GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ADV7181 integrated video decoder automatically detects
and converts a standard analog baseband television signal
compatible with worldwide standards NTSC, PAL, and SECAM
into 4:2:2 component video data compatible with 16-/8-bit
CCIR601/CCIR656.
The advanced, highly flexible digital output interface enables
performance video decoding and conversion in line-locked
clock-based systems. This makes the device ideally suited for a
broad range of applications with diverse analog video characteristics, including tape-based sources, broadcast sources,
security/surveillance cameras, and professional systems.
The six analog input channels accept standard composite,
S-Video, YPrPb video signals in an extensive number of
combinations. AGC and clamp restore circuitry allow an input
video signal peak-to-peak range of 0.5 V up to 1.6 V.
Alternatively, these can be bypassed for manual settings.
The fixed 54 MHz clocking of the ADCs and datapath for all
modes allow very precise, accurate sampling and digital
filtering. The line-locked clock output allows the output data
rate, timing signals, and output clock signals to be synchronous,
asynchronous, or line locked even with ±5% line length
variation. The output control signals allow glueless interface
connections in almost any application. The ADV7181 modes
are set up over a 2-wire, serial, bidirectional port (I2Ccompatible).
The ADV7181 is fabricated in a 3.3 V CMOS process. Its
monolithic CMOS construction ensures greater functionality
with lower power dissipation.
The ADV7181 is packaged in a small 64-lead LFCSP and LQFP
and Pb-free packages.

ADV7181
INTRODUCTION
The ADV7181 is a high quality, single chip, multiformat video
decoder that automatically detects and converts PAL, NTSC,
and SECAM standards in the form of composite, S-Video, and
component video into a digital ITU-R BT.656 format.
The advanced, highly flexible digital output interface enables
performance video decoding and conversion in line-locked
clock-based systems. This makes the device ideally suited for a
broad range of applications with diverse analog video characteristics, including tape-based sources, broadcast sources,
security/surveillance cameras, and professional systems.
ANALOG FRONT END
The ADV7181 analog front end comprises three 9-bit ADCs
that digitize the analog video signal before applying it to the
standard definition processor. The analog front end employs
differential channels to each ADC to ensure high performance
in mixed-signal applications.
The front end also includes a 6-channel input mux that enables
multiple video signals to be applied to the ADV7181. Current
and voltage clamps are positioned in front of each ADC to
ensure that the video signal remains within the range of the
converter. Fine clamping of the video signals is performed
downstream by digital fine clamping within the ADV7181. The
ADCs are configured to run in 4× oversampling mode.
STANDARD DEFINITION PROCESSOR
The ADV7181 is capable of decoding a large selection of
baseband video signals in composite, S-Video, and component
formats. The video standards supported by the ADV7181
include PAL B/D/I/G/H, PAL60, PAL M, PAL N, PAL Nc,
NTSC M/J, NTSC 4.43, and SECAM B/D/G/K/L. The
ADV7181 can automatically detect the video standard and
process it accordingly.
The ADV7181 has a 5-line, superadaptive, 2D comb filter that
gives superior chrominance and luminance separation when
decoding a composite video signal. This highly adaptive filter
automatically adjusts its processing mode according to video
standard and signal quality with no user intervention required.
Video user controls such as brightness, contrast, saturation, and
hue are also available within the ADV7181.
The ADV7181 implements a patented adaptive digital linelength tracking (ADLLT) algorithm to track varying video line
lengths from sources such as a VCR. ADLLT enables the
ADV7181 to track and decode poor quality video sources such
as VCRs, noisy sources from tuner outputs, VCD players, and
camcorders. The ADV7181 contains a chroma transient
improvement (CTI) processor that sharpens the edge rate of
chroma transitions, resulting in sharper vertical transitions.
The ADV7181 can process a variety of VBI data services such as
closed captioning (CC), wide screen signaling (WSS), copy generation management system (CGMS), EDTV, Gemstar 1×/2×,
and extended data service (XDS). The ADV7181 is fully
Macrovision certified; detection circuitry enables Type I, II, and
III protection levels to be identified and reported to the user.
The decoder is also fully robust to all Macrovision signal inputs.

