COAST
Digital Input PLL Clock Generator Coast Input. When enabled via Register 0Fh, Bit 5,
this input will cause the clock generator circuit to run open loop and ignore
the input reference clock. This is useful when operating with sync signals
that contain extra equalization pulses that must be ignored by the PLL. In
many cases, the internal VSOUT signal is used to provide the coast
control signal, but in some cases it is useful to provide an external COAST
control. Please refer to the applications section for more information.
Digital Input External Clock Input (Optional). This input can be used to provide an
external clock source instead of the internally generated clock. It is
enabled via Register 15h, Bit 0. When an external clock is used, most
other internal functions operate normally. When unused, this pin can be
connected to ground directly, or through a 10 k
resistor. The sampling
phase adjustment feature is operational when CKEXT is used.
Digital Input Sampling clock Inverting Input. This input can be used to invert the pixel
sampling clock, with respect to the normal phase of operation. This causes
the pixel sampling point to be shifted by 180 degrees in phase. Alternate
pixel sampling mode makes use of this feature by sampling at 1/2 the
incoming pixel rate, and switching the sampling phase by 180 degree
between alternate frames of video. When unused, this input should be
grounded. See the applications section for more information.

Serial Interface

SDA
Digital I/O
Serial Control Interface Data Input/Output. The serial interface is used to
access the configuration and status registers in the ADCS9888. Mode and
Data information are transferred through the SDA pin from the host or
master device. Please refer to the applications section of the datasheet
under Serial Communications for more information.
Digital Input Serial Control Interface Clock Input. The clock input is controlled by the
host or master device, and is used to load in the data sent by the host,
and to clock data out of the ADCS9888. Please refer to the applications
section of the datasheet under Serial Communications for more
information.
Digital Input The least significant bit of the device serial address is selectable as 0 or 1
to allow up to 2 ADCS9888 devices to be connected on the same serial
interface. Please refer to the applications section of the datasheet under
Serial Communications for more information.

Horizontal Sync Output. Internally generated and phase aligned horizontal
sync signal. This signal is used as a timing reference for the digital output
data stream. Please refer to the section on sync processing for more
information.
Vertical Sync Output. A delayed version of the input vertical
synchronization signal. Please refer to the section on sync processing for
more information.
Sync-On-Green Output. A logic level signal that is the output of the
Sync-On-Green slicer circuit. Please refer to the section on sync
processing for more information.
