Abstract: A circuit for generating a horizontal synchronizing signal of a display includes: a first comparator which is used to compare a luminance signal of a Component Video Connector of the display and a first reference signal to generate a compared signal; a control circuit which is used to generate a first digital controlled signal according to the compared signal; a first digital-to-analog converter which is used to generate the first reference signal according to the first digital controlled signal; a second digital-to-analog converter which is used to generate a second reference signal according to a second digital controlled signal generated by the control circuit, wherein the second digital controlled signal is determined by the first digital controlled signal; and a second comparator which is used to compare the luminance signal and the second reference signal to generate the horizontal synchronizing signal.
Abstract: A half-rate clock data recovery circuit comprises a detector receiving data alternating between even and odd symbols and further receives a four-phase clock. The detector outputs a phase error signal to a phase dissect circuit which outputs an even-symbol phase error and an odd-symbol phase error, which are input to filters to produce first and third control signals. A first 2-bit ADC also receives the even and odd data and outputs even symbol data in accordance with a second phase of the four-phase clock. A second 2-bit ADC also receives the data and outputs odd symbol data in accordance with a fourth phase of the four-phase clock. The even and odd symbol data are input into respective vertical eye monitors which output second and fourth control signals. A quadrature clock generator adjusts the clock based on the control signals. A method uses the half-rate clock data recovery circuit.
Abstract: A camera includes a lens and a sensor. A dynamic mask is arranged at an aperture plane between the lens and the sensor, and a static mask is arranged immediately adjacent to the sensor. Angular, temporal or spatial variations in light rays acquired of a scene by the sensor are mapped to individual pixels of the sensor.
