Maxim MAX9547ESA+ Differential video interface chipset Datasheet

19-3873; Rev 3; 10/07
Differential Video Interface Chipset
The MAX9546/MAX9547 differential interface chipset
converts single-ended voltages to differential voltages for
transport and then converts back to single-ended voltages. These devices eliminate costly, bulky, singleended coaxial cables with inexpensive, readily available,
differential shielded (ScTP) or unshielded (UTP) twisted
pairs. The fault detection of the MAX9546 and loss-of-signal detection of the MAX9547 allow proactive and
speedy diagnosis, such as identifying failures in the manufacturing stage and troubleshooting equipment at repair
facilities. The MAX9546/MAX9547 are low-cost, convenient solutions for transporting CVBS/FBAS analog video
signals (PAL or NTSC) through hostile environments.
The MAX9546 driver converts the single-ended input into
a differential output with a 6dB fixed gain to drive a backterminated, DC-coupled differential video output to unity
gain. This DC connection allows the detection of a shortcircuit condition at the differential outputs. The FAULT
output indicates a short-circuit condition including a short
to a high battery condition (VBAT = +16V) or ground.
The MAX9547 receiver converts the differential signal
from the MAX9546 into a single-ended signal. Like the
MAX9546 output, the MAX9547 input survives a short to
a high battery condition or ground. The MAX9547 receiver loss-of-signal output (LOS) operates by detecting the
H-Sync and thus can support both monochrome and
color video signals. The MAX9547 gain is set with an
external impedance between ZT+ and ZT-.
The MAX9546/MAX9547 operate from a 7.5V to 10V
single supply. Both devices include ±15kV ESD Human
Body Model (HBM) protection. The MAX9546/MAX9547
are offered in a thermally enhanced 8-pin SO package
and specified over the -40°C to +85°C extended temperature range.

Note 1: The Absolute Maximum Ratings of OUT+/OUT- for the MAX9546 and IN+/IN- for the MAX9547 are based on a single-fault
condition, i.e. only one output of MAX9546 (or both outputs together) is shorted to the battery, VCC or GND. The devices will
not survive a double-fault condition, i.e. OUT+ and OUT- shorted to different supplies.
Note 2: Package thermal resistances were obtained using the method described in JEDEC specification JESD51-7, using a 4-layer
board. For detailed information on package thermal considerations see www.maxim-ic.com/thermal-tutorial.
Stresses beyond those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and functional
operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated in the operational sections of the specifications is not implied. Exposure to
absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.

All devices are 100% production tested at TA = +25°C. All temperature limits are guaranteed by design.
Defined as differential output to single-ended input.
Input is AC-coupled.
The RC time constant (3Hz) formed by the source resistance (RS) and coupling capacitor (CIN) is usually used for lead
compensation of the active clamp. The source resistance is 400Ω max. The clamp should remain stable in this condition.
Differential mode is measured as (OUT+ - OUT-). Common mode is measured as OUT+ + OUT2
A fault is when the outputs both sink and source current and the amount of extra current sink or source is greater than 3mA.
Common-mode balance is measured as 20log((OUT+ - OUT-) / (OUT+ + OUT-)).

These results were measured with a MAX4144 receiver, other receivers may affect results.
Ground between MAX9546 and MAX9547 can be a ±2V difference.
A loss-of-signal is when the input video signal of the MAX9547 does not change (cross 100mV level from sync tip) for 10
video lines.
These results were measured with a MAX4447 transmitter and a MAX4012 buffer amplifier with a gain of 4. Using other
devices may affect results.

Detailed Description
The MAX9546/MAX9547 differential interface chipset
converts single-ended voltages to differential voltages
for transport and then converts back to single-ended
voltages. The chipset is optimized for transporting
CVBS/FBAS analog video signals (PAL or NTSC)
through hostile automotive environments. The
MAX9546 driver includes a fault output (FAULT) that
indicates shorted transmission cables. The MAX9547
receiver loss-of-signal output (LOS) indicates an
absence of input signal.
The MAX9546/MAX9547 operate from a 7.5V to 10V single supply. The differential interface is immune to shortcircuit conditions to an automotive battery (VBAT = 16V),
8
supply (VCC), or ground. These devices include ±15kV
ESD (Human Body Model) protection.
MAX9546
Driver
The MAX9546 driver converts a single-ended video
input into a differential output for transport across a
twisted pair of wires. The input is AC-coupled and the
video signal sync tip is clamped at 3.46V to set the
voltage of the input. The output common-mode voltage
is optimized to reject ground differences between the
MAX9546 and MAX9547 up to ±2V. The differential
gain is internally set to 2V/V to drive a back-terminated
output to unity gain. The maximum input resistance
should not exceed 400Ω to ensure device stability.
_______________________________________________________________________________________
Differential Video Interface Chipset
Common-mode balance is dominated by the gain-bandwidth product at high frequencies and the output resistance at low frequencies; therefore, it is important to
specify CMB over a frequency range. The receiver-side
balance is determined by the common-mode rejection
ratio (CMRR). The CMRR is usually quite large compared
to the CMB; therefore, the CMB is the limiting factor.
Fault Protection and Detection
The MAX9546 fault protection insures the driver outputs
survive a short to any voltage from -2V to +16V and are
ESD-protected to ±15kV HBM. Faults are indicated by
an open-drain fault output (FAULT) being asserted low
and requires a pullup resistor from FAULT to VCC.
MAX9547
Receiver
The MAX9547 receiver is a differential-to-single-ended
converter that removes any common-mode input. The
unique architecture allows the signal gain to be set by
a ratio of two impedances: the user-selected transconductance element or network (ZZT), and an output load
resistance, RL. The gain is set by a fixed internal current gain (K) and the ratio of ZZT and RL. The ZT terminals can be bridged with a complex impedance to
provide lead-lag compensation.
The output is essentially a voltage-controlled current
source as shown in Figure 1. The MAX9547 output is a
current proportional to the differential input voltage, and
inversely proportional to the impedance of the userselected transconductance network, ZZT. The current
output provides inherent short-circuit protection for the
output terminal. A differential input voltage applied to the
input terminals causes current to flow in the transconductance element (ZZT), which is equal to VIN / ZZT. This current in the transconductance element is multiplied by the
preset current gain (K) and appears on the output terminal as a current equal to (K) x (VIN / ZZT). This current
flows through the load impedance to produce an output
voltage according to the following equation:

