2.3. Synchronization and Deflection
2.3.1. Deflection Processing
The deflection processing generates the signals for the
horizontal and vertical drive (see Fig. 2
–
13). This block
contains two numeric phase-locked loops and a secu-
rity unit:
–
PLL2 generates the horizontal and vertical timing,
e.g. blanking, clamping, and sync signals. Phase
and frequency are synchronized by the incoming
sync signals.
–
PLL3 adjusts the phase of the horizontal drive pulse
and compensates for the delay of the horizontal out-
put stage.
–
The security unit observes the H-Drive output sig-
nal. With an external 5-MHz reference clock, this
unit controls the H-Drive
“
off time
”
and period. In
case of an incorrect H-Drive signal the security unit
generates a free-running H-Drive signal divided
down from the 5-MHz reference clock.
The DDP 3310B is able to synchronize various hori-
zontal frequencies, even VGA frequencies. Allowed
horizontal frequencies are listed in Table 2
–
5. The hor-
izontal drive uses a high-voltage (8 V) open-drain out-
put transistor.
2.3.2. Security Unit for H-Drive
The security unit observes the H-Drive output signal
with an external 5-MHz reference clock. For different
horizontal frequencies the security unit uses different
ranges to control the H-Drive signal. Selecting a spe-
cific horizontal frequency via I
2
C-register HFREQ
automatically switches to the corresponding security
range. The control ranges are listed in Table 2
–
5.
The window of the control range has to fit into a main
control window which is selectable with the FREQSEL
input pin. With a Low signal at this pin, the main control
range is 28.8
…
34.4
μ
s and with a High signal, the
main control range is 25.6
…
29.2
μ
s. This is to prevent
malfunctions if the horizontal deflection stage is pre-
pared for VGA frequencies.
The Horizontal Drive Output can be forced to the High
level during Flyback. This means, the falling edge of
the drive pulse occurs at the earliest to the end of the
flyback pulse. This function can be enabled via the I
2
C
bus (EFLB).
