THEORY OF CIRCUIT OPERATION
OSD mixer
In the OSD mixer block, the AM100 mixes the normal output RGB signal with the
OSD signal. The OSD output data is generated based on the RLOSD G_OSD and
B_OSD pins as well as the OSD Intensity data in EEPROM entry. When the
EN_OSD is active high, the OSD is active, and the AM100 will send the OSD data
to the LCD panel. The OSD has 16 different color schemes based on the
combinations of the three OSD color pins and the OSD Intensity data. When
R_OSD=1, OSD_Intensity=0, the AM100 will output 128 to the output red channel,
R_OUT. When R_OSD=1, and OSD Intensity=1, the AM100 will output 255. The
same scheme is used for G-OSD to G-OUT and for B-OSD to B_OUT.
EEPROM interface
As mentioned in previous sections, the external EEPROM stores much crucial
information for the AM100 internal operations. The AM100 interfaces with the
EEPROM through a 2-wire I'C serial interface. The suggested EEPROM device is
an industry standard serial-interface EEPROM (24x08). The |?C interface scheme
is briefly described here and detail description can be found in many public
literatures.
