ADC100 - Faraday Technology

ADC-100 RANGE
VIDEO FRONT-END MODULES
The ADC-100 range converts analogue video in various formats to 10 or 12 bit parallel digital
video. The range provides a complete front end solution for the digitising of high quality
component, composite or s-video. The module incorporates a tightly specified anti-aliasing filter, an
A-D converter and a digital filter all on a board measuring no more than 1044mm2 (1.65sq in).

Technical Description
The ADC-100 range of modules are a complete front end solution for digitising analogue video.
They comprise all buffering and filtering components required - allowing the user to connect
directly to the video source. A dc clamp is provided to ensure that the black level is accurately set
before being presented to the A-D converter. The modules utilise 2x oversampling to minimise the
size of the filter components and achieve high performance. The subsequent data is decimated by
high performance low pass digital filters to provide output data with standard sampling rates.
All this is achieved transparently to the user; the only control signals required are a back porch
clamp signal, a sync pulse to align the digital filter and an appropriate clock.
For further details of the digital filter functionality consult Fairchild datasheet TMC2242.

Note: The ADC-122R uses the TMC2242C digital filter which features a double delay mode enabling the luminance
module (fs = 27 MHz) to output data synchronously with the colour difference modules (fs = 13.5 MHz). This
eliminates the need for a digital delay of the luminance data by 34 clock cycles. For further information consult
Fairchild datasheet TMC2242C.
An absolute delay difference of 37 ns exists between the ADC-122R and ADC-121R due to the differences in
the analogue filters.

Note: PROVISIONAL DATA
The modules are fitted with a high performance 10-bit analogue to digital converter as standard (Rsuffix) but they are also available with a 12-bit analogue converter (B suffix)
Devices are normally supplied with a Fairchild half band filter. The units can be optionally supplied
with other compatible half band filters, or with no digital filter at the customers request.
Application Notes
The ADC modules incorporate a clamp circuit which must be fed with a back porch signal derived
on the users pcb. This can easily be generated using standard sync separators.
The user has control over digital filter inputs DEC_N, OE_N and SYNC appropriately. These inputs
allow the user to synchronise the decimation of pixel data and multiplex the outputs from modules.
For further details the user should consult the Fairchild datasheet TMC2242.
The insertion delay difference between the component modules ADC122R and ADC121R can be
eliminated by latching the Luminance data for 1 clock cycle within the application.
Note: This product is Aqueous Washable.