where K = current-gain ratio (K = 1 for MAX9547), RL =
output load impedance, ZZT = transconductance element impedance, VIN = differential input voltage.
Loss-of-Signal
The receiver includes an LOS output to indicate a signal by detecting the presence of H-Sync. This allows
the MAX9547 to be used with monochrome or color
video. LOS is an open-drain output and requires a
pullup resistor from LOS to VCC.
Setting the Circuit Gain
The MAX9547 produces an output current by multiplying the differential input voltage, VIN, by the transconductance ratio, K (RL / ZZT), where K = 1. The voltage
gain (AV) is set by the impedance of the transconductance network (ZZT) and the output load impedance
(RL) according to the following formula:
⎛ R ⎞
A V = K⎜ L ⎟
⎝ Z ZT ⎠
The factor ZZT is the impedance of the user-selected,
two-terminal transconductance element or network,
connected across the terminals labeled ZT+ and ZT-.
The network Z ZT is selected, along with the output
impedance RL, to provide the desired circuit gain and
frequency shaping.
To maintain linearity, the transconductance network
should also be selected so that current flowing through
it, equal to VIN / ZZT, does not exceed 18mA under
worst-case conditions of maximum input voltage and
minimum transconductance element impedance (ZZT).
Output current should not exceed ±8.8mA except
under fault conditions.

MAX9546/MAX9547
Common-Mode Balance
A driver is typically specified as having a property called
common-mode balance (CMB), longitudinal balance, or
simply line imbalance. Although balance is associated
with the source, it assumes a perfectly balanced, correctly terminated, differential load. Common-mode balance is a measure of the ratio between the differential to
the common-mode output in decibels as shown below.

brands entirely. The overall performance of the
MAX9546/MAX9547 is dependent on the choice of the
receiver or transmitter, respectively.
Figure 2 illustrates one possible topology for the
MAX9546 when using other devices with different offset
requirements. Figures 3 and 4 illustrate two possible
topologies for the MAX9547 when using other devices
with unknown or different offset requirements. The circuit shown in Figure 3 has a smaller PCB footprint at
the expense of requiring higher DC offset currents from
the source device. Figure 4 requires no DC offset currents although it has a larger PCB footprint.
Applications Information
Differential Interface
The impedances of the differential interface are made
up of the two source resistors on the driver (MAX9546)
shown as RS and the load resistors on the receiver
(MAX9547) shown as RT in the Typical Application
Circuit. These resistors are chosen so their sum matches the characteristic impedance (Z0) of the differential
transmission line. For example, a Category 5 cable has
a characteristic impedance of 110Ω, so the sum of the
two RS or RT resistors must be 110Ω to correctly drive
the line. To balance the signals they must be equal, so
RS and RT are 55Ω each.
When using the MAX9546 with AC-coupling capacitors,
the FAULT signal will continue to function but only with
respect to a DC short condition. The LOS signal from
the MAX9547 is unaffected by coupling capacitors.

MAX9546/MAX9547
±15kV ESD Protection
As with all Maxim devices, ESD-protection structures
are incorporated on all pins to protect against electrostatic discharges encountered during handling and
assembly. The driver outputs and receiver inputs have
extra protection against static electricity. Maxim’s engineers developed state-of-the-art structures to protect
these pins against ESD of ±15kV without damage. The
ESD structures withstand high ESD in all states: normal
operation and powered down. After an ESD event, the
MAX9546/MAX9547 keep working without latchup. ESD
protection can be tested in various ways; the driver outputs and receiver inputs of this product family are characterized for protection to ±15kV using the Human
Body Model. Other ESD test methodologies include IEC
IEC 1000-4-2
The IEC 1000-4-2 standard covers ESD testing and
performance of finished equipment; it does not specifically refer to integrated circuits (Figure 7).
The major difference between tests done using the
Human Body Model and IEC 1000-4-2 is higher peak
current in IEC 1000-4-2, because series resistance is
lower in the IEC 1000-4-2 model. Hence, the ESD with-
RC
50Ω to 100Ω
stand voltage measured to IEC 1000-4-2 is generally
lower than that measured using the Human Body Model.
Figure 8 shows the current waveform for the ±8kV IEC
1000-4-2 ESD Contact-Discharge test. The Air-Gap test
involves approaching the device with a charged probe.
The Contact-Discharge method connects the probe to
the device before the probe is energized.
