Low-Power Audio/Video Switch for
Dual SCART Connectors
Features
The MAX9598 dual SCART matrix routes audio and video
signals between a set-top box decoder chip and two
external SCART connectors under I2C control. Operating
from a 3.3V supply and a 12V supply, the MAX9598 consumes 70mW during quiescent operation and 471mW
during average operation when driving typical signals into
typical loads. Video input detection, video load detection,
and a 1.7mW low-power mode facilitate the design of lowpower set-top boxes.
♦ 70mW Quiescent Power Consumption
The MAX9598 audio section contains a buffered crosspoint to route audio inputs to audio outputs. The
DirectDrive® output amplifiers create a 2VRMS full-scale
audio signal biased around ground, eliminating the
need for bulky output capacitors and reducing clickand-pop noise. The zero-cross detection circuitry also
further reduces clicks and pops by enabling audio
sources to switch only during a zero-crossing.
The MAX9598 video section contains a buffered crosspoint to route video inputs to video outputs. The standarddefinition video signals from the set-top box decoder chip
are lowpass filtered to remove out-of-bandwidth artifacts.
The MAX9598 also supports slow-switching and fast-switching signals. An interrupt signal from the MAX9598 informs the
microcontroller (µC) when the system status has changed.
The MAX9598 is available in a compact 40-pin thin QFN
package and is specified over the 0°C to +70°C commercial temperature range.

All devices are 100% production tested at TA = +25°C. Specifications over temperature limits are guaranteed by design.
Normal operation mode is the POR state.
The settling time is measured from the 50% of the input swing to the 0.1% of the final value of the output.
A master device must provide a hold time of at least 300ns for the SDA signal (referred to VIL of the SCL signal) in order to
bridge the undefined region of SCL’s falling edge.

Detailed Description
The MAX9598 represents Maxim’s third generation of
SCART1 audio/video (A/V) switches. Under I2C control,
these devices route audio, video, and control information between the set-top box decoder chip and two
SCART connectors. The audio signals are left audio
and right audio. The video signals are composite video
with blanking and sync (CVBS) and component video
(red, green, blue). S-video (Y/C) can be transported
across the SCART interface if CVBS is reassigned to
luma (Y) and red is reassigned to chroma (C). Support
for S-video is optional. The slow-switch signal and the
fast-switch signal carry control information. The slowswitch signal is a 12V, trilevel signal that indicates
whether the picture aspect ratio is 4:3 or 16:9 or causes the television to use an internal A/V source such as
an antenna. The fast-switch signal indicates whether
the television should display CVBS or RGB signals.
CVBS, left audio, and right audio are full duplex. All the
other signals are half duplex. Therefore, one device on
the link must be designated as the transmitter and the
other device must be designated as the receiver.
The low-power consumption and the advanced monitoring functions of the MAX9598 enable the creation of
lower power set-top boxes, televisions, and DVD players. Unlike competing SCART ICs, the audio and video
circuits of the MAX9598 operate entirely from 3.3V rather
than from 5V and 12V. Only the slow-switch circuit of the
MAX9598 requires a 12V supply. The MAX9598 also has
circuits that detect activity on the CVBS inputs, loads on
the CVBS outputs, and the level of the slow-switch signals. The INT signal informs the µC if there are any
changes so that the µC can intelligently decide whether
to power up or power down the equipment.
In addition, the MAX9598 has DirectDrive audio circuitry to eliminate click-and-pop noise. With DirectDrive,
the DC bias of the audio line outputs is always at
ground, no matter whether the MAX9598 is being powered up or powered down. Conventional audio line output drivers that operate from a single supply require
series AC-coupling capacitors. During power-up, the
DC bias on the AC-coupling capacitor moves from
ground to a positive voltage, and during power-down,
the opposite occurs. The changing DC bias usually
causes an audible transient.
1SCART (from Syndicat des Constructeurs d’Appareils Radiorécepteurs et Téléviseurs) is a French-originated standard and associated 21-pin connector for connecting audio-visual equipment together. The official standard for SCART is CENELEC document number EN 50049-1. From Wikipedia.

