FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The PAN-IC is an add-on IC to be used, for example,
between analog-to-digital conversion and a serial (field)
memory. The device performs the following tasks:
• Linear horizontal sample rate conversion in both zoom
and compress direction, with a sample rate conversion
factor between 0.5 and 2
• Dynamic sample rate conversion for panorama mode
display of e.g. 4 : 3 material on a 16 : 9 display
• Dynamic sample rate conversion for amaronap mode
display of e.g. 16 : 9 material on a 4 : 3 display.
The PAN-IC has the ability to increase the data rate from
the ADC (maximum 16 MHz in a 16/32 MHz concept) to a
maximum of twice the data rate. For this, a 32 MHz clock
rate is needed to write to the memory. All actions to
generate a lower data rate produces disable cycles in write
enable.
In panorama and amaronap modes, the sample rate
conversion factor is modulated along the video line.
In the centre of the line a high quality compression (e.g.
with a factor 4⁄3) has to be made. Towards the sides of the
line, more and more expansion and compression
respectively is made. The sample rate conversion factor
over a line will have a bathtub shape, with parameters
illustrated in Fig.3:
• X0l and X0r, where in-between a constant data rate is
maintained (area I) and starting points from where a
curve can be programmed for its 2nd derivative (in
areas II and V)
• X1l and X1r, points from where a new curve can be
programmed for its 2nd derivative (for areas III and IV)
• X2l corresponds to the first sample in the output data
stream, defined by start of WEI
• X2r corresponds to the last sample in the output data
stream, defined by the programmed number of samples
• C1, which controls the second derivatives of the data
rate in areas II and V
• C2, which controls the second derivatives of the data
rate in areas III and IV.
