LMH1980 LMH1980 Auto-Detecting SD/HD/PC Video Sync Separator Literature Number: SNLS263 LMH1980 Auto-Detecting SD/HD/PC Video Sync Separator General Description Features The LMH1980 is an auto-detecting SD/HD/PC video sync separator ideal for use in a wide range of video applications, such as automotive LCD monitors, video capture & editing devices, surveillance & security equipment, and machine vision and inspection systems. The LMH1980 accepts an analog video input signal with either bi-level or tri-level sync and automatically detects the video format, eliminating the need for external RSET resistor adjustment required by other sync separators (e.g.: LM1881). The outputs provide timing signals in CMOS logic, including Composite, Horizontal, and Vertical Syncs, Burst/Back Porch Timing, and Odd/Even Field outputs. The HD flag output (pin 5) provides a logic low signal only when a valid HD video input with tri-level sync is detected. The HD flag can be used to disable an external switch-controlled SD chroma filter when HD video is detected, or enable it when SD video is detected. For non-standard video with bi-level sync and without vertical serration pulses, a default vertical sync pulse will be output and no horizontal sync pulses will be output during the vertical sync interval. Analog video sync separation for NTSC, PAL, 480I/P, The LMH1980 is available in a space-saving 10-ld. Mini-SO Package (MSOP) and operates over a temperature range of -40C to +85C.

Test Circuit The LMH1980 test circuit is shown in Figure 2. The video generator should provide a clean, low-noise video input signal with minimal sync pulse overshoot over 75 coaxial cable, which should be impedance-matched with a 75 load termination resistor to prevent unwanted signal distortion. The output waveforms should be monitored using a low-capacitance probe on an oscilloscope with at least 500 MHz bandwidth.

Its advanced features and easy application make it ideal for consumer, professional, and industrial video systems where sync timing needs to be extracted from SD, HD, and PC video signals. The device can operate from a supply voltage between 3.3V and 5V. The only required external components are bypass capacitors between the VCC and GND pins, input coupling capacitor (CIN) from the signal source to the VIN pin, and a fixed-value 1% precision resistor between the REXT and GND pins. Refer to the test circuit in Figure 2. REXT Resistor The precision external resistor (REXT) establishes the internal bias current and precise reference voltage for the LMH1980. For optimal performance, REXT should be a 10 k 1% precision resistor with a low temperature coefficient to ensure proper operation over a wide temperature range. Using a REXT resistor with less precision may result in reduced performance (like worse performance, increased propagation delay variation, or reduced input sync amplitude range) against temperature, supply voltage, input signal, or part-topart variations. Note: The REXT resistor used with the LMH1980 serves a different function than the "RSET resistor" used with other previous sync separators, like the LM1881. For the LM1881, the RSET value needed to be adjusted externally to support different input line rates. For the LMH1980, the REXT value is fixed, and the device automatically detects the input line rate to support various video formats without electrical or physical intervention. Input Termination The video source should be load terminated with a 75 resistor to ensure correct video signal amplitude and minimize signal distortion due to reflections. In extreme cases, the LMH1980 can handle non-terminated or double-terminated input conditions, assuming 1VPP signal amplitude for normally terminated video. Input Filtering An external filter is recommended if the video signal has large chroma amplitude that extends near the sync tip and/or has considerable high-frequency noise, so they do not interfere with sync separation. A simple RC low-pass chroma filter with a series resistor (R9) and a filter capacitor (C2) to ground can be used to sufficiently attenuate chroma such that minimum peak of its amplitude is above the slicing level and also to improve the overall signal-to-noise ratio. To achieve the desired filter cutoff frequency, it's advised to vary C2 and keep R9 small (i.e.: 100) to minimize sync tip clipping due to the voltage drop across R9. Keep in mind that as the cutoff frequency decreases, the LMH1980 output propagation delays increase, which could affect the timing relationship between the sync and video signals. In applications where the chroma filter needs to be disabled when HD video is input, it is possible to use a transistor switch (Q1) controlled by the HD flag (pin 5) to open C2's connection to ground as shown in Figure 11. When a HD tri-level sync input signal is applied, HD will output logic low (following a brief delay for auto format detection) and Q1 will turn off to disable the chroma filter, which is intended for SD composite video only. When a SD bi-level sync signal (i.e.: NTSC/PAL) is applied, HD will output logic high and Q1 will turn on to enable