AL251 Video Scan Doubler • Applications − − − LCD Monitor w/TV Input LCD Projector Video Editing Equipment • • • Description • • • The AL251 Video Scan Doubler (DeInterlacer) is a video conversion chip for LCD VGA display or video editing applications. It converts interlaced NTSC or PAL, ITU-R BT 601 (CCIR601) or square pixel, YUV422 or RGB565 digital data into non-interlaced analog RGB signals for direct connection to a computer monitor or progressive scan TV, or digital RGB565 /YUV422 output for LCD monitors, projectors, or other applications. • • • • • • On-screen Display Video Memory Digital YUV or RGB input 16 Video Formatter Convert interlaced digital YUV/RGB (NTSC/PAL) into non-interlaced YUV/RGB format for LCD monitors or video processing Highly integrated design with built-in DAC, SRAM, OSD and LUT Built-in on-screen-display with programmable bitmap Advanced digital line interpolation with no tearing or jagged edge artifacts Reduced interlace flicker Auto NTSC/PAL detect Digital video input of square pixel, ITU-R BT 601 (CCIR 601), or user-defined format Analog/digital non-interlaced RGB (VGA) output (Scan Doubled or De-interlaced) or digital YUV output I2C programming interface Internal RGB video lookup table (LUT) to provide gamma correction Overlay support for title making and complex on-screen display Self-initialization without software (Plug & Play) 3.3 or 5 volt support 16 RGB Video Lookup Tables Video Processor and Scan Doubler Digital YUV or RGB output 8-bit DAC R 8-bit DAC G 8-bit DAC B VCLK RSET I2C Circuit VREF Mode Control COMP INTYPE I2CADDR SCL SDA GVS GHREF GHS AVERLOGIC TECHNOLOGIES, INC. e-mail: [email protected] AVERLOGIC TECHNOLOGIES, CORP. e-mail: [email protected] SQUARE 2 HREF STD VIDVS Timing Control RESET VIDHS OVLCTRL VCLKX2 AL251-01 URL: www.averlogic.com URL: www.averlogic.com.tw February 25, 2003 VGA Monitor Analog Satellite Receiver/Tuner AL242 TV Decoder Video AL251 TV-to-VGA Converter Chip Video Processor Digital Digital Digital 640x480 LCD Panel VCR LCD Panel (Others) (Internal; YUV422) LCD Controller Laser Disc/DVD eg. AL300 (Internal; YUV422 or RGB) LCD Projector Video Games AL251 Typical Applications By using I2C interface control, the AL251 can also be programmed to co-ordinate with various input resolutions, adjust screen positioning and crop video noise from around the original input video boundary. The internal RGB video lookup tables (LUT), which are controlled via the I2C interface, can provide gamma correction for calibrating the color accuracy of different types of CRT’s and improving the contrast level to display more vivid pictures. A built-in on-screen-display (OSD) with programmable bitmap RAM allows custom design icons and on-screen control panels. Overlay function is supported to create titling or on-screen-display menus for video adjustment.
