What is Composite Video?

Modulated chrominance is added
to the luminance information
along with appropriate horizontal
and vertical sync signals,
blanking information, and color
burst information, to generate
composite video waveform.

Video Decoder on EZ-KIT

ADV7183: A multi-format SDTV Video Decoder
Automatically detect standard analog baseband television signal
Support analog input compatible to : NTSC, PAL, SECAM
Convert to 4:2:2 CCIR601/CCIR656 format

Data exchange with Blackfin processor through PPI

Note: PPI connection and Video configuration switch (SW3)
PPI7~PPI0 Connect to Decoder output data, therefore you cannot
choose output CCIR601(16bit) format on EZ-KIT.
SW3 setting:

transmission
CCIR 601:
16 bit data + horizontal
synchronous signal +
vertical synchronous
signal + clock, use 19
pins
13.5 MHz Clock
720 * 480 frame size
Y:Cb:Cr = 4:2:2

CCIR 656
8bit data + clock, use 9
pins
27 MHz Clock
720 * 480 frame size
Y:Cb:Cr = 4:2:2

Several Hint
On ADSP BF533 EZ-KIT, PPI is shared by
video decoder and video encoder.
If you use open source code from Internet,
even from website of Analog Device, be care
of memory allocation and code optimization.
On EZ-KIT, you may simplify many part and
take more time on your critical software
design such as video codec kernel, rather
than file format or some other things like that.
