes
• Low-power start-up of the horizontal drive circuit

Note
1. When the AM/FM mode is chosen several pins have a different function. For this reason this mode can be selected only when the adapted
application is used.
2. When in the AM/FM mode the AM bit is activated a capacitor with a value of about 2.2 µF has to be switched externally in parallel with the sound
PLL filter
3. When additional (external) selectivity is required for FM-PLL system pin 32 can be used as sound IF input. This function is selected by means of
SIF bit in subaddress 21H.

The Data memory is 256 x 8-bits and occupies the address
range 00 to FF Hex when using Indirect addressing and 00
to 7F Hex when using direct addressing. The SFRs occupy
the address range 80 Hex to FF Hex and are accessible
using Direct addressing only. The lower 128 Bytes of Data
memory are mapped as shown in Fig.7. The lowest 32

SFR MEMORY
The Special Function Register (SFR) space is used for port latches, counters/timers, peripheral control, data capture and
display. These registers can only be accessed by direct addressing. Sixteen of the addresses in the SFR space are both
bit and byte addressable. The bit addressable SFRs are those whose address ends in 0H or 8H. A summary of the SFR
map in address order is shown in Table 2.

STO
START flag. When this bit is set in slave mode, the hardware checks the I2C bus and generates a START condition if the bus is free or after the bus
becomes free. If the device operates in master mode it will generate a repeated START condition.
STOP flag. If this bit is set in a master mode a STOP condition is generated. A STOP condition detected on the I2C bus clears this bit. This bit may
also be set in slave mode in order to recover from an error condition. In this case no STOP condition is generated to the I2C bus, but the hardware
releases the SDA and SCL lines and switches to the not selected receiver mode. The STOP flag is cleared by the hardware.
SI
Serial Interrupt flag. This flag is set and an interrupt request is generated, after any of the following events occur:
-A START condition is generated in master mode.
-The own slave address has been received during AA=1.
-The general call address has been received while S1ADR.GC and AA=1.
-A data byte has been received or transmitted in master mode (even if arbitration is lost).
-A data byte has been received or transmitted as selected slave.
A STOP or START condition is received as selected slave receiver or transmitter
While the SI flag is set, SCL remains LOW and the serial transfer is suspened.SI must be reset by software.
AA
Assert Acknowledge flag. When this bit is set, an acknowledge is returned after any one of the following conditions
-Own slave address is received.
-General call address is received(S1ADR.GC=1).
-A data byte is received, while the device is programmed to be a master receiver.
-A data byte is received, while the device is selected slave receiver.
When the bit is reset, no acknowledge is returned. Consequently, no interrupt is requested when the own address or general call address is
received.

During Stand-by mode, the Acquisition and Display

• Memory Interface
• I2C
• Timer/Counters
• WatchDog Timer
• SAD and PWMs

To enter Stand-by mode, the STAND-BY bit in the
ROMBANK register must be set. Once in Stand-By, the
XTAL oscillator continues to run, but the internal clock to
Acquisition and Display are gated out. However, the clocks
to the 80c51 CPU Core, Memory Interface, I2C,
Timer/Counters, WatchDog Timer and Pulse Width
Modulators are maintained. Since the output values on
RGB and VDS are maintained the display output must be
disabled before entering this mode.
This mode may be used in conjunction with both Idle and
Power-Down modes. Hence, prior to entering either Idle or
Power-Down, the STAND-BY bit may be set, thus allowing
wake-up of the 80c51 CPU core without fully waking the
entire device (This enables detection of a Remote Control
source in a power saving mode).
executed will be the one following the instruction that put
the device into Idle.
• The third method of terminating Idle mode is with an
external hardware reset. Since the oscillator is running,
the hardware reset need only be active for two machine
cycles (24 clocks at 12MHz) to complete the reset
operation. Reset defines all SFRs and Display memory
to a pre-defined state, but maintains all other RAM
values. Code execution commences with the Program
Counter set to ’0000’.
POWER DOWN MODE
In Power Down mode the XTAL oscillator still runs, and
differential clock transmitter is active. The contents of all
SFRs and Data memory are maintained, however, the
contents of the Auxiliary/Display memory are lost. The port
pins maintain the values defined by their associated SFRs.
Since the output values on RGB and VDS are maintained
the Display output must be made inactive before entering
Power Down mode.
The power down mode is activated by setting the PD bit in
the PCON register. It is advised to disable the WatchDog
timer prior to entering Power down. Recovery from
Power-Down takes several milli-seconds as the oscillator
must be given time to stabilise.
There are three methods of exiting power down:-
• An External interrupt provides the first mechanism for
waking from Power-Down. Since the clock is stopped,
external interrupts needs to be set level sensitive prior to
entering Power-Down. The interrupt is serviced, and
following the instruction RETI, the next instruction to be
executed will be the one after the instruction that put the
device into Power-Down mode.
IDLE MODE
During Idle mode, Acquisition, Display and the CPU
sections of the device are disabled. The following
functions remain active:-
• Memory Interface
• I2C
• Timer/Counters
• WatchDog Timer
• SAD & PWMs
To enter Idle mode the IDL bit in the PCON register must
be set. The WatchDog timer must be disabled prior to
entering Idle to prevent the device being reset. Once in Idle
mode, the XTAL oscillator continues to run, but the internal
clock to the CPU, Acquisition and Display are gated out.
However, the clocks to the Memory Interface, I2C,
Timer/Counters, WatchDog Timer and Pulse Width
Modulators are maintained. The CPU state is frozen along
with the status of all SFRs, internal RAM contents are
maintained, as are the device output pin values. Since the
output values on RGB and VDS are maintained the
Display output must be disabled before entering this
mode.
There are three methods available to recover from Idle:-
• Assertion of an enabled interrupt will cause the IDL bit to
be cleared by hardware, thus terminating Idle mode.
The interrupt is serviced, and following the instruction
RETI, the next instruction to be executed will be the one
after the instruction that put the device into Idle mode.
• A second method of exiting Power-Down is via an
Interrupt generated by the SAD DC Compare circuit.
When Painter is configured in this mode, detection of a
certain analogue threshold at the input to the SAD may
be used to trigger wake-up of the device i.e. TV Front
Panel Key-press. As above, the interrupt is serviced,
and following the instruction RETI, the next instruction to
be executed will be the one following the instruction that
put the device into Power-Down.
• The third method of terminating the Power-Down mode
is with an external hardware reset. Reset defines all
SFRs and Display memory, but maintains all other RAM
values. Code execution commences with the Program
Counter set to ’0000’.
• A second method of exiting Idle is via an Interrupt
generated by the SAD DC Compare circuit. When
Painter is configured in this mode, detection of an
analogue threshold at the input to the SAD may be used
to trigger wake-up of the device i.e. TV Front Panel
Key-press. As above, the interrupt is serviced, and

TDA955X/6X/8X PS/N1 series
I/O Facility
In addition to the conventional 80c51, two application
specific interrupts are incorporated internal to the device
which have the following functionality:-
I/O PORTS
The IC has 13 I/O lines, each is individually addressable,
or form part of 4 parallel addressable ports which are
port0, port1, port2 and port3.
CC (Closed Caption Data Ready Interrupt) - This
interrupt is generated when the device is configured for
Closed Caption acquisition. The interrupt is activated at
the end of the currently selected Slice Line as defined in
the CCLIN SFR.
PORT TYPE
All individual ports can be programmed to function in one
of four modes, the mode is defined by two Port
Configuration SFRs. The modes available are Open Drain,
Quasi-bidirectional, High Impedance and Push-Pull.
BUSY (Display Busy Interrupt) - An interrupt is
generated when the Display enters either a Horizontal or
Vertical Blanking Period. i.e. Indicates when the
micro-controller can update the Display RAM without
causing undesired effects on the screen. This interrupt can
be configured in one of two modes using the MMR
Configuration Register (Address 87FF, Bit-3 [TXT/V]):-
• TeXT Display Busy: An interrupt is generated on each
active horizontal display line when the Horizontal
Blanking Period is entered.
Open Drain
The Open drain mode can be used for bi-directional
operation of a port. It requires an external pull-up resistor,
the pull-up voltage has a maximum value of 5.5V, to allow
connection of the device into a 5V environment.
• Vertical Display Busy: An interrupt is generated on each
vertical display field when the Vertical Blanking Period is
entered.
Quasi bi-directional
The quasi-bidirectional mode is a combination of open
drain and push pull. It requires an external pull-up resistor
to VDDp (nominally 3.3V). When a signal transition from
0->1 is output from the device, the pad is put into push-pull
mode for one clock cycle (166ns) after which the pad goes
into open drain mode. This mode is used to speed up the
edges of signal transitions. This is the default mode of
operation of the pads after reset.
INTERRUPT ENABLE STRUCTURE
Each of the individual interrupts can be enabled or
disabled by setting or clearing the relevant bit in the
interrupt enable SFRs (IE and IEN1). All interrupt sources
can also be globally disabled by clearing the EA bit (IE.7).

The device has 8 interrupt sources, each of which can be
enabled or disabled. When enabled, each interrupt can be
assigned one of two priority levels. There are four
interrupts that are common to the 80C51, two of these are
external interrupts (EX0 and EX1) and the other two are
timer interrupts (ET0 and ET1). There is also one interrupt
connected to the 80c51 micro-controller IIC peripheral for
Transmit and Receive operation.
The TDA955x/6x/8x family of devices have an additional
16-bit Timer (with 8-bit Pre-scaler). To accommodate this,
another interrupt ET2PR has been added to indicate timer
overflow.

Each interrupt source can be assigned one of two priority
levels. The interrupt priorities are defined by the interrupt
priority SFRs (IP and IP1). A low priority interrupt can be
interrupted by a high priority interrupt, but not by another
low priority interrupt. A high priority interrupt can not be
interrupted by any other interrupt source. If two requests of

different priority level are received simultaneously, the
request with the highest priority level is serviced. If
requests of the same priority level are received
simultaneously, an internal polling sequence determines
which request is serviced. Thus, within each priority level
there is a second priority structure determined by the
polling sequence as defined in Table 4.
In Counter mode, the register is incremented in response
to a negative transition at its corresponding external pin
T0/1. Since the pins T0/1 are sampled once per machine
cycle it takes two machine cycles to recognise a transition,
this gives a maximum count rate of 1/24 Fosc = 0.5MHz.
There are six special function registers used to control the
timers/counters as defined in Table 6.

Timer/Counter
Two 16 bit timers/counters are incorporated Timer0 and
Timer1. Both can be configured to operate as either timers
or event counters.
In Timer mode, the register is incremented on every
machine cycle. It is therefore counting machine cycles.
Since the machine cycle consists of 12 oscillator periods,
the count rate is 1/12 Fosc = 1MHz.

