DATA SHEET
DEVICE DESCRIPTION
The GF9103 is specifically designed to simplify conversions from 4:2:2 component digital video to analog RGB or analog YCBCR component video. The GF9103 simplifies this process by performing 4:2:2 to 8:8:8 interpolation, digital color space conversion and digital SIN X/X correction in a single device. Immediately following the GF9103, three over-sampled channels of RGB or YCBCR data may be passed through Digital to Analog converters and simplified analog reconstruction filters.
The GF9103 accepts a single 10 bit stream of 4:2:2 data and internally de-multiplexes it into three 10 bit channels of YCBCR data. The YCBCR data is then passed through three linear phase FIR filters that over-sample the Y data by a factor of 2 and the CBand CR data by a factor of 4.
While operating in an over-sampled RGB output mode, the interpolated YCBCR data is passed through the internal color space converter to convert the YCBCR data to RGB data according to CCIR-601. Alternatively, the color space converter may be bypassed to obtain over-sampled YCBCR (8:8:8) output data. While operating in YCBCR output mode, setup may be dynamically inserted into the Luminance channel.
Prior to output rounding, over-sampled YCBCR or RGB data may be corrected for SIN X/X characteristics of D/A conversion. Output data may be rounded to 10 or 8 bit resolution per channel. CB and CR may be presented as signed or unsigned data.
The GF9103 is packaged in a 68 pin PLCC package, operates with a single +5 V power supply and typically consumes only 85 mA of current when operated at 27 MHz.

DEVICE DESCRIPTION
The GF9103 is composed of five main sections:
- 4:2:2 De-Multiplexer 2. FIR Filtering and Setup Insertion 3. Color Space Conversion 4. Digital SIN X/X Correction 5. Output Processing
4:2:2 DE-MULTIPLEXER
The de-multiplexer accepts data multiplexed in a SMPTE 125M compliant format from the SI9..0 input data port. SI9 is the Most Significant Bit and SI0 is the Least Significant Bit. The input data stream is assumed to be a multiplexed stream of CB Y CR [Y] CB..., where the three words CB Y CR refer to cosited samples and where [Y] refers to an isolated Luminance sample. When operating the GF9103 with 8 bit input data, SI9..2 should be used to present data to the device and SI1..0 should be set low.
At least once during a power cycle, the GF9103 must be synchronized to the incoming data stream. The GF9103 is synchronized by holding SYNC high on clock period N and low on clock period N+1 when the first CB sample is presented to the SI9..0 inputs. SYNC may be held low until re-synchronization is desired, or it may be toggled at every occurrence of a CB sample. Refer to the timing diagram in Figure 9 for required operation of the SYNC control signal.
The internal de-multiplexer will de-multiplex all data in the input data stream including any ancillary, EDH,VITC, and EAV/SAV ... signals that may be present. Since this data is passed directly to the interpolation filters in the same way that active video would be, it is recommended that such data be replaced with appropriate blanking levels prior to entering the GF9103.
The output of the 4:2:2 de-multiplexer consists of three 10 bit channels of YCBCR data. All three channels are then fed to their respective interpolation filter.
INTERPOLATION FILTERS
Within the interpolation stage, the Luminance data is oversampled by a factor of two and the CB and CR data is oversampled by a factor of four so that the 4:2:2 data is converted to 8:8:8 data. By over-sampling the 4:2:2 data to 8:8:8 data, the size, cost and complexity of the analog reconstruction filters following Digital to Analog converters are reduced.
The Luminance data is over-sampled by a linear phase FIR filter providing 0.0 dB DC gain, +0.038/-0.025 pass- band ripple [0.0 ƒs to 0.21 ƒs], 6 dB attenuation at ƒs/4, and 47 dB stopband attenuation [0.30 ƒs to 0.50 ƒs]. Figure 3 and Figure 4 present the frequency response of the Luminance interpolation filter.
The CB and CR data is over-sampled by a linear phase FIR filter providing 0.0 dB DC gain, passband ripple of +0.2 dB/- 0.2 dB [0.0 to 0.07 ƒs], 6 dB attenuation at ƒs/8 and a stopband attenuation of 28 dB [ 0.17ƒs to 0.50 ƒs].
Figure 5 and Figure 6 present the frequency response of the CB and CR interpolation filters.
Following the interpolation process, a DC offset may be introduced into the Luminance channel. Setup insertion is enabled and disabled by the SETUP control signal. While SETUP is high, the Luminance data is scaled by a factor of +947/1024 and an offset of +71 (decimal) is added. While SETUP is low, no scaling or offset is applied and the data passes through the stage unmodified. The timing diagram in Figure 10 demonstrates the operation of the SETUP control signal.
COLOR SPACE CONVERSION
Two operating modes exist for the color space converter section. These two modes are controlled by the SELECT_MATRIX control signal. While SELECT_MATRIX is low, the de-matrixing 3 x 3 multiplier is bypassed so that over-sampled Y CB CR data is passed through the stage unmodified. While SELECT_MATRIX is high, the 3 x 3 multiplier implements the following color space conversion:
Y
G 1 -689/2048 -1430/2048 =
CB
B 1 3548/2048
0
R 1 0 2807/2048
CR
SIN X/X CORRECTION
While BYPASS is high, SIN X/X correction is enabled on each of the three output channels. SIN X/X correction is implemented by passing the data through a FIR filter with the frequency response shown in Figure 7. While BYPASS is low, the FIR filter is bypassed and each channel is passed directly to the output processing section. Total latency through the device is 22 clock cycles when BYPASS is low and 24 clock cycles when BYPASS is high.
OUTPUT PROCESSING
Output data may be rounded to 10 or 8 bit accuracy. RND10/8 should be set high for 10 bit output rounding and set low for 8 bit output rounding. Rounding to 8 bit accuracy is accomplished by adding a rounding bit to SO1 and then zeroing both SO0 and SO1.
CB and CR data may be output as signed (two’s complement) or unsigned (offset binary) data depending on the state of the CONVERT control signal. When CONVERT is set high, the CB and CR channels are output as signed (two’s complement) data. When CONVERT is set low, CB and CR are output as unsigned (offset binary) data, obtained by inverting the sign bit of the two's complement number. When operating in RGB output mode, the CONVERT pin is over-ridden and RGB data is always output as unsigned (offset binary) data.

CONTROL SIGNAL/OPERATING MODE SUMMARY
SYNC
The SYNC control signal provides synchronization for the internal 4:2:2 de-multiplexer. SYNC should be held high on clock period N and low on clock period N+1 when the first CB sample is presented to the SI9..0 inputs. SYNC may be held low until re-synchronization is desired or may be toggled at every occurrence of a CB sample.
SELECT_MATRIX AND SETUP
SELECT_MATRIX and SETUP select the color space conversion and offset insertions which the GF9103 is to perform. The following chart presents the available color space conversions and the corresponding states of the SELECT_MATRIX and SETUP control pins. SETUP is a dynamic pin that may be modified every clock cycle.
