Data Capture
The Data Capture section takes in the analogue Composite Video and Blanking Signal (CVBS), and from this extracts the
required data, which is then decoded and stored in memory.
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 (MuIVIP). 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 loca-
tions.
