The MAX9508 video filter amplifier with SmartSleep™
and bidirectional video support is ideal for set-top
boxes (STBs), portable DVD players, and portable
media players (PMPs). The inputs can be directly connected to the digital-to-analog converter (DAC) outputs.
The reconstruction filter removes high-frequency signals above 6.75MHz. The amplifiers have 6dB of gain,
and the outputs can be DC-coupled to a load of 75Ω,
which is equivalent to two video loads, or it can be
AC-coupled to a load of 150Ω.
The SmartSleep circuitry intelligently reduces power
consumption based on the presence of the input signal
and the output loads. When the MAX9508 does not
detect the presence of sync on the input video signal,
the supply current is reduced to less than 7µA. The
device only enables a video amplifier when there is an
active video input signal and an attached load. The
video amplifier remains on while a load is connected. If
the load is disconnected, the video amplifier is turned off.
The MAX9508 contains three reconstruction filters, four
video amplifiers, and a pulldown switch at one of the
two CVBS outputs. The MAX9508 has the ability to control the bidirectional video signals at the CVBS video
connections without the need for separate switches or
relays. This feature is particularly useful for portable
DVD players, which often use the same connector to
drive a composite video output and to accept an external video signal to display on the LCD panel.
The MAX9508 operates from a 2.7V to 3.6V single supply
and is offered in a small 16-pin TQFN (3mm x 3mm)
package. The device is specified over the -40°C to
+125°C automotive temperature range.

Detailed Description
In the typical application circuit for a portable DVD
player (Figure 1), the current DACs on a DVD decoder
chip generate video signals. When the internal signal
sources are selected, the MAX9508 filters those signals
and then drives the video connectors through a 75Ω
back termination resistor. When external video sources
are selected, the MAX9508 selects the external composite video signal (EXTCVBSIN), filters, and amplifies
it. The output stages of the amplifiers connected to
COUT, YOUT, and CVBSOUT1 become high impedance. The n-channel switch at CVBSOUT1 turns on,
thereby converting the back termination resistor into an
input termination resistor.
SmartSleep Feature
The SmartSleep feature is activated when the SMARTSLEEP
input is connected to logic high. The SmartSleep feature
provides intelligent power management by selectively
disabling the filters and output amplifiers based on
the presence of video signals or loads attached to the
MAX9508
Video Filter Amplifier with SmartSleep and
Bidirectional Video Support
outputs. If the SmartSleep feature is not activated and
the part is not in shutdown, the filters and output amplifiers completely turn on, regardless of whether there is
a video signal at the CVBSIN input and whether there
are loads connected at the outputs.
SmartSleep only works with DC-coupled loads.
Standby Mode
In standby mode, the filters and output amplifiers are
off and only the active video detect circuit is active.
Quiescent current consumption is approximately 7µA
(Figure 2). The active video-detect circuit checks if
sync is present on the CVBSIN signal. If no sync is
detected the device remains in standby mode.

Active-Detect Mode
The active video-detect circuit slices the CVBSIN signal
at 4.7% of the power supply (155mV for a 3.3V supply).
If the transitions occur at a rate of 14kHz or higher, a
video signal is present. When the MAX9508 detects a
video signal with sync at the CVBSIN input, the control
logic enters the active-detect mode and enables the
load sense circuitry (Figure 3). The supply current is
typically 17µA.
If an output load is not connected to any amplifier, the
MAX9508 remains in active-detect mode. Eight times per
second, each load-sense circuit checks for a load by
connecting an internal 15kΩ pullup resistor to the output
for 1ms. If the output is pulled up, then no load is present. If the output stays low, a load is connected.
Video Filter Amplifier with SmartSleep and
Bidirectional Video Support
If a load is connected to an output, the corresponding
filter and amplifier turn on and remain on until the output load is disconnected. In full-operation mode,
SmartSleep intelligently reduces the supply current
based on the input signal presence and output loading.
Figures 4, 5, and 6 show which portions of the
MAX9508 turn on and which remain off with different
load configurations.
When an amplifier is on, it continually checks if the load
has been disconnected by detecting if the amplifier
output is sourcing current during a horizontal line time.
If no sourcing current is detected within one horizontal
line time (approximately 64µs), the load has been disconnected and the amplifier returns to active-detect
mode. If, at any time, the input video signal is removed,
the MAX9508 returns to standby mode.
If the SmartSleep feature is not activated and the part is
not in shutdown, the filters and amplifiers completely
turn on, regardless of whether there is a video signal at
the CVBSIN input and whether there are loads connected at the outputs.
Set the INT/EXT control input low for internal mode. The
MAX9508 processes video signals from an internal
source such as a DVD chip (Figure 7). The 2:1 multiplexer selects the video signal on CVBSIN. The
EXTCVBSIN video signal is ignored.

