The demodulated color difference signals are sent into the color difference signal
selector after clamped by the clamper. If with SECAM demodulation function, the
circuit also sends color difference signals output from the SECAM demodulator to
the color difference signal selector from Pin34 and Pin36. Under the control of the
I2C bus, the color difference signals selected by the selector are sent to the base
band delay line and adder respectively for further processing.
With PAL signal received, the circuit correct color phase distortion by means of
progressively out-phasing R-Y color difference signals, causing tint distortion.
Crosstalk may exit between the two color difference signals after simple PAL
demodulation. Therefore, PAL signals should be color-difference-signal separated
by the 1H base band delay circuit.
The color difference matrix /primary color matrix circuit includes a matrix circuit to
generate a G-Y signal, contrast /luminance control circuit, primary color matrix
circuit, character clamper, character contrast control circuit, primary color selector,
white balance adjuster and beam current control circuit. The R-Y and B-Y color
difference signals from the base band delay circuit are sent to the color difference
matrix circuit for matrix processing to get a G-Y signal. The three color-difference
signals are sent to the contrast /luminance control circuit together with the Y signal.
Before sent to the primary matrix, the color difference signals/Y signal should be
unitedly adjusted by the contrast /luminance control circuit to get proper three
primary colors. In addition, LA76818A is equipped with setup circuit for
sub-brightness, sub-contrast and sub-saturation so that users can adjust brightness,
contrast and saturation, all of which are controlled by CPU through the I
2
C bus.
The R-Y, B-Y and G-Y color difference signals can be processed into R, G and B
three primary color signals after together with the Y signal in the primary color
matrix circuit, which function as drive signals to display main pictures. Send the
three primary color signals and the three character primary color signals from the
CPU into the primary color selector for selection, then output.
The three character primary color signals from the CPU are input to Pin14, Pin15
and Pin16 of LA76818A respectively. Firstly, clamp them on a fired DC level to
restore out the DC element lost during AC coupling transmission. Secondly, send
the signals to the character contrast control circuit. Under normal condition,
characters are slightly brightly than picture while the former changing range is
narrower than the latter. The character blanking signal is input to Pin17 of
LA76818A. When the signal is abnormal. No character display may appear.
