Features
1 Features
The channel is set by an on-chip high-speed I
2
C compatible bus receiver. A Phase-Locked Loop (PLL)
tunes the modulator over the full UHF range. The modulator incorporates a sound subcarrier oscillator
and uses a second PLL to derive 4.5, 5.5, 6.0, and 6.5MHz subcarrier frequencies. These frequencies are
selectable using the bus.
The modulation standard is set to System B/G.
The picture-to-sound ratio is adjusted using the bus. In addition, an on-chip video test pattern generator can
be turned ON with a 1KHz audio test signal.
Compared with the MC44BC374C, this modulator has one IIC programming difference, a hardware
standby mode in addition to the software standby mode, and no logic output port.
Compared with the MC44BC374T, this modulator has a different start-up channel.
The MC44BC374T1 also has the following features:

Device Overview
2 Device Overview
Figure 2 shows a simplified block diagram of the MC44BC374T1device.
The MC44BC374T1 device has three main sections:
1. A high speed I
2
C-compatible bus section
2. A PLL section to synthesize the UHF/VHF output channel frequency (from an integrated
UHF oscillator, divided for VHF output)
3. A modulator section, which accepts audio and video inputs, then uses them to modulates
the UHF/VHF carrier
An on-chip video test pattern generator with an audio test signal is included. The MC44BC374T1 is
designed to operate as a B/G standard modulator. High frequency BiCMOS technology allows integration
of the UHF tank circuit and certain filtering functions.

This device contains protection circuitry to guard
against damage due to high static voltage or electric
fields. However, precautions must be taken to avoid
applications of any voltage higher than maximum rated
voltages to this high impedance circuit. For proper
operation, input and output voltages should be
constrained to the ranges indicated in the
Recommended Operating Conditions.