External Mode
Set the INT/EXT control input high for external mode.
The 2:1 multiplexer selects the video signal on
EXTCVBSIN (Figure 8). The YIN, CIN, and CVBSIN sig-
nals are ignored. The block drawing of the MAX9508 in
Figure 8 shows which circuits are off while in external
mode. SmartSleep does not function in external mode,
and the SMARTSLEEP input is ignored.
The MAX9508 video inputs YIN, CIN, and CVBSIN
should be directly connected to the output of the video
current DAC. DC-coupling ensures that the input signals are ground referenced such that the sync tip of
composite or luma signals is within 50mV of ground
and the blank level of the chroma signal is between
0.5V and 0.65V. Since the input buffer is identical for
YIN, CIN, and CVBSIN, any standard-definition video
signal can be applied to those inputs as long as the
signal is between ground and 1.05V when V
DD
= 2.7V.
For example, three composite video signals could be
applied to YIN, CIN, and CVBSIN. The RGB set and the
YPbPr set can also be inputs to YIN, CIN, and CVBSIN
(Figure 9).
The EXTCVBSIN input can only handle signals with a
sync pulse, such as composite, video, or luma.
Because the DC level of an external video input signal
is unknown, the external video signal is AC-coupled
through a 0.1µF capacitor, and a sync tip clamp sets
the internal DC level of the MAX9508. A 2:1 multiplexer
under the control of the INT/EXT input selects either the
signal at CVBSIN or EXTCVBSIN.
Video Filter Amplifier with SmartSleep and
Bidirectional Video Support
The MAX9508 filter passband is 6.75MHz, which makes
the device suitable for the higher bandwidth video signals from a DVD chip. Broadcast video signals actually
require less bandwidth because of channel limitations:
NTSC signals have a 4.2MHz bandwidth, and PAL signals have a 5MHz bandwidth. Video signals from a DVD
player are not channel limited; therefore, the bandwidth
of DVD video signals can push right against the Nyquist
limit of 6.75MHz. (Recommendation ITU-R BT.601-5
specifies 13.5MHz as the sampling rate for standarddefinition video). Therefore, the maximum bandwidth of
the signal is 6.75MHz. To ease the filtering requirements, 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 ACcoupled. The amplifier output stage needs about
300mV of headroom from either supply rail. The
MAX9508 has an internal level-shift circuit that positions
the sync tip at approximately 300mV at the output. The
blank level of the chroma output is positioned at
approximately 1.3V if the blank level of the chroma
input signal is 0.5V. The blank level of the chroma output is positioned at approximately 1.5V if the blank level
of the chroma input signal is 0.6V.
If the supply voltage is greater than 3.135V (5% below
a 3.3V supply), each amplifier can drive two DC-coupled 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
When SHDN is low, the MAX9508 draws typically less
than 10nA supply current. All the amplifier outputs
become high impedance. The effective output resistance at the video outputs is 28kΩ, due to the internal
feedback resistors to ground.
Applications Information
Reducing Power Consumption
in the Video DACs
YIN, CIN, and CVBSIN have high-impedance input
buffers and 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 output resistor forms a pole that can potentially roll off the
frequency response of the video signal. For example,
300Ω in 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 MAX9508 as close to the video
DAC outputs as possible.
AC-Coupling the Outputs
The outputs can be AC-coupled since the output stage
can source and sink current as shown in Figure 10.
Coupling capacitors should be 220µF or greater to
keep the highpass filter formed by the 150Ω equivalent
resistance of the video transmission line to a corner frequency 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.
The MAX9508 operates from a single-supply voltage
down to 2.7V, allowing for low-power operation. Bypass
VDDto GND with a 0.1µF capacitor. Place all external
components as close to the device as possible.
