1 Introduction
ADDEC-310 is a broadcast decoder. It brings together onto one PCB both the functions
of a 12-bit broadcast decoder and synchroniser/delay module.
The ADDEC-310 will convert PAL/NTSC composite, Y/C or YUV/RGB component
video to SDI using a high quality 12-bit decoder which can deal with any source from
broadcast quality to VHS, and will accept damaged or jittery signals. The data is sampled
at 54 Mbit per second (four times oversampled) allowing the highest quality digital
filtering. It also offers the latest in comb technology, with a five-line comb resulting in
exceptional decoding. Timing, gains and levels are also adjustable.
The on-board video frame synchroniser allows untimed inputs to be timed to the local
syncs. It will sort out any incorrect frame rates plus any delays by taking its timing from
the external analogue reference and will automatically synchronise sources between 0 and
2 fields.
An audio follow pulse is also produced which allows ADDEC-310 to be used with an
external audio delay such as the TAD202
The ADDEC-310 will fully integrate with any other interface or keying product from the
Crystal Vision range. Further flexibility is afforded by the large choice of control options,
which include board edge control, local or remote active control panel and the Statesman
PC Control System.
