LM1291
Video PLL System for Continuous-Sync Monitors
General Description
Features
The LM1291 is an integrated horizontal time base solution
specifically designed to operate in continuous-sync video
monitors. It automatically synchronizes to any H frequency
from 22 kHz to 125 kHz and provides the drive pulse to the
high power deflection circuit.
Available sync processing includes a vertical sync separator
and a composite video sync stripper. An internal sync selection scheme gives highest priority to separate H and V sync,
then composite sync, and finally sync on video; no external
switching between sync sources is necessary. The LM1291
provides polarity-normalized H/HV and V sync outputs,
along with logic flags which show the respective input polarities.
The design uses an on-chip FVC (Frequency-to-Voltage
Converter) to set the center frequency of the VCO (VoltageControlled Oscillator). This technique allows autosync operation over the entire frequency range using just one optimized set of external components.
The system includes a second phase detector which compensates for storage time variation in the horizontal output
transistor; the picture’s horizontal position is thus independent of temperature and component variance.
The LM1291 provides DC control pins for H Drive duty cycle
and flyback phase.

Pin Descriptions
See Figures 4 through 15 for input and output schematics.
Pin 5 - fMIN: A resistor from this pin to ground sets the lower
frequency limit of the VCO. fMIN is approximately:
Pin 1 - CLAMP CNTL: This low-impedance current-mode
input pin is internally biased to 2V. The direction of current
sets the pulse position (back porch or sync-tip), while the
current magnitude sets the pulse width. In a typical application, a control voltage of 0V–4V is applied to this pin
through a 15 kX resistor. A voltage below 2V positions the
pulse on the back porch of the horizontal sync pulse and
decreasing voltage narrows the pulse. A voltage above 2V
sets the pulse on the H sync-tip (slightly delayed from the
leading edge) and increasing voltage narrows the pulse. At
the boundary of the switchover between the two modes,
there is a narrow region of uncertainty resulting in oscillation, which should be no problem in most applications.
When there is no H sync in sync-tip mode, the clamp pulse
is generated by the VCO at the frequency preset by pin 5
(fMIN). This feature is intended for use in On Screen Display
systems.

Pin 6 - VREF CAP: This is the decoupling pin for the internal
8.2V reference. It should be decoupled to pin 21 (GND) via
a short path with a cap of at least 470 mF.
Pin 7 - VCC: 12V nominal power supply pin. This pin should
be decoupled to pin 21 (GND) via a short path with a cap of
at least 47 mF.
Pin 8 - V SYNC IN: This pin accepts AC-coupled V sync of
either polarity. The pin is internally biased at 5.2V; its input
resistance is approximately 50 kX. For best noise immunity,
a resistor of 2 kX or less should be connected from the
input side of the coupling cap to ground. See Figure 6 for
the input schematic.
Pin 2 - CLAMP PULSE: Active-low clamp pulse output. See
Figure 4 for the output schematic.
Pin 9 - COMP VIDEO IN: The composite video sync stripper
is active only when no signal is present at pin 12 (H/HV IN).
The signal to pin 9 must have negative-going sync tips
which are at least 0.14V below black level. For best noise
immunity, a resistor of 2 kX or less should be connected
from the input side of the coupling cap to ground. See Figure 7 for the input schematic.
Pin 3 - VIDEO MUTE: This NPN open-collector output produces an active-low pulse when triggered by a step change
of H sync frequency. See Figure 5 for the output schematic.
Pin 4 - fMAX: A resistor from this pin to ground sets the
upper frequency limit of the VCO. fMAX is approximately:
Pin 10 - H/HV CAP: A capacitor is connected from this pin
to ground for detecting the polarity and existence of H/HV
sync at pin 12.

