General Description
The MAX9517/MAX9524 are low-power video amplifiers
with integrated reconstruction filters. Specially suited for
standard-definition video signals, such as composite and
luma, these devices are ideal for a wide range of appli-
cations such as cell phones and security/CCTV cameras.
Video signals should be DC-coupled into the MAX9517
input and AC-coupled into the MAX9524 input.
The MAX9517/MAX9524 have two single-pole, single-
throw (SPST) analog switches that can be used to route
stereo audio, video, or digital signals. The reconstruc-
tion filter typically has ±1dB passband flatness at 9MHz
and 52dB attenuation at 27MHz. The amplifiers have a
gain of 2V/V, and the outputs can be DC-coupled to a
load of 75Ω, which is equivalent to two video loads. The
outputs can be AC-coupled to a load of 150Ω, which is
equivalent to one video load.
The MAX9517/MAX9524 operate from a 2.7V to 3.6V
single supply and are specified over the -40°C to
+125°C automotive temperature range. The MAX9517/
MAX9524 are available in a small 12-pin TQFN (3mm x
3mm) package.

_______________________________________________________________________________________ 9
Detailed Description
The MAX9517/MAX9524 consist of a lowpass filter and
an output amplifier capable of driving a standard 150Ω
video load to ground. The MAX9517 has an input buffer
and the MAX9524 has an input sync-tip clamp. The
MAX9517/MAX9524 both have two SPST analog
switches that can be used to route audio, video, or digi-
tal signals. The output amplifiers provide a fixed gain of
2V/V.
The MAX9517/MAX9524 filter and amplify the video
DAC output. External video signals, in which the DC
bias is usually not known, can be AC-coupled to the
MAX9524.
Input with DC Buffer (MAX9517)
The input of the MAX9517 can be directly connected to
the video source if the signal is approximately between
ground and 1V. This specification is commonly found at
the output of most video DACs.
DC-coupling requires that the input signals are ground
referenced so that the sync tip of composite or luma
signals is within 50mV of ground.
Input with Sync-Tip Clamp (MAX9524)
When the bias of the incoming video signal is either
unknown or not between ground and 1V (such as an
external video source), use the MAX9524 to connect
the video source through a 0.1µF capacitor.
The VIDIN input of the MAX9524 can only handle sig-
nals with a sync pulse, such as composite video and
luma. An internal sync-tip clamp sets the internal DC
level of the video signal.
Video Filter
The filter passband (±1dB) is typically 9MHz to make
the device suitable for standard-definition video signals
from all sources (including broadcast video and DVD).
Broadcast video signals are channel limited: NTSC sig-
nals have 4.2MHz bandwidth, and PAL signals have
5MHz bandwidth. Video signals from a DVD player,
however, are not channel limited; therefore, the band-
width of DVD video signals can approach the Nyquist
limit of 6.75MHz (recommendation ITU-R BT.601-5
specifies 13.5MHz as the sampling rate for standard-
definition video). Therefore, the maximum bandwidth of
the signal is 6.75MHz. To ease the filtering require-
ments, most modern video systems oversample by two
times, clocking the video current DAC at 27MHz.
Outputs
The video output amplifiers can both source and sink
load current, allowing output loads to be DC- or AC-
coupled. The amplifier output stage needs around
300mV of headroom from either supply rail. The parts
have an internal level shift circuit that positions the sync
tip at approximately 300mV at the output.
If the supply voltage is greater than 3.135V (5% below
a 3.3V supply), each amplifier can drive two DC-cou-
pled video loads to ground. If the supply is less than
3.135V, each amplifier can drive only one DC-coupled
or AC-coupled video load.
Shutdown
The MAX9517/MAX9524 draw less than 1µA supply
current when SHDN is low. In shutdown, the amplifier
output becomes high impedance.
Applications Information
Reducing Power Consumption
in the Video DACs
The MAX9517/MAX9524 have high-impedance input
buffers that can work with source resistances as high
as 300Ω. To reduce power dissipation in the video
DACs, the DAC output resistor can be scaled up in
value. The reference resistor that sets the reference
current inside the video DACs must also be similarly
scaled up. For instance, if the output resistor is 37.5Ω,
the DAC must source 26.7mA when the output is 1V. If
the output resistor is increased to 300Ω, the DAC only
needs to source 3.33mA when the output is 1V.
There is parasitic capacitance from the DAC output to
ground. That capacitance in parallel with the DAC out-
put resistor forms a pole that can potentially roll off the
frequency response of the video signal. For example,
300Ωin parallel with 50pF creates a pole at 10.6MHz.
To minimize this capacitance, reduce the area of the
signal trace attached to the DAC output as much as
possible, and place the MAX9517/MAX9524 as close
as possible to the video DAC outputs.