WatchDog Timer
The WatchDog timer is a counter that once in an overflow
state forces the micro-controller in to a reset condition. The
purpose of the WatchDog timer is to reset the
micro-controller if it enters an erroneous processor state
(possibly caused by electrical noise or RFI) within a
reasonable period of time. When enabled, the WatchDog
circuitry will generate a system reset if the user program
fails to reload the WatchDog timer within a specified length
of time known as the WatchDog interval.

Fig.12 Timer/Counter Mode control (TMOD)
The Timer/Counter function is selected by control bits C/T
in the Timer Mode SFR (TMOD). These two
Timer/Counter have four operating modes, which are
selected by bit-pairs (M1.M0) in the TMOD. Refer to the
80C51 based 8-bit micro-controllers - Philips
Semiconductors (ref. IC20) for detail of the modes and
operation.
The WatchDog timer consists of an 8-bit counter with an
16-bit pre-scaler. The pre-scaler is fed with a signal whose
frequency is 1/12 fosc (1MHz).
The 8 bit timer is incremented every ‘t’ seconds where:
TL0/TL1 and TH0/TH1 are the actual timer/counter
registers for timer0 / timer1. TL0/TL1 is the low byte and
TH0/TH1 is the high byte.
t=12x65536x1/fosc=12x65536x1/12x106 = 65.536ms
WATCHDOG TIMER OPERATION
The WatchDog operation is activated when the WLE bit in
the Power Control SFR (PCON) is set. The WatchDog can
be disabled by Software by loading the value 55H into the
WatchDog Key SFR (WDTKEY). This must be performed
before entering Idle/Power Down mode to prevent exiting
the mode prematurely.
Once activated the WatchDog timer SFR (WDT) must be
reloaded before the timer overflows. The WLE bit must be
set to enable loading of the WDT SFR, once loaded the
WLE bit is reset by hardware, this is to prevent erroneous
Software from loading the WDT SFR.
TIMER WITH PRE-SCALER
An additional 16-bit timer with 8-bit pre-scaler is provided
to allow timer periods up to 16.777 seconds. This timer
remains active during IDLE mode.
TP2L sets the lower value of the period for timer 2 and
TP2H is the upper timer value. TP2PR provides an 8-bit
pre-scaler for timer 2. The value on TP2PR, TP2H and
TP2L shall never change unless updated by the software.
If the micro reads TP2R, TP2H orTP2L at any stage, this
should return the value written and not the current timer 2
value. The timer 2 should continue after overflow by
re-loading the timer with the values of SFRs TP2PR, TP2H
and TP2L.
The value loaded into the WDT defines the WatchDog
interval.
TP2CL and TP2CH indicate the current timer 2 value.
These should be readable both when the timer 2 is active
and inactive. Once the timer 2 is disabled, the timer 2 value
at the time of disabling should be maintained on the SFRs
TP2CL and TP2CH. At a count of zero (on TP2CL and
TP2CH), the overflow flag should be set :- TP2CRL<1> -
’0’ = no timer 2 overflow, ’1’= timer 2 overflow.
TP2CRL is the control and status for timer 2. TP2CRL.0 is
the timer enable and TP2CRL.1 is the timer overflow
status. The overflow flag will need to be reset by software.
Hence, if required, software may poll flag rather than use
WatchDog interval = (256 - WDT) * t = (256 -WDT) * 65.536ms.
The range of intervals is from WDT=00H which gives
16.777s to WDT=FFH which gives 65.536ms.

PWM PULSE WIDTH MODULATORS
The device has four 6-bit Pulse Width Modulated (PWM)
outputs for analogue control of e.g. volume, balance, bass,
treble, brightness, contrast, hue and saturation. The PWM
outputs generate pulse patterns with a repetition rate of
21.33us, with the high time equal to the PWM SFR value
multiplied by 0.33us. The analogue value is determined by
the ratio of the high time to the repetition time, a D.C.

TPWM TUNING PULSE WIDTH MODULATOR
The device has a single 14-bit PWM that can be used for
Voltage Synthesis Tuning. The method of operation is
similar to the normal PWM except the repetition period is
42.66us.
SAD Input Voltage
The external analogue voltage that is used for comparison
with the internally generated DAC voltage does not have
the same voltage range. The DAC has a lower reference
level of VSSA and an upper reference level of VSSA. The
resolution of the DAC voltage with a nominal value is
3.3/256 ~ 13mV. The external analogue voltage has a
lower value equivalent to VSSA and an upper value
equivalent to VDDP - Vtn, were Vtn is the threshold voltage
for an NMOS transistor. The reason for this is that the input
pins for the analogue signals (P3.0 to P3.3) are 5V tolerant
for normal port operations, i.e. when not used as analogue
input. To protect the analogue multiplexer and comparator
circuitry from the 5V, a series transistor is used to limit the
voltage. This limiting introduces a voltage drop equivalent
to Vtn (~0.6V) on the input voltage. Therefore, for an input
voltage in the range VDDP to VDDp-Vtn the SAD returns the
same comparison value.
TPWM Control
Two SFRs are used to control the TPWM, they are TDACL
and TDACH. The TPWM is enabled by setting the TPWE
bit in the TDACH SFR. The most significant bits TD<13:7>
alter the high period between 0 and 42.33us. The 7 least
significant bits TD<6:0> extend certain pulses by a further
0.33us. e.g. if TD<6:0> = 01H then 1 in 128 periods will be
extended by 0.33us, if TD<6:0>=02H then 2 in 128 periods
will be extended.
The TPWM will not start to output a new value until TDACH
has been written to. Therefore, if the value is to be
changed, TACL should be written before TDACH.
SAD SOFTWARE A/D
Four successive approximation Analogue to Digital
Converters can be implemented in software by making use
of the on board 8-bit Digital to Analogue Converter and
Analogue Comparator.
SAD DC Comparator Mode
The SAD module incorporates a DC Comparator mode
which is selected using the ’DC_COMP’ control bit in the
SADB SFR. This mode enables the micro-controller to
detect a threshold crossing at the input to the selected
analogue input pin (P3.0, P3.1, P3.2 or P3.3) of the
Software A/D Converter. A level sensitive interrupt is
generated when the analogue input voltage level at the pin
falls below the analogue output level of the SAD D/A
converter.
SAD Control
The control of the required analogue input is done using
the channel select bits CH<1:0> in the SAD SFR, this
selects the required analogue input to be passed to one of
the inputs of the comparator. The second comparator input
is generated by the DAC whose value is set by the bits
SAD<7:0> in the SAD and SADB SFRs. A comparison
between the two inputs is made when the start compare bit
ST in the SAD SFR is set, this must be at least one
This mode is intended to provide the device with a
wake-up mechanism from Power-Down or Idle when a

information and converts it to RGB output values. The
Microcontroller uses the DRAM as embedded auxiliary
RAM.

Analogue to Digital Converter
The CVBS input is passed through a differential to single
ended converter (DIVIS), although in this device it is used
in single ended configuration with a reference.The
analogue output of DIVIS is converted into a digital
representation by a full flash ADC with a sampling rate of
12MHz.
DATA CAPTURE
The Data Capture section takes in the analogue
Composite Video and Blanking Signal (CVBS) from One
Chip, and from this extracts the required data, which is
then decoded and stored in SFR memory.
Multi Rate Video Input Processor
The multi rate video input processor is a Digital Signal
Processor designed to extract the data and recover the
clock from the digital CVBS signal.
The extraction of the data is performed in the digital
domain. The first stage is to convert the analogue CVBS
signal into a digital form. This is done using an ADC
sampling at 12MHz. The data and clock recovery is then
performed by a Multi-Rate Video Input Processor
(MulVIP). From the recovered data and clock the following
data types are extracted WST Teletext (625/525),Closed
Caption, VPS, WSS. The extracted data is stored in either
memory (DRAM) via the Memory Interface or in SFR
locations.

When the Hold bit is set to 0 the teletext decoder will not
recognise any page as having the correct page number
and no pages will be captured. In addition to providing the
user requested hold function this bit should be used to
prevent the inadvertent capture of an unwanted page
when a new page request is being made. For example, if
the previous page request was for page 100 and this was
being changed to page 234, it would be possible to capture
page 200 if this arrived after only the requested magazine
number had been changed.
The E1 and E0 bits control the error checking which should
be carried out on packets 1 to 23 when the page being
requested is captured. This is described in more detail in a
later section (‘Error Checking’).
For a multi page device, each packet can only be written
into one place in the teletext RAM so if a page matches
more than one of the page requests the data is written into
the area of memory corresponding to the lowest numbered
matching page request.
Acquisition
The acquisition sections extracts the relevant information
from the serial stream of data from the MulVIP and stores
it in memory.
625 WST ACQUISITION
The family is capable of acquiring 625-line and 525-line
World System Teletext. Teletext pages are identified by
seven numbers: magazine (page hundreds), page tens,
page units, hours tens, hours units, minutes tens and
minutes units. The last four digits, hours and minutes, are
known as the subcode, and were originally intended to be
time related, hence their names.
Making a page request
A page is requested by writing a series of bytes into the
TXT3.PRD<4:0> SFR which correspond to the number of
the page required. The bytes written into TXT3 are stored
in a RAM with an auto-incrementing address. The start
address for the RAM is set using the TXT2.SC<2:0> to
define which part of the page request is being written, and
TXT2.REQ<3:0> is used to define which of the 10 page
requests is being modified. If TXT2.REQ<3:0> is greater
At power-up each page request defaults to any page, hold
on and error check mode 0.
Rolling Headers and Time
When a new page has been requested it is conventional
for the decoder to turn the header row of the display green

and to display each page header as it arrives until the
correct page has been found.
each of blocks 0 to 8 contains a teletext page arranged in
the same way as the basic page memory of the page
device and block 9 contains extension packets. When the
TXT1.EXT PKT OFF bit is logic 1, no extension packets
are captured and block 9 of the memory is used to store
another page. The number of the memory block into which
a page is written corresponds to the page request number
which resulted in the capture of the page.
Packet 0, the page header, is split into 2 parts when it is
written into the text memory. The first 8 bytes of the header
contain control and addressing information. They are
Hamming decoded and written into columns 0 to 7 of row
25. Row 25 also contains the magazine number of the
acquired page and the PBLF flag but the last 14 bytes are
unused and may be used by the software, if necessary.
When a page request is changed (i.e.: when the TXT3
SFR is written to) a flag (PBLF) is written into bit 5, column
9, row 25 of the corresponding block of the page memory.
The state of the flag for each block is updated every TV
line, if it is set for the current display block, the acquisition
section writes all valid page headers which arrive into the
display block and automatically writes an alpha-numerics
green character into column 7 of row 0 of the display block
every TV line.
When a requested page header is acquired for the first
time, rows 1 to 23 of the relevant memory block are
cleared to space, i.e.: have 20h written into every column,
before the rest of the page arrives. Row 24 is also cleared
if the TXT0.X24 POSN bit is set. If the TXT1.EXT PKT OFF
bit is set the extension packets corresponding to the page
are also cleared.
The last 8 characters of the page header are used to
provide a time display and are always extracted from every
valid page header as it arrives and written into the display
block
The TXT0. DISABLE HEADER ROLL bit prevents any
data being written into row 0 of the page memory except
when a page is acquired off air i.e.: rolling headers and
time are not written into the memory. The TXT1.ACQ OFF
bit prevents any data being written into the memory by the
teletext acquisition section.
Row 25 Data Contents
The Hamming error flags are set if the on-board 8/4
Hamming checker detects that there has been an
incorrectable (2 bit) error in the associated byte. It is
possible for the page to still be acquired if some of the
page address information contains incorrectable errors if
that part of the page request was a 'don't care'. There is no
error flag for the magazine number as an incorrectable
error in this information prevents the page being acquired.
The interrupted sequence (C9) bit is automatically dealt
with by the acquisition section so that rolling headers do
not contain a discontinuity in the page number sequence.
The magazine serial (C11) bit indicates whether the
transmission is a serial or a parallel magazine
transmission. This affects the way the acquisition section
operates and is dealt with automatically.
When a parallel magazine mode transmission is being
received only headers in the magazine of the page
requested are considered valid for the purposes of rolling
headers and time. Only one magazine is used even if don't
care magazine is requested. When a serial magazine
mode transmission is being received all page headers are
considered to be valid.
The newsflash (C5), subtitle (C6), suppress header (C7),
inhibit display (C10) and language control (C12 to 14) bits
are dealt with automatically by the display section,
described below.
Error Checking
The update (C8) bit has no effect on the hardware. The
remaining 32 bytes of the page header are parity checked
and written into columns 8 to 39 of row 0. Bytes which pass
the parity check have the MSB set to 0 and are written into
the page memory. Bytes with parity errors are not written
into the memory.
Before teletext packets are written into the page memory
they are error checked. The error checking carried out
depends on the packet number, the byte number, the error
check mode bits in the page request data and the TXT1.8
BIT bit.
If an incorrectable error occurs in one of the Hamming
checked addressing and control bytes in the page header
or in the Hamming checked bytes in packet 8/30, bit 4 of
the byte written into the memory is set, to act as an error
flag to the software. If incorrectable errors are detected in
any other Hamming checked data the byte is not written
into the memory.
Inventory Page
If the TXT0.INV on bit is 1, memory block 8 is used as an
inventory page. The inventory page consists of two tables,
- the Transmitted Page Table (TPT) and the subtitle page
table (SPT).
In each table, every possible combination of the page tens
and units digit, 00 to FFh, is represented by a byte. Each
bit of these bytes corresponds to a magazine number so
each page number, from 100 to 8FF, is represented by a
bit in the table.The bit for a particular page in the TPT is set

setting of the TXT1. 8 BIT bit and the error checking control
bits in the page request data and is the same as that
applied to the data written into the same memory location
in the 625 line format.
The rolling time display (the last 8 characters in row 0) is
taken from any packets X/1/1, 2 or 3 received. In parallel
magazine mode only packets in the correct magazine are
used for rolling time. Packet number X/1/0 is ignored.
The tabulation bit is also used with extension packets. The
first 8 data bytes of packet X/1/24 are used to extend the
Fastext prompt row to 40 characters. These characters are
written into whichever part of the memory the packet 24 is
being written into (determined by the ‘X24 Posn’ bit).
Packets X/0/27/0 contain 5 Fastext page links and the link
control byte and are captured, Hamming checked and
stored by in the same way as are packets X/27/0 in 625
line text. Packets X/1/27/0 are not captured.
Packet 26 Processing
One of the uses of packet 26 is to transmit characters
which are not in the basic teletext character set. The family
automatically decodes packet 26 data and, if a character
corresponding to that being transmitted is available in the
character set, automatically writes the appropriate
character code into the correct location in the teletext
memory. This is not a full implementation of the packet 26
specification allowed for in level 2 teletext, and so is often
referred to as level 1.5.
Because there are only 2 magazine bits in 525 line text,
packets with the magazine bits all set to 0 are referred to
as being in magazine 4. Therefore, the broadcast service
data packet is packet 4/30, rather than packet 8/30. As in
625 line text, the first 20 bytes of packet 4/30 contain
encoded data which is decoded in the same way as that in
packet 8/30. The last 12 bytes of the packet contains half
of the parity encoded status message. Packet 4/0/30
contains the first half of the message and packet 4/1/30
contains the second half. The last 4 bytes of the message
are not written into memory. The first 20 bytes of the each
version of the packet are the same so they are stored
whenever either version of the packet is acquired.
In 525 line text each packet 26 only contains ten 24/18
Hamming encoded data triplets, rather than the 13 found
in 625 line text. The tabulation bit is used as an extra bit
(the MSB) of the designation code, allowing 32 packet 26s
to be transmitted for each page. The last byte of each
packet 26 is ignored.
By convention, the packets 26 for a page are transmitted
before the normal packets. To prevent the default
character data over writing the packet 26 data the device
incorporates a mechanism which prevents packet 26 data
from being overwritten. This mechanism is disabled when
the Spanish national option is detected as the Spanish
transmission system sends even parity (i.e. incorrect)
characters in the basic page locations corresponding to
the characters sent via packet 26 and these will not over
write the packet 26 characters anyway. The special
treatment of Spanish national option is prevented if
TXT12. ROM VER R4 is logic 0 or if the TXT8.DISABLE
SPANISH is set.
Packet 26 data is processed regardless of the TXT1. EXT
PKT OFF bit, but setting theTXT1.X26 OFF disables
packet 26 processing.
The TXT8. Packet 26 received bit is set by the hardware
whenever a character is written into the page memory by
the packet 26 decoding hardware. The flag can be reset by
writing a 0 into the SFR bit.
FASTEXT DETECTION
When a packet 27, designation code 0 is detected,
whether or not it is acquired, the TXT13. FASTEXT bit is
set. If the device is receiving 525 line teletext, a packet
X/0/27/0 is required to set the flag. The flag can be reset
by writing a 0 into the SFR bit.
525 WST
The 525 line format is similar to the 625 line format but the
data rate is lower and there are less data bytes per packet
(32 rather than 40). There are still 40 characters per
display row so extra packets are sent each of which
contains the last 8 characters for four rows. These packets
can be identified by looking at the ‘tabulation bit’ (T), which
replaces one of the magazine bits in 525 line teletext.
When an ordinary packet with T = 1 is received, the
decoder puts the data into the four rows starting with that
corresponding to the packet number, but with the 2 LSBs
set to 0. For example, a packet 9 with T = 1 (packet X/1/9)
contains data for rows 8, 9, 10 and 11. The error checking
carried out on data from packets with T = 1 depends on the
BROADCAST SERVICE DATA DETECTION
When a packet 8/30 is detected, or a packet 4/30 when the
device is receiving a 525 line transmission, the TXT13.

teletext decoder is error checked and stored in row 25,
block 9 of the basic page memory. The device
automatically detects whether teletext or VPS is being
transmitted on this line and decodes the data
appropriately.
DISPLAY
The display section is based on the requirements for a
Level 1.5 WST Teletext and US Closed Caption. There are
some enhancements for use with locally generated
On-Screen Displays.
The display section reads the contents of the Display
memory and interprets the control/character codes. Using
this information and other global settings, the display
produces the required RGB signals and Video/Data (Fast
Blanking) signal for the TV signal processing.
The display is synchronised to the TV signal processing by
way of Horizontal and Vertical sync signals generated
within TDA955x/6x/8x. From these signals all display
timings are derived.

Display Features
• Teletext and Enhanced OSD modes
• Level 1.5 WST features
• US Closed Caption Features
• Serial and Parallel Display Attributes
WSS ACQUISITION
The Wide Screen Signalling data transmitted on line 23
gives information on the aspect ratio and display position
of the transmitted picture, the position of subtitles and on
the camera/film mode. Some additional bits are reserved
for future use. A total of 14 data bits are transmitted. All of
the available data bits transmitted by the Wide Screen
Signalling signal are captured and stored in SFRs WSS1,
WSS2 and WSS3. The bits are stored as groups of related
bits and an error flag is provided for each group to indicate
when a transmission error has been detected in one or
more of the bits in the group. Wide screen signalling data
is only acquired when the TXT8.WSS ON bit is set. The
TXT8.WSS RECEIVED bit is set by the hardware
whenever wide screen signalling data is acquired. The flag
can be reset by writing a 0 into the SFR bit.

FLASH
Flashing causes the foreground colour pixel to be
displayed as the background pixels.The flash frequency is
controlled by software setting and resetting display
register REG0: Status at the appropriate interval.
CC: This attribute is valid from the time set (see Table 18)
until the end of the row or until otherwise modified.
TXT: This attribute is set by the control character ‘flash’
(08h) and remains valid until the end of the row or until
reset by the control character ‘steady’ (09h).
(0Eh/BEh/0Fh/Bfh) activates quadruple width characters,
provided quadruple width characters are enabled by
TXT4.Quad Width Enable. Three vertical sizes are
available normal(x1),double(x2),quadruple(x4). The
control characters ‘normal size’ (0Ch/BCh) enable normal
size, the ‘double height’ or ‘double size’
(0Dh/BDh/0Fh/BFh) enable double height characters.
Quadruple height character are achieved by using double
height characters and setting the global attributes
TXT7.Double Height(expand) and TXT7.Bottom/Top.
If double height characters are used in teletext mode,
single height characters in the lower row of the double
height character are automatically disabled.
BOXES
CC: This attribute is valid from the time set until end of row
or otherwise modified if set with Serial Mode 0. If set with
Serial Mode 1, then it is set from the next character
onwards.
ITALIC
In CC text mode the background colour is displayed
regardless of the setting of the box attribute bit. Boxes take
affect only during mixed mode, where boxes are set in this
mode the background colour is displayed. Character
locations where boxes are not set show video/screen
colour (depending on the setting in the display control
register. REG0: Display Control) in stead of the
background colour.
CC: This attribute is valid from the time set until the end of
the row or otherwise modified. The attribute causes the
character foreground pixels to be offset horizontally by 1
pixel per 4 scan lines (interlaced mode). The base is the
bottom left character matrix pixel. The pattern of the
character is indented as shown in Fig.15.
TXT: Two types of boxes exist the Teletext box and the
OSD box. The Teletext box is activated by the ‘start box’
control character (0Bh), Two start box characters are
required begin a Teletext box, with box starting between
the 2 characters. The box ends at the end of the line or
after a ‘end box’ control character.
TXT mode can also use OSD boxes, they are started using
size implying OSD control chracters(BCh/BDh/BEh/BFh).
The box starts after the control character (‘set after’) and
ends either at the end of the row or at the next size
implying OSD character (‘set at’). The attributes flash,
teletext box, conceal, separate graphics, twist and hold
graphics are all reset at the start of an OSD box, as they
are at the start of the row. OSD Boxes are only valid in TV
mode which is defined by TXT5=03h and TXT6=03h.
SIZE
The size of the characters can be modified in both the
horizontal and vertical directions.
CC: Two sizes are available in both the horizontal and
vertical directions. The sizes available are normal (x1),
double (x2) height/width and any combination of these.
The attribute setting is always valid for the whole row.
Mixing of sizes within a row is not possible.