Pin Descriptions (Continued)
Pin 24 - V CAP: A capacitor is connected from this pin to
ground for detecting the polarity and existence of V sync at
pin 8.
Pin 11 - H/HV SYNC OUT: The sync processor outputs
active-low H/HV sync derived from the active sync input
(pin 9 or pin 12). Pin 11 stays low in the absence of sync
input. See Figure 4 for the output schematic.
Pin 25 - FVC CAP 2: Secondary FVC filter pin. CFVC2 is
connected from this pin to ground. The width of the VIDEO
MUTE (pin 3) pulse is controlled by the time constant difference between the filters at pins 25 and 26.
Pin 12 - H/HV SYNC IN: This pin accepts AC-coupled H or
composite sync of either polarity. For best noise immunity, a
resistor of 2 kX or less should be connected from the input
side of the coupling cap to ground. See Figure 8 for the
input schematic.
Pin 26 - FVC CAP 1: Primary FVC filter pin. CFVC1 is connected from this pin to pin 21 (GND) via a short path. The
voltage at this pin is buffered to pin 27 (FVC OUT).
Pin 13 - H/HV POL OUT: A low logic level indicates activehigh H/HV sync to pin 12, a high level indicates active-low.
Pin 13 stays low in the absence of H/HV sync. See Figure 9
for the output schematic.
Pin 27 - FVC OUT: Buffered output of the Frequency-toVoltage Converter, which sets the VCO center frequency
through an external resistor to pin 28. Care should be taken
when further loading this pin, since during the vertical interval it presents a high output impedance. Excessive loading
can cause top-of-screen phase recovery problems.
Pin 14 - H DR DUTY CNTL: A DC voltage applied to this pin
sets the duty cycle of the horizontal drive output (pin 20),
with a range of approximately 30%–70%. 2V sets the duty
cycle to 50%. See Figure 10 for the input schematic.
Pin 28 - PD1 OUT/VCO IN: Phase detector 1 has a gated
charge pump output which requires an external low-pass
filter. For best jitter performance, the filter should be
grounded to pin 21 (GND) via a short path. If a voltage
source is applied to this pin, the phase detector is disabled
and the VCO can be controlled directly.
Pin 15 - H DRIVE EN: A low logic level input enables H
DRIVE OUT (pin 20). See Figure 11 for the input schematic.
Pin 16 - X-RAY SHUTDOWN: This pin is for monitoring CRT
anode voltage. If the input voltage exceeds an internal
threshold, H DRIVE OUT (pin 20) is latched high and VIDEO
MUTE (pin 3) is latched low. VCC has to be reduced to below approximately 2V to clear the latched condition, i.e.,
power must be turned off. See Figure 12 for the input schematic.
Application Hints
1. Phase control for geometry correction:
Pin 23 (H DRlVE PHASE) is designed to control static phase
(picture horizontal position), while pin 22 (PHASE DET 2
CAP) controls dynamic phase for geometry correction. With
the use of both pins 22 and 23, complete control of static
and dynamic phase can be achieved. To accomplish this,
the low-pass filter cap at pin 22 is not grounded, but is connected instead to a modulating AC voltage source. The cap
then functions both as a low-pass filter (for phase detector
2) and as an input coupling cap (for the AC source).
Pin 17 - V SYNC OUT: The sync processor outputs activelow V sync derived from the active sync input (pin 8, pin 9 or
pin 12). Pin 17 stays low in the absence of sync input. See
Figure 4 for the output schematic.
Pin 18 - FLYBACK IN: Input pin for phase detector 2. For
best operation, the flyback peak should be at least 5V but
not greater than VCC. Any pulse width greater than 1.5 ms is
acceptable. See Figure 13 for the input schematic.
2. Programmable frequency ramping:
H frequency transitions from high to low present a special
problem for deflection output stages without current limiting.
lf, during such a transition, the output transistor on-time increases excessively before the B a voltage has decreased
to its final level, then the deflection inductor current ramps
too high and the induced flyback pulse can exceed the
breakdown voltage, BVCEX, of the output transistor. To prevent this, the rate of change of the VCO frequency must be
limited.
Consider a scanning mode transition at t e 0 from f1 to f2.
The VCO frequency as a function of time, fVCO(t), is described by the equation,
Pin 19 - V POL OUT: A low logic level indicates active-high
V sync to pin 8, a high level indicates active-low. Pin 19
stays low in the absence of V sync. See Figure 9 for the
output schematic.
Pin 20 - H DRIVE OUT: This is an open-collector output
which provides the drive pulse for the high power deflection
circuit. The pulse duty cycle is controlled by pin 14. Polarity
convention: Horizontal deflection output transistor is on
when H DRIVE OUT is low. See Figure 5 for the output
schematic.
Pin 21 - GND: System ground. For best jitter performance,
all LM1291 filter components and bypass capacitors should
be connected to this pin via short paths.
fVCO(t) j f1 a (f2 b f1)(1 b exp(bt/u))
where u e 40 c 103 c CFVC1.
The above equation can be used to predict VCO behavior
during frequency transitions, but in practice the value of
CFVC1 is most easily determined empirically. In general,
large vaIues minimize the chance of exceeding BVCEX, but
generate long PLL capture times.
Pin 22 - PHASE DET 2 CAP: The low-pass filter cap for the
output of phase detector 2 is connected from this pin to pin
21 (GND) via a short path.
Pin 23 - H DRlVE PHASE: A DC control voltage applied to
this pin sets the phase of the flyback pulse with respect to
the leading edge of H sync. See Figure 14 for the input
schematic.

Application Hints (Continued)
3. Video mute:
Many sync sources fail to exhibit a clean step change of H
sync frequency during scanning mode transitions. For this
reason, in most applications a pulse smoothing circuit is
needed at pin 3. Typically a 2.2 mF cap to ground is used in
conjunction with a 100 kX pull-up resistor. See Figure 16.
The resulting pulse has a slow rise time at the trailing edge,
which extends the effective mute duration slightly.
Numerous designs require video blanking during scanning
mode transitions. The LM1291 provides an active-low pulse
at pin 3 when triggered by a step change of H sync frequency from f1 to f2. The pulse width is controlled by the time
constants set up through capacitors CFVC2 and CFVC1, at
pins 25 and 26 respectively. For CFVC2 t 3 c CFVC1, the
pulse width is approximately:
