The MAX463–MAX470 series of two-channel,
triple/quad buffered video switches and video buffers
combines high-accuracy, unity-gain-stable amplifiers
with high-performance video switches. Fast switching
time and low differential gain and phase error make this
series of switches and buffers ideal for all video applications. The devices are all specified for ±5V supply
operation with inputs and outputs as high as ±2.5V
when driving 150Ω loads (75Ω back-terminated cable).
Input capacitance is typically only 5pF, and channel-tochannel crosstalk is better than 60dB, accomplished by
surrounding all inputs with AC ground pins. The onboard amplifiers feature a 200V/µs slew rate (300V/µs
for AV= 2V/V amplifiers), and a bandwidth of 100MHz
(90MHz for AV= 2V/V buffers). Channel selection is
controlled by a single TTL-compatible input pin or by a
microprocessor interface, and channel switch time is
only 20ns.
For design flexibility, devices are offered with bufferamplifier gains of 1V/V or 2V/V for 75Ω back-terminated
applications. Output amplifiers have a guaranteed output swing of ±2V into 75Ω.
Devices offered in this series are as follows:

Stresses beyond those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and functional
operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated in the operational sections of the specifications is not implied. Exposure to
absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
