DESCRIPTION
In addition, it includes the following features: – OSD contrast, – Bandwidth adjustment, – Grey background, – Internal back porch clamping pulse generator. Even though encapsulated in a 24-pin package only, this IC allows any kind of CRT Cathode coupling : – AC coupling with DC restore, – DC coupling with Feed-back from Cathodes, – DC coupling with Cut-Off controls of the Video amplifier (ST Amplifiers TDA9533/9530). As for any ST Video pre-amplifier, the TDA9209 is able to drive a real load without any external interface. One of the main advantages of ST devices is their ability to sink and source currents while most of the devices from our competitors have problems to sink large currents. These driving capabilities combined with an original output stage structure suppress any static current on the output pins and therefore reduce dramatically the power dissipation of the device. Extensive integration combined with high performance and advanced features make the TDA9209 one of the best choice for any CRT Monitor in the 14” to 17” range.
