Teletext Path
In Pixel Plus and Digital Crystal Clear models, which have an
ADC (B18) and Columbus 3D combfilter (B19), the digital input
of the scaler is used for the digital video signal (Columbus
output), whereas the analogue RGB input input of the scaler is
used for teletext. This means that no mixed mode (video plus
teletext simultaneously) is possible. In Crystal Clear models,
which do not have an ADC and Columbus, the analogue RGB
input of scaler is used for both video and teletext (generated by
the Hercules). The digital input of the Scaler is not used in
Crystal Clear TV sets. See also the block diagrams at the
beginning of this chapter. When faultfinding, checking the
teletext path may be useful: if there is sound and teletext, but
no video and user menu (blank screen), the digital path
(Hercules - ADC - Columbus - Scaler) is faulty. If there is sound
but no teletext, the back-end part (Scaler - LCD panel) is faulty.

Features
The Scaler provides several key IC functions:
•
Scaling.
•
Auto-configuration/ Auto-Detection.
•
Various Input Ports:
–
Analog RGB.
–
Video Graphics.
•
Integrated LVDS Transmitter.
•
On-chip Micro-controller
9.7.3
Inputs
Analog RGB
The RGB input is fed to pins B2, C2 and D2 of the Scaler IC
(Genesis GM1501, item 7801, see circuit diagram B8). This
input consists of either the Hercules RGB output or the RGB/
YpbPr input of the VGA connector. The Scaler can switch
between the two signals via the PC_HD_SEL signal and
selection IC SM5301 (see circuit diagram B13).
PC (VGA) Input
The VGA input is processed by the VGA block of the Scaler.
The Scaler supports pixel frequencies up to 165MHz.
YpbPr format is also supported via the VGA interface and
covers a resolution of 480p/560p/720p/1080i.
9.7.4
Output
The Display Output Port provides data and control signals that
permit the Scaler to connect to a variety of display devices
using a TTL or LVDS interface. The output interface is
configurable for single or dual wide TTL/LVDS in 18, 24 or 30-
bit RGB pixels format. All display data and timing signals are
synchronous with the DCLK output clock. The integrated LVDS
transmitter is programmable to allow the data and control
signals to be mapped into any sequence depending on the
specified receiver format.

The audio decoding is done entirely via the Hercules. The IF
output from the Tuner is fed directly to either the Video-IF or the
Sound-IF input depending on the type of concept chosen.
There are mainly two types of decoder in the Hercules, an
analogue decoder that decodes only Mono, regardless of any
standards, and a digital decoder (or DEMDEC) that can decode
both Mono as well as Stereo, again regardless of any
standards.
In this chassis, the analogue decoder is used in two cases:
•
It is used for AM Sound demodulation in the Europe
SECAM LL' transmission.
•
It is used for all FM demodulation in AV-Stereo sets.
Diversity
The diversity for the Audio decoding can be broken up into two
main concepts:
•
The Quasi Split Sound concept used in Europe and some
AP sets.
•
The Inter Carrier concept, used in NAFTA and LATAM.
The UOC-III family makes no difference anymore between
QSS- and Intercarrier IF, nearly all types are software-
switchable between the two SAW-filter constructions.
Simple data settings are required for the set to determine
whether it is using the Inter Carrier or the QSS concept. These
settings are done via the "QSS" and "FMI" bit found in SAM
mode. Due to the diversity involved, the data for the 2 bits are
placed in the NVM location and it is required to write once
during startup.
On top of that, it can be further broken down into various
systems depending on the region. The systems or region
chosen, will in turn affect the type of sound standard that is/are
allowed to be decoded.
•
For the case of Europe, the standard consists of BG/DK/I/
LL' for a Multi-System set. There are also versions of
Eastern Europe and Western Europe set and the standard
for decoding will be BG/DK and I/DK respectively. FM
Radio is a feature diversity for the Europe sets. The same
version can have either FM Radio or not, independent of
the system (e.g. sets with BG/DK/I/LL' can have or not
have FM radio).
•
For the case of NAFTA and LATAM, there is only one
transmission standard, which is the M standard. The
diversity then will be based on whether it has a dBx noise
reduction or a Non-dBx (no dBx noise reduction).
•
For the case of AP, the standard consists of BG/DK/I/M for
a Multi-System set. The diversity here will then depend on