stored in the character codes 8Xh and 9Xh of the character
table (32 ROM characters), or in the DRCs which overlay
character codes 8Xh and 9Xh. Each special graphics
character uses two consecutive normal characters.
Fringing, underline and overline is not possible for special
graphics characters. Special graphics characters are
activated when TXT21.OSD_PLANE = 1.

appears on is defined by TXT9.R<4:0> and the column is
defined by TXT10.C<5:0>. The position of the cursor can
be fixed using TXT9.CURSOR FREEZE.
If the screen colour is transparent (implicit in mixed mode)
and inside the object the box attribute is set, then the
object is surrounded by video. If the box attribute is not set
the background colour inside the object will also be
displayed as transparent.
CC: The valid range for row is 0 to 15. The valid range for

Character and Attribute Coding
CC MODE
Character coding is split into character oriented attributes (parallel) and character group coding (serial). The serial
attributes take effect either at the position of the attribute (Set At), or at the following location (Set After) and remain
effective until either modified by a new serial attribute or until the end of the row. A serial attribute is represented as a
space (the space character itself however is not used for this purpose), the attributes that are still active, e.g. overline
and underline will be visible during the display of the space. The default setting at the start of a row is:
• 1x size, flash and italics OFF
• overline and underline OFF
• Display mode = superimpose
• fringing OFF
• background colour duration = 0
• end of row = 0
The coding is done in 12 bit words. The codes are stored sequentially in the display memory. A maximum of 768
character positions can be defined for a single display.

Screen and Global Controls
DISPLAY MODES
A number of attributes are available that affect the whole
display region, and cannot be applied selectively to
regions of the display.
CC: When attributes superimpose or when boxing (see
Table 18, Serial Mode 0/1, bit 6) is set, the resulting display
depends on the setting of the following screen control
mode bits in REG0:Display Control.
TV SCAN LINES PER ROW
The number of TV scan lines per field used for each
display row can be defined, the value is independent of the
character size being used. The number of lines can be
either 10/13/16 per display row. The number of TV scan
lines per row is defined TXT21.DISP_LINES<1:0>.
A value of 9 lines per row can be achieved if the display is
forced into 525 line display mode by
TXT17.DISP_FORCE<1:0>, or if the device is in 10 line
mode and the automatic detection circuitry within display
finds 525 line display syncs.

character foreground, within boxed
areas or, background colour.
There are four different character matrices available, these
are 12x10, 12x13, and 12x16. The selection is made using
TXT21.CHAR_SIZE<1:0> and is independent of the
number of display lines per row.
If the character matrix is less than the number of TV scan
lines per row then the matrix is padded with blank lines. If
the character matrix is greater than the number of TV scan
lines then the character is truncated.
Mixed Video
Mixed Video mode displays video at
all locations not covered by
character foreground, within boxed
areas or, background colour.
Table 19 Display Modes
TXT: The display mode is controlled by the bits in the TXT5
and TXT6. There are 3 control functions - Text on,
Background on and Picture on. Separate sets of bits are
used inside and outside Teletext boxes so that different
display modes can be invoked. TXT6 is used if the
newsflash (C5) or subtitle (C6) bits in row 25 of the basic
page memory are set otherwise TXT5 is used. This allows
the software to set up the type of display required on
newsflash and subtitle pages (e.g. text inside boxes, TV
picture outside) this will be invoked without any further
software intervention when such a page is acquired.

Screen Colour
Screen colour is displayed from 10.5 ms to 62.5 ms after
the active edge of the HSync input and on TV lines 23 to
310 inclusive, for a 625 line display, and lines 17 to 260
inclusive for a 525 line display.
The screen colour is defined by REG0:Display Control and
points to a location in the CLUT table. The screen colour
covers the full video width. It is visible when the Full Text
or Mixed Screen Colour mode is set and no foreground or
background pixels are being displayed.

TEXT DISPLAY CONFIGURATION
Two types of area are possible. The one area is static and
the other is dynamic. The dynamic area allows scrolling of
a region to take place. The areas cannot cross each other.
Only one scroll region is possible.
Display Map
The display map allows a flexible allocation of data in the
memory to individual rows.
Sixteen words are provided in the display memory for this
purpose. The lower 10 bits address the first word in the
memory where the row data starts. This value is an offset
in terms of 16-bit words from the start of Display Memory
(8000 Hex). The most significant bit enables the display
Fig.21 Display Map and Data Pointers
when not within the scroll (dynamic) area.
SOFT SCROLL ACTION
The display map memory is fixed at the first 16 words in
the closed caption display memory.
The dynamic scroll region is defined by the REG5:Scroll
Area, REG6:Scroll Range, REG14:Top Scroll line and the
REG8:Status Register. The scroll area is enabled when
the SCON bit is set in REG8: Status.
b11 b10 b9 b8 b7 b6 b5 b4 b3 b2 b1 b0
Pointer to Row Data
The position of the soft scroll area window is defined using
the Soft Scroll Position (SSP<3:0), and the height of the
window is defined using the Soft Scroll Height (SSH<3:0>)
both are in REG6:Scroll Range. The rows that are scrolled
through the window are defined using the Start Scroll Row
(STS<3:0>) and the Stop Scroll Row (SPS<3:0>) both are
in REG5:Scroll Area.
Reserved, should be set to 0
Text Display Enable, valid outside Soft Scroll Area
0 = Disable
1 = Enable
Table 21 Display map Bit Allocation
The soft scrolling function is done by modifying the Scroll
Line (SCL<3:0>) in REG14: Top Scroll Line. and the first
scroll row value SCR<3:0> in REG8:Status. If the number
of rows allocated to the scroll counter is larger than the
defined visible scroll area, this allows parts of rows at the
top and bottom to be displayed during the scroll function.
The registers can be written throughout the field and the
values are updated for display with the next field sync.
Care should be taken that the register pairs are written to
by the software in the same field.
Only a region that contains only single height rows or only
double height rows can be scrolled.

The display consists of the Screen Colour covering the
whole screen and the Text Area that is placed within the
visible screen area. The screen colour extends over a
large vertical and horizontal range so that no offset is
needed. The text area is offset in both directions relative to
the vertical and horizontal sync pulses.
The text area can be defined to start with an offset in both
the horizontal and vertical direction.

display.
ROM ADDRESSING
Three ROM’s are used to generate the correct pixel
information. The first contains the National Option look-up
table, the second contains the Basic Character look-up
table and the third contains the Character Pixel
information. Although these are individual ROM, since
they do not need to be accessed simultaneously they are
all combined into a single ROM unit.
The width of the text area is defined in REG4:Text Area
End by setting the end character value TAE<5:0>. This
number determines where the background colour of the
Text Area will end if set to extend to the end of the row. It
will also terminate the character fetch process thus
eliminating the necessity of a row end attribute. This
entails however writing to all positions.

The vertical offset is set in REG1:Text Position Vertical
Register. The offset value VOL<5:0> is done in number of

These modes allow two colours per character position.
In CC mode two additional character matrices are
available to allow four colours per character: -
(HxVxPlanes) 12x13x2, 12x16x2.
Fig.25 ROM Organisation
The characters are stored physically in ROM in a matrix of
size either 12x10 or 12x16.
CHARACTER SET SELECTION
Four character sets are available in the device. A set can
consist of alphanumeric characters as required by the
WST Teletext or FCC Closed Captioning, Customer
definable On-Screen Display characters, and Special
Graphic characters.
CC:- Only a single character set can be used for display
and this is selected using the Basic Set selection
TXT18.BS<1:0>. When selecting a character set in CC
mode the Twist Set selection TXT18.TS<1:0> should be
set to the same value as TXT18.BS<1:0> for correct
operation.
TXT:- Two character sets can be displayed at once. These
are the basic G0 set or the alternative G0 set (Twist Set).
The basic set is selected using TXT18.BS<1:0>, The
alternative/twist character set is defined by
TXT19.TS<1:0>. Since the alternative character set is an
option it can be enabled or disabled using TXT19.TEN,
and the language code that is defined for the alternative
set is defined by TXT19.TC<2:0>.

Table locations for normal characters
Re-definable Characters
A number of Dynamically Re-definable Characters (DRC) are available. These are mapped onto the normal character
codes, and replace the pre-defined OTP character Rom value.
There are 32 DRCs which occupy character codes 80H to 9FH. Alternatively, These locations can be utilized as 16
special graphics characters. The remapping of the standard OSD to the DRCs is activated when the TXT21.DRCS
ENABLE bit is set. The selection of Normal or Special OSD symbols is defined by the TXT21.OSD PLANES.
Each character is stored in a matrix of 16x16x1 (V x H x planes), this allows for all possible character matrices to be
defined within a single location.

DRCs are defined by writing data to the DRC RAM using
the 80C51 MOVX command. Setting bits 3 to 9 of the first
line of a 12 wide by 16 line character would require setting
the high byte of the 80C51 data pointer to 88H, the low
byte of the 80C51 data pointer to 00H, using the MOVX
command to load address 8800H with data F8H,

Display Synchronization
The horizontal and vertical synchronizing signals from the

inverted before being delivered to the Phase Selector
section.

DEFINING CHARACTERS
A line locked 12 MHz clock is derived from the 12MHz free
running oscillator by the Phase Selector. This line locked
clock is used to clock the whole of the Display block.
The H & V Sync signals are synchronized with the 12 MHz
clock before being used in the display section.
The DRC RAM is mapped on to the 80C51 RAM address
space and starts at location 8800H. The character matrix
is 12 bits wide and therefore requires two bytes to be
written for each word, the first byte (even addresses),
addresses the lower 8 bits and the second byte (odd
addresses) addresses the upper 4 bits.
For characters of 9, 10 or 16 lines high the pixel
information starts in the first address and continues
sequentially for the required number of addresses.
Characters of 13 lines high are defined with an initial offset
of 1 address, this is to allow for correct generation of
fringing across boundaries of clustered characters (see
Fig.27). The characters continue sequentially for 13 lines
after which a further line can again be used for generation
of correct fringing across boundaries of clustered
characters.
Video/Data Switch (Fast Blanking) Polarity
The polarity of the Video/Data (Fast Blanking) signal can
be inverted. The polarity is set with the VDSPOL in REG7:

To take into account the delay between the RGB values
and the VDS signal due to external buffering, the VDS
signal can be moved in relation to the RGB signals. The
VDS signal can be set to be either a clock cycle before or
after the RGB signal, or coincident with the RGB signal.
This is done using VDEL<2:0> in REG15:Configuration.

