4 TM-75/76 External Signals
This section explains how the external signals (HD and VD) and shutter trigger signal (TRIG) must be
fed in External sync (HD, VD sync) and Reset-Restart operation.
4.1 External HD
When external HD is supplied to pin #6 of the 12-pin connector, the TM-75/76 automatically switches
the clock to phase-lock to the external clock via HD PLL (phase lock loop). The PLL detects the leading
edge of external HD and Phase compare with the internal HD. Then PLL circuit generates internal clock
to phase-lock with the external clock. Therefore, the leading edges of both external and internal HD are
in exactly the same position. The PLL capture range is ±5% of fHD (=15.734KHz: EIA, 15.625: CCIR).
It is, however, advisable to stay within ±1% of fHD frequency to assure the best PLL jitter
characteristics. Without the presence of external HD, the TM-75/76 maintains the internal sync. The
input impedance of external HD and VD is 75Ω at factory set. A high-impedance option is also
available.
4.2 External VD
The TM-75/76 interface circuit deliberately delays external VD by two pixel clock (14 nsec) to ensure
the stable reset of VD in relation to external HD.
FIGURE 4. External Vd Delay Timing
For HD, VD external sync operation, apply VD to pin #7 of the 12-pin connector. The input impedance
is 75Ω. The VD reset range is from 244H to 1023.5H. For normal RS-170 operation, the VD must be
interlace scan at 262.5H (59.94 Hz = 16.7 msec). At 525H, it generates one full frame timing. The
integer (i.e. 262) reset makes non-interlace sync operation. Half H number (i.e. 262.5) makes interlace
scanning.
Note: The TM-76 vertical scan is 625H. VD is defined as 312.5H (50Hz).
4.3 Reset-Restart VD
For Reset-Restart VD operation, VD is asynchronous in relation to any previous VD. Depending on
field or frame mode, however, once the first VD is asynchronously set, consecutive VD must be
generated to obtain proper images. I n general, the first field in field mode or the first frame in frame
mode is not usable because they are previous images prior to reset. A frame grabber has to know which
frame or field to capture. External HD must be applied for this operation.
