ML6460

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION

INTRODUCTION

The ML6460 is a single-chip NTSC video encoder for

generating analog composite (CV) and S-video (Y/C)

outputs from YCrCb digital inputs. The ML6460 is a mixed

signal processor optimizing SNR and distortion by

performing subcarrier generation, sync generation,

modulation and upsampling in the digital domain, while

performing mixing, reconstruction and gain scaling in the

analog domain. In particular, the Y channel requires no

digital scaling, eliminating the need for higher precision

digital solutions. All timing is based on an external clock

source either 27MHz for CCIR656 clock rate or

24.54MHz for square pixel clock rate.

Additionally, the ML6460 allows the inclusion of Closed

Captioning codes in the vertical blanking interval (VBI).

Both lines 21 and 284 support Closed Captioning. The

ML6460 also incorporates Macrovision® copy protection

technology.

Other special functions include: programmable polarity

and relative position of sync pulses, master and slave

modes of which includes the ability to handle ITU-R656-

compliant digital TV or ITU-R/SMPTE specifications,

chroma subcarrier phase and frequency adjustments from

external source; Japanese NTSC support; 100% color bars

processing; and internal 7th order reconstruction filters

with group delay equalization and 6dB line drivers for

direct TV output.

The ML6460 can be programmed and controlled via a

two-wire serial bus or preset modes. A summary of the

features of the ML6460 are listed in Table 1.

VIDEO STANDARDS SUPPORTED

The ML6460 supports NTSC only. The video standards and

clock rates are listed in Table 2.