Audio Section
The integrated charge pump inverts the +3.3V supply
to create a -3.3V supply. The audio circuit operates
from bipolar supplies so the audio signal is always
biased to ground.
The audio circuit is essentially a stereo, 2x2, nonblocking, audio crosspoint with output drivers. The encoder
(stereo audio DAC) and the VCR are the two input
sources, and the two outputs go to the TV SCART connector and the VCR SCART connector. See Figure 1.

Audio Outputs
The MAX9598 audio output amplifiers feature Maxim’s
patented DirectDrive architecture, thereby eliminating
the need for output-coupling capacitors required by
conventional single-supply audio line drivers. An internal charge pump inverts the positive supply (VAUD),
creating a negative supply (CPVSS). The audio output
amplifiers operate from these bipolar supplies with their
outputs biased about audio ground (Figure 2). The
benefit of this audio ground bias is that the amplifier
outputs do not have a DC component. The DC-blocking
capacitors required with conventional audio line drivers
are unnecessary, conserving board space, reducing
system cost, and improving frequency response.
Conventional single-supply audio line drivers have their
outputs biased about a nominal DC voltage (typically
half the supply) for maximum dynamic range. Large
coupling capacitors are needed to block this DC bias.
Clicks and pops are created when the coupling capacitors are charged during power-up and discharged during power-down.
The MAX9598 features a low-noise charge pump that
requires only two small ceramic capacitors. The
580kHz switching frequency is well beyond the audio
range and does not interfere with audio signals. The
switch drivers feature a controlled switching speed that
minimizes noise on the video outputs generated by
turn-on and turn-off transients.
MAX9598
Clickless Switching
The TV audio channel incorporates a zero-crossing
detect (ZCD) circuit that minimizes click noise due to
abrupt signal level changes that occur when switching
between audio signals at an arbitrary moment.
To implement the zero-crossing function when switching audio signals, set the ZCD bit high (Audio Control
Register 00h, bit 6). Then set the mute bit high (Audio
Control Register, 00h, bit 0). Next, wait for a sufficient
period of time for the audio signal to cross zero. This
period is a function of the audio signal path’s low-frequency 3dB corner (fL3dB). Thus, if fL3dB = 20Hz, the
time period to wait for a zero-crossing detect is 1/20Hz
or 50ms.
After the wait period, select a new audio source for the
TV audio channel by writing to bits 1 and 0 of the TV
Audio Control Register (01h). Finally, clear mute (Audio
Control Register, 00h, bit 0) but leave ZCD (Audio
Control Register, 00h, bit 6) high. The MAX9598 switches the signal out of mute at the next zero crossing. See
Tables 10 and 11.

The SCART standard specifies 2VRMS as the full-scale
for audio signals. As the audio circuits process
0.5V RMS full-scale audio signals internal to the
MAX9598, the gain-of-4 output amplifiers restore the
audio signals to a full scale of 2VRMS.
To select which audio input source is routed to the TV
SCART connector, write to bits 1 and 0 of the TV Audio
Control Register (01h). To select which audio input
source is routed to the VCR SCART connector, write to
bits 3 and 2 of the TV Audio Control Register (01h). The
power-on default is for the TV and VCR audio outputs to
be muted (the inputs of the output amplifiers are connected to audio ground). See Tables 8 and 11.
Video Section
The video circuit routes different video formats between
the set-top box decoder, the TV SCART connector, and
the VCR SCART connector. It also routes slow-switch
and fast-switch control information. See Figure 3.