There are two key steps to configure the ADV7181 to correctly
decode the input video. Descriptions of these steps follow.
SETADC_sw_man_en, Manual Input Muxing Enable,
Address C4 [7]
•
The analog input muxing section must be configured to
correctly route the video from the analog input pins to the
correct set of ADCs.
ADC0_sw[3:0], ADC0 mux configuration, Address C3 [3:0]
ADC1_sw[3:0], ADC1 mux configuration, Address C3 [7:4]
ADC2_sw[3:0], ADC2 mux configuration, Address C4 [3:0]
•
The standard definition processor block, which decodes
the digital data, should be configured to process either
CVBS, YC, or YPrPb.
To configure the ADV7181 analog muxing section, the user
must select the analog input (AIN1–AIN6) that is to be
processed by each ADC. SETADC_sw_man_en must be set to 1
to enable the muxing blocks to be configured. The three mux
sections are controlled by the signal buses ADC0/1/2_sw[3:0].
Table 8 explains the control words used.
ANALOG INPUT MUXING
The ADV7181 has an integrated analog muxing section that
allows more than one source of video signal to be connected to
the decoder. Figure 5 outlines the overall structure of the input
muxing provided in the ADV7181.
A maximum of six CVBS inputs can be connected and decoded
by the ADV7181. As seen in the Pin Configuration and
Function Description section, these analog input pins lie in
close proximity to one another. This calls for a careful design of
the PCB layout, for example, ground shielding between all
signals routed through tracks that are physically close together.
It is strongly recommended to connect any unused analog input
pins to AGND to act as a shield.
The input signal that contains the timing information (H/V
syncs) must be processed by ADC0. For example, in YC input
configuration, ADC0 should be connected to the Y channel and
ADC1 to the C channel. In cases where one or more ADCs are
not used to process video, for example, CVBS input, the idle
ADCs should be powered down, (see the ADC Power-Down
Control section).
Restrictions are imposed on the channel routing by the analog
signal routing inside the IC; every input pin cannot be routed to
each ADC. Refer to Table 8 for an overview on the routing
capabilities inside the chip.

Power-Down
PDBP, Address 0x0F [2]
There are two ways to shut down the digital core of the
ADV7181: a pin (PWRDN) and a bit (PWRDN see below). The
PDBP controls which of the two has the higher priority. The
default is to give the pin (PWRDN) priority. This allows the
user to have the ADV7181 powered down by default.
Table 10. PDBP Function
PDBP
0 (default)
1
Description
Digital core power controlled by the PWRDN pin
(bit is disregarded).
Bit has priority (pin is disregarded).
PWRDN, Address 0x0F [5]
Setting the PWRDN bit switches the ADV7181 into a chip-wide
power-down mode. The power-down stops the clock from
entering the digital section of the chip, thereby freezing its
operation. No I2C bits are lost during power-down. The
PWRDN bit also affects the analog blocks and switches them
into low current modes. The I2C interface itself is unaffected,
and remains operational in power-down mode.
The ADV7181 leaves the power-down state if the PWRDN bit is
set to 0 (via I2C), or if the overall part is reset using the RESET
pin.
PDBP must be set to 1 for the PWRDN bit to power down the
ADV7181.

power consumption.
Description
ADC normal operation.
Power down ADC 2.
RESET CONTROL
Chip Reset (RES), Address 0x0F [7]
Setting this bit, equivalent to controlling the RESET pin on the
ADV7181, issues a full chip reset. All I2C registers are reset to
their default values. (Some register bits do not have a reset value
specified. They keep their last written value. Those bits are
marked as having a reset value of x in the register table.) After
the reset sequence, the part immediately starts to acquire the
incoming video signal.
Notes
•
After setting the RES bit (or initiating a reset via the pin),
the part returns to the default mode of operation with
respect to its primary mode of operation. All I2C bits are
loaded with their default values, making this bit selfclearing.
•
Executing a software reset takes approximately 2 ms.
However, it is recommended to wait 5 ms before further
I2C writes are performed.
•
The I2C master controller receives a no acknowledge
condition on the ninth clock cycle when chip reset is
implemented. See the MPU Port Description section.
When should the ADCs be powered down?

GLOBAL PIN CONTROL
Three-State Output Drivers
TIM_OE, Address 0x04 [3]
TOD, Address 0x03 [6]
This bit allows the user to three-state the output drivers of the
ADV7181.
Upon setting the TOD bit, the P15–P0, HS, VS, FIELD, and SFL
pins are three-stated.
The timing pins (HS/VS/FIELD) can be forced active via the
TIM_OE bit. For more information on three-state control, refer
to the following sections:
•
Three-State LLC Driver
•
Timing Signals Output Enable
The TIM_OE bit should be regarded as an addition to the TOD
bit. Setting it high forces the output drivers for HS, VS, and
FIELD into the active (that is, driving) state even if the TOD bit
is set. If set to low, the HS, VS, and FIELD pins are three-stated
depending on the TOD bit. This functionality is useful if the
decoder is to be used as a timing generator only. This may be
the case if only the timing signals are to be extracted from an
incoming signal, or if the part is in free-run mode where a
separate chip can output, for instance, a company logo.

A block diagram of the ADV7181’s standard definition
processor is shown in Figure 7.
SD CHROMA PATH
The SDP block can handle standard definition video in CVBS,
YC, and YPrPb formats. It can be divided into a luminance and
chrominance path. If the input video is of a composite type
(CVBS), both processing paths are fed with the CVBS input.
•
Digital Fine Clamp. This block uses a high precision
algorithm to clamp the video signal.
•
Digital Fine Clamp. This block uses a high precision
algorithm to clamp the video signal.
Chroma Demodulation. This block uses a color subcarrier
(Fsc) recovery unit to regenerate the color subcarrier for
any modulated chroma scheme. The demodulation block
then performs an AM demodulation for PAL and NTSC,
and an FM demodulation for SECAM.
•
Luma Filter Block. This block contains a luma decimation
filter (YAA) with a fixed response, and some shaping filters
(YSH) that have selectable responses.
Chroma Filter Block. This block contains a chroma
decimation filter (CAA) with a fixed response, and some
shaping filters (CSH) that have selectable responses.
•
Gain Control. Automatic gain control (AGC) can operate
on several different modes, including gain based on the
color subcarrier’s amplitude, gain based on the depth of the
horizontal sync pulse on the luma channel, or fixed manual
gain.
•
Chroma Resample. The chroma data is digitally resampled
to keep it perfectly aligned with the luma data. The
resampling is done to correct for static and dynamic linelength errors of the incoming video signal.
The input signal is processed by the following blocks:

