description
The THS8135 is a general-purpose triple high-speed D/A converter optimized for use in video/graphics
applications. The device operates from 3.3-V analog and 1.8-V digital supplies. The THS8135 performance is
assured at a sampling rate up to 240 MSPS. The THS8135 consists of three 10-bit D/A converters and additional
circuitry for bi-level/tri-level sync and blanking level generation. By providing a dc offset for the lowest video
amplitude output in video DAC mode, the device can insert a (negative) bi-level or (negative/positive) tri-level
sync on either only the green/luminance (sync-on-green/sync-on-Y) channel or on all channels for video
applications. A generic DAC mode avoids this dc offset, making this device suitable for non-video applications
as well.
The THS8135 is a footprint-compatible functional upgrade to the THS8133. In addition, the THS8135 allows
a higher update rate for oversampled video digitizing for all PC graphics formats up to UXGA (1600x1200)
resolution at 85 Hz and all practical digital TV formats including HDTV. The support for oversampling
significantly reduces the complexity of the analog reconstruction filter required behind the DAC.
Standard video levels can be generated for the full 10-bit input code range. Alternatively, the same levels can
be reached from a reduced input code range compliant to the video sampling standard ITU-R.BT-601. In that
case, the full-scale range of the DAC is dependent on the RGB or YCbCr color space configuration of the device.
When configured for RGB operation, full video output swing is reached for input codes 64-940 on all channels.
When configured for YCbCr operation, code range 64-940 on Y and code range 64-960 on Cb and Cr channels
generate full output swing using internal amplitude scaling on these color components. The device provides
headroom to accommodate under-/over-shoot outside the ITU-R.BT601 range to allow the generation of
ITU-R.BT601 illegal colors or super-black / super-white levels.
A digital control input for insertion of a reference (blanking) level on the analog outputs is included. The
amplitude of the blanking level is configurable for either RGB or YPbPr component outputs and for full or reduced
input code ranges. The inserted sync output amplitude(s) always has the required 7:3 ratio to the full-scale video
amplitude.
The current-steering DACs can be directly terminated in resistive loads to produce voltage outputs. The device
provides a flexible configuration of maximum output current drive. The devices output drivers have been
specifically designed to produce standard video output levels when directly connected to a single-ended
double-terminated 75-Ω coaxial cable.

description (continued)
The input data format can be either 3x10 bit 4:4:4, 2x10 bit 4:2:2, or 1x10 bit 4:2:2. This enables a direct interface
to a wide range of video DSP/ASICs including parts generating ITU-R.BT656 formatted output data. However,
the THS8135 needs specific input synchronization signals to properly insert a composite sync onto its outputs
as it does not extract embedded SAV/EAV synchronization codes from the ITU-R.BT656 input. Along with other
extra functionality, this feature is available on a derivative device (THS8200).

Blanking control input, active low. A rising edge on CLK latches BLANK. When asserted, the ARPr, AGY, and
ABPb outputs are driven to the blanking level, irrespective of the value on the data inputs. SYNC takes
precedence over BLANK, so asserting SYNC (low) while BLANK is active (low) results in sync generation.
The amplitude of the DAC outputs during BLANK active are determined by the color space and input code
range configurations of the device. BLANK control is available in both video and generic DAC modes.

Clock input. A rising edge on CLK latches RCr0–9, GY0–9, BCb0–9, BLANK, SYNC, and SYNC_T.
In video DAC mode, the M1 and M2 inputs are latched by a rising edge on CLK as well but only when additional
conditions are satisfied as explained in their terminal description.
In generic DAC mode, M1 and M2 are continuously interpreted i.e. independent of additional conditions, to
determine color space and input data formats. This allows easier configuration.

