  • Page 16: Signal Processing

    SMS 8301A Component Analog Video to Serial Component Digital Converter Signal Processing The three video input channels (Y/G, B-Y/B, R-Y/R) are passed through Analog Processing and Filtering circuitry then applied to the Analog–to–Digital Converter and Digital Filter block. Three A/D converters sample the video at 27MHz and converts it to 10–bit data.
  • Page 17: Timing And Control

    Function Timing and Control The Microcontroller interfaces between front panel controls and the crosspoints and registers of the Digital Matrix and Blanking Gate Limiter and Rounder circuits. The controller also configures the chroma channel low pass filter ASICs and feeds registers which determine the mix coefficients for the Digital Matrix.

  • Page 23: Mii/Beta Format Configuration

    Installation MII/BETA Format Configuration JP102 alters the parameters associated with the BETA and MII input selector switch on the front panel. It provides selection of US (setup 7.5 IRE present) or JAPAN (no setup 0 IRE) versions of the 525 line BETA and MII CAV formats. Figure 4 illustrates the location and settings for JP102.
  • Page 24: Gbr Format Internal/External Sync Selection

    SMS 8301A Component Analog Video to Serial Component Digital Converter GBR Format Internal/External Sync Selection JP103 selects a synchronizing pulse source for the GBR input CAV format, it does not affect the sync source for other CAV input formats. For all other CAV formats, the input Y channel sync is used as a reference regardless of the position of JP103.
  • Page 25: Chroma Filter Selection

    Installation Chroma Filter Selection JP600 selects digital chroma channel low pass filter responses. In the NORMAL position, the chroma channel filter response is very flat and has a rapid roll off at the high frequency cutoff. The fast cutoff of the NORMAL filter can result in some overshoots and ringing on fast waveform edges but provides the best frequency response if the same video must be filtered multiple times.
  • Page 26: External Sync Source

    SMS 8301A Component Analog Video to Serial Component Digital Converter External Sync Source JP900 selects an external sync source. Position A selects the loop through frame reference. Position B selects a terminating reference input used for this module only. NOTE: JP900 does not have to be set unless GBR Format Internal/ External Sync Selection (JP103) is in the External Ref position.
