The ISL59601, ISL59602, ISL59603, ISL59604, and
ISL59605 (the “MegaQ™” product family) are
single-channel adaptive equalizers designed to
automatically compensate for long runs of Cat 5/6 or
RG-59 cable, producing high quality video output with no
user interaction. The ISL59601 equalizes Cat 5/6 up to a
distance of 1000 feet (300 meters), while the ISL59605
equalizes up to 5300 feet (1600 meters).
Features
MegaQ™ compensates for high frequency cable losses
of up to 60dB (ISL59605) at 5MHz as well as source
amplitude variations up to ±3dB.
• Compatible with Color or Monochrome, NTSC or PAL
Signals
The ISL59601, ISL59602, ISL59603, ISL59604, and
ISL59605 operate from a single +5V supply. Inputs are
AC-coupled and internally DC-restored. The output can
drive 2VP-P into two source-terminated 75Ω loads
(AC-coupled or DC-coupled).
• Compensates for ±3dB Source Variation (in Addition
to Cable Losses)

DESCRIPTION
3
IN+
High impedance analog input. This is the positive differential video input. Input signals are
externally AC-coupled with an external 1.0μF capacitor. See Applications Information section for
information regarding input network for Cat x and coax cables.
5
IN-
High impedance analog input. This is the negative differential video input. Input signals are
externally AC-coupled with an external 1.0μF capacitor. See Applications Information section for
information regarding input network for Cat x and coax cables.
12
CFB
Analog input. Bypass to ground with a 1500pF capacitor and connect to VIDEO OUT via a 0.022μF
capacitor in series with a 300Ω resistor.
INPUTS
OUTPUTS
13
VIDEO OUT Single-ended video output. The internal AGC sets this level to 2VP-P for a nominal 1VP-P
(pre-cable) video source.
DIGITAL I/O
7
EQ_DISABLE Digital Input. Equalizer Disable.
0: Normal Operation
1: Disables the equalizer to allow for insertion of upstream data onto the signal path, e.g. RS-485.
8
COLOR
Digital I/O. Color Indicator/Override.
0: Monochrome
1: Color
When used as an output, this pin indicates whether the incoming signal does or does not have a
colorburst. When used as an input, this pin forces the state machine to into monochrome or color
mode. See Figure 49 and associated text for more information on functionality.
When COLOR is not externally driven, it is an output pin with a 13k (typical) output impedance. It
is capable of driving 5V, high-impedance CMOS logic.
Note: The COLOR indicator may be invalid for monochrome signals over greater than ~4800 feet.
The device will still equalize properly if this occurs.
9
INVERT
Digital I/O. Polarity Indicator/Override.
0: Nominal Polarity.
1: Inverted Polarity.
When used as an output, this pin indicates the polarity of the incoming signal. When used as an
input, this pin controls whether or not the input signal is inverted in the signal chain. See Figure 48
and associated text for more information on functionality.
When INVERT is not externally driven, it is an output pin with a 13k (typical) output impedance.
It is capable of driving 5V, high-impedance CMOS logic.
In stand-alone mode, toggling this pin high-low-high or low-high-low will make the equalizer
reacquire the signal.
10
LOCKED
Digital Output.
0: Signal is not equalized (or not present).
1: Signal is equalized and settled.
Note: The LOCKED indicator may be invalid for monochrome signals over greater than ~4800 feet.
The device will still equalize properly if this occurs.
16
FREEZE
Digital Input. Freezes equalizer in its current EQ state.
0: Continuous Update
1: Freeze EQ in current state.
For stand-alone operations, connect FREEZE to the LOCKED pin to enter the recommended Lock
Until Reset mode.

Functional Description
Equalization for Various Cable Types
TABLE 1. CABLE TYPES AND LENGTHS
MegaQ™ Overview
MegaQ™ is a fully automated, stand-alone equalizer for
composite video transmitted over UTP (Unshielded
Twisted Pair, i.e. Cat 5, Cat 6, etc.) or coaxial (RG-59)
cables.
Copper-Core
Differential video signals sent over long distances of
twisted pair wire exhibit large high frequency
attenuation, resulting in loss of high frequency
detail/blurring. The exact loss characteristic is a complex
function of wire gauge, length, composition, and coupling
to adjacent conductors.
The video signal can be restored by applying a filter with
the exact inverse transfer function to the far end signal.
MegaQ™ is designed to compensate for the losses due to
long cables, and incorporates the functionality and
flexibility to match a wide variety of cable types and loss
characteristics.

