GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The SAA526xPS ICs are single-chip 10-page 625-line
World System Teletext (WST) decoders with a high level
command interface, SAFARI compatible.
It has been designed so that the overall system cost is kept
to a minimum. This has been achieved through the
capability of the device to be driven from a single +5 V
power supply, low cost 12 MHz crystal oscillator and the
high level command interface, which offers the benefit of
low software overhead in the TV microcontroller.
The SAA526xPS offers automatic detection of Fastext or
TOP transmissions. The device also incorporates a facility
to detect the pages in the transmission, which allows only
transmitted pages to be selected by page-up and
page-down.
SAA5262 and SAA5263 provide Automatic Channel
Installation (ACI) information.
SAA5263 provides access to Electronic Programme Guide
(EPG) information.

digital ground 1
serial clock input 1 (NVRAM)
serial data input/output 1 (NVRAM)
slave address input: LOW selects 58H; HIGH selects 60H
field polarity input: LOW selects first half line; HIGH selects second half line at the start of an
even field
horizontal sync mode control input: LOW selects HSYNC on rising edge
vertical sync mode control input. LOW selects VSYNC on rising edge
power-down imminent input: this input should be pulled LOW to indicate that the system is
about to lose power
phase-lock output: HIGH indicates that the system is phase-locked to the CVBS input
analog ground
CVBS input: this signal is applied via a 100 nF capacitor (nominal input 1 V (p-p)
this pin should be connected to ground if unused
black level input: a 100 nF capacitor should be connected to V
SSA
reference current input for analog circuits: for correct operation a 27 kΩ resistor should be
connected to V
SSA
Frame output for use in non-interlaced displays: during teletext off, teletext mixed with TV
picture and subtitles this pin is inactive. In full teletext mode this pin provides a 25 Hz square
wave. FRAME = 1 = odd, FRAME = 0 = even.
digital ground 2
contrast reduction: active LOW output which allows selective contrast reduction of the
television picture to enhance a mixed mode display
picture on output: HIGH indicates that a TV picture is present and that the SAA526xPS is in
TV mode, mix mode, subtitle mode or news flash mode
RGB reference input: drive level reference for RGB outputs
blue dot rate character output of the blue colour information: the high voltage level is defined
by the RGBREF pin (can source 4 mA)