Operation mode control 1.
In video DAC mode, the second rising edge on CLK after a transition on SYNC latches M1. The interpretation
is dependent on the polarity of the last SYNC transition:
SYNC L → H: latched as M1_INT
SYNC H → L: latched as BLNK_INT.
Together with M2_INT, M1_INT configures the device as shown in Table 2 for video DAC mode. BLNK_INT
determines if the device operates with the full- or reduced-scale input code range. Together with the color
space configuration, this sets the amplitude of the blanking level on the analog output(s) as shown in Table 5.
In generic DAC mode, M1 is continuously interpreted as M1_INT, BLNK_INT control is not available and the
device always assumes full-scale input code range for blank level positioning.
M2

I
Operation mode control 2.
In video DAC mode, the second rising edge on CLK after a transition on SYNC latches M2. The interpretation
is dependent on the polarity of the last SYNC transition:
SYNC L → H: latched as M2_INT
SYNC H → L: latched as INS3_INT
Together with M1_INT, M2_INT configures the device as shown in Table 3 for video DAC mode. When
INS3_INT is high, the device inserts sync on all DAC outputs; when low, sync is inserted only on the AGY
output.
In generic DAC mode, M2 is continuously interpreted as M2_INT, INS3_INT control is not applicable, since
sync insertion is not available in generic DAC mode.

see terminal M2) for sync-on-all, are driven to the sync level, irrespective of the values on the data or BLANK
inputs. Therefore, SYNC should remain low for the whole duration of sync, which is in the case of a tri-level
sync both the negative and positive portion. See Figure 10 for timing control. SYNC control is only available in
video DAC mode.

Sync tri-level control, active high. A rising edge on CLK latches SYNC_T. When asserted (high), a positive

than blanking level) is generated when SYNC is low. When generating a tri-level (negative-to-positive) sync,
an L->H transition on this signal positions the start of the positive transition. See Figure 10 for timing control.
SYNC_T is also used to put the device in generic DAC mode: SYNC=H AND SYNC_T = H -> generic DAC
mode. Therefore, the user should always drive SYNC_T low outside the sync period when video DAC mode
operation is intended.

detailed description
The THS8135 is a fast well-matched triple DAC with current outputs optimized for video applications without
sacrificing its usefulness as a general-purpose triple DAC, thanks to a generic DAC mode. For video
applications, the device can embed an analog output (composite) bi-level or tri-level sync on only the
green/luma channel or on all three DAC output channels. The THS8135 offers compatibility with several popular
video data formats and provides standard analog output compliance levels for component video digitized
according to the ITU-R.BT601 sampling standard. The DAC full-scale range is also adjustable.
sync generation
The SYNC and SYNC_T control inputs enable the superposition of an additional current onto the AGY channel
or onto all three channels, depending on the setting of INS3_INT. Using a combination of the SYNC and
SYNC_T control inputs, either bi-level negative going pulses or tri-level pulses can be generated. By driving
these terminals with the correct timing inputs, the user can insert onto the analog output(s) any composite sync
format consisting of horizontal sync, vertical sync, pre- and post-serration, and equalization pulses. Assertion
of SYNC (active low) identifies the sync period, while assertion of SYNC_T (active high) within this period
identifies the positive excursion of a tri-level sync.
blanking generation
The BLANK control input fixes the output amplitude on all channels to the blanking level, irrespective of the value
on the data input ports. The position of the blanking level on each channel and its relation to active video is
different depending on the RGB versus YCbCr color space configuration: bottom-range blanking level for R,
G, B, and Y outputs versus mid-range blanking level for Pb and Pr outputs. This also depends on the full-scale
versus reduced-scale (ITU-R.BT601) input code range configuration: bottom-range blanking levels correspond
to input code 0 when in full-scale, or to code 64 when in reduced-scale input code range configuration;
mid-range blanking levels remain at 512 in all cases.
generic DAC mode versus video DAC mode
In video DAC mode, the device provides additional dc bias on R, G, B, and Y channels to provide headroom
for negative sync insertion, as shown on Figure 1 and Figure 3.
Such bias might be undesirable in applications where no sync embedding is needed, since it causes additional
power consumption and might prevent dc coupling of the DAC outputs. In such cases, only a triple DAC
operation without dc bias (i.e., DAC input code 0 corresponding to 0-V output) might be preferred as there is
no need for sync insertion. Therefore, the THS8135 includes a generic DAC mode that does not add any dc
bias. Sync insertion is not supported in generic DAC mode. Also, in this mode, only full-scale operation is
available. Other features are still available in generic DAC mode: different input data formats, RGB versus
YCbCr color space selection, and blanking level override option.

