GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ADV
7125 is a triple high speed, digital-to-analog converter
on a single monolithic chip. It consists of three high speed, 8-bit
video DACs with complementary outputs, a standard TTL input
interface, and a high impedance, analog output current source.
The ADV7125 has three separate 8-bit-wide input ports. A single
5 V/3.3 V power supply and clock are all that are required to make
the part functional. The ADV7125 has additional video control
signals, composite
SYNC and BLANK, as well as a power-
save mode.
The ADV7125 is fabricated in a 5 V CMOS process. Its mono-
lithic CMOS construction ensures greater functionality with
lower power dissipation. The ADV7125 is available in a 48-lead
LQFP package.
PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS
1. 330 MSPS (3.3 V only) throughput
2. Guaranteed monotonic to eight bits
3. Compatible with a wide variety of high resolution color
graphics systems, including RS-343A and RS-170

NOTES
1
Stresses above those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings may cause perma-
nent damage to the device. This is a stress rating only; functional operation of the
device at these or any other conditions above those listed in the operational
sections of this specification is not implied. Exposure to absolute maximum rating
conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
2
Analog output short circuit to any power supply or common can be of an indefinite
duration.
CAUTION
ESD (electrostatic discharge) sensitive device. Electrostatic charges as high as 4000 V readily
accumulate on the human body and test equipment and can discharge without detection. Although the
ADV7125 features proprietary ESD protection circuitry, permanent damage may occur on devices
subjected to high energy electrostatic discharges. Therefore, proper ESD precautions are recommended
to avoid performance degradation or loss of functionality.

G0G7,
Red, Green, and Blue Pixel Data Inputs (TTL Compatible). Pixel data is latched on the rising edge

of CLOCK. R0, G0, and B0 are the least significant data bits. Unused pixel data inputs should
4148
R0R7
be connected to either the regular PCB power or ground plane.
11
BLANK
Composite Blank Control Input (TTL Compatible). A logic zero on this control input drives the
analog outputs, IOR, IOB, and IOG, to the blanking level. The
BLANK signal is latched on the
rising edge of CLOCK. While
BLANK is a logical zero, the R0R7, G0G7, and B0B7 pixel
inputs are ignored.
12
SYNC
Composite Sync Control Input (TTL Compatible). A logical zero on the
SYNC input switches
off a 40 IRE current source. This is internally connected to the IOG analog output.
SYNC does
not override any other control or data input; therefore, it should only be asserted during the
blanking interval.
SYNC is latched on the rising edge of CLOCK. If sync information is not
required on the green channel, the
SYNC input should be tied to logical zero.

CLOCK
Clock Input (TTL Compatible). The rising edge of CLOCK latches the R0R7, G0G7, B0B7,
SYNC, and BLANK pixel and control inputs. It is typically the pixel clock rate of the video
system. CLOCK should be driven by a dedicated TTL buffer.

IOR, IOG, IOB Differential Red, Green, and Blue Current Outputs (High Impedance Current Sources). These
RGB video outputs are specified to directly drive RS-343A and RS-170 video levels into a doubly

tied to ground.
28, 32, 34
IOR, IOG, IOB
Red, Green, and Blue Current Outputs. These high impedance current sources are capable of
directly driving a doubly terminated 75
coaxial cable. All three current outputs should have
similar output loads whether or not they are all being used.

TERMINOLOGY
Blanking Level
The level separating the
SYNC portion from the video portion
of the waveform. Usually referred to as the front porch or back
porch. At 0 IRE units, it is the level that will shut off the picture
tube, resulting in the blackest possible picture.
Color Video (RGB)
This usually refers to the technique of combining the three
primary colors of red, green, and blue to produce color pictures
within the usual spectrum. In RGB monitors, three DACs are
required, one for each color.
Sync Signal (
SYNC)
The position of the composite video signal that synchronizes the
scanning process.
Grayscale
The discrete levels of video signal between reference black and
reference white levels. An 8-bit DAC contains 256 different levels.
Raster Scan
The most basic method of sweeping a CRT one line at a time to
generate and display images.
Reference Black Level
The maximum negative polarity amplitude of the video signal.
Reference White Level
The maximum positive polarity amplitude of the video signal.
Sync Level
The peak level of the
SYNC signal.
Video Signal
The portion of the composite video signal that varies in grayscale
levels between reference white and reference black. Also referred
to as the picture signal, this is the portion that may be visually
observed.

CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
The ADV7125 contains three 8-bit DACs, with three input
channels, each containing an 8-bit register. Also integrated on
board the part is a reference amplifier. CRT control functions
BLANK and SYNC are integrated on board the ADV7125.
Digital Inputs
Twenty-four bits of pixel data (color information) R0R7, G0G7,
and B0B7 are latched into the device on the rising edge of
each clock cycle. This data is presented to the three 8-bit DACs
and then converted to three analog (RGB) output waveforms
(See Figure 2).

