Video decoders play a very important role in the TV receivers. This is especially true for NTSC-based TVs. The design and implementation of the video decoder with two-line delay comb filter are presented. Moreover, the works includes the low-power SRAM (static random access memory) in the comb filter for storing scanning line data and the low-power small-area I/O cells for transmitting digital data.
A digital phase lock loop (PLL) in the proposed video decoder uses a ROM-less 4£c-based direct digital frequency synthesizer (DDFS)-based digital control oscillator to resolve the false locking problem. Two 20-tap transposed FIRs (finite-duration impulse response filter) are used to implement the low pass filters (LPF) in the chrominance demodulator. Besides, the unnecessary decimals of the coefficients of the LPF are truncated to reduce hardware cost.
The proposed SRAM takes advantage of a negative word-line voltage controlling the access transistors of the memory cell to reduce the leakage current in the standby mode. Besides, a memory bank partition scheme and a clock gating scheme are also used to save more power.
Finally, a fully different concept from current I/O designs is proposed. The novel I/O cell takes advantage of reducing output voltage swing as well as transistors with different threshold voltages such that the area and power consumption of overall chip can be drastically reduced.
