GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ML6460 is a multi-standard CCIR656 (4:2:2) video
(input) composite and S-video (outputs) encoder for NTSC
systems. It is designed to provide a low cost, single-chip
output interface for a variety of video applications
including set-top decoders, DVD players, and other YCrCb
to Y/C equipment.
The ML6460 accepts 8-bit YCrCb video in either CCIR656
or Square Pixel format and generates analog Y, C and CV
waveforms complete with Macrovision copy protection
technology and Closed Caption encoding.
The ML6460 includes output analog reconstruction filters,
phase equalizer, and 6dB (2X gain) drivers. Gain scaling,
sync, and Y+C mixing are performed at the output of the
relevant 10-bit DAC, eliminating the gain mapping stages
that require additional DAC bits. The result is Y SNR and
granularity remain precisely the same as the source.
The ML6460 supports both master and slave timing
operations. S-Video and multiple composite signals can
be driven simultaneously into 75
loads.
