General Description
The MAX7450/MAX7451/MAX7452 complete front-end
video-signal conditioners are designed to improve the
quality of standard-definition video signals. The devices
restore the DC level of the video input, correct for
amplitude errors up to ±6dB, detect fault conditions,
and filter out-of-band noise. The MAX7450/MAX7451/
MAX7452 optimize the signal quality for further video
processing through a crosspoint switch or video
decoder (ADC). Each device integrates an input video
clamp, automatic gain control (AGC), loss-of-sync
(LOS) detector, and an out-of-band noise/lowpass filter.
These devices also incorporate a user-selectable
buffer gain (0 or +6dB) and an AGC-disable function.
The MAX7450 and MAX7451 operate from dual power
supplies of ±5V or ±3.3V respectively, and they restore
the video blanking level to GND. The MAX7452 operates
from a single +5V supply and features a user-adjustable
clamp level.
The devices are available in an 8-pin SO package with
an exposed pad and are specified for operation over
the extended (-40°C to +85°C) temperature range.