Application Information
UTP Application Circuit
Figure 45 shows the complete schematic for a MegaQ™
equalizer configured for UTP cable. The input signal is
terminated into the network formed by R1, R2, and R3.
The original datasheet and evaluation boards
recommended different values for the termination
network as well as an additional resistor and capacitor
that were not necessary. C1 and C2 AC-couple the signal
into MegaQ™.
On the output side, C5, R5, and C4 form a compensation
network, while R6 provides 75Ω source-termination for
the video output. MegaQ™ has an native gain of 6dB, so
when VIDEO OUT is terminated into 75Ω (the input to a
DVR, TV, etc.), R6 and the 75Ω terminator form a 2:1
divider, producing standard video amplitude across the
75Ω terminator.
Coax Input Circuit
Figure 46 shows the input termination recommended for
coaxial cables, which is the same as that used for UTP
cables except for the addition of C10, which bypasses
high-frequency noise on the coax ground line to system
ground. This allows the coax ground to be independent of
the system at low frequencies (DC to 50/60Hz) to
accommodate differences in the ground potential of the
remote video source(s). The original datasheet and
evaluation boards had a more complex network that did
not perform as well as this one, but they can be easily
modified (with component substitutions only) to match
this one.

FIGURE 46. APPLICATION CIRCUIT FOR COAX CABLE
Dual UTP/Coax Input Circuit
If desired, it is also possible to support both UTP and
coax cables with the same PCB layout. Since the
termination network is very similar for both UTP and
coax, this becomes as simple as having both connectors
tied to the input network, adding a switch to introduce
C10 when in coax mode, and making a minor
compromise on the termination values when using UTP.
Note that only coax or UTP should be connected at any
one time - this circuit does not multiplex between them.
Terminating UTP into 75Ω instead of 100Ω results in no
detectable change in the quality of the output signal,
while terminating 75Ω coax into 100Ω does significantly
degrade the video. Terminating UTP into 75Ω will slightly
attenuate the input signal, however MegaQ™’s AGC
capability compensates for the loss.
21
Input Multiplexing
Placing a semiconductor multiplexer in front of this part
may increase high frequency attenuation and noise.
However a low-capacitance mechanical relay may be
acceptable. Note that changing from one channel to
another in Lock Until Reset mode will require a reset
(INVERT toggle) to trigger equalization of the new
channel (see “Lock Until RESET” on page 21).