Figure 2. Video Data Input/Output
The ADV7125 has two additional control signals that are latched
to the analog video outputs in a similar fashion.
BLANK and
SYNC are each latched on the rising edge of CLOCK to maintain
synchronization with the pixel data stream.
The
BLANK and SYNC functions allow for the encoding of
these video synchronization signals onto the RGB video output.
This is done by adding appropriately weighted current sources
to the analog outputs, as determined by the logic levels on the
BLANK and SYNC digital inputs. Figure 3 shows the analog
output, RGB video waveform of the ADV7125. The influence of
SYNC and BLANK on the analog video waveform is illustrated.
Table I details the resultant effect on the analog outputs of
BLANK and SYNC.
All these digital inputs are specified to accept TTL logic levels.
Clock Input
The CLOCK input of the ADV7125 is typically the pixel clock
rate of the system. It is also known as the dot rate. The dot rate,
and thus the required CLOCK frequency, will be determined by
the on-screen resolution, according to the following equation:
Dot Rate = (Horiz Res)
(Vert Res) (Refresh Rate)/(Retrace Factor)
Horiz Res = Number of Pixels/Line
Vert Res = Number of Lines/Frame
Refresh Rate = Horizontal Scan Rate. This is the rate at which
the screen must be refreshed, typically 60 Hz for a noninterlaced
system or 30 Hz for an interlaced system.
Retrace Factor = Total Blank Time Factor. This takes into account
that the display is blanked for a certain fraction of the total
duration of each frame (e.g., 0.8).

MHz
The required CLOCK frequency is thus 78.6 MHz.
All video data and control inputs are latched into the ADV7125
on the rising edge of CLOCK, as previously described in the
Digital Inputs section. It is recommended that the CLOCK
input to the ADV7125 be driven by a TTL buffer (e.g., 74F244).
Video Synchronization and Control
The ADV7125 has a single composite sync (
SYNC) input con-
trol. Many graphics processors and CRT controllers have the
ability to generate horizontal sync (HSYNC), vertical sync
(VSYNC), and composite
SYNC.
In a graphics system that does not automatically generate a
composite
SYNC signal, the inclusion of some additional logic
circuitry enables the generation of a composite
SYNC signal.
The sync current is internally connected directly to the IOG
output, thus encoding video synchronization information onto
the green video channel. If it is not required to encode sync
information onto the ADV7125, the
SYNC input should be tied
to logic low.
Reference Input
The ADV7125 contains an on-board voltage reference. The
V
REF
pin is normally terminated to V
AA
through a 0.1
F capaci-
tor. Alternatively, the part could, if required, be overdriven by
an external 1.23 V reference (AD1580).
A resistance, R
SET,
connected between the R
SET
pin and GND
determines the amplitude of the output video level according to
Equations 1 and 2 for the ADV7125:

*Applies to the ADV7125 only when SYNC is being used. If SYNC is not being
encoded onto the green channel, Equation 1 will be similar to Equation 2.
Using a variable value of R
SET
allows for accurate adjustment of
the analog output video levels. Use of a fixed 560
R
SET
resistor
yields the analog output levels quoted in the specification page.
These values typically correspond to the RS-343A video wave-
form values as shown in Figure 3.
DACs
The ADV7125 contains three matched 8-bit DACs. The DACs
are designed using an advanced, high speed, segmented archi-
tecture. The bit currents corresponding to each digital input are
routed to either the analog output (bit = "1") or GND (bit = "0")
by a sophisticated decoding scheme. As all this circuitry is on
one monolithic device, matching between the three DACs is
optimized. As well as matching, the use of identical current sources
in a monolithic design guarantees monotonicity and low glitch.
The on-board operational amplifier stabilizes the full-scale
output current against temperature and power supply variations.
Analog Outputs
The ADV7125 has three analog outputs, corresponding to the
red, green, and blue video signals.
The red, green, and blue analog outputs of the ADV7125 are
high impedance current sources. Each one of these three RGB
current outputs is capable of directly driving a 37.5
load,
such as a doubly terminated 75
coaxial cable. Figure 4a
shows the required configuration for each of the three RGB
outputs connected into a doubly terminated 75
load. This
arrangement develops RS-343A video output voltage levels
across a 75
monitor.
A suggested method of driving RS-170 video levels into a 75
monitor is shown in Figure 4b. The output current levels of the
DACs remain unchanged, but the source termination resistance,

, on each of the three DACs is increased from 75
to 150 .

Load Terminations available from Analog Devices,
(www.analog.com/library/applicationNotes/video/AN205.pdf).
Figure 3 shows the video waveforms associated with the three RGB
outputs driving the doubly terminated 75
load of Figure 4a. As
well as the gray scale levels (black level to white level), the diagram
also shows the contributions of
SYNC and BLANK for the
ADV7125. These control inputs add appropriately weighted cur-
rents to the analog outputs, producing the specific output level
requirements for video applications. Table I details how the
SYNC
and
BLANK inputs modify the output levels.
Grayscale Operation
The ADV7125 can be used for standalone, grayscale (mono-
chrome) or composite video applications (i.e., only one channel
used for video information). Any one of the three channels, red,
green, or blue, can be used to input the digital video data. The
two unused video data channels should be tied to logical zero.
The unused analog outputs should be terminated with the same
load as that for the used channel. In other words, if the red

channel is used and IOR is terminated with a doubly terminated
75
load (37.5 ), IOB and IOG should be terminated with

resistors (See Figure 5).