the chroma filter. Important: If the filter cutoff frequency (fCO) is set too low and HD video is applied, the filter can severely roll off and attenuate the input's high-bandwidth tri-level sync pulses such that the LMH1980 cannot detect a valid HD input signal. If the LMH1980 cannot detect a valid HD input, then the HD flag will never change from logic high to low and the switch-controlled filter will never be disabled via Q1. In other words, fCO should not be set too low that the filter impairs the LMH1980's ability to detect a valid HD input. The values of R9 and C2 shown in Figure 11 give fCO=2.79 MHz (about -4 dB at 3.58 MHz NTSC subcarrier frequency) without impairing HD video format detection. Automatic Format Detection and Switching Automatic format detection eliminates the need for adjusting an external RSET resistor or programming via a microcontroller. The device outputs will respond correctly to a switch in video format after a sufficient start-up time has been satisfied, usually within 1 to 2 fields of video. Unlike other sync separators, the LMH1980 does not require the power to be cycled in order to produce correct outputs after a significant change to the input signal. See the Start-up Time section for more details. Fixed-Level Sync Slicing The LMH1980 uses fixed-level sync slicing for video inputs with an amplitude from 0.5VPP to 2VPP, which allows for proper sync separation even for improperly terminated or attenuated input signals. The fixed-level sync slicing threshold is nominally 70 mV above the clamped sync tip. This means that for a minimum video input signal amplitude of 0.5VPP, the slicing level is near the mid-point of the sync pulse amplitude. This slicing level is independent of the input signal amplitude; therefore, for a 2V PP input, the slicing level occurs at 12% of the sync pulse amplitude. 9 www.national.com LMH1980 INPUT CONSIDERATIONS The LMH1980 supports sync separation for analog CVBS, Y (luma) from Y/C and YPBPR, and G (sync on green) from GBR/RGsB, as specified in the following video standards. * Composite Video (CVBS) and S-Video (Y/C): -- SMPTE 170M (NTSC), ITU-R BT.470 (PAL) * Component Video (YPBPR/GBR): -- SDTV: SMPTE 125M, SMPTE 267M, ITU-R BT.601 (480I, 576I) -- EDTV: ITU-R BT.1358 (480P, 576P) -- HDTV: SMPTE 296M (720P), SMPTE 274M (1080I/P), SMPTE RP 211 (1080PsF) * PC Graphics (RGsB): -- VESA Monitor Timing Standards and Guidelines Version 1.0, Revision 0.8 * Non-Standard Video: -- Composite NTSC & PAL (or Component 480I & 576I) without vertical serration & equalization pulses (i.e.: from logical OR-ing of H & V signals) Application Information LMH1980 Sync Lock Time In addition to settling time, the LMH1980 has a predetermined sync lock time, TSYNC-LOCK, before the outputs are correct. Once the AC-coupled input has settled enough, the LMH1980 needs time to detect the valid video signal and apply fixedlevel sync slicing before the output signals are correct. For practical values of CIN, TSYNC-LOCK is typically less than 1 or 2 video fields in duration starting from the 1st valid VSync output pulse to the valid HSync pulses beginning thereafter. VSync and HSync pulses are considered valid when they align correctly with the input's vertical and horizontal sync intervals. It is recommended for the outputs to be applied to the system after the start-up time is satisfied and outputs are valid. For example, the oscilloscope screenshot in Figure 12 shows a typical start-up time within 1 video field from when an NTSC signal is just applied to when the LMH1980 outputs are valid. 30010318 FIGURE 11. External Switch-Controlled Chroma Filter If a PC video input with bi-level sync is to be used, C2 should be removed to disable chroma filtering. This is necessary because HD will output logic high (like in the SD video input case) and enable the filter. A chroma filter could severely band-limit a high-bandwidth PC video signal, which could rolloff and attenuate the sync pulses such that the LMH1980 cannot detect a valid input signal. If some high-frequency noise filtering is needed for all video inputs, a small capacitor (C1) may be optionally used in parallel but outside of the transistor switch. When Q1 is turned on, then C1 and C2 will be connected in parallel (C1+C2) Input Coupling Capacitor The input signal should be AC coupled to the VIN (pin 4) of the LMH1980 with a properly chosen coupling capacitor, CIN. The primary consideration in choosing CIN is whether the LMH1980 will interface with video sources using an AC-coupled output stage. If AC-coupled video sources are expected in the end-application , then it's recommended to choose a small CIN value such as 0.01 F to avoid missing sync output pulses due to average picture level changes. It's important to note that video sources with an AC-coupled output will cause video-dependent jitter at the HSync output of the sync separator. When only DC-coupled video sources are expected, a larger value for CIN may be used without concern for missing sync output pulses. A smaller CIN value can be used to increase rejection of source AC hum components and also reduce start-up time