GS4901B/GS4900B Preliminary Data Sheet
3.4.2 10FID
The 10FID input is a reset pin, which can be used to reset the divider for the 10FID
output signal. In the GS4901B, the 10FID input pin will also reset the divider for the
AFS output signal. This default setting may be modified using the Audio_Control
register of the host interface (see
The GS4901B will reset the phase of the audio clocks to the leading edge of the H
Sync output on line 1 of every output frame in which the 10FID input is HIGH.
If the input reference format does not include a 10 Field ID signal, the external
10FID input pin should be held LOW.
The timing of the 10FID input signal is shown in
Total Line
10FID Input
Line 1, Frame 1 every 'n' frames
Horizontal Sync Input
Line 1 every n frames where:
n = 5 @ 29.97 fps, 30 fps
n = 10 @ 59.94 fps, 60 fps

3.4.3 Automatic Polarity Recognition
To accommodate any standards that employ the polarity of the H and V sync
signals to indicate the format of the display, the GS4901B/GS4900B will recognize
H and V sync polarity and automatically synchronize to the leading edge.
The polarities of the HSYNC and VSYNC signals are reported in bits 3 and 4 of the
Video_Status register. Additionally, bit 2 of this register reports the detection of
either analog or digital input timing. See
for detailed
register descriptions.