(ITU-R.BT601)—COMPLIANT FULL SCALE RANGE
SLAS343A – MAY 2001 – REVISED JUNE 2002
generic DAC mode versus video DAC mode (continued)
Because of the eliminated dc bias, the DAC output compliance for full-range video input can be higher in generic
DAC mode: up to 1.286 Vpp at nominal double 75-Ω termination load. This is high enough for the D/A conversion
of composite video (NTSC/PAL/SECAM), where the signal fed to the device contains the complete digital
composite waveform, including sync and color-burst.
Selection between generic DAC versus video DAC mode is controlled through a combination of SYNC and
SYNC_T settings. Since in video DAC mode, SYNC_T only determines the sync polarity, this signal has don’t
care status when no sync insertion takes place i.e., when SYNC is high. The THS8135 uses the logic level on
the SYNC_T input when SYNC is high to enter generic DAC mode: SYNC_T and SYNC are high → generic
DAC mode. Therefore, the user must make sure to keep SYNC_T low outside the sync insertion period (when
SYNC is high) to prevent entering generic DAC mode, when he intends to use the device in video DAC mode.

device configuration using M1 and M2 in video DAC mode
In the video DAC mode, the configuration signals M1 and M2 are both sampled on the second rising edge of
the CLK input signal after a L → H or H → L transition on SYNC. Depending on the polarity of this last transition
on SYNC, M1 and M2 are interpreted differently by the THS8135, as shown in Table 2.
NOTE:
In the THS8133, only M2 is a sampled signal while M1 is continuously interpreted. By doing so here,
the additional input control signal BLNK_INT is generated. See the backward compatibility with the
THS8133 section.

device configuration using M1 and M2 in generic DAC mode
To simplify device configuration in the generic DAC mode, the M1 and M2 configuration pins are continuously
interpreted as M1_INT and M2_INT respectively, i.e., their interpretation is not dependent on the last event on
SYNC and is not only sampled on the second rising CLK edge after a transition on SYNC. BLNK_INT and
INS3_INT controls are not available in generic mode. As a result, in generic DAC mode, the device always
operates with full-scale input range and no sync insertion is available.
M1_INT and M2_INT can be tied high or low externally to determine the input formatter setting and color space
for blank level positions. Blanking override is still available in generic DAC mode using the BLANK input. Generic
DAC mode only disables the dc bias for R, G, B, and Y component outputs.
Table 1 shows all combinations of these control signals. Note that when SYNC is low, it takes precedence over
BLANK.
selection of color space and input formatter configuration (available in video DAC and generic DAC modes)
Input data to the device can be supplied from a 3x10b GBR or YCbCr input port. If the device is configured to
take data from all three channels, the data is clocked in at each rising edge of CLK. All three DACs operate at
the full clock speed of CLK.
In the case of 4:2:2 sampled data (for YCbCr data), the device can be fed over either a 2x10 bit or 1x10 bit
multiplexed input port. An internal demultiplexer routes the input samples to the appropriate DAC: Y at the rate
of CLK, Cb and Cr each at rate of 1/2 CLK.
According to ITU-R.BT-656, the sample sequence is Cb-Y-Cr-Y over a 1x10-bit interface (Y-port). The sample
sequence starts at the first rising edge of CLK after BLANK has been taken high (inactive). Note that in this case
the frequency of CLK is 2x the Y conversion speed and 4x the conversion speed of both Cr and Cb.
In the case of a 2x10 bit input interface, both the Y-port and the Cr-port are sampled on every CLK rising edge.
The Cr-port carries the sample sequence Cb-Cr. The sample sequence starts at the first rising edge of CLK after
BLANK has been taken high (inactive). Note that in this case the frequency of CLK is equal to the conversion
speed of Y and 2x the conversion speed of both Cr and Cb.
Table 4 shows the possible configurations of the input formatter, as determined by the internal M1_INT and
M2_INT signals. The color space selection also determines the position of the blanking level and is explained
in the next section.

