13.5 and 27 MHz are usually associated with digital video. SD video with 720 x 
576 has a pixel clock of 13.5 MHz, and the corresponding SDI bit clock is 270 
MHz.

Maybe you can shed some light on the common xtal frequencies table where

SD-SDI 270MHz, then there is the HD-SDI.
Brooke, the 77.503KHz you mention for the DCF77: are you sure the IF is
3KHz? 77.503KHz is 77.5KHz + 3Hz...

This is a typical frequency used in IS-136 TDMA cellular handsets and possibly 
base stations.  The value is 400 times the raw bit rate of the channel (48.6 
kHz).

Re: [time-nuts] Why these Crystal Frequencies?

2011-12-15 Thread Rick Karlquist
16.384 MHz is of course 2^14 times 1 kHz.  This was used
as a clock for direct digital synthesizers in signal generators.
Most DDS's can't generate exact frequencies starting from a 10 MHz
clock.  There was  an Agilent arbitrary waveform generator that used this
as a clock because circular memory has a binary length.

The color burst frequency contains factors of 3,5,7,9, and 11, which are
important in terms of how early TV station hardware worked, using
multivibrator type frequency dividers.  11 is about the limit for those.

18 MHz is another digital video frequency.

13,5 MHz is the sampling frequency for luminance samples for SD-SDI 3:4 
video, ITU-R (formerly CCIR) BT.601. The chrominance difference samples 
goes at 6,75 MHz sampling frequency. These samples are 10 bit, so you 
get a 27 MHz rate of 10 bit samples or 270 Mb/s rate of the full SD-SDI 
signal (then only called SDI signal).


18 MHz then relates to that in the 16:9 format variant producing 
according to the same logic a 360 Mb/s rate SDI signal, but it's 
essentially dead.


18 MHz is also used in analog video synthesis as it relates well to many 
signals.


27 MHz is a magic frequency as both PAL and NTSC relates in an easy 
relationship to it.


PAL:
25   * 625 * 432 * 4 = 27 MHz

NTSC:
30/1.001 * 525 * 429 * 4 = 27 MHz

The factor of 4 is for the 4 samples of luminance and chrominance 
differences.


Related frequencies for HD-SDI is:

European
25 * 1125 * 1320 * 4 = 148,5 MHz = 11/2 * 27 MHz

US
30/1.001 * 1125 * 1100 * 4 = 148,35 MHz = 148,5/1.001 MHz = 11/2.002 * 
27 MHz


(Let me tell you that I hate the 1.001 factor for HD-SDI rates)

25 MHz (and to a lesser extent 50 MHz) is used to clock Ethernet PHYs.

[time-nuts] Why these Crystal Frequencies?

2011-12-14 Thread Brooke Clarke

Hi Pete:

Maybe you can shed some light on the common xtal frequencies table where 
there's no explanation given?
http://www.prc68.com/I/pdf/Crystal_Freq.pdf
An answer is not it's an even frequency or it's an even binary frequency. That's true for most of these and the 
factors are part of the table above.

The question is why do they exist?
such as:
32.0 kHz
40.0
75.0
76.79
76.8
76.81
96.0
3.072 MHz
4.0
4.096
5.0
6.0
7.3729
8.0
8.192
9.8304
10.0
11.0
11.0592
11.2896
12.0
12.288
12.352
13.5
14.31818
15.36
16.0
16.384
17.734475
18.0
18.432
19.6608
19.44
22.1184
24.0
24.567
25.0

2011-12-14 Thread Rex

Brooke,

14.31818  is 4x the analog color burst (~3.58)

18.432   divides cleanly for baud rates. I've used it as a PIC clock for 
that. I think some of the others may be too, but I didn't recognize or 
do the math to see.

Re: [time-nuts] Why these Crystal Frequencies?

2011-12-14 Thread Peter Bell
11.0592MHz is another crystal used for accurate baud rates -
especially on MCUs that had a 12MHz maximum clock (like the Intel
8051)
So is 9.8304MHz - used on a number of Mototola (now Freescale) MCUs
17.734475 is 4 times the PAL color burst frequency of 4.433619MHz

I'll see if I can think of anything else.

Pete

Re: [time-nuts] Why these Crystal Frequencies?

2011-12-14 Thread Javier Herrero

A lot of them are derivatives of the 2.4576 UART baud rate gen:


9.8304 = 2.4576 * 4

14.7456 = 2.4576 * 6


19.6608 = 2.4576 * 8

22.1184 = 2.4576 * 9



24.567 = 2.4576 * 10

That is the reason why I've used some of them (14.7456MHz and 
19.6608MHz) for clocking the HC11 variants with 4 and 5MHz internal 
clock (long ago... :) ).


Regards,

Javier

Re: [time-nuts] Why these Crystal Frequencies?

2011-12-14 Thread Steve .
adding to the sub ordinate: 32.768khz is a common resonator / crystal
frequency for Real Time Clocks.  Note this is not time-nut RTC

My general rule of thumb is that anything that will cleanly divide by 2 (a
binary number) can be use for time applications with little or no work in
either hardware or software.