Video Output Buffers
The ADV7125 is specified to drive transmission line loads, as
are most monitors rated. The analog output configurations to
drive such loads are described in the Analog Outputs section
and are illustrated in Figure 6. However, in some applications,
it may be required to drive long transmission line cable lengths.
Cable lengths greater than 10 meters can attenuate and distort
high frequency analog output pulses. The inclusion of output
buffers will compensate for some cable distortion. Buffers with
large full power bandwidths and gains between two and four will
be required. These buffers will also need to be able to supply
sufficient current over the complete output voltage swing. Analog
Devices produces a range of suitable op amps for such applica-
tions. These include the AD84x series of monolithic op amps.
In very high frequency applications (80 MHz), the AD8061 is
recommended. More information on line driver buffering
circuits is given in the relevant op amp data sheets.
Use of buffer amplifiers also allows implementation of other video
standards besides RS-343A and RS-170. Altering the gain com-
ponents of the buffer circuit will result in any desired video level.

PC Board Layout Considerations
The ADV7125 is optimally designed for lowest noise performance,
both radiated and conducted noise. To complement the excel-
lent noise performance of the ADV7125, it is imperative that
great care be given to the PC board layout. Figure 7 shows a
recommended connection diagram for the ADV7125.
The layout should be optimized for lowest noise on the ADV7125
power and ground lines. This can be achieved by shielding the
digital inputs and providing good decoupling. The lead length
between groups of V
AA
and GND pins should by minimized to
minimize inductive ringing.
Ground Planes
The ADV7125 and associated analog circuitry should have a
separate ground plane referred to as the analog ground plane.
This ground plane should connect to the regular PCB ground
plane at a single point through a ferrite bead, as illustrated in
Figure 7. This bead should be located as close as possible
(within three inches) to the ADV7125.
The analog ground plane should encompass all ADV7125
ground pins, voltage reference circuitry, power supply bypass
circuitry, the analog output traces, and any output amplifiers.
The regular PCB ground plane area should encompass all the
digital signal traces, excluding the ground pins, leading up to
the ADV7125.
Power Planes
The PC board layout should have two distinct power planes,
one for analog circuitry and one for digital circuitry. The analog
power plane should encompass the ADV7125 (V
AA
) and all
associated analog circuitry. This power plane should be con-
nected to the regular PCB power plane (V
CC
) at a single point
through a ferrite bead, as illustrated in Figure 6. This bead
should be located within three inches of the ADV7125.
The PCB power plane should provide power to all digital logic
on the PC board, and the analog power plane should provide
power to all ADV7125 power pins, voltage reference circuitry,
and any output amplifiers.
The PCB power and ground planes should not overlay portions
of the analog power plane. Keeping the PCB power and ground
planes from overlaying the analog power plane will contribute to
a reduction in plane-to-plane noise coupling.
Supply Decoupling
Noise on the analog power plane can be further reduced by the
use of multiple decoupling capacitors (see Figure 7).
Optimum performance is achieved by the use of 0.1
F ceramic
capacitors. Each of the two groups of V
AA
should be individually
decoupled to ground. This should be done by placing the capaci-
tors as close as possible to the device with the capacitor leads as
short as possible, thus minimizing lead inductance.
It is important to note that while the ADV7125 contains circuitry
to reject power supply noise, this rejection decreases with fre-
quency. If a high frequency switching power supply is used, the
designer should pay close attention to reducing power supply
noise. A dc power supply filter (Murata BNX002) will provide
EMI suppression between the switching power supply and the
main PCB. Alternatively, consideration could be given to using
a three-terminal voltage regulator.
Digital Signal Interconnect
The digital signal lines to the ADV7125 should be isolated as
much as possible from the analog outputs and other analog
circuitry. Digital signal lines should not overlay the analog
power plane.
Due to the high clock rates used, long clock lines to the ADV7125
should be avoided to minimize noise pickup.
Any active pull-up termination resistors for the digital inputs
should be connected to the regular PCB power plane (V
CC
) and
not the analog power plane.

ADV7125
Analog Signal Interconnect
The ADV7125 should be located as close as possible to the
output connectors, thus minimizing noise pickup and reflections
due to impedance mismatch.
The video output signals should overlay the ground plane and
not the analog power plane, thereby maximizing the high fre-
quency power supply rejection.
For optimum performance, the analog outputs should each have
a source termination resistance to ground of 75
(doubly termi-
nated 75
configuration). This termination resistance should
be as close as possible to the ADV7125 to minimize reflections.
