Video Front End Features General Description • • • • • • • • The EL4501C Video Front End (VFE) is an integrated solution that provides the key analog signal conditioning functions for analog video signals. It forms the front end interface for either an analog or analog/digital video system. The VFE contains a high bandwidth DC Restore, a sophisticated Sync Separator, and a Data Slicer for embedded data recovery. DC restore and sync separator Wideband (100MHz) DC restore Advanced sync separator Programmable data slicer Single 5 volt operation Differential Gain = 0.1% Differential Phase = 0.1° Low power (<75mW) Applications • • • • • Video Capture & Editing Video Projectors Set Top Boxes Security Video Embedded data recovery EL4501C - Preliminary EL4501C - Preliminary The VFE will perform the restoration of the DC reference level (blanking level) and the extraction of all of the necessary timing signals needed for synchronization and control. The sync separator is designed for very good noise immunity by incorporating a signal qualification scheme and internal brick wall filter. A data slicer is also included to help decode data embedded in the active video or VBI areas of the signal. The VFE operates from a single 5 volt supply and is available in a small 24 pin QSOP package that takes only 0.08in2(54mm2) of board area, as well as a standard 24 pin SOIC.
