DEVICE DESCRIPTION
The GF9102A is a linear phase FIR digital filter that is usable
in a variety of video signal processing applications. The device
contains three separate fixed coefficient filters and can be
operated in three basic modes: 53 tap low pass filter, 9 tap
chroma bandpass filter or 21 tap chroma bandpass filter.
In the 53 tap low pass filter mode, the GF9102A can replace the
TMC2242 in all applications, except those requiring 1:1 low
pass filtering, for improved performance and full CCIR 601
compatibility. Specific improvements include true unity gain at
DC, 12.4 dB attenuation at s/4 with a single device, reduced
output ringing with constant input in interpolate mode, support
for signed and unsigned data formats, rounding to 10 and 8 bit
CCIR 601 data formats, masking of serial digital TRS codes in
the data stream, and elimination of the non-saturated-type
overflow condition. The device can be operated in both
TMC2242 compatible modes and in GF9102A enhanced
modes.
When used as a decimating post-filter with a double speed
oversampling analog-digital converter, the device greatly
reduces the cost and complexity of the associated analog
anti-aliasing pre-filter. In a similar fashion, when used as an
interpolating pre-filter with a double speed oversampling digital-
analog converter, the GF9102A simplifies the analog
reconstruction post-filter. The GF9102A also exceeds the
requirements for conversion between 4:2:2 and 4:4:4 signal
formats.
For chroma filtering applications, the GF9102A can be operated
as a 9 or 21 tap bandpass filter by selecting the appropriate
operating mode.
The GF9102A is packaged in a 44 pin PLCC and is pin
compatible with the TMC2242. The device operates with a
single +5 V supply.
