The default for this register is 0.
Active Hsync Select
This bit is used under two conditions. It is used to select
the active Hsync when the override bit is set (Bit 4). Alter-
nately, it is used to determine the active Hsync when not
overriding but both Hsyncs are detected.
A 0 enables the clamp timing circuitry controlled by clamp
placement and clamp duration. The clamp position and
duration is counted from the leading edge of Hsync.
0E

A 1 enables the external CLAMP input pin. The three
channels are clamped when the CLAMP signal is active.
The polarity of CLAMP is determined by the Clamp
Polarity bit (Register 0Fh, Bit 6).

is LOW, and it will pass the signal to the ADC when
CLAMP is HIGH.

A Logic 0 means that the circuit will clamp when CLAMP
is HIGH, and it will pass the signal to the ADC when
CLAMP is LOW.
The default setting for this register is 0.
Active Vsync Override
The power-up default value is Clamp Polarity = 1.

This bit is used to override the automatic Vsync selection.
To override, set this bit to Logic 1. When overriding, the
active interface is set via Bit 0 in this register.

COAST Select
This bit is used to select the active coast source. The
choices are the coast input pin or Vsync. If Vsync is selected,
the additional decision of using the Vsync input pin or the
output from the sync separator needs to be made (Register
0E, Bits 1, 0).