RGB Brightness Control
This output is intended to act on the TV’s display circuits to
reduce contrast of the video when it is active. The result of
contrast reduction is to improve the readability of the text
in a mixed teletext and video display.
The bits in the TXT5 & TXT6 SFRs allow the display to be
set up so that, for example, the areas inside teletext boxes
will be contrast reduced when a subtitle is being displayed
but that the rest of the screen will be displayed as normal
video.
A brightness control is provided to allow the RGB upper
output voltage level to be modified. The RGB amplitude
may be varied between 60% and 100%.
The brightness is set in the RGB Brightness register as
follows: -
BRI3-0
0 0 0 0
...

CC: This feature is not available in CC mode.
Memory Mapped Registers
The memory mapped registers are used to control the
display. The registers are mapped into the Microcontroller
MOVX address space, starting at address 87F0h and

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION OF VIDEO PROCESSOR
Vision IF amplifier
The nominal frequency of the demodulator is tuned to the
required frequency (4.5/5.5/6.0/6.5 MHz) by means of a
calibration circuit which uses the clock frequency of the
µ-Controller/Teletext decoder as a reference. It is also
possible to frequencies of 4.74 and 5.74 MHz so that a
second sound channel can be demodulated. In the latter
application an external bandpass filter has to be applied to
obtain sufficient selectivity (the sound input can be
activated by the SIF bit in subaddress 28H). The setting to
the wanted frequency is realised by means of the control
bits FMA, FMB and FMC in the control bit 29H.
The vision IF amplifier can demodulate signals with
positive and negative modulation. The PLL demodulator is
completely alignment-free.
The VCO of the PLL circuit is internal and the frequency is
fixed to the required value by using the clock frequency of
the µ-Controller/Teletext decoder as a reference. The
setting of the various frequencies (38, 38.9, 45.75 and
58.75 MHz) can be made via the control bits IFA-IFC in
subaddress 27H. Because of the internal VCO the IF
circuit has a high immunity to EMC interferences.
From the output status bytes it can be read whether the
PLL frequency is inside or outside the window and whether
the PLL is in lock or not. With this information it is possible
to make an automatic search system for the incoming
sound frequency. This can be realised by means of a
software loop which switches the demodulator to the
various frequencies and then select the frequency on
which a lock condition has been found.
QSS Sound circuit
The sound IF amplifier is similar to the vision IF amplifier
and has an external AGC decoupling capacitor.
The single reference QSS mixer is realised by a multiplier.
In this multiplier the SIF signal is converted to the
intercarrier frequency by mixing it with the regenerated
picture carrier from the VCO. The mixer output signal is
supplied to the output via a high-pass filter for attenuation
of the residual video signals. With this system a high
performance hi-fi stereo sound processing can be
achieved.
The deemphasis output signal amplitude is independent of
the TV standard and has the same value for a frequency
deviation of ±25 kHz at the 4.5 MHz standard and for a
deviation of ±50 Khz for the other standards.
In versions with QSS amplifier and mono intercarrier
sound circuit the FM radio mode is available. This mode is
activated by means of the FMR-bit (subaddress 2CH). The
selectivity must be made by means of a SAW filter at the
sound input with a centre frequency of 33.4 MHz for
Europe and 41.25 MHz for the USA. For this application
the IF demodulator must be set to a fixed frequency (42
MHz for Europe and 48 MHz for the USA). The resulting
input frequency for the FM demodulator is then 8.6 MHz for
Europe and 6.75 MHz for the USA. This frequency must be
selected by means of the bits FMA, FMB and FMC (see
table 108).
The AM sound demodulator is realised by a multiplier. The
modulated sound IF signal is multiplied in phase with the
limited SIF signal. The demodulator output signal is
supplied to the output via a low-pass filter for attenuation
of the carrier harmonics. The AM signal is supplied to the
output (AUDOUT/AMOUT) via the volume control.
Switching between the QSS output and AM output is made
by means of the AM bit in subaddress 29H (see also
Table 1).
FM demodulator
Audio circuit and input signal selection
The FM demodulator is realised as narrow-band PLL with
external loop filter, which provides the necessary
selectivity without using an external band-pass filter. To
obtain a good selectivity a linear phase detector and a
constant input signal amplitude are required. For this
reason the intercarrier signal is internally supplied to the
demodulator via a gain controlled amplifier and AGC
circuit. To improve the selectivity an internal bandpass
filter is connected in front of the PLL circuit. This bandpass
filter can be switched off by means of the BPB bit in
subaddress 2CH.
The audio control circuit contains an audio switch with 1
external input and a volume control circuit. The selection
of the various inputs is made by means of the ADX bit. In
various versions the Automatic Volume Levelling (AVL)
function can be activated. The pin to which the external
capacitor has to be connected depends on the IC version.
For the 90° types the capacitor is connected to the EW
output pin. For the 110° types a choice must be made
between the AVL function and a sub-carrier output for
comb filter applications. This choice is made via the
CBM0/1 bits (in subaddress 22H). When the AVL is active
it automatically stabilises the audio output signal to a
certain level.

TDA955X/6X/8X PS/N1 series
It is possible to use the deemphasis pin as additional audio
input. In that case the internal signal must, of course, be
switched off. This can be realised by means of the sound
mute bit (SM in subaddress 29H). When the IF circuit is
switched to positive modulation the internal signal on the
deemphasis pin is automatically muted.
The video ident circuit can be connected to the incoming
‘internal’ video signal or to the selected signal. This ident
circuit is independent of the synchronisation and can be
used to switch the time-constant of the horizontal PLL
depending on the presence of a video signal (via the VID
bit). In this way a very stable OSD can be realised.
The subcarrier output is combined with a 3-level output
switch (0 V, 2.3 V and 4.5 V). The output level and the
availability of the subcarrier signal is controlled by the
CMB1 and CMB0 bits. The output can be used to switch
sound traps etc. It is also possible to use this pin for the
connection of the AVL capacitor or as AM output.
CVBS and Y/C input signal selection
The circuit has 2 inputs for external CVBS signals and one
input can also be used as one Y/C input (see Fig. 27).
It is possible to supply the selected CVBS signal to the
demodulated IF video output pin. This mode is selected by
means of the SVO bit in subaddress 22H. The vision IF
amplifier is switched off in this mode.

Synchronisation circuit
The vertical synchronisation is realised by means of a
divider circuit. The vertical ramp generator needs an
external resistor and capacitor. For the vertical drive a
differential output current is available. The outputs must be
DC coupled to the vertical output stage.
The IC contains separator circuits for the horizontal and
vertical sync pulses and a data-slicing circuit which
extracts the digital teletext data from the analog signal.
The horizontal drive signal is obtained from an internal
VCO which is running at a frequency of 25 MHz. This
oscillator is stabilised to this frequency by using a 12 MHz
signal coming from the reference oscillator of the
µ-Controller/Teletext decoder.
In the types which are intended for 90° picture tubes the
following geometry parameters can be adjusted:
• Horizontal shift
• Vertical amplitude
• Vertical slope
• S-correction
The horizontal drive is switched on and off via the soft
start/stop procedure. This function is realised by means of
variation of the TON of the horizontal drive pulses. In
addition the horizontal drive circuit has a ‘low-power
start-up’ function.
• Vertical shift

The types which are intended to be used in combination
with 110° picture tubes have an East-West control circuit
in stead of the AVL function. The additional controls for
these types are:
Colour decoder
The ICs can decode PAL, NTSC and SECAM signals. The
PAL/NTSC decoder does not need external reference
crystals but has an internal clock generator which is
stabilised to the required frequency by using the 12 MHz
clock signal from the reference oscillator of the
µ-Controller/Teletext decoder.
• EW width
• EW parabola width
• EW upper and lower corner parabola correction
• EW trapezium correction
• Vertical zoom
Under bad-signal conditions (e.g. VCR-playback in feature
mode), it may occur that the colour killer is activated
although the colour PLL is still in lock. When this killing
action is not wanted it is possible to overrule the colour
killer by forcing the colour decoder to the required standard
and to activate the FCO-bit (Forced Colour On) in
subaddress 21H.
• horizontal parallelogram and bow correction.
When the vertical amplitude is compressed (zoom
factor <1) it is still possible to display the black current
measuring lines in the overscan. This function is activated
by means of the bit OSVE in subaddress 26H.
The Automatic Colour Limiting (ACL) circuit (switchable
via the ACL bit in subaddress 20H) prevents that
oversaturation occurs when signals with a high
chroma-to-burst ratio are received. The ACL circuit is
designed such that it only reduces the chroma signal and
not the burst signal. This has the advantage that the colour
sensitivity is not affected by this function.
Chroma, luminance and feature processing
The chroma band-pass and trap circuits (including the
SECAM cloche filter) are realised by means of gyrators
and are tuned to the right frequency by comparing the
tuning frequency with the reference frequency of the
colour decoder. The luminance delay line and the delay
cells for the peaking circuit are also realised with gyrators.
The SECAM decoder contains an auto-calibrating PLL
demodulator which has two references, viz: the divided 12
MHz reference frequency (obtained from the µ-Controller)
which is used to tune the PLL to the desired free-running
frequency and the bandgap reference to obtain the correct
absolute value of the output signal. The VCO of the PLL is
calibrated during each vertical blanking period, when the
IC is in search or SECAM mode.
The circuit contains the following picture improvement
features:
• Video dependent coring in the peaking circuit. The
coring can be activated only in the low-light parts of the
screen. This effectively reduces noise while having
maximum peaking in the bright parts of the picture.
The base-band delay line (TDA 4665 function) is
integrated. This delay line is also active during NTSC to
obtain a good suppression of cross colour effects. The
demodulated colour difference signals are internally
supplied to the delay line.
• Black stretch. This function corrects the black level for
incoming signals which have a difference between the
black level and the blanking level.
• Blue-stretch. This circuit is intended to shift colour near
‘white’ with sufficient contrast values towards more blue
to obtain a brighter impression of the picture.
• Dynamic skin tone (flesh) control. This function is
realised in the YUV domain by detecting the colours
near to the skin tone.

RGB output circuit and black-current stabilization
SOFTWARE CONTROL
In the RGB control circuit the signal is controlled on
contrast, brightness and saturation. The ICs have a linear
input for external RGB/YUV signals. Switching between
RGB and the YUV/YPRPB mode can be realised via the
YUV0/YUV1 bits in subaddress 2BH. The signals for OSD
and text are internally supplied to the control circuit. The
output signal has an amplitude of about 2 V black-to-white
at nominal input signals and nominal settings of the
various controls.
The CPU communicates with the peripheral functions
using Special function Registers (SFRs) which are
addressed as RAM locations. The registers for the
Teletext decoder appear as normal SFRs in the
µ-Controller memory map and are written to these
functions by using a serial bus. This bus is controlled by
dedicated hardware which uses a simple handshake
system for software synchronisation.
For compatibility reasons and possible re-use of software
blocks, the I2C-bus control for the TV processor is
organised as in the stand-alone TV signal processors. The
TV processor registers cannot be read, so when the
content of these registers is needed in the software, a copy
should be stored in Auxiliary RAM or Non Volatile RAM.
The slave address of the TV signal processor is given in
Fig.28.
To obtain an accurate biasing of the picture tube the
‘Continuous Cathode Calibration’ system has been
included in these ICs.
A black level off-set can be made with respect to the level
which is generated by the black current stabilization
system. In this way different colour temperatures can be
obtained for the bright and the dark part of the picture.
In the Vg2 adjustment mode (AVG = 1) the black current
stabilization system checks the output level of the 3
channels and indicates whether the black level of the
highest output is in a certain window (WBC-bit) or below or
above this window (HBC-bit). This indication can be read
from the status byte 01 and can be used for automatic
adjustment of the Vg2 voltage during the production of the
TV receiver. During this test the vertical scan remains
active so that the indication of the 2 bits can be made
visible on the TV screen.

