STV224X, STV228X, STV223X - FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
3 FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The STV224XH/228XH is an integrated device – Built-in sound bandpass.
that processes PIF, SIF, Video and Chroma sig-
nals while scanning for PAL, SECAM and NTSC
standards. It includes a base band chroma delay
line, Video, SVHS and audio switches.
– PLL FM Demodulator for 4.5, 5.5, 6.0 or 6.5 MHz
carriers. The Sound Standard is selected by the
MCU. The FM demodulator VCO is automatically
calibrated using the chroma crystal VCO refer-
ence frequency. The FM Demodulator VCO is

3.1.1 Power Supplies
independently of the chroma crystal VCO fre-
quency, which is either 4.4 MHz or 3.5 MHz. For
VCCIF: 5 V power supply dedicated to IF proces-
sors. GNDIF is the ground reference of these
each sound carrier frequency, the IC sends an
indication of the sound subcarrier level to the
parts.
MCU so that it can select the proper standard.
VCCD: 5 V power supply dedicated to I²C bus and
digital parts. GNDD is the ground reference of
) these parts.
t(s VCC1: 8 V power supply for video switches, scan-
ning part and the chroma decoder. GND 1 is the
c ground reference of all these functions.
u VCC2: 8 V power supply for the luminance, RGB
d processing parts audio switch and internal CVBS
ro output. GND2 is the ground reference of these
parts.
P 3.1.2 Picture Intermediate Frequency (PIF)
te – AGC amplifier.
– PLL synchronous demodulator. Bus-controlled
le VCO for integrated tuning of the external LC res-
o onator. For a 38.9 MHz VCO, the LC coil specifi-
s cation has to be:
b C = 39pF, f = 44 MHz ±2% (LC not connected).
For a 33.9 MHz VCO (L’), the VCO can be
O switched via the bus control.
- – Digital AFC via bus.
) – IF Automatic Gain Control (AGC)
t(s Negative modulation: top sync regulation, regu-
lation of overmodulated signals (overmodulation
c regulation circuit enabled through bus control).
u Positive modulation: main regulation on white
d level with black level limitation.
ro – Tuner-delayed AGC with bus control for AGC
gain and threshold. Tuner AGC output status can
P be read in I²C bus read register.
te – CVBS output with two bus-controlled ampli-
tudes. CVBS output at 2 VPP if external sound
letrap is not connected (QSS mode, for example).
o CVBS output at 2.3 VPP if external sound trap is
connected.
bs 3.1.3 Sound Intermediate Frequency (SIF) and
In Normal mode, the maximum FM deviation is
200 kHz. In Audio FM Wide mode (BGDKI), the
maximum FM deviation is 400 kHz. The Audio
FM Wide mode of the STV224XH must be used
in QSS applications only, using standard specific
SAW filters (DK SAW filter or BG SAW filter).
– The sound subcarrier level is valid when the FM
Demodulation VCO is calibrated. This informa-
tion can be read via the I²C Bus.
– Bus controls for FM de-emphasis (50 or 75 µs)
and FM deviation ±25 or ±50 kHz).
– AM demodulator.
– Sound demodulator output: either an AM or FM
signal can be the output for the Mono chassis
– Sound subcarriers for the Stereo chassis.
3.1.4 Audio Switch
– One SCART switch.
– Bus-controlled volume and mute. Zero-crossing
function on volume control.
– Automatic Volume Levelling (AVL) function can
be enabled via the I²C bus.
– AVL status (Min. or Max. AVL Gain) can be read
in I²C bus register.
– The AM sound can be selected on the main au-
dio output for the Stereo chassis.
3.1.5 Surface Acoustic Wave (SAW) Filter
Switch Control
– SAW filter switch control pin is available in the
TQFP64 package. The SAW filter switch control
pin is used to select the correct SAW filter char-
acteristics (e.g.: M/N or BGDK characteristics).
In a multi-standard chassis, two output voltages
are selected via the I²C bus (low level voltage at
0.4 V Max., and high level voltage at 4 V Min.).
Sound Demodulators
3.1.6 Video Switches
– QSS structure.
– SIF Automatic Gain Control (QSS mode).
– Video switch with three CVBS inputs and one
CVBS output (CVBSOUT1) which may be used
to drive a teletext decoder.