ADV7181
SYNC PROCESSING
GENERAL SETUP
The ADV7181 extracts syncs embedded in the video data
stream. There is currently no support for external HS/VS
inputs. The sync extraction has been optimized to support
imperfect video sources, for example, videocassette recorders
with head switches. The actual algorithm used employs a coarse
detection based on a threshold crossing followed by a more
detailed detection using an adaptive interpolation algorithm.
The raw sync information is sent to a line-length measurement
and prediction block. The output is then used to drive the
digital resampling section to ensure that the ADV7181 outputs
720 active pixels per line.
Video Standard Selection
The sync processing on the ADV7181 includes two specialized
postprocessing blocks that filter and condition the raw sync
information retrieved from the digitized analog video.
•
VSYNC processor. This block provides extra filtering of the
detected VSYNCs to give improved vertical lock.
•
HSYNC processor. The HSYNC processor is designed to
filter incoming HSYNCs that have been corrupted by
noise, providing much improved performance for video
signals with stable time base but poor SNR.
The VID_SEL[3:0] register allows the user to force the digital
core into a specific video standard. Under normal circumstances,
this should not be necessary. The VID_SEL[3:0] bits default to
an autodetection mode that supports PAL, NTSC, SECAM, and
variants thereof.
Refer to the Autodetection of SD Modes section for more
information on the autodetection system.
Autodetection of SD Modes
In order to guide the autodetect system of the ADV7181,
individual enable bits are provided for each of the supported
video standards. Setting the relevant bit to 0 inhibits the
standard from being detected automatically. Instead, the system
picks the closest of the remaining enabled standards. The results
of the autodetection can be read back via the status registers.
See the Global Status Registers section for more information.

This bit controls the behavior of the PAL switch bit in the SFL
(GenLock Telegram) data stream. It was implemented to solve
some compatibility issues with video encoders. It solves two
problems:
Description
Disable the autodetection of NTSC style
systems with a 4.43 MHz color subcarrier.
Enable the detection.
•
The PAL switch bit is only meaningful in PAL. Some
encoders (including Analog Devices encoders) also look
at the state of this bit in NTSC.
•
There was a design change in Analog Devices encoders
from ADV717x to ADV719x. The older versions used the
SFL (GenLock Telegram) bit directly, while the later ones
invert the bit prior to using it. This is because the inversion
compensated for the 1-line delay of an SFL (GenLock
Telegram) transmission.

COLOR CONTROLS
The following registers provide user control over the picture
appearance, including control of the active data in the event of
video being lost. They are independent of any other controls.
For instance, brightness control is independent from picture
clamping, although both controls affect the signal’s dc level.
SD_SAT_Cr[7:0] SD Saturation Cr Channel,
Address 0xE4 [7:0]
This register allows the user to control the gain of the Cr
channel only.

Figure 9. Clamping Overview
The input video is ac-coupled into the ADV7181 through a
0.1 µF capacitor. It is recommended that the range of the input
video signal is 0.5 V to 1.6 V (typically 1 V p-p). If the signal
exceeds this range, it cannot be processed correctly in the
decoder. Since the input signal is ac-coupled into the decoder,
its dc value needs to be restored. This process is referred to as
clamping the video. This section explains the general process of
clamping on the ADV7181 and shows the different ways in
which a user can configure its behavior.
The ADV7181 uses a combination of current sources and a
digital processing block for clamping, as shown in Figure 9.
The analog processing channel shown is replicated three times
inside the IC. While only one single channel (and only one
ADC) would be needed for a CVBS signal, two independent
channels are needed for YC (S-VHS) type signals, and three
independent channels are needed to allow component signals
(YPrPb) to be processed.
The clamping can be divided into two sections:
The clamping scheme has to complete two tasks: it must be able
to acquire a newly connected video signal with a completely
unknown dc level, and it must maintain the dc level during
normal operation.
For a fast acquiring of an unknown video signal, the large
current clamps may be activated. (It is assumed that the
amplitude of the video signal at this point is of a nominal
value.) Control of the coarse and fine current clamp parameters
is performed automatically by the decoder.
Standard definition video signals may have excessive noise on
them. In particular, CVBS signals transmitted by terrestrial
broadcast and demodulated using a tuner usually show very
large levels of noise (>100 mV). A voltage clamp would be
unsuitable for this type of video signal. Instead, the ADV7181
employs a set of four current sources that can cause coarse
(>0.5 mA) and fine (
