Application Information
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The LMH1980 is designed to extract the timing information
from various video formats with standard and non-standard
vertical serration and output the syncs and relevant timing
signals in CMOS logic. Its advanced features and easy ap-
plication make it ideal for consumer, professional, and indus-
trial video systems where sync timing needs to be extracted
from SD, HD, and PC video signals. The device can operate
from a supply voltage between 3.3V and 5V. The only re-
quired external components are bypass capacitors between
the V
signal source to the V
resistor between the R
circuit in Figure 2.

fixed, and the device automatically detects the input line rate
to support various video formats without electrical or physical
intervention.
Automatic Format Detection and Switching
Automatic format detection eliminates the need for adjusting
an external R
troller. The device outputs will respond correctly to a switch
in video format after a sufficient start-up time has been satis-
fied, usually within 1 to 2 fields of video. Unlike other sync
separators, the LMH1980 does not require the power to be
cycled in order to produce correct outputs after a significant
change to the input signal. See the Start-up Time section for
more details.
Fixed-Level Sync Slicing
The LMH1980 uses fixed-level sync slicing for video inputs
with an amplitude from 0.5V
er sync separation even for improperly terminated or attenu-
ated input signals. The fixed-level sync slicing threshold is
nominally 70 mV above the clamped sync tip. This means that
for a minimum video input signal amplitude of 0.5V
slicing level is near the mid-point of the sync pulse amplitude.
This slicing level is independent of the input signal amplitude;
therefore, for a 2V
the sync pulse amplitude.

INPUT CONSIDERATIONS
The LMH1980 supports sync separation for analog CVBS, Y
(luma) from Y/C and YP
GBR/RGsB, as specified in the following video standards.

Input Termination
The video source should be load terminated with a 75Ω re-
sistor to ensure correct video signal amplitude and minimize
signal distortion due to reflections. In extreme cases, the
LMH1980 can handle non-terminated or double-terminated
input conditions, assuming 1V
terminated video.
Input Filtering
An external filter is recommended if the video signal has large
chroma amplitude that extends near the sync tip and/or has
considerable high-frequency noise, so they do not interfere
with sync separation. A simple RC low-pass chroma filter with
a series resistor (R
be used to sufficiently attenuate chroma such that minimum
peak of its amplitude is above the slicing level and also to
improve the overall signal-to-noise ratio. To achieve the de-
sired filter cutoff frequency, it’s advised to vary C
R
voltage drop across R
quency decreases, the LMH1980 output propagation delays
increase, which could affect the timing relationship between
the sync and video signals.
In applications where the chroma filter needs to be disabled
when HD video is input, it is possible to use a transistor switch
(Q1) controlled by the HD flag (pin 5) to open C
to ground as shown in Figure 11. When a HD tri-level sync
input signal is applied, HD will output logic low (following a
brief delay for auto format detection) and Q1 will turn off to
disable the chroma filter, which is intended for SD composite
video only. When a SD bi-level sync signal (i.e.: NTSC/PAL)
is applied, HD will output logic high and Q1 will turn on to
enable the chroma filter.
Important: If the filter cutoff frequency (f
HD video is applied, the filter can severely roll off and atten-
uate the input's high-bandwidth tri-level sync pulses such that
the LMH1980 cannot detect a valid HD input signal. If the
LMH1980 cannot detect a valid HD input, then the HD flag will
never change from logic high to low and the switch-controlled
filter will never be disabled via Q1. In other words, f
not be set too low that the filter impairs the LMH1980's ability
to detect a valid HD input. The values of R

tection.
