Its 110 MHz conversion rate can support display resolution of up to 1280x1024 at 60Hz refresh rate. The AL875 accepts 0.6~2.0V analog input range without using pre-amplifiers which may reduce the overall S/N ratio. Digitized data is piped at the full clock rate to the 24-bit output port. The AL875 uses 3.3V power with 5V tolerant I/O and low power dissipation. The sampling clock is provided by an external clock source, usually a PLL, which multiplies the frequency of the input reference clock (usually a HSYNC signal) to generate the sampling clock. The AL875 provides a programmable PLL divider up to 4096. In addition, the input active horizontal and vertical starting and ending positions can be detected to ensure that the whole picture fits into the displayable region of the screen. Through an I2C interface, the AL875 is fully programmable to support various graphic resolutions. Analog graphic/video signals such as RGB, YCbCr and YPbPr can be digitized by the AL875. The digitized data can then be processed by the AL250/251 line doubler, AL300 LCD controller, or other proprietary designs for various applications.