The control circuit contains a beam current limiting circuit
and a peak white limiting circuit. The peak white level is
adjustable via the I2C-bus. To prevent that the peak white
limiting circuit reacts on the high frequency content of the
video signal a low-pass filter is inserted in front of the peak
detector. The circuit also contains a soft-clipper which
prevents that the high frequency peaks in the output signal
become too high. The difference between the peak white
limiting level and the soft clipping level is adjustable via the
I2C-bus in a few steps.
Valid subaddresses: 03H to 2EH, subaddress FE and FF
are reserved for test purposes. Auto-increment mode
available for subaddresses.
During switch-off of the TV receiver a fixed beam current
is generated by the black current control circuit. This
current ensures that the picture tube capacitance is
discharged. During the switch-off period the vertical
deflection can be placed in an overscan position so that
the discharge is not visible on the screen.
A wide blanking pulse can be activated in the RGB outputs
by means of the HBL bit in subaddress 2BH. The timing of
this blanking can be adjusted by means of the bits WBF/R
bits in subaddress 03H.

Note
1. Peripheral current is dependent on external components and voltage levels on I/Os
2. The simplified circuit diagram of the oscillator is given in Fig.29.
A suitable crystal for this oscillator is the Saronix type 9922 520 00169. The nominal tuning of the crystal is important
to obtain a symmetrical catching range for the PLL in the colour decoder. This tuning can be adapted by means of
the values of the capacitors Cx1 and Cx2 in Fig.29. Good results were obtained with capacitor values of 39 pF,
however, for a new application the optimum value should be determined by checking the symmetry of the catching
range of the colour decoder.

Notes
1. When the 3.3 V supply is present and the µ-Controller is active a ‘low-power start-up’ mode can be activated. When
all sub-address bytes have been sent and the POR and XPR flags have been cleared the horizontal output can be
switched-on via the STB-bit (subaddress 24H). In this condition the horizontal drive signal has the nominal TOFF and
the TON grows gradually from zero to the nominal value. As soon as the 8 V supply is present the switch-on procedure
(e.g. closing of the second loop) is continued.
2. On set AGC.
3. This parameter is not tested during production and is just given as application information for the designer of the
television receiver.
4. Loop bandwidth BL = 60 kHz (natural frequency fN = 15 kHz; damping factor d = 2; calculated with top sync level as
FPLL input signal level).
5. The IF-PLL demodulator uses an internal VCO (no external LC-circuit required) which is calibrated by means of a
digital control circuit which uses the clock frequency of the µ-Controller as a reference. The required IF frequency for
the various standards is set via the IFA-IFC bits in subaddress 27H. When the system is locked the resulting IF
frequency is very accurate with a deviation from the nominal value of less than 25 kHz.
6. This parameter is not tested during production but is guaranteed by the design and qualified by means of matrix
batches which are made in the pilot production period.
7. Measured at 10 mV (RMS) top sync input signal.
8. Via this pin both the demodulated IF signal and the selected CVBS (or Y+C) signal can be supplied to the output.
The selection between both signals is realised by means of the SVO bit in subaddress 22H.
9. So called projected zero point, i.e. with switched demodulator.

10. Measured in accordance with the test line given in Fig.36. For the differential phase test the peak white setting is
reduced to 87%.
The differential gain is expressed as a percentage of the difference in peak amplitudes between the largest and
smallest value relative to the subcarrier amplitude at blanking level.
The phase difference is defined as the difference in degrees between the largest and smallest phase angle.
11. This figure is valid for the complete video signal amplitude (peak white-to-black), see Fig.37.
12. The noise inverter is only active in the ‘strong signal mode’ (no noise detected in the incoming signal)
13. The test set-up and input conditions are given in Fig.38. The figures are measured with an input signal of
10 mV RMS. This test can only be carried out in a test set-up in which the test options of the IC can be activated.
This because the IF-AGC control input is not available in this IC.
14. Measured at an input signal of 10 mVRMS. The S/N is the ratio of black-to-white amplitude to the black level noise
voltage (RMS value). B = 5 MHz. Weighted in accordance with CCIR 567.
15. The time-constant of the IF-AGC is internal and the speed of the AGC can be set via the bits AGC1 and AGC0 in
subaddress 28H. The AGC response time is also dependent on the acquisition time of the PLL demodulator. The
values given are valid for the ‘norm’ setting (AGC1-AGC0 = 0-1) and when the PLL is in lock.
16. The AFC control voltage is generated by the digital tuning system of the PLL demodulator. This system uses the
clock frequency of the µ-Controller/Teletext decoder as a reference and is therefore very accurate. For this reason
no maximum and minimum values are given for the window sensitivity figures (parameters M.7.2 and M.7.3). The
tuning information is supplied to the tuning system via the AFA and AFB bits in output byte 02H. The AFC value is
valid only when the LOCK-bit is 1.
17. The reference signal for the I-mixer (frequency 42 or 48 MHz) is internally generated. It is also possible to supply an
external reference signal to the mixer. This external mode is activated by means of the IFE bit, the signal has to be
supplied to the pin which is normally used as the reference signal output of the colour decoder (REFO).
18. The weighted S/N ratio is measured under the following conditions:
a) The vision IF modulator must meet the following specifications:
Incidental phase modulation for black-to-white jumps less than 0.5 degrees.
QSS AF performance, measured with the television-demodulator AMF2 (audio output, weighted S/N ratio) better
than 60 dB (deviation 27 kHz) for 6 kHz sine wave black-to-white modulation.
Picture-to-sound carrier ratio: PC/SC1 = 13 dB (transmitter).
b) The measurements must be carried out with the Siemens SAW filters G3962 for vision IF and G9350 for sound
IF. Input level for sound IF 10 mVRMS with 27 kHz deviation.
c) The PC/SC ratio at the vision IF input is calculated as the addition of the TV transmitter ratio and the SAW filter
PC/SC ratio. This PC/SC ratio is necessary to achieve the S/N(W) values as indicated.

KD = phase detector steepness µA/rad
R = loop filter resistor
CS = series capacitor
CP = parallel capacitor
f0 = natural frequency of PLL
BL−3dB = loop bandwidth for −3dB
υ = damping factor
Some examples for these values are given in table 147
20. Modulation frequency: 1 kHz, ∆f = ± 50 kHz.
21. f = 4.5/5.5 MHz; FM: 70 Hz, ± 50 kHz deviation; AM: 1.0 kHz, 30% modulation.
22. This figure is independent of the TV standard and valid for a frequency deviation of ±25 kHz at a carrier frequency
of 4.5 MHz or a deviation of ±50 kHz at a carrier frequency of 5.5/6.0/6.5 MHz.
23. The deemphasis pin can also be used as additional audio input. In that case the internal (demodulated FM signal)
must be switched off. This can be realised by means of the SM (sound mute) bit. When the vision IF amplifier is
switched to positive modulation the signal from the FM demodulator is automatically switched off. The external signal
must be switched off when the internal signal is selected.
24. Audio input signal 200 mVRMS. Measured with a bandwidth of 15 kHz and the audio attenuator at −6 dB.
25. Audio input signal 1 VRMS and the volume control setting such that no clipping occurs in the audio output.
26. Unweighted RMS value, audio input signal 500 mVRMS, audio attenuator at −6 dB.
27. Audio attenuator at −20 dB; temperature range 10 to 50 °C.
28. In various versions the Automatic Volume Levelling (AVL) function can be activated. The pin to which the external
capacitor has to be connected depends on the IC version. For the 90° types the capacitor is connected to the EW
output pin. For the 110° types a choice can be made between the AVL function and a sub-carrier output / general
purpose switch output. The selection must be made by means of the CMB0 and CMB1 bit in subaddress 22H (see
also table G-1 on page G-9). More details about the sub-carrier output are given in the parameters D.10.
The Automatic Volume Levelling (AVL) circuit stabilises automatically the audio output signal to a certain level which
can be set by means of the volume control. This AVL function prevents big audio output fluctuations due to variation
of the modulation depth of the transmitter. The AVL can be switched on and off via the AVL bit in subaddress 29H.
The AVL is active over an input voltage range (measured at the deemphasis output) of 150 to 1500 mVRMS. The AVL
control curve is given in Fig.39. The control range of +6 dB to −14 dB is valid for input signals with 50% of the
maximum frequency deviation.
29. Signal with negative-going sync. Amplitude includes sync pulse amplitude.
30. This parameter is measured at nominal settings of the various controls.
31. Indicated is a signal for a colour bar with 75% saturation (chroma : burst ratio = 2.2 : 1).