regardless of the video source's output coupling type. 30010317 FIGURE 12. Typical Start-Up Time for NTSC Input to LMH1980 (CIN = 0.1 F) LOGIC OUTPUTS In the absence of a video input signal, the LMH1980 outputs are logic high except for the odd/even field, which is undefined and depends on its previous state, and the composite sync output. START-UP TIME When there is a significant change to the video input signal, such as sudden signal switching in, signal attenuation (i.e.: load termination added via loop through) or signal gain (i.e.: load termination removed), the quiescent operation of the LMH1980 will be disrupted. During this dynamic input condition, the LMH1980 outputs may not be correct but will recover to valid signals after a predictable start-up time, which consists of an adjustable input settling time and a predetermined "sync lock time". Horizontal Sync Output HSOUT (pin 6) produces a negative-polarity horizontal sync signal, or HSync, extracted from the input signal. For bi-level and tri-level sync signals, HSync's negative-going leading edge is derived from the input's sync reference, OH, with a propagation delay. Important: The HSync output has good performance on its negative-going leading edge, so it should be used as the reference to a negative-edge triggered PLL input. If HSync is used as the reference to a positive-edge triggered PLL input, like in some FPGAs, the signal must be inverted first to produce a positive-polarity HSync signal (i.e.: positive-going leading edge) before the PLL input. HSync's trailing edge should not be used as the reference to a PLL because for a NTSC/PAL input, the input's half-width pulses (1/2TSYNC) in the vertical interval cause the trailing edges of the HSync output to occur earlier than for the normal-width sync pulses (TSYNC). This bi-modal timing variation on HSync's trailing edge, as shown in Figure 13, could affect the performance of the PLL. The bi-modal trailing edge timing also occurs on the CSync output as well. Input Settling Time and Coupling Capacitor Selection Following a significant input condition, the negative sync tip of the AC-coupled signal settles to the input clamp voltage as the coupling capacitor, CIN, recovers a quiescent DC voltage via the dynamic clamp current through VIN. Because C IN determines the input settling time, its capacitance value is critical when minimizing overall start-up time. A smaller CIN value yields shorter settling time at the expense of increased line droop voltage, whereas a larger one yields reduced line droop but longer settling time. Settling time is proportional to the value of CIN, so doubling CIN will also double the settling time. www.national.com 10 HD Detect Flag Output HD (pin 5) is an active-low flag output that only outputs a logic low signal when a valid HD video input (i.e.: 720P, 1080I and 1080P) with tri-level sync is detected; otherwise, it will output logic high. Note that there is a processing delay (within 1 to 2 video fields) from when an HD video signal is applied to when the outputs are correct and the HD flag changes from logic high (default) to logic low, to indicate a valid HD input has been detected. The HD flag can be used to disable an external switch-controlled SD chroma filter when HD video is detected and conversely, enable it when SD video is detected. This is important because a non-switched chroma filter attenuates signal components above 500 kHz to 3 MHz, which could roll-off and/or attenuate the high bandwidth HD tri-level sync signal prior to the LMH1980 and may increase output propagation delay and jitter. See the Input Filtering section for more information. 30010313 FIGURE 13. Bi-modal Timing on HSync's Trailing Edge for Half-Width Pulses for NTSC Vertical Sync Output VSOUT (pin 7) produces a negative-polarity vertical sync signal, or VSync. VSync's negative-going leading edge is derived from the first vertical serration pulse with a propagation delay, and its output pulse width, TVSOUT, spans approximately three horizontal periods (3H). When there is no vertical serration pulses (i.e.: non-standard video signal), the LMH1980 will output a default VSync pulse derived from the input's vertical sync leading edge with a propagation delay. ADDITIONAL CONSIDERATIONS Using an AC-Coupled Video Source into the LMH1980 An AC coupled video source typically has a 100 F or larger output coupling capacitor (COUT) for protection and to remove the DC bias of the amplifier output from the video signal. When the video source is load terminated, the average value of the video signal will shift dynamically as the video duty cycle varies due to the averaging effect of the COUT and termination resistors. The average picture level or APL of the video content is closely related to the duty cycle. For example, a significant decrease in APL such as a whiteto-black field transition will cause a positive-going shift in the sync tips characterized by the source's RC time constant, tRCOUT (150*COUT). The LMH1980's input clamp circuitry may have difficulty stabilizing the input signal under this type of shifting; consequently, the unstable signal at