APPENDIX 4—WIDE SCREEN SIGNALING
The ADV7170/ADV7171 support wide screen signaling (WSS) conforming to the standard. WSS data is transmitted on Line 23.
WSS data can only be transmitted when the ADV7170/ADV7171 are configured in PAL mode. The WSS data is 14 bits long; the function
of each of these bits is as shown below.
The WSS data is preceded by a run-in sequence and a start code (see Figure 58). The bits are output from the configuration registers in
the following order:
C/W20 = W0, C/W21 = W1, C/W22 = W2, C/W23 = W3, C/W24 = W4, C/W25 = W5, C/W26 = W6, C/W27 = W7, C/W10 = W8,
C/W11 = W9, C/W12 = W10, C/W13 = W11, C/W14 = W12, C/W15 = W13.
If Bit C/W07 is set to a Logic Level 1, it enables the WSS data to be transmitted on Line 23. The latter portion of Line 23 (42.5 μs from the
falling edge of
HSYNC
) is available for the insertion of video.
