9.3.3.1 HSYNC Separator
The HSYNC separator extracts the HSYNC signal from the composite sync 
signal using the sampling clock generated by the sync separator clock pulse gen-
erator. This circuit also secures and interpolates the HSYNC signal.
As shown in figure 9-7, noise can cause the HSYNC detection circuit to both 
miss HSYNC pulses and add erroneous ones. The HSYNC separator contains a 
window circuit to correct these errors. The open and close timing for this window 
is set in the HSEP1 and HSEP2 registers, and the unit is the sampling clock for 
the HSYNC separator.
The circuit counts a corrected and interpolated HSYNC signal. If the count is 
greater than that set in the HLOCKLV register, within the interval set in the 
HDISTW register, the HLOCK bit of HVCOND sets to 0, indicating an asyn-
chronous state. This allows the device to determine the quality of the signal.
