GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ADV7123 (ADV) is a triple high speed, digital-to-analog
converter on a single monolithic chip. It consists of three high
speed, 10-bit, video DACs with complementary outputs, a
standard TTL input interface, and a high impedance, analog
output current source.

These maximum/minimum specifications are guaranteed by characterization over the 4.75 V to 5.25 V range.
Note that the ADV7123 exhibits high performance when operating with an internal voltage reference, VREF.
DAC-to-DAC crosstalk is measured by holding one DAC high while the other two are making low-to-high and high-to-low transitions.

Clock and data feedthrough is a function of the amount of overshoot and undershoot on the digital inputs. Glitch impulse includes clock and data feedthrough.
5
TTL input values are 0 V to 3 V, with input rise/fall times of 3 ns, measured from the 10% and 90% points. Timing reference points are 50% for inputs and outputs.

Description
Red, Green, and Blue Pixel Data Inputs (TTL Compatible). Pixel data is latched on the rising edge of CLOCK. R0,
G0, and B0 are the least significant data bits. Unused pixel data inputs should be connected to either the
regular printed circuit board (PCB) power or ground plane.
Composite Blank Control Input (TTL Compatible). A Logic 0 on this control input drives the analog outputs,
IOR, IOB, and IOG, to the blanking level. The BLANK signal is latched on the rising edge of CLOCK. While
BLANK is a Logic 0, the R0 to R9, G0 to G9, and B0 to B9 pixel inputs are ignored.
Composite Sync Control Input (TTL Compatible). A Logic 0 on the SYNC input switches off a 40 IRE current
source. This is internally connected to the IOG analog output. SYNC does not override any other control or
data input; therefore, it should only be asserted during the blanking interval. SYNC is latched on the rising
edge of CLOCK. If sync information is not required on the green channel, the SYNC input should be tied to
Logic 0.
Analog Power Supply (5 V 5%). All VAA pins on the ADV7123 must be connected.
Clock Input (TTL Compatible). The rising edge of CLOCK latches the R0 to R9, G0 to G9, B0 to B9, SYNC, and
BLANK pixel and control inputs. It is typically the pixel clock rate of the video system. CLOCK should be driven
by a dedicated TTL buffer.
Ground. All GND pins must be connected.
Differential Red, Green, and Blue Current Outputs (High Impedance Current Sources). These RGB video
outputs are specified to directly drive RS-343A and RS-170 video levels into a doubly terminated 75 load. If
the complementary outputs are not required, these outputs should be tied to ground.
Red, Green, and Blue Current Outputs. These high impedance current sources are capable of directly driving a
doubly terminated 75 coaxial cable. All three current outputs should have similar output loads whether or
not they are all being used.
Compensation Pin. This is a compensation pin for the internal reference amplifier. A 0.1 F ceramic capacitor
must be connected between COMP and VAA.
Voltage Reference Input for DACs or Voltage Reference Output (1.235 V).

Description
A resistor (RSET) connected between this pin and GND controls the magnitude of the full-scale video signal.
Note that the IRE relationships are maintained, regardless of the full-scale output current. For nominal video
levels into a doubly terminated 75 load, RSET = 530 . The relationship between RSET and the full-scale
output current on IOG (assuming ISYNC is connected to IOG) is given by:
RSET () = 11,445 VREF (V)/IOG (mA)
The relationship between RSET and the full-scale output current on IOR, IOG, and IOB is given by:
IOG (mA) = 11,445 VREF (V)/RSET () (SYNC being asserted)
IOR, IOB (mA) = 7989.6 VREF (V)/RSET ()
The equation for IOG is the same as that for IOR and IOB when SYNC is not being used, that is, SYNC tied
permanently low.
Power Save Control Pin. Reduced power consumption is available on the ADV7123 when this pin is active.

TERMINOLOGY
Blanking Level
The level separating the SYNC portion from the video portion
of the waveform. Usually referred to as the front porch or back
porch. At 0 IRE units, it is the level that shuts off the picture
tube, resulting in the blackest possible picture.
Raster Scan
The most basic method of sweeping a CRT one line at a time to
generate and display images.
Sync Level
The peak level of the SYNC signal.
Video Signal
The portion of the composite video signal that varies in gray
scale levels between reference white and reference black. Also
referred to as the picture signal, this is the portion that can be
visually observed.

CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Table 9 details the resultant effect on the analog outputs of
BLANK and SYNC.
All these digital inputs are specified to accept TTL logic levels.
CLOCK INPUT
DIGITAL INPUTS
There are 30 bits of pixel data (color information), R0 to R9, G0
to G9, and B0 to B9, latched into the device on the rising edge
of each clock cycle. This data is presented to the three 10-bit
DACs and then converted to three analog (RGB) output
waveforms (see Figure 22).
CLOCK
DATA
00215-022
ANALOG INPUTS
(IOR, IOR, IOG, IOG,
IOB, IOB)
The ADV7123 has two additional control signals that are latched
to the analog video outputs in a similar fashion. BLANK and
SYNC are each latched on the rising edge of CLOCK to maintain
synchronization with the pixel data stream.
The BLANK and SYNC functions allow for the encoding of
these video synchronization signals onto the RGB video output.
This is done by adding appropriately weighted current sources
to the analog outputs, as determined by the logic levels on the
BLANK and SYNC digital inputs. Figure 23 shows the analog
output, RGB video waveform of the ADV7123. The influence of
SYNC and BLANK on the analog video waveform is illustrated.

ANALOG OUTPUTS
The ADV7123 has three analog outputs, corresponding to the
red, green, and blue video signals.
REFERENCE INPUT
The red, green, and blue analog outputs of the ADV7123 are
high impedance current sources. Each one of these three RGB
current outputs is capable of directly driving a 37.5 load, such
as a doubly terminated 75 coaxial cable. Figure 24 shows
the required configuration for each of the three RGB outputs
connected into a doubly terminated 75 load. This arrangement
develops RS-343A video output voltage levels across a 75
monitor.

The ADV7123 can be used for standalone, gray scale (monochrome), or composite video applications (that is, only one
channel used for video information). Any one of the three
channels, red, green, or blue, can be used to input the digital
video data. The two unused video data channels should be tied
to Logic 0. The unused analog outputs should be terminated
with the same load as that for the used channel; that is, if the
red channel is used and IOR is terminated with a doubly
terminated 75 load (37.5 ), IOB and IOG should be
terminated with 37.5 resistors (see Figure 26).

For optimum performance, the analog outputs should each
have a source termination resistance to ground of 75 (doubly
terminated 75 configuration). This termination resistance
should be as close as possible to the ADV7123 to minimize
reflections.