selection of full- or reduced-scale ITU-R.BT601 modes (available in video DAC mode only)
In video DAC mode, BLNK_INT sets the blanking level generated on the DAC outputs as shown in Table 5. This
allows imposing a blanking level on the analog outputs corresponding to either full-scale code range or a
reduced-scale code range compliant to ITU-R.BT601. The blanking level is correctly positioned for either RGB
or YCbCr configurations, determined from the M1/M2 setting.
For generic DAC mode, BLNK_INT control is not available and the device always generates an output level
during BLANK low assuming full-scale input code range.

In full-scale range, the DAC is driven with input codes 0-1023 to the desired video level, set by the resistor
connected to the FSADJ terminal (e.g., a full-scale video amplitude of 700 mV when terminated into 37.5 Ω and
when using the nominal RFS value).
In reduced-scale ITU-R.BT601 range, it is the intention that full-scale video amplitude is reached when the
device is driven with digital inputs within the input code range shown in Table 6. Note that the code range is
unequal between RGBY on one hand and CbCr on the other hand. Figure 1 through Figure 4 illustrates the
difference between ITU-R.BT601 reduced-scale and full-scale code range operation. In reduced-range
configuration, the B/Cb and R/Cr components are digitally amplitude scaled internally. Note that there is no
scaling on the G/Y component. Therefore, to accommodate the 700-mV video compliance on all components,
the DAC full-scale output current needs to be increased between full-scale and reduced scale modes by a factor
of 1023/(940-64) by decreasing RFS in that proportion.
This implementation has the advantage of avoiding amplitude scaling on the most critical G/Y component, while
still providing the possibility for instantaneous overshoot/undershoot on the analog component video output
when illegal signals according to ITU-R.BT601, such as super-black or super-white, are applied to the device.

selection of full or reduced-scale ITU.BT601 modes (available in video DAC mode only) (continued)
When using reduced-scale range, the output sync:video amplitude ratio is still 7:3, but now takes into account
the reduced code range, not the full-scale range, to determine this ratio. Therefore, proper sync amplitudes are
preserved in either mode, when the full-scale current is modified as explained higher. When changing DAC
full-scale current using RFS, the sync amplitude level always scales proportionally with the video output
compliance.
Note that even when using reduced-scale range, the midscale blanking level on ABPb and ARPr channels still
corresponds to code 512 = [64+(960-64)/2] when using YCbCr color space configuration. Table 6 shows the
valid reduced input code ranges for RGB and YCbCr operation on each of the input data buses. While the
THS8135 allows reduced-scale code range with RGB data, video systems normally use it only with YCbCr type
data.

DAC operation
The analog output drivers generate a current of which the drive level can be user-modified by choosing an
appropriate resistor value RFS, connected to the FSADJ pin.
All current source amplitudes (video, blanking, and sync) are derived from an internal voltage reference such
that the relative amplitudes of sync, blank, and video are always equal to their nominal relationships.
Figure 1 through Figure 4 show the nominal output voltage levels for full- or reduced-range input code range
configurations on R, G, B, and Y versus Cb and Cr channels.
Note that in full-scale input code range configuration, the blanking level is at 350 mV on all outputs; while in
reduced-scale operation it is at 400 mV on all outputs.
In reduced scale modes, after proper adjustment of RFS, the nominal 700-mV output compliance is reached from
an input code range of only 876 (=940-64) codes on G/Y, and of only 896 (=960-64) codes on R/Pr and B/Pr
output channels. The maximum excursions are ~817mV (= 1023/876 x 700 mV) on G/Y and ~800 mV (=
876/896 x 817 mV) on B/Pb and R/Pr channels. Figure 4 shows that when using reduced-scale input code
range, the blanking level needs to be at 400 mV to accommodate the maximum negative excursion on B/Pr and
R/Pr channels.
The figures also show the excursions for the sync level positions in either full-scale or reduced-scale
configurations. These levels are internally adjusted and assure 300-mV sync excursions when using nominal
termination loads and properly adjusting RFS, as explained before.

