Super-black signal is disappeared

Hi Anyone,

We want to know a functionality or effect for SD SAV/EAV Step Edge Control bit in SD Mode Register 1 (0x42, Bit7) of ADV7321.

Could you please explain a functionality when the bit enable or disable?

When we should use this bit? We understand, if this bit is enabled then ringing effect is suppressed.

When we enable this bit, we observed a super-black is omitted on a output signal.

We are feeding video data of between 0x01 to 0x0F to ADV7321.

After that, we can not see super-black signal on output of ADV7321 when the Step Edge Control bit is enabled. Why?

Thank you

  • Hi Digital,

    As you correctly point out, the edge control bit is used to reduce ringing on fast edges (Reg 0x42 [7] on ADV7321). However, this bit also controls our support for blacker than black video. When this bit is enabled you will not see video out for video data between 0x01 and 0x0F (blacker than black).

    So in summary, we can only support either blacker-than-black or slope-edge-control on any of our ADV7310/734X/739X/732X  encoders.

    Regards,

    Paul
