EL4584 ® Data Sheet May 9, 2008 Horizontal Genlock, 4FSC Features The EL4584 is a PLL (Phase Lock Loop) sub system, designed for video applications but also suitable for general purpose use up to 36MHz. In video applications, this device generates a TTL/CMOS compatible Pixel Clock (CLK OUT) which is a multiple of the TV horizontal scan rate and phase locked to it. • 36MHz, general purpose PLL FN7174.3 • 4FSC based timing (use the EL4585 for 8FSC) • Compatible with EL4583 sync separator • VCXO, Xtal, or LC tank oscillator • < 2ns jitter (VCXO) The reference signal is a horizontal sync signal, TTL/CMOS format, which can be easily derived from an analog composite video signal with the EL4583 Sync Separator. An input signal to “coast” is provided for applications where periodic disturbances are present in the reference video timing, such as VTR head switching. The Lock detector output indicates correct lock. The divider ratio is four ratios for NTSC and four similar ratios for the PAL video timing standards, by external selection of three control pins. These four ratios have been selected for common video applications including 4FSC, 3FSC, 13.5MHz (CCIR 601 format) and square picture elements used in some workstation graphics. To generate 8FSC, 6FSC, 27MHz (CCIR 601 format) etc. use the EL4585, which includes an additional divide-by-two stage. For applications where these frequencies are inappropriate or for general purpose PLL applications, the internal divider can be bypassed and an external divider chain used. • User controlled PLL capture and lock • Compatible with NTSC and PAL TV formats • 8 pre-programmed TV scan rate clock divisors • Selectable external divide for custom ratios • Single 5V, low current operation • Pb-Free available (RoHS compliant) Applications • Pixel clock regeneration • Video compression engine (MPEG) clock generator • Video capture or digitization • PIP (Picture-in-Picture) timing generator • Text or graphics overlay timing Ordering Information TABLE 1.

