The TSH345 is a triple single-supply video buffer
featuring an internal gain of 6 dB and selectable
filtering for HD and SD video outputs on 75 Ω
video lines. The TSH345 is ideal to drive YC,
CVBS, YUV, YPbPr or RGB signals from video
DAC outputs.
The main advantage of this circuit is its input DC
level shifter. It allows driving video signals on 75 Ω
video lines without damaging the synchronization
tip and without input or output capacitors when
using a single 5 V power supply. The DC level
shifter is internally fixed and optimized to keep the
output video signals between low and high output
rails in the best position for the greatest linearity.
The TSH345 is available in SO-14 and TSSOP-14
plastic packages for optimum space saving.

2.1 Power supply considerations: improving the power supply
noise rejection
Correct power supply bypassing is very important to optimize performance in low- and highfrequency ranges. Bypass capacitors should be placed as close as possible to the IC pin
(pin 4) to improve high-frequency bypassing. A capacitor (C

add a capacitor of 100 nF (C

better reject the noise from the supply and to prevent current peaks as much as possible.

The TSH345 is used to drive either high-definition video signals up to 30 MHz or progressive
and interlaced standard definition video signals on 75-Ω video lines. It can drive a large
panel of signals such as YC and CVBS, YUV, YPbPr and RGB, where the bottom of the
signal (the synchronization tip in the case of Y and CVBS signals) is close to zero volts. An
internal input DC value is added to the video signal in order to shift the bottom from GND.
The shift is not based on the average of the signal, but is an analog summation of a DC
component to the video signal. Therefore, no input capacitors are required, which provides a
real advantage in terms of cost and board space.
Under these conditions, it is possible to drive the signal in single supply without any
saturation of the driver against the lower rail.
Since half of the signal is lost through output impedance matching, in order to properly drive
the video line the shifted signal is multiplied by a gain of 2 or +6 dB.

3.1 Output capacitor
The output can be either DC-coupled or AC-coupled. The output can be directly connected
to the line via a 75-Ω resistor (see Figure 34), or an output capacitor can be used to remove
any DC components in the load. Assuming the load is 150 Ω, a coupling capacitor of 220 µF
can be used to provide a very low cut-off frequency close to 5 Hz (see Figure 35).

1. CS is 100 nF used to decrease the parasitic components of C in high frequencies. It is preferable to limit the
use of this output AC-coupling to the standard definition only.
2. The 75-Ω resistor must be as close as possible to the output of the driver to minimize the effect of parasitic
capacitance.
