Analog Devices ADV7186 Product Info

The ADV7186 is a high performance, single chip, multiformat video decoder and processor with integrated LVDS Tx and LVDS Rx. The ADV7186 analog front end comprises single high speed, 10-bit ADC that digitizes the analog video signal. The ADV7186 analog front end supports input resolutions up to SVGA (800 × 600 at 60 Hz). The ADV7186 has 48 pixel pins, of which 24 are inputs and 24 are outputs.

The ADV7186BBCZ-T contains features identical to the ADV7186BBCZ apart from having a TCON (LCD timing control) output in place of the LVDS Tx output and not supporting an LVDS Rx.

The ADV7186BBCZ-TL is a reduced function version of the ADV7186BBCZ-T and does not support external SDRAM. All other functionality is identical to that of the ADV7186BBCZ-T.

The multiformat decoder contains a standard definition processor (SDP) supporting the conversion of PAL, NTSC, and SECAM standards in the form of a composite or an S-Video input signal into a digital ITU-R BT.656 format.

The ADV7186 contains one main component processor (CP) that processes YPbPr and RGB component formats, including RGB graphics. The ADV7186 analog front end supports the decoding of these RGB/YPbPr video signals into a digital YCbCr or RGB pixel output stream. The support for component video includes 525i, 525p, 625i, 625p, 720p, and 1080i standards while QVGA to SVGA graphic rates are supported.

The CP core can also process video with resolutions up to WXGA from the input pixel pins or LVDS Rx.

The video signal processor can perform edge-adaptive intrafield de-interlacing, ensuring excellent performance on low angle edges as well as antiflickering filtering. The video signal processor allows scaling between common video resolutions, enabling up to WXGA output (the output frame rate is always equal to the input field/frame rate). ACE offers improved visual detail. Flip/mirror capability allows for compensation of different ca