PACKAGE POWER DISSIPATION VS AMBIENT TEMPERATURE Block Diagram Description Of Operation The horizontal sync signal (CMOS level, falling leading edge) is input to HSYNC input (pin 10). This signal is delayed about 200ns, the falling edge of which becomes the reference to which the clock output will be locked (see “Timing Diagrams” on page 5 and page 6). The clock is generated by the signal on pin 5, OSC IN. There are 2 general types of VCO that can be used with the EL4584; LC and crystal controlled. Additionally, each type can be either built-up using discrete components, including a varactor as the frequency controlling element, or complete, self contained modules can be purchased with everything inside a metal can. The modules are very forgiving of PCB layout, but cost more than discrete solutions. The VCO or VCXO is used to generate the clock. An LC tank resonator has greater “pull” than a crystal controlled circuit, but will also be more likely to drift over time, and thus will generate more jitter. The “pullability” of the circuit refers to the ability to “pull” the frequency of oscillation away from its center frequency by modulating the voltage on the control pin of a VCO module or varactor, and is a function of the slope and range 7 of the capacitance-voltage curve of the varactor or VCO module used. The VCO signal is sent to a divide by N counter, and to the CLK OUT pin. The divisor N is determined by the state of pins 1, 2 and 16 and is described in Table 2. The divided signal is sent, along with the delayed HSYNC input, to the phase/frequency detector, which compares the two signals for phase and frequency differences. Any phase difference is converted to a current at the charge pump output FILTER (pin 7). A VCO with positive frequency deviation with control voltage must be used. Varactors have negative capacitance slope with voltage, resulting in positive frequency deviation with control voltage for the oscillators in Figures 12 and 13. VCO The VCO should be tuned so its frequency of oscillation is very close to the required clock output frequency when the voltage on the varactor is 2.5V. VCXO and VCO modules are already tuned to the desired frequency, so this step is not necessary if using one of these units. The range of the charge pump output (pin 7) is 0V to 5V and it can source or sink a maximum of about 300µA, so all frequency control FN7174.3 May 9, 2008 EL4584 must be accomplished with variable capacitance from the varactor within this range. Crystal oscillators are more stable than LC oscillators, which translates into lower jitter, but LC oscillators can be pulled from their mid-point values further, resulting in a greater capture and locking range. If the incoming horizontal sync signal is known to be very stable, then a crystal oscillator circuit can be used. If the HSYNC signal experiences frequency variations of greater than about 300ppm, an LC oscillator should be considered, as crystal oscillators are very difficult to pull this far. When HSYNC input frequency is greater than CLK frequency ÷ N, charge pump output (pin 7) sources current into the filter capacitor, increasing the voltage across the varactor, which lowers its capacitance, thus tending to increase VCO frequency. Conversely, filter output pulls current from the filter capacitor when HSYNC frequency is less than CLK ÷ N, forcing the VCO frequency lower. VCO frequency. Modulation will continue until the phase and frequency of CLK ÷ N exactly match the HSYNC input. When the phase and frequency match (with some offset in phase that is a function of the VCO characteristics), the error signal goes to zero, lock detect no longer pulses high, and the charge pump enters a high impedance state. The clock is now locked to the HSYNC input. As long as phase and frequency differences remain small, the PLL can adjust the VCO to remain locked and lock detect remains low. Loop Filter Forcing the clock to be synchronized to the HSYNC input this way allows a lock in approximately 2 H-cycles, but the clock spacing will not be regular during this time. Once the near lock condition is attained, charge pump output should be very close to its lock-on value and placing the device into normal mode should result in a normal lock very quickly. Fast Lock mode is intended to be used where HSYNC becomes irregular, until a stable signal is again obtained. The loop filter controls how fast the VCO will respond to a change in filter output stimulus. Its components should be chosen so that fast lock can be achieved, yet with a minimum of VCO “hunting”, preferably in one to two oscillations of charge pump output, assuming the VCO frequency starts within capture range. If the filter is under-damped, the VCO will over and under-shoot the desired operating point many times before a stable lock takes place. It is possible to under-damp the filter so much that the loop itself oscillates, and VCO lock is never achieved. If the filter is over-damped, the VCO response time will be excessive and many cycles will be required for a lock condition. Over-damping is also characterized by an easily unlocked system because the filter can’t respond fast enough to perturbations in VCO frequency. A severely over-damped system will seem to endlessly oscillate, like a very large mass at the end of a long pendulum. Due to parasitic effects of PCB traces and component variables, it will take some trial and error experimentation to determine the best values to use for any given situation. Use the component tables as a starting point, but be aware that deviation from these values is not out of the ordinary. Fast Lock Mode Fast Lock mode is enabled by either allowing coast to float, or pulling it to mid supply (between 1/3 and 2/3*VCC). In this mode, lock is achieved much faster than in normal mode, but the clock divisor is modified on the fly to achieve this. If the phase detector detects an error of enough magnitude, the clock is either inhibited or reset to attempt a “fast” lock of the signals. Coast Mode Coast mode is enabled by pulling the COAST (pin 9) high (above 2/3*VCC). In coast mode, the internal phase detector is disabled and filter out remains in high impedance mode to keep filter out voltage and VCO frequency as constant as possible. VCO frequency will drift as charge leaks from the filter capacitor, and the voltage changes the VCO operating point. Coast mode is intended to be used when noise or signal degradation results in loss of horizontal sync for many cycles. The phase detector will not attempt to adjust to the resultant loss of signal so that when horizontal sync returns, sync lock can be re-established quickly. However, if much VCO drift has occurred, it may take as long to re-lock as when restarting. External Divide Lock Detect DIV SELECT (pin 8) controls the use of the internal divider. When high, the internal divider is enabled and EXT DIVIDER (pin 13) outputs the CLK out divided by N. This is the signal to which the horizontal sync input will lock. When divide select is low, the internal divider output is disabled, and the external divide becomes an input from an external divider, so that a divisor other than one of the 8 pre-programmed internal divisors can be used. LOCK DETECT (pin 12) will go low when lock is established. Any DC current path from charge pump out will skew EXT DIVIDER relative to HSYNC IN, tending to offset or add to the 200ns internal delay, depending on which way the extra current is flowing. This offset is called static phase error, and is always present in any PLL system. If, when the part stabilizes in a locked mode, lock detect is not low, adding or subtracting from the loop filter series resistor R2 will change this static phase error to allow LDET to go low while in lock. The goal is to put the rising edge of EXT DIVIDER in sync with the falling edge of HSYNC + 200ns (see “Timing Diagrams” on page 5 and page 5). Increasing R2 decreases phase error, while decreasing R2 increases phase error (phase error is positive when EXT DIVIDER lags HSYNC.) Normal Mode Normal mode is enabled by pulling COAST (pin 9) low (below 1/3*VCC). If HSYNC and CLK ÷ N have any phase or frequency difference, an error signal is generated and sent to the charge pump. The charge pump will either force current into or out of the filter capacitor in an attempt to modulate the 8 FN7174.3 May 9, 2008 EL4584 The resistance needed will depend on VCO design or VCXO module selection.

