The ADV101 is a digital-to-analog video converter on a single
monolithic chip. The part is specifically designed for high reso-
lution color graphics and video systems. It consists of three,
high speed, 8-bit, video D/A converters (RGB); a standard TTL
input interface and high impedance, analog output, current
sources.
The ADV101 has three separate, 8-bit, pixel input ports, one
each for red, green and blue video data. Additional video input
controls on the part include sync, blank and reference white. A
single +5 V supply, an external 1.23 V reference and pixel clock
input are all that are required to make the part operational.
The ADV101 is capable of generating RGB video output sig-
nals, which are compatible with RS-343A and RS-170 video
standards, without requiring external buffering.
The ADV101 is fabricated in a +5 V CMOS process. Its mono-
lithic CMOS construction ensures greater functionality with low
power dissipation. The part is packaged in both a 0.6", 40-pin
plastic DIP and a 44-pin plastic leaded (J-lead) chip carrier,
PLCC.

Stresses above those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause
permanent damage to the device. This is a stress rating only and functional
operation of the device at these or any other conditions above those listed in the
operational sections of this specification is not implied. Exposure to absolute

CAUTION
ESD (electrostatic discharge) sensitive device. Electrostatic charges as high as 4000 V readily
accumulate on the human body and test equipment and can discharge without detection.
Although the ADV101 features proprietary ESD protection circuitry, permanent damage may
occur on devices subjected to high energy electrostatic discharges. Therefore, proper ESD
precautions are recommended to avoid performance degradation or loss of functionality.

PIN FUNCTION DESCRIPTION
Pin
Mnemonic
BLANK
Function
Composite blank control input (TTL compatible). A logic zero on this control input drives the analog outputs,
IOR, IOB and IOG, to the blanking level. The
BLANK
signal is latched on the rising edge of CLOCK. While
BLANK
is a logical zero, the R0–R7, G0–G7, R0–R7 and REF WHITE pixel and control inputs are ignored.
Composite sync control input (TTL compatible). A logical zero on the
SYNC
input; switches off a 40 IRE cur-
rent source on the I
SYNC
output.
SYNC
does not override any other control or data input, therefore, it should
only be asserted during the blanking interval.
SYNC
is latched on the rising edge of CLOCK.
Clock input (TTL compatible). The rising edge of CLOCK latches the R0–R7, G0–G7, B0–B7,
SYNC,
BLANK
and REF WHITE pixel and control inputs. It is typically the pixel clock rate of the video system.
CLOCK should be driven by a dedicated TTL buffer.
Reference white control input (TTL compatible). A logical one on this input forces the IOR, IOG and IOB out-
puts to the white level, regardless of the pixel input data (R0–R7, G0–G7 and B0–B7) REF WHITE is latched
on the rising edge of clock.
Red, green and blue pixel data inputs (TTL compatible). Pixel data is latched on the rising edge of CLOCK. R0,
G0 and B0 are the least significant data bits. Unused pixel data inputs should be connected to either the regular
PCB power or ground plane.
Red, green and blue current outputs. These high impedance current sources are capable of directly driving a
doubly terminated 75
Ω
coaxial cable. All three current outputs should have similar output loads whether or not
they are all being used.
Sync current output. This high impedance current source can be directly connected to the IOG output. This al-
lows sync information to be encoded onto the green channel. I
SYNC
does not output any current while
SYNC
is
at logical zero. The amount of current output at I
SYNC
while
SYNC
is at logical one is given by:
I
SYNC
(mA) = 3,455
×

REF
(V)/R
SET
(Ω)
If sync information is not required on the green channel, I
SYNC
should be connected to AGND.
Full-scale adjust control. A resistor (R
SET
) connected between this pin and GND, controls the magnitude of the
full-scale video signal. Note that the IRE relationships are maintained, regardless of the full-scale output current.
The relationship between R
SET
and the full-scale output current on IOG (assuming I
SYNC
is connected to IOG)
is given by:
