• Manufacturer Part Number: ad55-035z-0reel
• Description: Cmos, 330 Mhz Triple 8-bit High Speed Video Dac
• Manufacturer: Analog Devices, Inc.

CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
The ADV7125 contains three 8-bit DACs, with three input
channels, each containing an 8-bit register. Also integrated on
board the part is a reference amplifier. CRT control functions
BLANK and SYNC are integrated on board the ADV7125.
Digital Inputs
Twenty-four bits of pixel data (color information) R0–R7, G0–G7,
and B0–B7 are latched into the device on the rising edge of
each clock cycle. This data is presented to the three 8-bit DACs
and then converted to three analog (RGB) output waveforms
(See Figure 2).
The ADV7125 has two additional control signals that are latched
to the analog video outputs in a similar fashion. BLANK and
SYNC are each latched on the rising edge of CLOCK to maintain
synchronization with the pixel data stream.

The BLANK and SYNC functions allow for the encoding of
these video synchronization signals onto the RGB video output.
This is done by adding appropriately weighted current sources
to the analog outputs, as determined by the logic levels on the
BLANK and SYNC digital inputs. Figure 3 shows the analog
output, RGB video waveform of the ADV7125. The influence of
SYNC and BLANK on the analog video waveform is illustrated.
Table I details the resultant effect on the analog outputs of
BLANK and SYNC.
All these digital inputs are specified to accept TTL logic levels.
Clock Input
The CLOCK input of the ADV7125 is typically the pixel clock
rate of the system. It is also known as the dot rate. The dot rate,
and thus the required CLOCK frequency, will be determined by
the on-screen resolution, according to the following equation:
Dot Rate = (Horiz Res) × (Vert Res) × (Refresh Rate)/(Retrace Factor)
Horiz Res = Number of Pixels/Line
Vert Res = Number of Lines/Frame
Refresh Rate = Horizontal Scan Rate. This is the rate at which
the screen must be refreshed, typically 60 Hz for a noninterlaced
system or 30 Hz for an interlaced system.
Retrace Factor = Total Blank Time Factor. This takes into account
that the display is blanked for a certain fraction of the total
duration of each frame (e.g., 0.8).
