FS403

Product Summary

The FS403 is a PC to TV Video Scan Converter. It accepts many input resolutions and rates and converts them to NTSC or PAL standards compliant with SMPTE-170M and CCIR-656 standards. Also available as output options are VGA 640 x 480 at 60Hz progressive, SVGA 800 x 600 at 60Hz progressive, and 100 Hz interlaced. The FS403 has a programmable down scaler to fit the incoming resolution to the output display format. Within the FS400 are capture and encoder engines separated by the frame buffer memory controller. Required external components are minimal: a single 16M SDRAM memory, clocks and passive parts. The applications of the FS403 include PC video out, PC ready TV’s, Video Text Displays, Web Appliances, PC-to-TV Scan Converter Peripherals, and Video Kiosks.
