Video Processing Procurement Notes

Verify the manufacturer designation as Harris Corporation or its successors, noting that original Harris semiconductor assets were acquired by other entities. Confirm the 16-PDIP package type and 13.2V supply requirement against current datasheets. Ensure the part is explicitly identified for PAL systems rather than NTSC variants. Check RoHS compliance status as sources indicate non-compliance for this specific revision. Validate active status through authorized distributors.

Video Processing Selection Notes

Select this component when a dedicated PAL-specific TV processor is required for video display applications. It is suitable for designs needing a monolithic solution for chroma processing without external discrete components. Consider the 16-PDIP package constraints for PCB layout. Ensure the application strictly adheres to PAL standards, as this part is not compatible with NTSC systems which require different processing characteristics.

Video Processing Part Context

This component belongs to the Harris Corporation linear video processing family. It is related to similar models like the CA3126E, which targets NTSC systems. The CA3128Q represents the PAL-specific variant within this product line, focusing on television signal integration and display interfacing for regions utilizing the PAL broadcasting standard.

Video Processing Replacement Considerations

Public confirmed substitute part numbers are not available in the provided documentation. Users should consult official Harris successor manufacturers for direct equivalents. Generic video processors may not offer identical PAL-specific integration.
