I am in the middle of a project using that particular chip right now.
The project syncs video (writes a count on each video frame) with
an EEG data recorder on a PC keeping digital track of the same
count. The result being each recorded video frame has a unique
number that can be matched with 24 channels of EEG wave forms.
Used for anesthetic evaluation in operations.
Youre right.. the data sheet is a bit theoretical, trying to cover all
possible uses in one application schematic, a good real world
project is in Electronics Australia OCT 99
(www.electronicsaustralia.com.au) called "Compact Video Title
Generator"...... AND it uses a PIC 16F84!

I am using a PIC16F877 to run the count, talk to the video chip and
drive an LCD display etc.
