4.  Analog/Digital Video Input Interface 

A video source is required to observe video output on the LCD screen controlled by TW8816.  
There are various video sources that could be used with the connectors and interfaces that are 
available.    Selection of the input may be done by a software application or by pressing the “mode” 
button of the operation keys on the main board or “Embed microcontroller board.”    If there are no 
PC input signals, the input selection will default to CVBS.    Details of the operation of the video 
input interface may vary depending on the firmware. 
 

a. Analog Video Input Connectors 

 

- S-Video 
- CVBS 
 

 

 

b. Digital Video Input Interface 

 
- Digital video input to the TW8816 are available via the “DTV/MCU Daughter Card I/F” interface 
connector CN14.  It allows connection to 24-bit RGB or 8/16/24-bit YCbCr up to 108MHz, and 
both interlaced and progressive ITU-656 sources are supported.  On the daughter card, CVBS 
input to the TW9910 is output as digital video connected to TW8816.
