UNIVERSAL TELETEXT DECODERS ‘EUROTEXT’ ‘EUROTEXT’ CF70200 CF70200 1.0 Description (Continued) The pin out and software commands have been designed to use either UNITEXT or EUROTEXT chips without any modification to the hardware or software, allowing a single, four or an eight page decoder to share the same PCB and controlling software.
UNIVERSAL TELETEXT DECODERS ‘EUROTEXT’ ‘EUROTEXT’ CF70200 CF70200 2.0 PAGE CAPTURE MODES The EUROTEXT decoder can operate in four main modes of operation depending upon the transmitted teletext signal and the controlling microprocessor. These modes are: Normal FLOF Favourite Page In EUROTEXT, the on-chip processor will automatically select the pages to be stored in memory in all modes of operation except Favourite Page mode.

UNIVERSAL TELETEXT DECODERS ‘EUROTEXT’ ‘EUROTEXT’ CF70200 CF70200 2.1 Normal Mode EUROTEXT defaults to Normal Mode on power up and channel change so that this mode is entered for teletext services that do not transmit TOP or FLOF. Row 24 will be generated internally and will display coloured links to the stored pages.
UNIVERSAL TELETEXT DECODERS ‘EUROTEXT’ ‘EUROTEXT’ CF70200 CF70200 2.2 FLOF Mode The FLOF mode can either be selected manually or may be selected automatically by EUROTEXT if it is set to AUTO mode. In AUTO mode, the decoder will select FLOF mode if it has received a valid packet 27 for the display page.

UNIVERSAL TELETEXT DECODERS ‘EUROTEXT’ ‘EUROTEXT’ CF70200 CF70200 5.0 RGB OUTPUTS (continued) The value of the voltage generated across RL is fixed by: 1. The reference circuit 2. The adjustable current source 3. The resistors R and RL. (RGBSET) Minimum and maximum output voltages can be calculated using the following equations: ...
All system timing functions, including the 11.5625 MHz display pixel clock, are produced in the digital PLL & TV sync timing block using the oscillator output from the Texas Instruments CF72306 or CF72416 data slicer. The display sync signals generated are flexible and can be software controlled to provide interlaced or non-interlaced text displays with locked of unlocked field sync.
