1 ASD-231i NTSC/PAL to 4:2:2 Adaptive Decoder with TBC
1.1 Introduction
The ASD-231i is a multi-standard, fully digital, 12-bit decoder with 3D and 2D adaptive decoding
capabilities allowing optimal picture quality with virtually no cross-color or cross-luma artifacts. A
built-in Time-Base Corrector (TBC) supports unstable (VHS) inputs. The TBC mode offers an
auto decoding filter selection which automatically switches between comb and bandsplit filtering
on the luminance path only.
The ASD-231i offers the possibility of connecting a reference input for complete studio
integration; it synchronizes serial 4:2:2 video to a local reference input. If no external reference is
detected, the ASD-231i locks on to the composite input.
If the input signal degrades or disappears, the ASD-231i can be set to freeze on the last error-
free field, switch to black, or disable the output 4:2:2 signals.
For those audio users requiring video delay tracking, a video processing delay signal provides
the ASD-231i input-output delay at all times.
The ASD-231i, with its built-in frame synchronizer and Automatic Gain Control supports stable,
unstable, and satellite inputs. All four 4:2:2 serial digital video signals respect the SMPTE 259M-
C standard. Also, the serial digital video outputs carry EDH data according to the SMPTE RP165
standard. Additionnally, the ASD-231i has a built-in color bars test signal.
The ASD-231i is a member of the
imaging
family of digital video modules and therefore requires
the
imaging
Quartet,
imaging
Symphonie, or
imaging
Solo frame for mounting and power.