AC-Coupling the Outputs
The outputs can be AC-coupled because the output
stage can source and sink current as shown in Figure 1.
Coupling capacitors should be 220µF or greater to keep
the highpass filter formed by the 150Ωequivalent resis-
tance of the video transmission line to a corner frequen-
cy of 4.8Hz or below. The frame rate of PAL systems is
25Hz, and the frame rate of NTSC systems is 30Hz. The
corner frequency should be well below the frame rate.
Changing Between Video Output and
Microphone Input on a Single Connector
A single pole on a mobile phone jack can be used for
transmitting a video signal to a television or receiving
the signal from the microphone of a headset. Figure 2
shows how the MAX9517 can transmit a video signal.
Figure 3 shows how the MAX9517 can receive and
pass on the signal from a microphone.
Switching Between Video
and Digital Signals
The dual SPST analog switches and the high-imped-
ance output of the video amplifier enable video trans-
mission, digital transmission, and digital reception all
on a single pole of a connector. Figures 4, 5, and 6
show the different configurations of the MAX9517.
Selecting Between Two Video Sources
The analog switches can multiplex between two video
sources. For example, a mobile phone might have an
application processor with an integrated video encoder
and a mobile graphics processor with an integrated
video encoder, each creating a composite video signal
that is between 0 and 1V. Figure 7 shows this application
in which the MAX9517 chooses between two internal
video sources. The two analog switches can be used as
a 2:1 multiplexer to select which video DAC output is
actually filtered, amplified, and then driven out to the
connector. Close switch 1 to select the video from the
application processor. Close switch 2 to select the video
from the mobile graphics processor.
Figure 8 shows the application in which the MAX9524
chooses between two external video sources with
unknown DC bias.
Y/C Mixer with Chroma Mute
If the video application processor has two current out-
put digital-to-analog converters (DACs) for luma (Y)
and chroma (C), respectively, then the signals can be
mixed together to create a composite video signal by
summing the currents into a single resistor, as shown in
Figure 9. The composite video signal should be AC-
coupled into the MAX9524 because the composite
video signal has a positive DC level shift. The sync-tip
clamp of the MAX9524 will re-establish the DC bias
level of the signal inside the chip.
The chroma current is connected to essentially a sin-
gle-pole, double-throw (SPDT) switch. In one position,
the switch routes the chroma current into the resistor. In
the other position, the switch routes the chroma current
into ground. For the Y/C mixer to work properly, the
chroma current must be routed through analog switch 1
into the resistor.
If the chroma signal needs to be muted, then the chroma
current is shunted to ground through analog switch 2.
Analog switch 1 stays open. See Figure 10.

Figure 11. MAX9524 is Used as an Anti-Alias Filter with Buffer (Switches Can Route Other Signals)
Anti-Alias Filter
The MAX9524 can also provide anti-alias filtering with
buffer before an analog-to-digital converter (ADC),
which would be present in an NTSC/PAL video
decoder, for example. Figure 11 shows an example
application circuit for MAX9524. An external composite
video signal is applied to IN, which is terminated with
75Ωto ground. The signal is AC-coupled to VIDIN
because the DC level of an external video signal is usu-
ally not well specified.
Power-Supply Bypassing and Ground
The MAX9517/MAX9524 operate from a single-supply
voltage down to 2.7V, allowing for low-power operation.
Bypass VDD to GND with a 0.1µF capacitor. Place all
external components as close as possible to the device.
