ADV7180
COMB FILTERS
The comb filters of the ADV7180 have been greatly improved to
automatically handle video of all types, standards, and levels of
quality. The NTSC and PAL configuration registers allow the
user to customize comb filter operation, depending on which
video standard is detected (by autodetection) or selected (by
manual programming). In addition to the bits listed in this
section, there are some further internal controls (based on
Analog Devices proprietary algorithms); contact local Analog
Devices field engineers for more information.

NSFSEL[1:0], Split Filter Selection NTSC, Address 0x19
[3:2]
The NSFSEL[1:0] control selects how much of the overall signal
bandwidth is fed to the combs. A narrow split filter selection
results in better performance on diagonal lines, but more dot
crawl in the final output image. The opposite is true for selecting
a wide bandwidth split filter.