32. The contrast and saturation control is active on the internal signal (YUV) and on the external RGB/YUV input. The
Text/OSD input can be controlled on brightness only. Nominal contrast is specified with the DAC in position 20 HEX.
Nominal saturation as maximum −10 dB.
33. The YUV/YPBPR input signal amplitudes are based on a colour bar signal with 75/100% saturation.
34. When the decoder is forced to a fixed subcarrier frequency (via the CM-bits) the chroma trap is always switched-on,
also when no colour signal is identified. In the automatic mode the chroma trap is switched-off when no colour signal
is identified.
35. Valid for a signal amplitude on the Y-input of 0.7 V black-to-white (100 IRE) with a rise time (10% to 90%) of 70 ns
and the video switch in the Y/C mode. During production the peaking function is not tested by measuring the
overshoots but by measuring the frequency response of the Y output.
36. The ratio between the positive and negative peaks can be varied by means of the bits RPO1 and RPO0 in
subaddress 2EH. For ratios which are smaller than 1.8 the positive peak is not affected and the negative peak is
reduced.
37. The coring can be activated in the low-light part of the picture. This effectively reduces the noise while having
maximum peaking in the bright parts of the picture. The setting the video content at which the coring is active can be
adapted by means of the COR1/COR0 bits in subaddress 2DH.
38. For video signals with a black level which deviates from the back-porch blanking level the signal is “stretched” to the
blanking level. The amount of correction depends on the IRE value of the signal (see Fig.40). The black level is
detected by means of an internal capacitor. The black level stretcher can be switched on and off via the BKS bit in
subaddress 2DH. The values given in the specification are valid only when the luminance input signal has an
amplitude of 1 Vp-p
.
39. The Dynamic Skin Tone Correction circuit is designed such that it corrects (instantaneously and locally) the hue of
those colours which are located in the area in the UV plane that matches to skin tones. The correction is dependent
on the luminance, saturation and distance to the preferred axis. Because the amount of correction is dependent on
the parameters of the incoming YUV signal it is not possible to give exact figures for the correction angle. The
correction angle of 45 (±22.5) degrees is just given as an indication and is valid for an input signal with a luminance
signal amplitude of 75% and a colour saturation of 50%. A graphical representation of the control behaviour is given
in Figure 41 on page 112.
40. Stretching is 50% when the average video content has the level which is chosen with these bits. The stretching varies
from 100% to 0% over an average video range of 25% to 30%.
41. Via the ‘blue stretch’ (BLS bit) function the colour temperature of the bright scenes (amplitudes which exceed a value
of 80% of the nominal amplitude) can be increased. This effect is obtained by decreasing the small signal gain of the
red and green channel signals which exceed the 80% level. The effect is illustrated in Figure 42 on page 113.
42. The slicing level is independent of sync pulse amplitude. The given percentage is the distance between the slicing
level and the black level (back porch). When the amplitude of the sync pulse exceeds the value of 350 mV the sync
separator will slice the sync pulse at a level of 175 mV above top sync. The maximum sync pulse amplitude is 4 Vp-p
.
The vertical slicing level is dependent on the S/N ratio of the incoming video signal. For a S/N ≤ 24 dB the slicing
level is 35%, for a S/N ≥ 24 dB the slicing level is 60%. With the bit FSL (Forced Slicing Level) the vertical slicing
level can be forced to 60%.
43. To obtain a good performance for both weak signal and VCR playback the time constant of the first control loop is
switched depending on the input signal condition and the condition of the POC, FOA, FOB and VID bits in
subaddress 24H. The circuit contains a noise detector and the time constant is switched to ‘slow’ when too much
noise is present in the signal. In the ‘fast’ mode during the vertical retrace time the phase detector current is increased
50% so that phase errors due to head-switching of the VCR are corrected as soon as possible. Switching of the time
constant can be automatically or can be set by means of the control bits.
The circuit contains a video identification circuit which is independent of the first loop. This identification circuit can
be used to close or open the first control loop when a video signal is present or not present on the input. This enables
a stable On Screen Display (OSD) when just noise is present at the input.

To prevent that the horizontal synchronisation is disturbed by anti copy signals like Macrovision the phase detector
is gated during the vertical retrace period so that pulses during scan have no effect on the output voltage. The width
of the gate pulse is about 22 µs. During weak signal conditions (noise detector active) the gating is active during the
complete scan period and the width of the gate pulse is reduced to 5.7 µs so that the effect of noise is reduced to a
minimum.
The output current of the phase detector in the various conditions are shown in Table 148.
44. The ICs have 2 protection inputs. The protection on the second phase detector pin is intended to be used as ‘flash’
protection. When this protection is activated the horizontal drive is switched-off immediately and then switched-on
again via the slow start procedure.
The protection on the EHT input is intended for overvoltage (X-ray) protection. When this protection is activated the
horizontal drive is directly switched-off (via the slow stop procedure).
The EHT protection input can also be used to switch-off the TV receiver in a correct way when it is switched off via
the mains power switch or when the power supply is interrupted by pulling the mains plug. This can be realised by
means of a detection circuit which monitors the main supply voltage of the receiver. When this voltage suddenly
decreases the EHT protection input must be pulled HIGH and then the horizontal drive is switched off via the slow
stop procedure. Whether the EHT capacitor is discharged in the overscan or not during the switch-off period depends
on the setting of the OSO bit (subaddress 25H, D4). See also note 62.
45. The control range indicates the maximum phase difference at the top and the bottom of the screen. Compared with
the phase position at the centre of the screen the maximum phase difference at the top and the bottom of the screen
is ±0.5 µs for both the parallelogram and the bow correction.
46. During switch-on the horizontal drive starts-up in a soft-start mode. The horizontal drive starts with a very short TON
time of the horizontal output transistor, the ‘off time’ of the transistor is identical to the ‘off time’ in normal operation.
The starting frequency during switch-on is therefore about 2 times higher than the normal value. The ‘on time’ is
slowly increased to the nominal value in a time of about 1175 ms (see Fig.45). The rather slow rise of the TON
between 75% and 100% of TON is introduced to obtain a sufficiently slow rise of the EHT for picture tubes with
Dynamic Astigmatic Focus (DAF) guns. When the nominal frequency is reached the PLL is closed in such a way that
only very small phase corrections are necessary. This ensures a safe operation of the output stage.
During switch-off the soft-stop function is active. This is realised by decreasing the TON of the output transistor
complimentary to the start-up behaviour. The switch-off time is about 43 ms (see Fig.45). When the ‘switch off
command’ is received the soft-stop procedure is started after a delay of about 2 ms. During the switch-off time the
EHT capacitor of the picture tube is discharged with a fixed beam current which is forced by the black current loop
(see also note 62). The discharge time is about 38 ms.
The horizontal output is gated with the flyback pulse so that the horizontal output transistor cannot be switched-on
during the flyback time.
47. The vertical blanking pulse in the RGB outputs has a width of 27 or 22 lines (50 or 60 Hz system). The vertical pulse
in the sandcastle pulse has a width of 14 or 9.5 lines (50 or 60 Hz system). This to prevent a phase distortion on top
of the picture due to a timing modulation of the incoming flyback pulse.
48. The timing pulses for the vertical ramp generator are obtained from the horizontal oscillator via a divider circuit.
During TV reception this divider circuit has 3 modes of operation:
a) Search mode ‘large window’.
This mode is switched on when the circuit is not synchronized or when a non-standard signal (number of lines
per frame outside the range between 311 and 314(50 Hz mode) or between 261 and 264 (60 Hz mode) is
received). In the search mode the divider can be triggered between line 244 and line 361 (approximately
45 to 64.5 Hz).

TV signal processor-Teletext decoder with
embedded µ-Controller
TDA955X/6X/8X PS/N1 series
b) Standard mode ‘narrow window’.
This mode is switched on when more than 15 succeeding vertical sync pulses are detected in the narrow window.
When the circuit is in the standard mode and a vertical sync pulse is missing the retrace of the vertical ramp
generator is started at the end of the window. Consequently, the disturbance of the picture is very small. The
circuit will switch back to the search window when, for 6 successive vertical periods, no sync pulses are found
within the window.
c) Standard TV-norm (divider ratio 525 (60 Hz) or 625 (50 Hz).
When the system is switched to the narrow window it is checked whether the incoming vertical sync pulses are
in accordance with the TV-norm. When 15 standard TV-norm pulses are counted the divider system is switched
to the standard divider ratio mode. In this mode the divider is always reset at the standard value even if the vertical
sync pulse is missing.
When 3 vertical sync pulses are missed the system switches back to the narrow window and when also in this
window no sync pulses are found (condition 3 missing pulses) the system switches over to the search window.
The vertical divider needs some waiting time during channel-switching of the tuner. When a fast reaction of the
divider is required during channel-switching the system can be forced to the search window by means of the NCIN bit
in subaddress 25H.
When RGB signals are inserted the maximum vertical frequency is increased to 72 Hz. This has the consequence
that the circuit can also be synchronised by signals with a higher vertical frequency like VGA.
49. Conditions: frequency is 50 Hz; normal mode; VS = 1F.
50. The output range percentages mentioned for E-W control parameters are based on the assumption that 400 µA
variation in E-W output current is equivalent to 20% variation in picture width.
51. The ICs have a zoom adjustment possibility for the horizontal and vertical deflection. For this reason an extra DAC
has been added in the vertical amplitude control which controls the vertical scan amplitude between 0.75 and 1.38
of the nominal scan. At an amplitude of 1.06 of the nominal scan the output current is limited and the blanking of the
RGB outputs is activated. This is illustrated in Fig. 43.
When the vertical amplitude is compressed (zoom factor <1) it is still possible to display the black-current measuring
lines in the vertical overscan. The feature is activated by means of the OSVE-bit in sub-address 26H. Because the
vertical deflection output stage needs some time for the excursion from the top of the picture to the required position
on the screen the vertical blanking is increased when the OSVE-bit is activated. The shape of the vertical deflection
current for a zoom factor of 0.75 with OSVE activated is given in Fig. 44. The exact timing of the measuring pulses
and vertical blanking for the various conditions is given in Fig. 46.
a) The nominal scan height must be adjusted at a position of 19 HEX of the vertical ‘zoom’ DAC.
52. At a chrominance input voltage of 660 mV (p-p) (colour bar with 75% saturation i.e. burst signal amplitude
300 mV (p-p)) the dynamic range of the ACC is +6 and −20 dB.
53. The ACL function can be activated by via the ACL bit in the subaddress 20H. The ACL circuit reduces the gain of the
chroma amplifier for input signals with a chroma-to-burst ratio which exceeds a value of 3.0.
54. This parameter indicates the bandwidth of the complete chrominance circuit including the chrominance bandpass
filter. The bandwidth of the low-pass filter of the demodulator is approximately 1 MHz.
55. The subcarrier output is combined with a 3-level switch output which can be used to switch external circuits like
sound traps etc. This output is controlled by the CMB1 and CMB0 bits in control byte 22H. The subcarrier signal is
available when CMB1/0 are set to 0/1. During the demodulation of SECAM signals the subcarrier signal is only
available during the vertical retrace period. The frequency is 4.43 MHz in this condition. When CMB1/0 are set to 00
in versions for 90° picture tubes (no EW output) the output is high ohmic.
56. Because of the 2-point black current stabilization circuit both the black level and the amplitude of the RGB output
signals depend on the drive characteristic of the picture tube. The system checks whether the returning measuring
currents meet the requirement and adapts the output level and gain of the circuit when necessary. Therefore the
typical value of the black level and amplitude at the output are just given as an indication for the design of the RGB
output stage.

