DescriptionGo to the top of this page

The SAA7811 is a single-chip device for high speed DVD-ROM applications. The device contains the following blocks previously contained in separate ICs:

  • channel decoder
  • block decoder
  • servo processor
  • microcontroller.


FeaturesGo to the top of this page

Host interface

  • Enhanced Integrated Drive Electronics (IDE) Advanced Technology Attachment Program Interface (ATAPI) host interface
  • Built-in 12-byte ATAPI Packet command First-In, First-Out (FIFO)
  • Supports Advanced Technology Attachment (ATA) and ATA-2 PIO and multi-word Direct Memory Access (DMA) data transfer modes
  • Supports ATA/ATAPI-4 Ultra DMA transfer modes with data rate up to 33 MBytes/s
  • Configurable as generic DMA interface, for use with external host interface devices
  • Automatic sequencing of ATAPI packet command protocol; including command termination
  • Automatic determination of block length for mode2, form 1 and form 2 sectors (block length transferred is programmable).

Block decoder

  • Supports CD-ROM, CD-R and CD-R/W; CD-DA and DVD-ROM formats
  • Supports real time error detection and correction in hardware for CD-ROM mode
  • CD-ROM error corrector switchable between single or dual pass (both with Error Detection/Correction [EDC])
  • Internal registers are memory-mapped
  • Embedded DVD-video authentication module.

Buffer memory controller

  • Supports up to 2 MBytes of DRAM buffer
  • Block based sector addressing.

Channel decoder

  • Selectable differential and single-ended HF inputs; compatible with TZA1033 (DVDalas2plus) and TZA1020A (Aeger2); single-ended input has bypassable AGC
  • Internal 6-bit ADC
  • Digital PLL and slicer for HF clock regeneration
  • Supports Eight-to-Fourteen Modulation (EFM) and EFM+ demodulation
  • Full CD error correction strategy; t = 2 and e =4
  • On-chip CD error corrector memory with ± 8 frame jitter margin
  • Built-in hardware for double pass DVD error corrector; (can correct 5 errors in C1 frame and 16 errors in C2 frame)
  • Error corrector monitor signal available
  • I²C-bus output available via programmable vampire pins.

Spindle motor control

  • Advanced motor control loop allows Constant Angular Velocity (CAV), Constant Linear Velocity (CLV) and pseudo-CLV playback
  • Support for 3-pin and 1-pin tacho control
  • Motor control via incoming bit stream or tacho.

Speed operation

  • Supports up to 56 x CD-ROM playback
  • Supports up to 10 x DVD-ROM playback.

Multimedia functions and built-in DAC

  • Supports audio playback via DRAM buffer; allows audio discs to be played at higher speeds
  • IEC958 (SPDIF, AES/EBU and DOBM) output with Q to W subcode bits and programmable category code, output at n = 1 rate
  • Built-in digital audio DAC including: -4 x oversampling filter
  • Built-in digital volume control, attenuator and single-sample interpolator
  • Separate left and right channel routing and mute control.

Microcontroller interface

  • Embedded microcontroller can operate as 33 MHz or 67 MHz equivalent 80C51
  • Embedded co-processor for fast multiply, divide, shift, and normalize instructions; supported by C-compilers
  • Co-processor for MSF calculations
  • Memory mapped interfaces to sub functions
  • External microcontroller support
  • Embedded SRAM (1.5 kbytes Xdata, 512 bytes Idata, 224 bytes data and registers)
  • 4 banks: on Idata and registers; for better multi-tasking support
  • External flash EPROM programming support
    • Serial boot possible with empty flash EPROM
    • Internal program upload support.
  • Code space support up to 1 Mbyte through built-in bank switching
  • Debug interface for embedded microcontroller.

Servo processor

  • Switched current analog-to-digital converters for diode and error signal inputs
  • Selectable servo error or servo diode inputs
  • Focus and radial servo loops
  • Automatic closed loop gain control available for focus and radial loops
  • Built-in access procedure with fast track count input
  • High-speed track crossing velocity measurement (>350 kHz) for CD and DVD
  • Special DVD track crossing support
  • Fast radial brake circuitry
  • EFM actuator damping circuitry
  • Sledge motor servo loop with enhanced Position Control Sledge (PCS) support
  • Sledge stepper motor support
  • Adaptive Repetitive Control (ARC)
  • Debug interface for servo.

Clock multiplier

  • On-chip clock multipliers allows the use of 8.4672 MHz crystal.
