Working principle analysis of the unit
1. NTSC signals flow:
Antenna signal will be send to tuner TDST-H021F, then Tuner will be demodulating and output standard video signal TV-CVBS, and sound SIF signal. TV-CVBS will send to the master control IC MT5385 to video decode, de-interlace and scaler, then output LVDS level drive for panel display. The sound IF (SIF) will be fed into MT5385, after demodulating, pre-amplifying, bass adjusting and volume control, the sound signal will be transform into digital I2S signal and sent to digital amplifier TAS5707.
2. Composite/Component signal flow
Composite signal and Component signal will be fed to MT5385 to perform video decode, deinterlace and scaler, then output LVDS drive level for panel display. Audio signal from Composite/Component terminal via matched resistance is fed to MT5385 to bass adjust and volume control, the sound signal will be transform into digital I2S signal and sent to digital amplifier TAS5707.
3. HDMI signal flow
Two HDMI video signals are directly fed to the master control IC MT5385 to digital decode, image scale, then output LVDS drive level for panel display. HDMI audio signal via decoder built-in MT5385 to bass adjust and volume control, the sound signal will be transform into digital I2S signal and sent to digital amplifier TAS5707.
4. USB signal flow
USB signal via USB connector sent to MT5385 and its A/D conversion to YPbPr output for MT5385, then output R/G/B of 24 bit to back end module to Video decode, de-interlace and image scale, then send to LVDS level drive for panel display. Sound signal of USB signal via matched resistance a nd sent to MT5385 to bass adjust and volume control, the sound signal will be transform into digital I2S signal and sent to digital amplifier TAS5707.
5. SPDIF signal flow
The master control IC MT5385 will transfer digital sound signal out by format Dobly Digital or PCM