For best performance, do not multiplex the inputs to the
equalizer - this can further degrade the signal. Instead,
multiplex at the output after equalization has been
performed.
Stand-Alone Operation and Configuration
In its default stand-alone configuration, MegaQ™
features two modes of automatic cable equalization:
Lock Until Reset and Continuous Update. Lock Until
Reset is the recommended mode for most applications.
LOCK UNTIL RESET
In the Lock Until Reset mode, once MegaQ™ finds the
optimum equalization and the LOCKED signal goes high,
the equalization is frozen and will not change until either
the power is cycled or the INVERT signal is toggled,
which initiates a re-equalization of the input signal. Reequalization is usually only necessary during
device/system evaluation - in normal operation MegaQ™
powers-up, acquires and equalizes the signal, and
continues to equalize until/unless it is powered-down. If
the signal is lost in Lock Until Reset mode, the LOCKED
pin will not go low until/unless the device is reset by
toggling the INVERT pin. A reset should only be
necessary if the length or type of cable was changed
without cycling power.
To enable the Lock Until Reset mode, tie the LOCKED
output pin to the FREEZE input pin as shown in Figure 45
on page 20.
To generate a reset (and trigger a re-equalization),
toggle the external INVERT pin. Depending on the initial
state of INVERT, this would be a high-low-high or
low-high-low sequence.
CONTINUOUS UPDATE
In the Continuous Update mode, MegaQ™ will
continuously try to find the optimum equalization
solution. When the equalization has settled for 100
sequential video lines with no changes, the LOCKED pin
FN6739.1
November 23, 2010
ISL59601, ISL59602, ISL59603, ISL59604, ISL59605
will go high. However once lock is achieved, noise and
average-picture-level changes may cause the device to
unlock, causing some image perturbation while MegaQ™
re-equalizes.
The Continuous Update mode is enabled whenever the
FREEZE pin is set to a logic low (grounded).
colorburst or not. The state of the color signal is then
used to tell the signal processing logic whether or not it
can rely on the presence of a colorburst signal. A logic
high indicates a color signal; a logic low indicates
monochrome.
Polarity Detection and Correction
MegaQ™ features polarity detection and correction,
automatically detecting incorrectly-wired input signals
and inverting the signal inside the IC as necessary. The
detected polarity is indicated by the state of the INVERT
pin.
The INVERT pin has 2 modes of operation. It is typically
used to indicate whether or not the incoming signal is
inverted (the “+” signal on the “-” input and vice-versa).
The state of the invert signal is then used to tell the
signal processing logic whether or not to invert the signal
in the signal path.
A logic high on INVERT indicates that the positive
differential input signal is on IN- (pin 5) and the negative
differential input signal is on IN+ (pin 3). A logic low
indicates nominal polarity.
However the unique design of the INVERT I/O pin
(Figure 48) also allows MegaQ™’s internal inversion
detector to be overdriven externally, forcing MegaQ™ to
invert or not invert the signal regardless of the state of
the inversion detection function. This is not necessary in
normal operation, but it may improve performance in
particularly noisy environments when the polarity of the
signal is guaranteed to be correct.
FIGURE 49. COLOR PIN STRUCTURE
However the unique design of the COLOR I/O pin
(Figure 49) also allows MegaQ™’s internal color detector
to be overdriven externally. This is not necessary in
normal operation, but it may improve performance in
particularly noisy environments when the signal type is
predetermined.
Monochrome Video Signals
MegaQ™ will equalize monochrome signals to the same
distance as color signals. However due to the high level
of noise past ~4800 feet, above ~4800 feet the COLOR
and LOCKED indicators may become invalid for
monochrome signals. The device will still equalize
properly if this occurs.
Security Cameras
MegaQ™ is ideal for security camera installations.
The automatic adaptive equalizer doesn't need any active
silicon on the transmit side of the cable, enabling
upgrading of older installations without having to touch
the installed camera base, including older monochrome
cameras.
FIGURE 48. INVERT PIN STRUCTURE
The COLOR Pin
The color pin has 2 modes of operation. It is typically
used to indicate whether or not the incoming signal has a

MegaQ™ automatically adjusts for wiring polarity errors
as well as adjusts for optimum image quality. These
features eliminates the need for the installer to make any
adjustments.
With an extended equalization range of 5300ft, the
ISL59605 enables cameras to be placed in even more
remote locations, enabling coverage of up to three
square miles from a single monitoring station.

Additional Equalization Modes Available
With the Serial Interface
In addition to the Lock Until Reset and Continuous
Update modes, software control of MegaQ™ through the
I2C interface adds a Lock Until Signal Loss mode and a
Manual Equalization mode.
Note: When controlling MegaQ™ through the I2C
interface, the external FREEZE pin must be tied to
ground (logic low). Failure to keep FREEZE at a logic low
will prevent the software controls from working properly.
All of the equalization modes are selected via the two
“Locking Mode/Manual Length Enable” register bits,
0x05[1:0].
CONTINUOUS UPDATE
Continuous Update mode is entered by setting address
0x05[1:0] = 00b. Continuous Update behavior is the
same as described in the stand-alone mode.
LOCK UNTIL RESET
Lock Until Reset mode is entered by setting address
0x05[1:0] = 10b. Lock Until Reset behavior is the
same as described in the stand-alone mode, with the
exception of how to generate a reset.
To generate a reset via software, select Continuous
Update mode and then return to Lock Until Reset
mode (register 0x05[1:0] = 00b then 10b). Toggling
INVERT (either the hardware pin or the software bit) will
not cause a reset/re-equalization event.
LOCK UNTIL SIGNAL LOSS
Lock Until Signal Loss mode is entered by setting
address 0x05[1:0] = 01b. Lock Until Signal Loss can
only be enabled via the I2C interface.
In the Lock Until Signal Loss mode, MegaQ™ will
freeze the equalization once the LOCKED pin goes high
(in the same way as Lock Until Reset). Unlike the
“Settled” state in the Continuous Update mode, only a
signal loss lasting more than 1ms (typical) will cause
MegaQ™ to re-equalize the signal when it returns. In this
sense, the Lock Until Signal Loss mode can be
considered as halfway between the Continuous Update
mode and the Lock Until Reset mode. The Lock Until
Signal Loss mode is useful, for example, when testing
or demonstrating a system by plugging in multiple
different length cables - it eliminates the need to also
generate a reset. To prevent potentially undesired reequalization, signal losses lasting less than 1ms (typical)
do not trigger a re-equalization.
23
MANUAL LENGTH
Manual Length mode is entered by setting address
0x05[1:0] = 11b. Manual Length mode allows the
forcing of specific cable lengths, DC gains, etc. (see the
Register Listing on the next page). However since many
of MegaQ™’s automatic functions and adjustments are
disabled in Manual Length mode, performance is
almost always worse than what is achieved in any of the
automatic modes. For example, automatic polarity
correction is disabled so the polarity must be manually
set using the INVERT bit. There is no practical reason to
ever use Manual Length mode in normal operation.
Serial Interface Protocol
While MegaQ™ is designed to work as a stand-alone
equalizer, it does have a serial interface that can be used
to control it and monitor its state.
The serial interface is used to read and write the
configuration registers. It uses three signals (SCK, SD,
and SEN) for programming. The serial clock can operate
up to 5MHz (5Mbits/s). The “Serial Timing Diagram” on
page 8 shows the timing of serial I/O.
A transaction begins when the host microcontroller takes
SEN (serial enable) high. The first 8 bits on the SD (serial
data) pin are latched by MegaQ™ on the rising edge of
SCK (serial clock) to form the address byte. The MSB of
the address byte indicates whether the operation is a
read (1) or a write (0), and the next seven bits indicate
which register is to be read from or written to. Each read
and write operation consists of 16 bits: 8 bits for an
address byte followed by 8 bits of data. See the “Serial
Timing Diagram” on page 8 for more details on using the
SPI interface.