Low-Power Audio/Video Switch for
Dual SCART Connectors
The MAX9598 restores the DC level of incoming, ACcoupled video signals with either transparent sync-tip
clamps or bias circuits. When using an AC-coupled
input, the transparent sync-tip clamp automatically
clamps the input signal minimum to ground, preventing
it from going lower. A small current of 1µA pulls down
on the input to prevent an AC-coupled signal from drifting outside the input range of the part. Use sync-tip
clamps with CVBS, RGB, and luma signals.
The transparent sync-tip clamp is “transparent” when
the incoming video signal is DC-coupled and at or
above ground. Under such conditions, the clamp never
activates. Therefore, the outputs of video DACs that
typically generate signals between 0 and 1V can be
directly connected to the MAX9598 inputs.
The bias circuit accepts AC-coupled chroma, which is a
subcarrier with the color information modulated onto it.
The bias voltage of the bias circuits is 600mV.
ENC_R/C_IN and VCR_R/C_IN can receive either a red
video signal or a chroma video signal. Set the input configuration by writing to bits 7 and 3 of the VCR Video
Input Control Register (08h). See Tables 8 and 14.
The MAX9598 also has video input detection. When
activated, activity detect circuits check if sync is present on incoming CVBS signals. If so, then there is a
valid video signal. Read bits 0, 2, 4, and 5 of the Video
Activity Status Register (0Fh) to determine the status of
the CVBS inputs. See Table 19.
Video Reconstruction Filter
The video DAC outputs of the set-top box decoder chip
need to be lowpass-filtered to reject the out-of-band
noise. The MAX9598 integrates 6th-order, Butterworth
filters. The filter passband (±1dB) is typically 10MHz,
and the attenuation at 27MHz is 52dB. The filters are
suited for standard-definition video.
Video Outputs
The video output amplifiers can both source and sink
load current, allowing output loads to be DC- or AC-coupled. The amplifier output stage needs around 300mV of
headroom from either supply rail. For video signals with
a sync pulse, the sync tip will typically be at 300mV, as
shown in Figure 4. For a chroma signal, the blank level
will typically be at 1.5V, as shown in Figure 5.

MAX9598
Video Inputs
Whether the incoming video signal is AC-coupled or
DC-coupled into the MAX9598 depends upon the origin, format, and voltage range of the video signal.
Table 1 below shows the recommended connections.
Always AC-couple an external video signal through a
0.1µF capacitor because its voltage is not well defined
(see the Typical Application Circuit). For example, the
video transmitter circuit might have a different ground
than the video receiver, thereby level shifting the DC
bias. The 60Hz power line “hum” might cause the video
signal to slowly change DC bias.
Internal video signals that are between 0 and 1V can
be DC-coupled. Most video DACs generate video signals between 0 and 1V because the video DAC
sources current into a ground-referenced resistor. For
the minority of video DACs that generate video signals
between 2.3V and 3.3V because the video DAC sinks
current from a VVID-referenced resistor, AC-couple the
video signal to the MAX9598.

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.
Slow Switching
The MAX9598 supports the IEC 933-1, Amendment 1,
trilevel slow switching that selects the aspect ratio for the
display (TV). Under I2C control, the MAX9598 sets the
slow-switching output voltage level. Table 2 shows the
valid input levels of the slow-switching signal and the
corresponding operating modes of the display device.
The SCART standard allows for video signals to have a
superimposed DC component within 0 to 2V. Therefore,
most video signals are DC-coupled at the output. In the
unlikely event that the video signal needs to be ACcoupled, the coupling capacitors should be 220µF or
greater in order to keep the highpass filter formed by
the 37.5Ω equivalent resistance of the video transmission line to a corner frequency of 4.8Hz or below in
order to keep it well below the 25Hz frame rate of the
PAL standard.
The CVBS outputs have load sense circuits. If enabled,
each load sense circuit checks for a load eight times
per second 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, then a
load is connected. Read bits 1 and 3 to determine load
status. See Table 19.
The selection of video sources that are sent to the TV
SCART connector are controlled by bits 0 to 4 of the TV
Video Input Control Register (06h) while the selection of
video sources that are sent to the VCR SCART connector are controlled by bits 0 to 2 of the VCR Video Input
Control Register (08h). See Tables 8, 12, and 14. The
video outputs can be enabled or disabled by bits 2 to 7
of the Output Enable Register (0Dh). See Table 16.
16
Two bidirectional ports are available for slow-switching
signals for the TV and VCR. The slow-switching input
status is continuously read and stored in the Status
Register (0Eh). The slow-switching outputs can be set
to a logic level or high impedance by writing to the TV
Video Output Control Register (07h) and the VCR Video
Output Control Register (09h). When enabled, INT
becomes active low if the voltage level changes on
TV_SS or VCR_SS. See Tables 8, 13, 15 and 18.