The 2-point black level system adapts the drive voltage for each cathode in such a way that the 2 measuring currents
have the right value. This has the consequence that a change in the gain of the output stage will be compensated
by a gain change of the RGB control circuit. Because different picture tubes may require different drive voltage
amplitudes the ratio between the output signal amplitude and the inserted measuring pulses can be adapted via the
I2C-bus. This is indicated in the parameter ‘Adjustment range of the cathode drive level’.
Because of the dependence of the output signal amplitude on the application the soft clipping limiting has been
related to the input signal amplitude.
57. The alignment system for the Vg2 voltage of the picture tube can be activated by means of the AVG bit. In that
condition a certain black level is inserted at the RGB outputs during a few lines. The value of this level can be
adjusted by means of the brightness control DAC. An automatic adjustment of the Vg2 of the picture tube can be
realised by using the WBC and HBC bits in output byte 01. For a black level feedback current between 12 and 20 µA
the WBC = 1, for a higher or lower current WBC = 0. Whether the current is too high or too low can be found from
the HBC bit. The indication of these bits can be made visible on the screen via OSD so that this alignment procedure
can also be used for service purposes.
58. When the reproduction of 4 : 3 pictures on a 16 : 9 picture tube is realised by means of a reduction of the horizontal
scan amplitude the edges of the picture may slightly be disturbed. This effect can be prevented by adding an
additional blanking to the RGB signals. The blanking pulse is derived form the horizontal oscillator and is directly
related to the incoming video signal (independent of the flyback pulse). This blanking is activated with the HBL bit.
The width of the blanking can be set by means of the bits WBF3-WBF0 (start of blanking) and WBR3-WBR0 (end of
blanking) in subaddress 03H (see Fig.48).
59. Signal-to-noise ratio (S/N) is specified as peak-to-peak signal with respect to RMS noise (bandwidth 5 MHz).
60. This is a current input. The timing of the measuring pulses and the vertical blanking for the 50/60 Hz standard are
given in Fig.46
The start-up procedure is as follows.
When the TV receiver is switched-on the RGB outputs are blanked and the black-current loop will try to adjust the
picture tube to the right bias levels. The RGB drive signals are switched-on as soon as the black current loop is
stabilised. This results in the shortest switch-on time.
When this switch-on system results in a visible disturbance of the picture it is possible to add a further switch-on delay
via a software routine. In that case the RGB outputs must be blanked by means of the RBL bit. As soon as the black
current loop is stabilised the BCF-bit is set to 0 (output byte 01). This information can then be used to switch-on the
RGB outputs with some additional delay.
61. The vertical guard function has been combined with the black current measuring input. For a reliable operation of the
protection system and to avoid that the black current stabilization system is disturbed the end of the protection pulse
during normal operation should not overlap the measuring pulses (see also Fig.46). Therefore this pulse must end
before line 14.
62. During switch-off the magnitude of the discharge current of the picture tube is controlled by the black current loop.
Dependent on the setting of the OSO bit the vertical scan can be stopped in an overscan position during that time so
that the discharge is not visible on the screen. The switch-off procedure is as follows:
a) When the switch-off command is received the RGB outputs are blanked for a time of about 2 ms.
b) If OSO = 1 the vertical scan is placed in an overscan position
c) If OSO = 0 the vertical deflection will keep running during the switch-off time
d) The soft-stop procedure is started with a reduction of the TON of the output stage from nominal to zero
e) The fixed beam current is forced via the black current loop
The soft-stop time has a value of 43 ms, the fixed beam current is flowing during a time of 38 ms.

63. The control circuit contains a Peak White Limiting (PWL) circuit and a soft clipper.
a) The detection level of the PWL is adjustable via the I2C-bus and has a control range between 0.55 and
0.85 VBL-WH (this amplitude is related to the CVBS/Y input signal (typical amplitude 1.0 VBL-WH) at maximum
contrast setting). The high frequency components of the video signal are suppressed so that they do not activate
the limiting action. The contrast reduction of the PWL is obtained by discharging the capacitor of the beam current
limiting input.
b) In addition to the PWL circuit the IC contains a soft clipper function which limits the high frequency signals when
they exceed the peak white limiting level. The difference between the peak white limiting level and the soft clipping
level is adjustable via the I2C-bus and can be varied between 0 and 10% in 3 steps (soft clipping level equal or
higher than the PWL level). It is also possible to switch-off the soft clipping function.
64. The soft clipper gain reduction is measured by applying a sawtooth signal with rising slope and 0.7 VBL-WH at the
CVBS input. To prevent the beam current limiter from operating a DC voltage of 3.5V must be applied to BCLIN pin.
The contrast is set at the maximum value, the PWL (peak white limiting) level at the minimum value, and the soft
clipping level is set at 0% above the PWL level (SOC10=00). The tangents of the sawtooth waveform at one of the
RGB outputs is now determined at begin and end of the sawtooth. The soft clipper gain reduction is defined as the
ratio of the slopes of the tangents for black and white, see Fig.47.

In order to obtain correct tracking of the vertical and

Example: With Vref = 3.9 V; Rc = 39 kΩ and Vscan = 120 V
then REW = 68 kΩ.
Resistor REW determines the gain of the EW output stage.
Resistor Rc determines the reference current for both the
vertical sawtooth generator and the geometry processor.
The preferred value of Rc is 39 kΩ which results in a

Adjustment of geometry control parameters
For adjustment of the vertical shift and vertical slope
independent of each other, a special service blanking
mode can be entered by setting the SBL bit HIGH. In this
mode the RGB-outputs are blanked during the second half
of the picture. There are 2 different methods for alignment
of the picture in vertical direction. Both methods make use
of the service blanking mode.
The deflection processor offers 5 control parameters for
picture alignment, viz:
• S-correction
• vertical amplitude
• vertical slope
• vertical shift
The first method is recommended for picture tubes that
have a marking for the middle of the screen. With the
vertical shift control the last line of the visible picture is
positioned exactly in the middle of the screen. After this
adjustment the vertical shift should not be changed. The
top of the picture is placed by adjustment of the vertical
amplitude, and the bottom by adjustment of the vertical
slope.
• horizontal shift.
The 110° types offer in addition:
• EW width
• EW parabola width
• EW upper/lower corner parabola
• EW trapezium correction.
• Vertical zoom
The second method is recommended for picture tubes that
have no marking for the middle of the screen. For this
method a video signal is required in which the middle of the
picture is indicated (e.g. the white line in the circle test
pattern). With the vertical slope control the beginning of the
blanking is positioned exactly on the middle of the picture.
Then the top and bottom of the picture are placed
symmetrical with respect to the middle of the screen by
adjustment of the vertical amplitude and vertical shift.
After this adjustment the vertical shift has the right setting
and should not be changed.
• Horizontal parallelogram and bow correction for some
versions in the range
It is important to notice that the ICs are designed for use
with a DC-coupled vertical deflection stage. This is the
reason why a vertical linearity alignment is not necessary
(and therefore not available).
For a particular combination of picture tube type, vertical
output stage and EW output stage it is determined which
are the required values for the settings of S-correction, EW
parabola/width ratio and EW corner/parabola ratio. These
parameters can be preset via the I2C-bus, and do not need
any additional adjustment. The rest of the parameters are
preset with the mid-value of their control range (i.e. 1FH),
or with the values obtained by previous TV-set
adjustments.
If the vertical shift alignment is not required VSH should be
set to its mid-value (i.e. VSH = 1F). Then the top of the
picture is placed by adjustment of the vertical amplitude
and the bottom by adjustment of the vertical slope. After
the vertical picture alignment the picture is positioned in
the horizontal direction by adjustment of the EW width and
the horizontal shift. Finally (if necessary) the left- and
right-hand sides of the picture are aligned in parallel by
adjusting the EW trapezium control.
The vertical shift control is meant for compensation of
off-sets in the external vertical output stage or in the
picture tube. It can be shown that without compensation
these off-sets will result in a certain linearity error,
especially with picture tubes that need large S-correction.
The total linearity error is in first order approximation
proportional to the value of the off-set, and to the square of
the S-correction needed. The necessity to use the vertical
shift alignment depends on the expected off-sets in vertical
output stage and picture tube, on the required value of the
S-correction, and on the demands upon vertical linearity.
To obtain the full range of the vertical zoom function the
adjustment of the vertical geometry should be carried out
at a nominal setting of the zoom DAC at position 19 HEX.

SOLDERING
Introduction
Reflow soldering requires solder paste (a suspension of
fine solder particles, flux and binding agent) to be applied
to the printed-circuit board by screen printing, stencilling or
pressure-syringe dispensing before package placement.
There is no soldering method that is ideal for all IC
packages. Wave soldering is often preferred when
through-hole and surface mounted components are mixed
on one printed-circuit board. However, wave soldering is
not always suitable for surface mounted ICs, or for
printed-circuits with high population densities. In these
situations reflow soldering is often used.
Several methods exist for reflowing; for example,
infrared/convection heating in a conveyor type oven.
Throughput times (preheating, soldering and cooling) vary
between 50 and 300 seconds depending on heating
method. Typical reflow peak temperatures range from
215 to 250 °C.
This text gives a very brief insight to a complex technology.
A more in-depth account of soldering ICs can be found in
our “IC package Databook” (order code 9398 652 90011).
WAVE SOLDERING
Wave soldering is not recommended for QFP packages.
This is because of the likelihood of solder bridging due to
closely-spaced leads and the possibility of incomplete
solder penetration in multi-lead devices.
SDIP
SOLDERING BY DIPPING OR BY WAVE
The maximum permissible temperature of the solder is
260 °C; solder at this temperature must not be in contact
with the joint for more than 5 seconds. The total contact
time of successive solder waves must not exceed
5 seconds.
If wave soldering cannot be avoided, for QFP
packages with a pitch (e) larger than 0.5 mm, the
following conditions must be observed:
• A double-wave (a turbulent wave with high upward
pressure followed by a smooth laminar wave)
soldering technique should be used.
The device may be mounted up to the seating plane, but
the temperature of the plastic body must not exceed the
specified maximum storage temperature (Tstg max). If the
printed-circuit board has been pre-heated, forced cooling
may be necessary immediately after soldering to keep the
temperature within the permissible limit.
• The footprint must be at an angle of 45° to the board
direction and must incorporate solder thieves
downstream and at the side corners.
During placement and before soldering, the package must
be fixed with a droplet of adhesive. The adhesive can be
applied by screen printing, pin transfer or syringe
dispensing. The package can be soldered after the
adhesive is cured.
REPAIRING SOLDERED JOINTS
Apply a low voltage soldering iron (less than 24 V) to the
lead(s) of the package, below the seating plane or not
more than 2 mm above it. If the temperature of the
soldering iron bit is less than 300 °C it may remain in
contact for up to 10 seconds. If the bit temperature is
between 300 and 400 °C, contact may be up to 5 seconds.
Maximum permissible solder temperature is 260 °C, and
maximum duration of package immersion in solder is
10 seconds, if cooled to less than 150 °C within
6 seconds. Typical dwell time is 4 seconds at 250 °C.
A mildly-activated flux will eliminate the need for removal
of corrosive residues in most applications.
QFP
REFLOW SOLDERING
REPAIRING SOLDERED JOINTS
Reflow soldering techniques are suitable for all QFP
packages.
Fix the component by first soldering two diagonally-
opposite end leads. Use only a low voltage soldering iron
(less than 24 V) applied to the flat part of the lead. Contact
time must be limited to 10 seconds at up to 300 °C. When
using a dedicated tool, all other leads can be soldered in
one operation within 2 to 5 seconds between
270 and 320 °C.
The choice of heating method may be influenced by larger
plastic QFP packages (44 leads, or more). If infrared or
vapour phase heating is used and the large packages are
not absolutely dry (less than 0.1% moisture content by
weight), vaporization of the small amount of moisture in
them can cause cracking of the plastic body. For details,
refer to the Drypack information in our “Quality Reference
Handbook” (order code 9397 750 00192).
