3. Working principle analysis of the unit 1. NTSC/ATSC signal flow: Antenna reception NTSC/ATSC signal will be send to tuner U32, t h e n T u n e r w i l l b e demodulating and output differential IF+ IF- signal . These differential IF+ IF- signal will send to the master control IC U1 to video/MPEGII decode, de- interlace and scaler, then output LVDS level drive for panel display.