I2C Serial Interface
The MAX9598 features an I2C/SMBus™-compatible, 2wire serial interface consisting of a serial data line (SDA)
and a serial clock line (SCL). SDA and SCL facilitate
communication between the MAX9598 and the master
at clock rates up to 400kHz. Figure 6 shows the 2-wire
interface timing diagram. The master generates SCL
and initiates data transfer on the bus. A master device
writes data to the MAX9598 by transmitting a START (S)
condition, the proper slave address with the R/W bit set
to 0, followed by the register address and then the data
word. Each transmit sequence is framed by a START (S)
and a STOP (P) condition. Each word transmitted to the
MAX9598 is 8 bits long and is followed by an acknowl-
edge clock pulse. A master reads from the MAX9598 by
transmitting the slave address with the R/W bit set to 0,
the register address of the register to be read, a
REPEATED START (Sr) condition, the slave address with
the R/W bit set to 1, followed by a series of SCL pulses.
The MAX9598 transmits data on SDA in sync with the
master-generated SCL pulses. The master acknowledges receipt of each byte of data. Each read
sequence is framed by a START (S) or REPEATED
START (Sr) condition, an acknowledge or a not acknowledge, and a STOP (P) condition. SDA operates as both
an input and an open-drain output. A pullup resistor,
typically greater than 500Ω, is required on the SDA bus.
SCL operates as only an input. A pullup resistor, typically greater than 500Ω, is required on SCL if there are
multiple masters on the bus, or if the master in a singlemaster system has an open-drain SCL output. Series
resistors in line with SDA and SCL are optional. Series
resistors protect the digital inputs of the MAX9598 from
high-voltage spikes on the bus lines, and minimize
crosstalk and undershoot of the bus signals.
Bit Transfer
One data bit is transferred during each SCL cycle. The
data on SDA must remain stable during the high period
of the SCL pulse. Changes in SDA while SCL is high
are control signals (see the START and STOP
Conditions section). SDA and SCL idle high when the
I2C bus is not busy.

Fast Switching
The fast-switching signal was originally used to switch
between CVBS and RGB signals on a pixel-by-pixel
basis so that on-screen display (OSD) information
could be inserted. Since modern set-top box decoder
chips have integrated OSD circuitry, there is no need to
create OSD information using the older technique.
Now, the fast-switching signal is just used to switch
between CVBS and RGB signal sources.
Set the source of the fast-switching signal by writing to
bits 4 and 3 of the TV Video Output Control Register
(07h). The fast switching signal to the TV SCART connector can be enabled or disabled by bit 1 of the Output
Enable Register (0Dh). See Tables 8, 13, and 16.
MAX9598
Low-Power Audio/Video Switch for
Dual SCART Connectors
START and STOP Conditions
SDA and SCL idle high when the bus is not in use. A
master initiates communication by issuing a START condition. A START condition is a high-to-low transition on
SDA with SCL high. A STOP condition is a low-to-high
transition on SDA while SCL is high (Figure 7). A START
condition from the master signals the beginning of a
transmission to the MAX9598. The master terminates
transmission, and frees the bus, by issuing a STOP condition. The bus remains active if a REPEATED START
condition is generated instead of a STOP condition.
write mode. The slave address is always the first byte
of information sent to the MAX9598 after a START or a
REPEATED START condition. The MAX9598 slave
address is configurable with DEV_ADDR. Table 3
shows the possible slave addresses for the MAX9598.
Acknowledge
The acknowledge bit (ACK) is a clocked 9th bit that the
MAX9598 uses to handshake receipt of each byte of
data when in write mode (see Figure 8). The MAX9598
pulls down SDA during the entire master-generated 9th
clock pulse if the previous byte is successfully received.
Monitoring ACK allows for detection of unsuccessful data
transfers. An unsuccessful data transfer occurs if a
receiving device is busy or if a system fault has
occurred. In the event of an unsuccessful data transfer,
the bus master may retry communication. The master
pulls down SDA during the 9th clock cycle to acknowledge receipt of data when the MAX9598 is in read mode.
An acknowledge is sent by the master after each read
byte to allow data transfer to continue. A not acknowledge is sent when the master reads the final byte of data
from the MAX9598, followed by a STOP condition.
Early STOP Conditions
The MAX9598 recognizes a STOP condition at any
point during data transmission except if the STOP condition occurs in the same high pulse as a START condition. For proper operation, do not send a STOP
condition during the same SCL high pulse as the
START condition.
Slave Address
The slave address is defined as the 7 MSBs (most significant bits) followed by the R/W (read/write) bit. Set
the R/W bit to 1 to configure the MAX9598 to read
mode. Set the R/W bit to 0 to configure the MAX9598 to