It should be noted that this oscillator configuration is just one of literally hundreds possible, and the configuration shown here does not necessarily represent the best solution for all applications. Crystal manufacturers are very informative sources on the design and use of oscillators in a wide variety of applications, and the reader is encouraged to become familiar with them.

Kd = 300µA/2πrad = 4.77e-5A/rad for the EL4584. 2. The loop bandwidth should be about HSYNC frequency/20, and the damping ratio should be 1 for optimum performance. For our example, ϖn = 15.734kHz/20 = 787Hz≈5000rad/S. 3. N = 910 from Table 2.

KVCO represents how much the VCO frequency changes for each volt applied at the control pin. It is assumed (but probably is not) linear about the lock point (2.5V). Its value depends on the VCO configuration and the varactor transfer function CV = F(VC), where VC is the reverse bias control voltage, and CV is varactor capacitance. Since F(VC) is nonlinear, it is probably best to build the VCO and measure KVCO about 2.5V. The results of one such measurement are shown in the following. The slope of the curve is determined by linear regression techniques and equals KVCO. For our example, KVCO = 6.05 Mrad/S/V. FIGURE 14. COLPITTS OSCILLATOR C1 is to adjust the center frequency, C2 DC isolates the control from the oscillator, and V1 is the primary control device.

FOSC vs VC, LC VCO 5. Now we can solve for C3, C4, and R3. We choose R3 = 30kΩ for convenience. FIGURE 15. 10 6. Notice R2 has little effect on the loop filter design. R2 should be large, around 100k, and can be adjusted to compensate for any static phase error tθ at lock, but if made too large, will slow loop response. If R2 is made FN7174.3 May 9, 2008 EL4584 smaller, tθ (see “Timing Diagrams” on page 5) increases, and if R2 increases, tθ decreases. For LDET to be low at lock, |tθ| < 50 ns. C4 is used mainly to attenuate high frequency noise from the charge pump.

As t increases, damping increases, but so does lock time. Decreasing t decreases damping and speeds up loop response, but increases overshoot and thus increases the number of hunting oscillations before lock. Critical damping (ζ = 1) occurs at minimum lock time. Because decreased damping also decreases loop stability, it is sometimes desirable to design slightly overdamped (ζ > 1), trading lock time for increased stability. FIGURE 17.

The oscillator and filter sections constitute a feedback loop and thus care must be taken to avoid any feedback signal influencing the oscillator except at the control input. The entire oscillator/filter section should be surrounded by copper ground to prevent unwanted influences from nearby signals. Use separate paths for analog and digital supplies, keeping the analog (oscillator section) as short and free from spurious signals as possible. Careful attention must be paid to correct bypassing. Keep lead lengths short and place bypass capacitors as close to the supply pins as possible. If laying out a PCB to use discrete components for the VCO section, care must be taken to avoid parasitic capacitance at the OSC pins 3 and 5, and FILTER out (pin 7). Remove ground and power plane copper above and below these traces to avoid making a capacitive connection to them. It is also recommended to enclose the oscillator section within a shielded cage to reduce external influences on the VCO, as they tend to be very sensitive to “handwaving” influences, the LC variety being more sensitive than crystal controlled oscillators. In general, the higher the operating frequency, the more important these considerations are. Self contained VCXO or VCO modules are already mounted in a shielding cage and therefore do not require as much consideration in layout. Many crystal manufacturers publish informative literature regarding use and layout of oscillators which should be helpful.
