television (CCTV) applications. The most important feature of
these two devices is the “Quality Box.” With this feature the
user can define a box of any size and location within each field
of video that will be compressed at full contrast while the re-
mainder outside the box, or background of the image, is com-
pressed at a lower level of contrast. The background contrast

more the image will be compressed. The objective in a given
application is to adjust the background contrast to a level that

housed in a plastic TQFP package suitable for cost-sensitive
commercial applications. The ADV612 is housed in a rugged
EDQUAD TQFP package suitable for industrial temperature
ranges. In addition, the heat slug in the ADV612 allows the part
to be used in small spaces where cooling is limited (see Table
II). The pin assignments of the ADV611 and ADV612 are dif-