Read Data Format
The master presets the address pointer by first sending
the MAX9598’s slave address with the R/W bit set to 0
followed by the register address after a START condition.
The MAX9598 acknowledges receipt of its slave address
and the register address by pulling SDA low during the
ninth SCL clock pulse. A REPEATED START condition is
then sent followed by the slave address with the R/W bit
set to 1. The MAX9598 transmits the contents of the
specified register. Transmitted data is valid on the rising
edge of the master-generated serial clock (SCL). The
address pointer autoincrements after each read data
byte. This autoincrement feature allows all registers to be
read sequentially within one continuous frame. A STOP
condition can be issued after any number of read data
bytes. If a STOP condition is issued followed by another
read operation, the first data byte to be read will be from
the register address location set by the previous transaction and not 00h and subsequent reads will autoincrement the address pointer until the next STOP condition.
Attempting to read from register addresses higher than
01h results in repeated reads from a dummy register
containing FFh data. The master acknowledges receipt
of each read byte during the acknowledge clock pulse.
The master must acknowledge all correctly received
bytes except the last byte. The final byte must be followed by a not acknowledge from the master and then a
STOP condition. Figures 11 and 12 illustrate the frame
format for reading data from the MAX9598.

Write Data Format
A write to the MAX9598 consists of transmitting a
START condition, the slave address with the R/W bit set
to 0, one data byte to configure the internal register
address pointer, 1 or more data bytes, and a STOP
condition. Figure 9 illustrates the proper frame format
for writing 1 byte of data to the MAX9598. Figure 10
illustrates the frame format for writing n bytes of data to
the MAX9598.
The slave address with the R/W bit set to 0 indicates
that the master intends to write data to the MAX9598.
The MAX9598 acknowledges receipt of the address
byte during the master-generated ninth SCL pulse.
The second byte transmitted from the master configures the MAX9598’s internal register address pointer.
The pointer tells the MAX9598 where to write the next
byte of data. An acknowledge pulse is sent by the
MAX9598 upon receipt of the address pointer data.
The third byte sent to the MAX9598 contains the data
that will be written to the chosen register. An acknowledge pulse from the MAX9598 signals receipt of the
data byte. The address pointer autoincrements to the
next register address after each received data byte.
This autoincrement feature allows a master to write to
sequential register address locations within one continuous frame. The master signals the end of transmission
by issuing a STOP condition.

