2. OSSC scanconverter User Manual fw 0 26 1 General info OSSC is a low latency video digitizer and scanconverter designed mainly for connecting retro video game consoles and home computers into modern displays It converts analog RGB component video into digital format and doubles or triples scanlines of a single frame if necessary to generate a valid mode for digital TVs or monitors The following list summarizes the current features detection and digitization of various video modes from 240p to 1080p linedouble support for 240p 480i 288p 576i linetriple support for 240p with 4 different sampling modes very low latency less than 2 input scanlines single field deinterlace for 480i 576i minimal latency overhead with decent image quality quick recover from input video mode change e g 240p lt gt 480i all video processing done in RGB domain no conversion to YCbCr multiple inputs supporting various formats e RGBS via SCART connector e RGBHV RGBS via VGA connector e YPbPr RGsB via 3xRCA connector full range 24 bit RGB output through HDMI emulated scanlines with configurable strength configurable mask for overscan area Selectable sampling configuration for 480p input DTV 480p or VGA 640x480 Selectable CSC configuration for YPbPr source Rec 601 or Rec 709 2 Board setup and usage The current prototype board PCB v1 0 requires the following for operation e A power supply DC 5V min 1A 2 1mm 5 5mm barrel plug connec
