GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The SAA7120; SAA7121 encodes digital YUV video data
to an NTSC or PAL CVBS or S-Video signal.
The circuit accepts CCIR compatible YUV data with
720 active pixels per line in 4 : 2 : 2 multiplexed formats,
for example MPEG decoded data. It includes a sync/clock
generator and on-chip DACs.