Interrupt Output
When interrupt is enabled in modes 1 and 2 (see the
Operating Modes section), INT, which is an open-drain
output, pulls low under the following conditions: slowswitch signals change value, CVBS input signals are
detected or disappear, and CVBS output loads are
added or removed.
When interrupt is enabled in mode 3, INT pulls low only
when the slow-switch signal changes value.
Enable INT by writing a 1 into bit 4 of register 01h. See
Table 11.
The interrupt can be cleared by reading register 0Eh
and 0Fh.
Applications Information
Audio Inputs
The maximum full-scale audio signal that can be
applied to the audio inputs is 0.5V RMS biased at
ground. The recommended application circuit to attenuate and bias an incoming audio signal is shown in
Figure 13.
The audio path has a gain of 4V/V so that the full scale
of the audio output signal is 2VRMS. If less than 2VRMS
full scale is desired at the audio outputs, then the full
scale of the audio input signal should be proportionately decreased below 0.5VRMS.

Note 5: TV slow-switch output (bits 1 and 0) should be the same as VCR slow-switch input.
Note 6: User has to set bits 7 and 3 appropriately depending upon whether signal is red or chroma.
Shutdown
All circuitry is shut down in the MAX9598 except for the
I2C interface, which is designed with static CMOS logic.
Except for register 10h, which sets the operating mode,
the values in all the other I2C registers are preserved
while entering, during, and leaving shutdown mode.
Low-Power Mode
Put the MAX9598 into low-power mode during standby.
Everything is shut down except for the slow-switching
circuits, CVBS input detection, CVBS load detection,
and I2C interface. If interrupt is enabled, then INT will go
active low whenever the slow-switch signal changes; a
CVBS signal appears or disappears; or a CVBS load
appears or disappears. The µC in the set-top box can
then decide whether to change the MAX9598 to fullpower mode and loop VCR signals to the TV.
Before entering low-power mode, the slow-switch signals should be set to high impedance.
Except for registers 0Eh, 0Fh, and 10h, the value in all of
the other I2C registers are preserved while entering, during, and leaving low-power mode. The values in registers
0Eh and 0Fh might change in low-power mode because
they provide status on the slow switch signals, CVBS
input, and CVBS outputs. The value in register 10h
changes while entering or leaving low-power mode
because bits 6 and 7 set the operating mode.
Full-Power Mode with Video Input Detection
and Video Load Detection
In this mode, the MAX9598 is fully on. If interrupt is
enabled, then INT will go active low whenever the slowswitch signal changes; a CVBS signal appears or disappears; or a CVBS load appears or disappears. The
µC can decide whether to change the routing configuration or operating mode of the MAX9598.
Full-Power Mode Without Video Input Detection
and Video Load Detection
This mode is similar to the above mode except that
video input detection and video load detection are not
active. If interrupt is enabled, then INT will go active low
only when the slow-switch signal changes.

Low-Power Audio/Video Switch for
Dual SCART Connectors
Average power consumption is defined when the
MAX9598 drives typical signals into typical loads. Table 6
shows the average power consumption in full-power
mode and Table 7 shows the input and output conditions.
S-Video
The MAX9598 supports S-video from the set-top box to
the TV, set-top box to the VCR, and VCR to the set-top
box. S-video was not included in the original SCART
specifications but was added afterwards. As a consequence, the luma (Y) signal of S-video shares the same
SCART pin as the CVBS signal. Likewise, the chroma
(C) signal shares the same SCART pin as the red sig-

ENC_R/C_IN
ENC_C_IN
nal. The pins that can carry both CVBS and luma have
Y/CVBS in their names, and the pins that can carry red
and chroma have R/C in their names.
Now, the Y/CVBS signals are full duplex while the R/C
signals are half duplex. Therefore, S-video is limited to
being half duplex. The MAX9598 has to transmit a chroma signal and receive a chroma signal on the same
SCART pin, but not at the same time. The 75Ω resistor
connected to VCR_R/C_OUT must act as a back termination resistor when the MAX9598 is transmitting chroma signal and as an input termination resistor when it is
receiving a chroma signal. Figure 14 shows how the
MAX9598 transmits a chroma signal to the VCR SCART
connector while Figure 15 shows how the MAX9598
receives a chroma from the VCR SCART connector.
Write a 0 into bit 2 of register 09h to open the pulldown
switch at VCR_R/C_OUT. To close the pulldown switch,
write a 0 into bit 6 of register 0Dh to turn off the output
amplifier, and then write a 1 into bit 2, register 09h. See
Tables 15 and 16.

