GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The SAA56xx family of microcontrollers are a derivative of the Philips industry-standard 80C51 microcontroller and are intended for use as the central control mechanism in a television receiver. They provide control functions for the television system, OSD and incorporate an integrated Data Capture and display function for either Teletext or Closed Caption.
