System Building Blocks
17MB27 chassis main blocks are as follows:
•Analog Front End : VCTI (Microcontroller+Video Proccessor+Audio Proccessor+IF Demodulator+
Teletext Decoder+ OSD Generator)
•Back End : MST517a-M, MST507a-M (Scaler, Deinterlacer, OSD Generator)
Analog Front End
17MB27 main board consists of two major blocks. The first block is analog front-end and this block is
handled by VCTI chip that is highly multifunctional. VCTI performs Tuner IF demodulation, CVBS,
RGB, SVHS and audio input selection and processing. The audio processor (MSP) supports equalizer,
tone control, volume control, AVL, surround effect etc. The video processor (VSP) handles video
processing such as color standard detection and demodulation, picture alignment (brightness, contrast,
color etc.). The IC also has a teletext decoder with fastext memory. The processed video output is sent to
MST5x7A-M, scaler/deinterlacer in RGB format together with a composite sync.
The TV tuner is PLL controlled symmetrical IF output type. The IF signal is filtered by a single SAW
filter. Inter-carrier sound demodulation is performed by the system. After the SAW filter block, IF signal
is processed by VCTI IF demodulator. Audio signal is digitally filtered in the IF demodulator block. The
same IF signal is buffered and sent to DVB-T module card, tdm1300.
Since VCTI can handle all the audio processing, there is no need for additional audio processor solution on
the board. MSP has two audio inputs which are assigned to the Scart in L/R and Audio Switch L/R output.
MSP has three audio outputs which are assigned to the headphone amplifier L/R input, audio amplifier
L/R input and Audio switch L/R input. The board employs TDA2822M and TDA1308 to drive speaker
and headphone outputs, respectively. Switching control for other audio inputs and outputs (HDMI, Back
AV, PC, DVD, and DVB-T) is achieved by an I2C controlled audio switch (TEA6422).
Back End
MST5x7A-M has two ADC inputs. First ADC input is assigned to the VCTI RGB output. Other
RGB/YPbPr inputs are multiplexed for the second ADC input. HDMI receiver ANX9021 analog output,
VGA RGB input and the synchronization signals are multiplexed by a primary RGB switch (PI5V512).
MST5x7A-M has an embedded LVDS transmitter. It can be configured as either single LVDS, or dual
LVDS output.