VIN may cause missing sync output pulses to result, unless a proper value for CIN is chosen. To avoid this potential problem when interfacing AC-coupled sources to the LMH1980, it's necessary to introduce a voltage droop component via CIN to compensate for video signal shifting related to changes in the APL. This can be accomplished by selecting CIN such that the effective time constant of the LMH1980's input circuit, tRC-IN, is less than tRC-OUT. The effective time constant of the input circuit can be approximated as: tRC-IN = (RS+RI)*CIN*TLINE/TCLAMP, where RS = 150, RI = 1 k (input resistance when clamping), TLINE 64 s for NTSC, and TCLAMP = 250 ns (internal clamp duration). A white-to-black field transition in NTSC video through COUT will exhibit the maximum sync tip shifting due to its long line period (TLINE). By setting tRC-IN < tRC-OUT, the maximum value of CIN can be calculated to ensure proper operation under this worst-case condition. For instance, tRC-OUT is about 33 ms for COUT = 220 F. To ensure tRC-IN < 33 ms, CIN must be about 100 nF or less. By choosing CIN = 47 nF, the LMH1980 will function properly with AC-coupled video sources using COUT 220 F. Composite Sync Output CSOUT (pin 8) simply reproduces the video input sync pulses below the video blanking level. This is obtained by clamping the video signal sync tip to the internal clamp voltage at VIN and extracting the resultant composite sync signal, or CSync. For both bi-level and tri-level syncs, CSync's negative-going leading edge is derived from the input's negative-going leading edge with a propagation delay. Burst/Back Porch Timing Output BPOUT (pin 9) provides a negative-polarity burst/back porch signal, which is pulsed low for a fixed width during the back porch interval following the input's sync pulse. The burst/back porch timing pulse is useful as a burst gate signal for NTSC/ PAL color burst synchronization and as a clamp signal for black level clamping (DC restoration) and sync stripping applications. For SDTV formats, the back porch pulse's negative-going leading edge is derived from the input's positive-going sync edge with a propagation delay, and the pulse width spans an appropriate duration of the color burst envelope for NTSC/ PAL. For EDTV formats, the back porch pulse behaves similar to the SDTV case except with a narrow pulse width. For HDTV formats, the pulse's leading edge is derived from the input's negative-going trailing sync edge with a propagation delay, and the pulse width is narrow to correspond with the short back porch durations. During the vertical sync period, the back porch output will be muted (no pulses) and remain logic high. Odd/Even Field Output OEOUT (pin 10) provides an odd/even field output signal, which facilitates identification of odd and even fields for interlaced or segmented frame (sF) formats. For interlaced or segmented frame formats, the odd/even output is logic high PCB LAYOUT CONSIDERATIONS Please refer to the "LMH1980 Evaluation Board Instruction Manual" Application Note (AN-1618) for a good PCB layout 11 www.national.com LMH1980 during an odd field (field 1) and logic low during an even field (field 2). The odd/even output edge transitions align with VSync's leading edge to designate the start of odd and even fields. For progressive (non-interlaced) video formats, the output is held constantly at logic high. LMH1980 example, which adheres to the following suggestions for component placement and signal routing. connect to pin 1 and the ground plane using the shortest possible connections. All input and output signals should be kept as far as possible from this pin to prevent unwanted signals from coupling into this bias reference pin. LMH1980 IC Placement The LMH1980 should be placed such that critical signal paths are short and direct to minimize PCB parasitics from degrading the video input and logic output signals. Video Input The input signal path should be routed using short, direct traces between video source and input pin. Use a 75 load termination on the board, if not on the cable. If applicable, the chroma filter components should be connected using short traces and the filter capacitor should be connected to the ground plane. There should be a sufficient return path from the LMH1980 back to the input source via the ground plane. Ground Plane A two-layer, FR-4 PCB is sufficient for this device. One of the PCB layers should be dedicated to a single, solid ground plane that connects to the GND pin of the device and connects to other components, serving as the common ground reference. It also helps to reduce trace inductances and minimize ground loops. Routing supply and signal traces on another layer can help to maintain as much ground plane continuity as possible. Output Routing The output signal paths should be routed using short, direct traces to minimize parasitic effects that may degrade these high-speed logic signals. The logic outputs do not have high output drive capability. Each output should have a resistive load of about 10k or more and capacitive load of about 10pF including parasitic capacitances for optimal signal