    摘要: A video decoder in which the video source clock is generated entirely in the digital domain is disclosed herein. By creating a virtual version of the source clock in a numeric oscillator, the amount of noise in the system is substantially reduced. Furthermore, by transferring the digitized video signal, sampled with an asynchronous crystal clock, into the source clock domain, the accuracy of the brightness (amplitude) and color (phase) information can be greatly enhanced.

    摘要: A method and system for synchronizing video information derived from an asynchronously sampled video signals provide a mechanism for using asynchronous sampling in the front-end of digital video capture systems. A ratio between the sampling clock frequency and the source video clock frequency is computed via an all digital phase-lock loop (ADPLL) and either a video clock is generated from the ratio by another PLL, a number to clock converter or the ratio is used directly to provide digital synchronization information to downstream processing blocks. A sample rate converter (SRC) is provided in an interpolator that either acts as a sample position corrector at the same line rate as the received video, or by introducing an offset in the ADPLL, the video data can be converted to another line rate via the SRC.

    摘要: A method and apparatus for maintaining an ideal frequency ratio between numerically-controlled frequency sources provides a mechanism for maintaining coherence between multiple synchronization references where a known ideal rational relationship between the sources is known. Multiple numerically controlled oscillators (NCOs) generate the multiple synchronization references, which may be clock signals or numeric phase representations and the outputs of the NCOs are compared with a ratiometric frequency comparator that determines whether there is an error in the ratio between the NCO outputs. The frequency of one of the NCOs is then adjusted with a frequency correction factor provided by the ratiometric frequency comparator. The NCO inputs can represent ratios of the synchronization reference frequencies to a fixed reference clock and the NCOs clocked by the fixed reference clock.

    摘要: A video quality adaptive variable-rate buffering method and system for stabilizing a sampled video signal reduces the buffer size required to compensate for line-to-line variations in an unstable video source. A video signal is sampled at a predetermined rate and decimated by a selectable decimation factor prior to buffering. By selecting different decimation factors, the effective length of the buffer is changed from short duration for stable input signals and to longer duration for unstable input signals. A video signal quality detector is employed to provide a selection input that adjusts the decimation factor and also the loop bandwidth of a clock generator that provides the output clock for the buffer, which is generated from the input signal via a phase-lock loop (PLL). The operation of the system automatically varies from highly responsive for stable video input signals to less responsive for unstable video input signals, providing improved stability in the video output.

    摘要: A system in which drooping of the video levels due to leakage currents and proper DC bias level is addressed by providing a charge into the video signal to offset the leakage currents and to provide DC bias. To determine the leakage current level, measurements are made measuring the voltages of the syncs and the blanking intervals. To determine the DC bias, a measurement is made of the sync. Over a series of video lines these measurements are averaged. If the average is below the desired level, a charge is provided via a current source to the incoming signal. By having the current source provide charge during each video line, droop is reduced and the proper DC bias is provided.

    摘要: A power control system includes a switching power converter and a controller. The controller is configured to detect an over-current condition of an inductor current in the switching power converter using at least one non-inductor-current signal. In at least one embodiment, the switching power converter does not have a resistor or resistor network to sense the inductor current. In at least one embodiment, the controller indirectly determines a state of the inductor current using at least one non-inductor-current signal. Potentially damaging inductor current values that are, for example, greater than a normal maximum value or at a value that causes a discontinuous conduction mode system to operate in continuous conduction mode represent exemplary inductor over-current conditions addressed by one embodiment of the power control system.
