1GHz, 4 x 1 Multiplexing Amplifier
Features
The ISL59442 is a single-output 4:1 MUX-amp. The
MUX-amp has a fixed gain of 1 and a 1GHz bandwidth. The
device contains logic inputs for channel selection (S0, S1),
and a three-state output control (HIZ) for individual
selection of MUX amps that share a common video output
line. All logic inputs have pull-downs to ground and may be
left floating.

NOTE: Intersil Pb-free plus anneal products employ special Pb-free material
sets; molding compounds/die attach materials and 100% matte tin plate
termination finish, which are RoHS compliant and compatible with both SnPb
and Pb-free soldering operations. Intersil Pb-free products are MSL classified at
Pb-free peak reflow temperatures that meet or exceed the Pb-free requirements
of IPC/JEDEC J STD-020.

Application Information
Power-Up Considerations
The ESD protection circuits use internal diodes from all pins the
V+ and V- supplies. In addition, a dV/dT- triggered clamp is
connected between the V+ and V- pins, as shown in the
Equivalent Circuits 1 through 4 section of the Pin Description
table. The dV/dT triggered clamp imposes a maximum supply
turn-on slew rate of 1V/µs. Damaging currents can flow for
power supply rates-of-rise in excess of 1V/µs, such as during
hot plugging. Under these conditions, additional methods
should be employed to ensure the rate of rise is not exceeded.
General
The ISL59442 is a 4:1 mux that is ideal as a matrix element in
high performance switchers and routers. The ISL59442 is
optimized to drive a 2pF in parallel with a 500Ω load. The
capacitance can be split between the PCB capacitance an and
external load capacitance. Their low input capacitance and high
input resistance provide excellent 50Ω or 75Ω terminations.
Capacitance at the Output
The output amplifier is optimized for capacitance to ground
(CL) directly on the output pin. Increased capacitance
causes higher peaking with an increase in bandwidth. The
optimum range for most applications is ~1.0pF to ~6pF. The
optimum value can be achieved through a combination of
PC board trace capacitance (CT) and an external capacitor
(COUT). A good method to maintain control over the output
pin capacitance is to minimize the trace length (CT) to the
next component, and include a discrete surface mount
capacitor (COUT) directly at the output pin.
Consideration must be given to the order in which power is
applied to the V+ and V- pins, as well as analog and logic
input pins. Schottky diodes (Motorola MBR0550T or
equivalent) connected from V+ to ground and V- to ground
(Figure 23) will shunt damaging currents away from the
internal V+ and V- ESD diodes in the event that the V+
supply is applied to the device before the V- supply.
For large signal applications where overshoot is important
the circuit in Figure 22B should be used. The series resistor
(RS) and capacitor (CL) form a low pass network that limits
system bandwidth and reduces overshoot. The component
values shown result in a typical pulse response shown in
Figure 18.
If positive voltages are applied to the logic or analog video
input pins before V+ is applied, current will flow through the
internal ESD diodes to the V+ pin. The presence of large
decoupling capacitors and the loading effect of other circuits
connected to V+, can result in damaging currents through
the ESD diodes and other active circuits within the device.
Therefore, adequate current limiting on the digital and
analog inputs is needed to prevent damage during the time
the voltages on these inputs are more positive than V+.
Ground Connections
HIZ State
For the best isolation and crosstalk rejection, the GND pin
and NIC pins must connect to the GND plane. The NIC pins
are placed on both sides of the input pins. These pins are
not internally connected to the die. It is recommended this
pin be tied to ground to minimize crosstalk.
An internal pull-down resistor connected to the HIZ pin ensures
the device will be active with no connection to the HIZ pin. The
HIZ state is established within approximately 30ns by placing a
logic high (>2V) on the HIZ pin. If the HIZ state is selected, the
output is a high impedance 1.4MΩ. Use this state to control the
logic when more than one mux shares a common output.
Control Signals
In the HIZ state the output is three-stated, and maintains its
high Z even in the presence of high slew rates. The supply
current during this state is basically the same as the active
state.
S0, S1, HIZ - These pins are, TTL/CMOS compatible control
inputs. The S0, S1 pins select which one of the inputs
connect to the output. The HIZ pin is used to three-state the
output amplifiers. For control signal rise and fall times less
than 10nsec the use of termination resistors close to the part
will minimize transients coupled to the output.

Limiting the Output Current
No output short circuit current limit exists on these parts. All
applications need to limit the output current to less than 50mA.
Adequate thermal heat sinking of the parts is also required.

PC Board Layout
The frequency response of this circuit depends greatly on
the care taken in designing the PC board. The following are
recommendations to achieve optimum high frequency
performance from your PC board.
• The use of low inductance components such as chip
resistors and chip capacitors is strongly recommended.
• Minimize signal trace lengths. Trace inductance and
capacitance can easily limit circuit performance. Avoid
sharp corners, use rounded corners when possible. Vias
in the signal lines add inductance at high frequency and
should be avoided. PCB traces greater than 1" begin to
exhibit transmission line characteristics with signal rise/fall
times of 1ns or less. High frequency performance may be
degraded for traces greater than one inch, unless strip
lines are used.
• Match channel-channel analog I/O trace lengths and
layout symmetry. This will minimize propagation delay
mismatches.
• Maximize use of AC de-coupled PCB layers. All signal I/O
lines should be routed over continuous ground planes (i.e.
no split planes or PCB gaps under these lines). Avoid vias
in the signal I/O lines.
• Use proper value and location of termination resistors.
Termination resistors should be as close to the device as
possible.
• When testing use good quality connectors and cables,
matching cable types and keeping cable lengths to a
minimum.
• Minimum of 2 power supply de-coupling capacitors are
recommended (1000pF, 0.01µF) as close to the devices
as possible. Avoid vias between the cap and the device
because vias add unwanted inductance. Larger caps can
be farther away. When vias are required in a layout, they
should be routed as far away from the device as possible.
• The NIC pins are placed on both sides of the input pins.
These pins are not internally connected to the die. It is
recommended these pins be tied to ground to minimize
crosstalk.
