Integrated Analog On Screen Display (OSD) Generator
General Description
The LM1253A pre-amp is an integrated high voltage triple
CRT pre-amp and Analog On Screen Display (OSD) genera-
tor. The IC is I
rameters necessary to setup and adjust the brightness and
contrast in the CRT display. In addition, it provides a pro-
grammable period vertical blanking pulse which is used to
blank the G1.
The LM1253A pre-amp is designed to work in cooperation
with the LM2453 driver, and provides a multiplexed video
signal (VideoPlex) interface to enable the DC clamp levels at
the cathode to be varied in order to set up the CRT bias and
to allow individual adjustment for brightness.
The Analog OSD has a selectable palette allowing a wide se-
lection of colors. The preset level of the OSD can be con-
trolled by I
is internally mixed with the video signal, before the gain sec-
tion, and thus gives excellent white tracking of the OSD with
the white color point setting of the video.
The Brightness settings are also mixed into the video signal
before the gain matching controls and consequently give ex-
cellent white color point tracking with variations in the Bright-
ness control. An active horizontal blanking signal is added to
the video at the output, giving excellent smear performance,
and preventing video content dependent DC bias offsets as
a result of high frequency over shoot.
The OSD horizontal sync and blanking signal is derived from
a positive going flyback pulse. The digital section provides
easy interfacing of this signal with the deflection circuits.
The vertical blanking signal is taken from the vertical sync
signal, and the blanking duration is programmable. This sys-
tem is highly integrated and requires a minimal number of
external components.
Black level clamping of the signal is carried out directly on
the AC coupled input signal into the high impedance pream-
plifier input, thus eliminating the need for additional black
level clamp capacitors.

The outputs are referenced to a DC level produced by the
LM1253A Pre-amp, and so are guaranteed to provide stable
DC operating levels within the system without the need for
additional external feedback components.
The IC is packaged in an industry standard wide body 28-
lead DIL molded plastic package.