1 = Read

WRITE OPERATION
After the address byte is clocked in, the next 8 bits
should contain the data to be sent to the register
identified in the address byte.
READ OPERATION
After the rising edge of the 8th clock after the address byte
is clocked in, the microcontroller should tristate the SD line
so MegaQ™ can begin to output data on the SD pin (from
the register identified in the address byte), beginning on
the 9th rising edge of SCK. The data should be latched on
the falling edge of SCK to allow enough time for the data to
settle. See ““Serial Timing Diagram” on page 8 for more
details on how to read from the registers.

Bypassing and Layout
Considerations
MegaQ™ requires a dedicated ground plane in
order to function properly. For 2-layer boards, pour a
quarter-inch ground plane extending around the device
on both the top and bottom layers. Ensure that the
ground plane on the bottom layer is a solid plane with
no traces cutting through it. Bypass capacitors must be
placed as close as possible to the device in order to
ensure good performance at longer lengths of
equalization. Ensure that the ground connections for the
bypass capacitors connect directly to the same uniform
ground plane described above.
General PowerPAD Design Considerations
The thermal pad must be connected to the ground plane
for heat dissipation. Figure 50 is an example of how to
use vias to remove heat from the IC.
have a solid connection of the plated-through hole to
each plane.
Power Dissipation
The maximum power dissipation allowed in a package is
determined according to Equation 1:
T JMAX – T AMAX
PD MAX = -------------------------------------------Θ JA
(EQ. 1)
Where:
TJMAX = Maximum junction temperature
TAMAX = Maximum ambient temperature
ΘJA = Thermal resistance of the package
The maximum power dissipation actually produced by an
IC is the total quiescent supply current times the total
power supply voltage, plus the power in the IC due to the
load, or:
for sourcing use Equation 2:
V OUT
PD MAX = V S × I SMAX + ( V S – V OUT ) × --------------RL
FIGURE 50. PCB VIA PATTERN
The thermal pad is electrically connected to GND through
the high resistance IC substrate. We recommend you fill
the thermal pad area with vias. The via array should be
centered in the thermal pad and placed such that the
center on center spacing is 3x the via radius. Vias should
be small, but large enough to allow solder wicking during
reflow. Connect all vias to ground. It is important the vias
have a low thermal resistance for efficient heat transfer.
Do not use “thermal relief” patterns. It is important to

(EQ. 2)
for sinking use Equation 3:
(EQ. 3)
PD MAX = V S × I SMAX + ( V OUT – V S ) × I LOAD
Where:
VS = Supply voltage
ISMAX = Maximum quiescent supply current
VOUT = Maximum output voltage of the application
RLOAD = Load resistance tied to ground
ILOAD = Load current
