GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The TDA8366 is an I2C-bus controlled PAL/NTSC TV processor. The circuit has been designed for use with the baseband chrominance delay line TDA4665 and for DC-coupled vertical and East-West (EW) output stages. The device can process both CVBS and Y/C input signals and has a linear RGB-input with fast blanking.

FEATURES
• Multistandard vision IF circuit (positive and negative modulation)
• Video identification circuit in the IF circuit which is independent of the synchronization for stable On Screen Display (OSD) under ‘no-signal’ conditions
• Source selection with 2 Colour Video Blanking Synchronization (CVBS) inputs and a Y/C (or extra CVBS) input
• Output signals of the video switch circuit for the teletext decoder and a Picture-In-Picture (PIP) processor
• Integrated chrominance trap and bandpass filters (automatically calibrated)
• Integrated luminance delay line
• Asymmetrical peaking in the luminance channel with a (defeatable) noise coring function
• PAL/NTSC colour decoder with automatic search system
• Easy interfacing with the TDA8395 (SECAM decoder) for multistandard applications
• RGB control circuit with black-current stabilization and white point adjustment; to obtain a good grey scale tracking the black-current ratio of the 3 guns depends on the white point adjustment
• Linear RGB inputs and fast blanking
• Horizontal synchronization with two control loops and alignment-free horizontal oscillator
• Vertical count-down circuit
• Geometry correction by means of modulation of the vertical and EW drive
• I2C-bus control of various functions
• Low dissipation (850 mW)
• Small amount of peripheral components compared with competition ICs
• Only one adjustment (vision IF demodulator)
• Y, U and V inputs and outputs.
