R, G, B Input Levels

in Figure 9(d). The inputs require 1.0 V pp since the internally
generated sync pulse and color burst are at fixed and
predetermined amplitudes.
occurs during the sync interval represent black for that input
since that level will be clamped to reference black in the color
modulators and output stage. This implies that a refinement,
such as a difference between black and blanking levels, must
be incorporated in the RGB input signals.
the MC1377 is operating in NTSC, inputs may be as follows:
the Y component can be coupled through a 15 pF capacitor
to Pins 3, 4 and 5 tied together; the (–[R–Y]) component can
be coupled to Pin 12 through a 0.1 F capacitor, and the
(–[B–Y]) and burst flag components can be coupled to Pin 11
in a similar manner.
Sync Input
varied over a wide latitude, but will require bias pull–up from
most sync sources. The important requirements are:
necessary to properly trigger the PAL divider. In NTSC mode,
simplified “block” vertical sync can be used but the loss of
proper horizontal timing may cause “top hook” or “flag
waving” in some monitors. An interesting note is that
composite video can be used directly as a sync signal,
provided that it meets the sync input criteria.
Latching Ramp (Burst Flag) Generator
tolerance (5%) 0.001 F capacitor from Pin 1 to ground and a
resistor of 51 k
produce a burst pulse of 2.5
shown in Figure 10. As the ramp on Pin 1 rises toward the
charging voltage of 8.2 V, it passes first through a burst “start
threshold” at 1.0 V, then a “stop threshold” at 1.3 V, and finally
a ramp reset threshold at 5.0 V. If the resistor is reduced to
43 k , the ramp will rise more quickly, producing a narrower
and earlier burst pulse (starting approx. 0.4 s after sync and
about 0.6 s wide). The burst will be wider and later if the
resistor is raised to 62 k , but more importantly, the 5.0 V
reset point may not be reached in one full line interval,
resulting in loss of alternate burst pulses.
burst at full line intervals on the “vertical porches.” If this is not
desired, and the MC1377 is operating in the NTSC mode,
burst flag may be applied to Pin 1 provided that the tip of the
pulse is between 1.0 Vdc and 1.3 Vdc. In PAL mode this
method is not suitable, since the ramp isn’t available to drive
the PAL flip–flop. Another means of inhibiting the burst pulse
is to set Pin 1 either above 1.3 Vdc or below 1.0 Vdc for the
duration that burst is not desired.
1) The voltage level between sync pulses must be between
2) The voltage level for the sync tips must be between
3) The width of the sync pulse should be no longer than
