IntroductionSTV6417
1 Introduction
The STV6417 is an I²C-controlled integrated circuit for switching, filtering and buffering
audio and video signals in any dual, full-SCART application. It can be used in products such
as SD and HD set-top boxes or DVD/BD players and recorders for European markets.
It can be connected to six video DAC outputs of an MPEG decoder, allowing simultaneous
switching and driving of either the composite and RGB signals, or the S-video signal only, to
the TV SCART output, as well as the composite or S-video signals to the VCR SCART
output. Further, the device provides the switching of the composite and RGB signals, or the
S-video signal only, from the VCR SCART to the TV SCART.
The STV6417 manages the slow blanking and fast blanking signalling through the I²C bus.
The complete set of features of the STV6417 makes it particularly adapted for all low- to
high-end European HD set-top boxes.
The STV6417 is one of the family of five, pin-compatible products (Figure 1) that complete
the new generation of audio and video switches and buffers from STMicroelectronics.
Together they cover, both technically and price-wise, the whole market spectrum from
mid-range SD retail (zapper set-top boxes or basic recorders) up to DVR HD operators
(set-top boxes or recorders with SD component output).