Power Consumption
The quiescent power consumption and average power
consumption of the MAX9598 are very low because of
3.3V operation and low-power circuit design. Quiescent
power consumption is defined when the MAX9598 is
operating without loads and without any audio or video
signals. Table 5 shows the quiescent power consumption in all four operating modes.

Figure 16. Application Circuit to Connect CVBS and Mono Audio from TV SCART to RF Modulator
Interfacing to an RF Modulator
If the set-top box modulates CVBS and mono audio onto
an RF carrier (for example, channel 3), then a simple
application circuit can provide the needed signals (see
Figure 16). A 10kΩ resistor summer circuit between
TV_OUTR and TV_OUTL creates the mono audio signal.
The resistor-divider to ground on TV_Y/CVBS_OUT creates a video signal with normal amplitude. The unique
feature of the MAX9598 that facilitates this application
circuit is that the audio and video output amplifiers of
24
the MAX9598 can drive multiple loads if VAUD and VVID
are both greater than 3.135V.
Floating-Chassis Discharge
Protection and ESD
Some set-top boxes have a floating chassis problem in
which the chassis is not connected to earth ground. As a
result, the chassis can charge up to 500V. When a
SCART cable is connected to the SCART connector, the
charged chassis can discharge through a signal pin.
The equivalent circuit is a 2200pF capacitor charged to

MAX9598
Low-Power Audio/Video Switch for
Dual SCART Connectors
311V connected through less than 0.1Ω to a signal pin.
The MAX9598 is soldered on the PCB when it experiences such a discharge. Therefore, the current spike
flows through both external and internal ESD protection
devices and is absorbed by the supply bypass capacitors, which have high capacitance and low ESR.
To better protect the MAX9598 against excess voltages
during the cable discharge condition or ESD events, add
series resistors to all inputs and outputs to the SCART
connector if series resistors are not already present in
the application circuit. Also add external ESD protection
diodes (for example, BAV99) on all inputs and outputs to
the SCART connector.
Power-Supply Bypassing
The MAX9598 features single 3.3V and 12V supply
operation and requires no negative supply. The 12V
supply, V12 is for the SCART switching function. For
V12, place a 0.1µF bypass capacitor as close as possible. Connect all VAUD pins together to 3.3V and bypass
with a 10µF electrolytic capacitor in parallel with a 0.1µF
ceramic capacitor to audio ground. Bypass each VVID
to video ground with a 0.1µF ceramic capacitor.
Using a Digital Supply
The MAX9598 was designed to operate from noisy digital
supplies. The high PSRR (49dB at 100kHz) allows the
MAX9598 to reject the noise from the digital power supplies (see the Typical Operating Characteristics). If the
digital power supply is very noisy and stripes appear on
the television screen, increase the supply bypass capacitance. An additional, smaller capacitor in parallel with the
main bypass capacitor can reduce digital supply noise
because the smaller capacitor has lower equivalent series
resistance (ESR) and equivalent series inductance (ESL).
Layout and Grounding
For optimal performance, use controlled-impedance
traces for video signal paths and place input termination resistors and output back-termination resistors

close to the MAX9598. Avoid routing video traces parallel to high-speed data lines.
The MAX9598 provides separate ground connections
for video and audio supplies. For best performance,
use separate ground planes for each of the ground
returns and connect all ground planes together at a single point. Refer to the MAX9598 Evaluation Kit for a
proven PCB layout example.
If the MAX9598 is mounted using flow soldering or wave
soldering, the ground via(s) for the exposed pad should
have a finished hole size of at least 14 mils to ensure
adequate wicking of soldering onto the exposed pad. If
the MAX9598 is mounted using solder mask technique,
the via requirement does not apply. In either case, a
good connection between the exposed pad and ground
is required in order to minimize noise from coupling onto
the outputs.
