3.1.1 Video Standards
The Bt860/861 supports worldwide video standards, including NTSC-M
(N. America, Taiwan, Japan), PAL-B, D, G, H, I (Europe, Asia), PAL-M (Brazil),
PAL-N (Uruguay, Paraguay), PAL-Nc (Argentina), PAL-60, NTSC-443, and
SECAM.
Table 3-1 lists the target video timing and amplitude used to generate the
appropriate register programming for various forms of NTSC, PAL, and SECAM
as listed in Tables 3-2, 3-3, and 3-4 respectively. These tables provide the
programming values of only those registers required to create that particular
video standard. Ancillary data, input configuration, and ignored or common value
register values are not shown. Video parameter registers which are not relevant to
a particular standard are described as such in the register detail section of this
document.
Table 3-2 lists the register values required to program the various forms of
PAL and NTSC in ITU-R BT.601 resolution, and Table 3-3 lists the register
values required to program the various forms of PAL and NTSC in square pixel
resolution. Table 3-4 lists register values required to program the encoder for
SECAM output, with and without synchronization bottleneck pulses.
