tional description.

Figure 17. 8950DAC Block Diagram

The 8950DAC converts SMPTE 259M (270 Mb/s D1 serial component
digital signal) to Y/B-Y/R-Y, or GBR analog video.

The major functional blocks are:

Serial input and deserializers,

Phase Lock Loop (PLL) 2 times clock generator,

Digital to Analog converter (DAC),

Output Low Pass Filters (LPF) and buffers,

Delay line,

Embedded processor, and

Digital Signal Processing (DSP) Field Programmable Gate Array
(FPGA).