quality. Each output can be protected against brief short-circuit events using a small series resistor, like 100, to limit output current. Power Supply Routing The power supply pin should be connected using short traces with minimal inductance. When routing the supply traces, try not to disrupt the solid ground plane. For high frequency bypassing, place 0.1 F and 0.01 F SMD ceramic bypass capacitors with very short connections to VCC and GND pins. Place a 4.7 or 10 F SMD tantalum bypass capacitor nearby the VCC for low frequency supply bypassing. REXT Resistor The REXT resistor should be a 10 k 1% SMD precision resistor. Place REXT as close as possible to the device and www.national.com 12 LMH1980 Physical Dimensions inches (millimeters) unless otherwise noted 10-Pin MSOP NS Package Number MUB10A 13 www.national.com LMH1980 Auto-Detecting SD/HD/PC Video Sync Separator Notes THE CONTENTS OF THIS DOCUMENT ARE PROVIDED IN CONNECTION WITH NATIONAL SEMICONDUCTOR CORPORATION ("NATIONAL") PRODUCTS.

Customers should obtain the latest relevant information before placing orders and should verify that such information is current and complete. All products are sold subject to TI's terms and conditions of sale supplied at the time of order acknowledgment. TI warrants performance of its hardware products to the specifications applicable at the time of sale in accordance with TI's standard warranty. Testing and other quality control techniques are used to the extent TI deems necessary to support this warranty. Except where mandated by government requirements, testing of all parameters of each product is not necessarily performed. TI assumes no liability for applications assistance or customer product design. Customers are responsible for their products and applications using TI components. To minimize the risks associated with customer products and applications, customers should provide adequate design and operating safeguards. TI does not warrant or represent that any license, either express or implied, is granted under any TI patent right, copyright, mask work right, or other TI intellectual property right relating to any combination, machine, or process in which TI products or services are used. Information published by TI regarding third-party products or services does not constitute a license from TI to use such products or services or a warranty or endorsement thereof. Use of such information may require a license from a third party under the patents or other intellectual property of the third party, or a license from TI under the patents or other intellectual property of TI. Reproduction of TI information in TI data books or data sheets is permissible only if reproduction is without alteration and is accompanied by all associated warranties, conditions, limitations, and notices. Reproduction of this information with alteration is an unfair and deceptive business practice. TI is not responsible or liable for such altered documentation. Information of third parties may be subject to additional restrictions. Resale of TI products or services with statements different from or beyond the parameters stated by TI for that product or service voids all express and any implied warranties for the associated TI product or service and is an unfair and deceptive business practice. TI is not responsible or liable for any such statements. TI products are not authorized for use in safety-critical applications (such as life support) where a failure of the TI product would reasonably be expected to cause severe personal injury or death, unless officers of the parties have executed an agreement specifically governing such use. Buyers represent that they have all necessary expertise in the safety and regulatory ramifications of their applications, and acknowledge and agree that they are solely responsible for all legal, regulatory and safety-related requirements concerning their products and any use of TI products in such safety-critical applications, notwithstanding any applications-related information or support that may be provided by TI. Further, Buyers must fully indemnify TI and its representatives against any damages arising out of the use of TI products in such safety-critical applications. TI products are neither designed nor intended for use in military/aerospace applications or environments unless the TI products are specifically designated by TI as military-grade or "enhanced plastic." Only products designated by TI as military-grade meet military specifications. Buyers acknowledge and agree that any such use of TI products which TI has not designated as military-grade is solely at the Buyer's risk, and that they are solely responsible for compliance with all legal and regulatory requirements in connection with such use. TI products are neither designed nor intended for use in automotive applications or environments unless the specific TI products are designated by TI as compliant with ISO/TS 16949 requirements. Buyers acknowledge and agree that, if they use any non-designated products in automotive applications, TI will not be responsible for any failure to meet such requirements.
