MAX4397
Volume Control
The TV channel volume control ranges from -56dB to
+6dB in 2dB steps. The VCR volume control settings
are programmable for -6dB, 0dB, and +6dB. These
gain levels are referenced to the application inputs,
where some dividers are present. With the ZCD bit set,
the TV volume control switches only at zero-crossings,
thus minimizing click noise. The TV outputs can bypass
the volume control. Likewise, the monaural output sig-
nal can be processed by the TV volume control or it
can bypass the volume control.
Digital Section
Serial Interface
The MAX4397 uses a simple 2-wire serial interface
requiring only two standard microprocessor port I/O
lines. The fast-mode I
2
C-compatible serial interface
allows communication at data rates up to 400kbps or
400kHz. Figure 6 shows the timing diagram of the sig-
nals on the 2-wire interface.
The two bus lines (SDA and SCL) must be at logic-high
when the bus is not in use. The MAX4397 is a slave
device and must be controlled by a master device.
Pullup resistors from the bus lines to the supply are
required when push-pull circuitry is not driving the
lines.
The logic level on the SDA line can only change when
the SCL line is low. The start and stop conditions occur
when SDA toggles low/high while the SCL line is high
(see Figure 6). Data on SDA must be stable for the
duration of the setup time (t
SU,DAT
) before SCL goes
high. Data on SDA is sampled when SCL toggles high
with data on SDA stable for the duration of the hold time
(t
HD,DAT
). Note that data is transmitted in an 8-bit byte.
A total of nine clock cycles are required to transfer a
byte to the MAX4397. The device acknowledges the
successful receipt of the byte by pulling the SDA line
low during the 9th clock cycle.

C Compatibility
The MAX4397 is compatible with existing I
2
C systems.
SCL and SDA are high-impedance inputs. SDA has an
open drain that pulls the bus line to a logic-low during
the 9th clock pulse. Figure 7 shows a typical I
2
C inter-
face application. The communication protocol supports
the standard I
2
C 8-bit communications. The MAX4397
address is compatible with the 7-bit I
2
C addressing
protocol only; 10-bit format is not supported.
Digital Inputs and Interface Logic
The I
2
C-compatible, 2-wire interface has logic levels
defined as V
IL
= 0.8V and V
IH
= 2.0V. All of the inputs
include Schmitt-trigger buffers to accept low-transition
interfaces. The digital inputs are compatible with 3V
CMOS logic levels.
Programming
Connect DEV_ADDR to ground to set the MAX4397
write and read address as shown in Table 2.
Data Register Writing and Reading
Program the SCART video and audio switches by writ-
ing to registers 00h through 0Dh. Registers 00h through
0Eh can also be read, allowing read-back of data after
programming and facilitating system debugging. The
status register is read-only and can be read from
address 0Eh. See Tables 3–12 for register program-
ming information.
Applications Information
Hot-Plug of SCART Connectors
The MAX4397 features high-ESD protection on all
SCART inputs and outputs, and requires no external
transient-voltage suppressor (TVS) devices to protect
against floating chassis discharge. Some set-top boxes
have a floating chassis problem in which the chassis is
not connected to earth ground. As a result, the chassis
can charge up to 500V. When a SCART cable is con-
nected to the SCART connector, the charged chassis
can discharge through a signal pin. The equivalent cir-
cuit is a 2200pF capacitor charged to 311V connected
through less than 0.1 to a signal pin. The MAX4397 is
soldered on the PC board when it experiences such a
discharge. Therefore, the current spike flows through
the ESD protection diodes and is absorbed by the sup-
ply bypass capacitors, which have high capacitance
and low ESR.
To better protect the MAX4397 against excess voltages
during the cable discharge condition, place an addi-
tional 75 resistor in series with all inputs and outputs
to the SCART connector. For harsh environments where
±15kV protection is needed, the MAX4385E and
MAX4386E single and quad high-speed op amps fea-
ture the industry’s first integrated ±15kV ESD protection
on video inputs and outputs.

Power Supplies and Bypassing
The MAX4397 features single 5V and 12V supply opera-
tion and requires no negative supply. The +12V supply
V
12
is for the SCART switching function. For pin V
12
,
place all bypass capacitors as close as possible with a
10µF capacitor in parallel with a 0.1µF ceramic capacitor.
Connect all V
AUD
pins together to +5V and bypass with a
10µF electrolytic capacitor in parallel with a 0.47µF low-
ESR ceramic capacitor to audio ground. Bypass V
AUD
pins with a 0.1µF capacitor to audio ground. Bypass
AUD_BIAS to audio ground with a 10µF electrolytic in
parallel with a 0.1µF ceramic capacitor.
Bypass V
DIG
with a 0.1µF ceramic capacitor to digital
ground. Bypass each V
VID
to video ground with a 0.1µF
ceramic capacitor. Connect V
VID
in series with a 200nH
ferrite bead to the +5V supply.
Layout and Grounding
For optimal performance, use controlled-impedance
traces for video signal paths and place input termina-
tion resistors and output back-termination resistors
close to the MAX4397. Avoid routing video traces par-
allel to high-speed data lines.
The MAX4397 provides separate ground connections
for video, audio, and digital supplies. For best perfor-
mance, use separate ground planes for each of the
ground returns and connect all three ground planes
together at a single point. Refer to the MAX4397 evalu-
ation kit for a proven circuit board layout example.