output amplitude control
The current drive on all three output channels (including sync) is controlled by a resistor RFS that must be
connected between FSADJ and AVSS. In all operation modes the relative amplitudes of these current drivers
are maintained irrespective of the RFS value, as long as a maximum current drive capability is not exceeded.
Therefore, a 7:3 video to sync ratio is preserved when adjusting RFS.
The sync generator is composed of different current sources that are internally routed to a corresponding DAC
output. Since they are additional to the video DACs, full 10-bit DAC resolution is preserved for video. Depending
on the setting of INS3_INT during SYNC low, the sync current drive is added to either only the green channel
output (sync-on-G/Y) if INS3_INT=L or all three channel outputs (sync-on-all) if INS3_INT=H. Sync insertion
is only available in video DAC mode.
Figure 5 shows the relationship between RFS and the current drive level on each channel for full-range DAC
input. When using reduced-scale range, the codes on the G/Y channel are not internally scaled (only BCb and
RCr channels are scaled). Therefore, the user should increase the DAC full-scale current by decreasing RFS
by a factor of 1023/(940-64) to map the reduced-scale Y input code range to the same output current drive level.
Since these are the current drive levels for the video DACs they do not take into account the additional dc bias
for sync insertion when using video DAC mode. The voltage compliance outputs in Figure 5 assume termination
with a 37.5-Ω resistor.

backward compatibility with the THS8133
power supply
The THS8135 is a functional superset to the THS8133 and is footprint compatible i.e. a board designed for the
THS8133 can also be used with the THS8135. Both devices come in the same package and have identical
pinouts. Only the power supply levels need to be adjusted as shown in Table 7.

device configuration
The THS8135 samples both M1 and M2 on the second rising edge of CLK after a transition on SYNC in video
modes. Depending on the polarity of the transition, M1 is interpreted as either M1_INT or BLK_INT. In the
THS8133 the M1 signal is not sampled but continuously interpreted, and is only interpreted as M1_INT. The
THS8133 does not offer a reduced-scale input code range configuration and therefore does not require
BLNK_INT.
Only when this additional functionality, which is typical for video systems, is desired, a small change in the
configuration of the device is required by supplying a dynamically changing signal on M1, generated in a similar
way as M2, as shown in Table 8.
Note that this backward compatibility is due to the selection of full-scale versus reduced-scale configurations
in Table 5. All configurations that have equal logic levels for BLNK_INT and M1_INT produce full-scale input
code range, which are compatible with the THS8133. This allows the use of a signal tied high or low on M1, as
on the THS8133, for these backward compatible full-scale configurations.

DAC outputs
The position of the blanking levels in the THS8135 differs from the position of the blanking levels in the THS8133.
This is to accommodate both full- and reduced-scale configurations on this device, while the THS8133 only
supported full-scale. When the DAC output is ac-coupled, as is typically the case, there is no change to the
output video waveform. Typically a clamp circuit at the receiving side will restore the signal to the proper dc level.
video DAC vs generic DAC modes
The THS8133 does not offer a generic DAC mode. The THS8135 uses only the same number of control signals
than the THS8133 but additionally introduces a generic video mode by specific use of a don’t care signal
combination of these control signals on the THS8133.
programming example for M2 2
Configuration of the device is normally static in a given application, although it is theoretically possible to
reconfigure the device during operation.
If M2_INT and INS3_INT need to be either low or high, the M2 pin is simply tied low or high. If M2_INT and
INS3_INT need to have different levels, these can be easily derived from the signal on the SYNC pin, as shown
in Table 8 and Figure 6.

Figure 10 shows how to control the SYNC, SYNC_T, and BLANK signals to generate tri-level sync levels and
blanking at the DAC output in video mode. A bi-level (negative) sync can be generated similarly by avoiding the
positive transition on SYNC_T during SYNC low.
Note that on the THS8135 it is required to keep SYNC_T low outside the sync interval in order to avoid entering
the generic DAC mode.
