I'm using the NTE879 (link to pdf) to make a RGB converter so I can play arcade boards on my television set. I've seen other schematics using similar ICs (AD724, AD722), but there's a couple of things that throw me off about this particular IC. The NTE879 has a "Ramp Generator Input" (pin 1). What kind of voltage ramp is it looking for?
Also, there are pins for "Decoupling" (7,11,12,19). Does the IC need a capacitor between each of these pins and ground?
