8.6 AFC and digital acquisition help
Each relaxation oscillator of the VIF-PLL and FM-PLL demodulator has a wide frequency
range. To prevent false locking of the PLLs and with respect to the catching range, the
digital acquisition help provides an individual control, until the frequency of the VCO is
within the preselected standard dependent lock-in window of the PLL.
The in-window and out-window control at the FM PLL is additionally used to mute the
audio stage (if auto mute is selected via the I
2
C-bus).
The working principle of the digital acquisition help is as follows. The PLL VCO output is
connected to a down counter which has a predefined start value (standard dependent).
The VCO frequency clocks the down counter for a fixed gate time. Thereafter, the down
counter stop value is analyzed. In case the stop value is higher (lower) than the expected
value range, the VCO frequency is lower (higher) than the wanted lock-in window
frequency range. A positive (negative) control current is injected into the PLL loop filter
and consequently the VCO frequency is increased (decreased) and a new counting cycle
starts.
The gate time as well as the control logic of the acquisition help circuit is dependent on the
precision of the reference signal at pin REF. Operation as a crystal oscillator is possible as
well as connecting this input via a serial capacitor to an external reference frequency, e.g.
the tuning system oscillator.
The AFC signal is derived from the corresponding down counter stop value after a
counting cycle. The last four bits are latched and can be read out via the I
2
C-bus
(see Table 8). Also the digital-to-analog converted value is given as current at pin AFC.
8.7 Video demodulator and amplifier
The video demodulator is realized by a multiplier which is designed for low distortion and
large bandwidth. The VIF signal is multiplied with the ‘in phase’ signal of the VIF-PLL
VCO.
The demodulator output signal is fed into the video preamplifier via a level shift stage with
integrated low-pass filter to achieve carrier harmonics attenuation.
The output signal of the preamplifier is fed to the VIF-AGC detector (see Section 8.3) and
in the sound trap mode also fed internally to the integrated sound carrier trap
(see Section 8.8). The differential trap output signal is converted to a single-ended signal
and amplified by the following post-amplifier. The video output level at pin CVBS is
2 V (p-p).
In the trap bypass mode the output signal of the preamplifier is fed directly through the
post-amplifier to pin CVBS. The output video level is 1.1 V (p-p) for using an external
sound trap with 10 % overall loss.
Noise clipping is provided in both cases.

8.8 Sound carrier trap
The sound trap is constructed of three separate traps to realize sufficient suppression of
the first and second sound carriers.
For frequency control of the sound trap additionally a reference low-pass filter and a
phase detector are built in.
A sound carrier reference signal is fed into the reference low-pass filter and is shifted by
nominal 90 degrees. The phase detector compares the original reference signal with the
signal shifted by the reference filter and produces a DC voltage by charging or discharging
an integrated capacitor with a current proportional to the phase difference between both
signals, respectively to the frequency error of the integrated filters. The DC voltage
controls the frequency position of the reference filter and the sound trap. So the accurate
frequency position for the different standards is set by the sound carrier reference signal.
8.9 SIF amplifier
The SIF amplifier consists of three AC-coupled differential stages. Gain control is
performed by emitter degeneration and collector resistor variation. The total gain control
range is typically 66 dB. The differential input impedance is typically 2 k in parallel with
3pF.
8.10 SIF-AGC detector
SIF gain control is performed by detection and controlling to a reference value of the
DC component of the AM demodulator output signal. This DC signal corresponds directly
to the SIF voltage at the output of the SIF amplifier so that a constant SIF signal is
supplied to the AM demodulator and to the single reference QSS mixer.
By switching the gain of the input amplifier of the SIF-AGC detector via the I
2
C-bus, the
internal SIF level for FM sound is 5.5 dB lower than for AM sound. This is to adapt the
SIF-AGC characteristic to the VIF-AGC characteristic. The adaption is ideal for a
picture-to-sound FM carrier ratio of 13 dB.
Via a comparator, the integrated AGC capacitor is charged or discharged for providing the
required SIF gain. Due to AM sound, the AGC reaction time is slow (f
c
< 20 Hz for the
closed AGC loop). For reducing this AM sound time constant in the event of a decreasing
IF amplitude step, the charge/discharge current of the AGC capacitor is increased (fast
mode) when the VIF-AGC detector (at positive modulation mode) operates in the fast
mode too. An additional circuit (threshold approximately 7 dB) ensures a very fast gain
reduction for a large increasing IF amplitude step.
8.11 Single reference QSS mixer
With the present system a high performance Hi-Fi stereo sound processing can be
achieved. For a simplified application without a SIF SAW filter, the single reference QSS
mixer can be switched to the intercarrier mode via the I
2
C-bus.
The single reference QSS mixer generates the 2nd FM TV sound intercarrier signal. It is
realized by a linear multiplier which multiplies the SIF amplifier output signal and the
VIF-PLL VCO signal (90 degrees output) which is locked to the picture carrier. In this way
the QSS mixer operates as a quadrature mixer in the intercarrier mode and provides
suppression of the low frequency video signals.

C-bus controlled multistandard alignment-free IF-PLL demodulators
The QSS mixer output signal is fed internally via a high-pass and low-pass combination to
the FM demodulator as well as via an operational amplifier to the intercarrier output
pin SIOMAD.
8.12 AM demodulator
The amplitude modulated SIF amplifier output signal is fed both to a two-stage limiting
amplifier that removes the AM and to a linear multiplier. The result of the multiplication of
the SIF signal with the limiter output signal is AM demodulation (passive synchronous
demodulator). The demodulator output signal is fed via a low-pass filter that attenuates
the carrier harmonics and through the input amplifier of the SIF-AGC detector to the audio
amplifier.
8.13 FM demodulator and acquisition help
The narrowband FM-PLL detector consists of:
Gain controlled FM amplifier and AGC detector
Narrowband PLL
The 2nd SIF signal from the intercarrier mixer is fed to the input of an AC-coupled gain
controlled amplifier with two stages. The gain controlled output signal is fed to the phase
detector of the narrowband FM PLL (FM demodulator). For good selectivity and
robustness against disturbance caused by the video signal, a high linearity of the gain
controlled FM amplifier and of the phase detector as well as a constant signal level are
required. The gain control is done by means of an ‘in phase’ demodulator for the 2nd SIF
signal (from the output of the FM amplifier). The demodulation output is fed into a
comparator for charging or discharging the integrated AGC capacitor. This leads to a
mean value AGC loop to control the gain of the FM amplifier.
The FM demodulator is realized as a narrowband PLL with an external loop filter, which
provides the necessary selectivity (bandwidth approximately 100 kHz). To achieve good
selectivity, a linear phase detector and a constant input level are required. The gain
controlled intercarrier signal from the FM amplifier is fed to the phase detector. The phase
detector controls via the loop filter the integrated low radiation relaxation oscillator. The
designed frequency range is from 4 MHz to 7 MHz.
The VCO within the FM PLL is phase-locked to the incoming 2nd SIF signal, which is
frequency modulated. As well as this, the VCO control voltage is superimposed by the
AF voltage. Therefore, the VCO tracks with the FM of the 2nd SIF signal. So, the
AF voltage is present at the loop filter and is typically 5 mV (RMS) for 27 kHz
FM deviation. This AF signal is fed via a buffer to the audio amplifier.
The correct locking of the PLL is supported by the digital acquisition help circuit
(see Section 8.6).
