Standards Converter and Multi-standard Time Base Corrector

See CDM-640 if you also need a VGA up-converter

Standards Converter

The CYP CDM-640A accepts PAL, PALM, PALN, NTSC, NTSC443 & SECAM input as Composite or S-Video. It then comb-filters, level adjusts, resamples and stabilises the signal (completely removing all video interference such as copy protection pulses) to output whatever standard you select. Input standard selection can be Automatic or Manual.

Multi-standard TBC

When the input and output standards are the same (e.g. PAL in and PAL out) the unit functions as a high-quality adjustable Timebase Corrector.

S-Video (Y/C)
and Composite
Video Inputs

Because the CDM-640A has S-Video inputs the higher picture quality of S-Video is maintained. A digital comb-filter converts Composite video input to high quality Y/C for  internal processing and improved picture quality.

Steady Levels

An automatic gain control (AGC) keeps the output levels normal even if the input level is high or low or changing. Range of control:- 4:1

Adjustments

Front-panel user-adjustable settings for Brightness, Contrast, Colour Saturation and Tint (NTSC only) of the video input are provided. These settings are retained when the unit is off.

Colour Bars

When there is no video input, the CDM-640A outputs 100% colour bars in the selected output standard.
