MAXIM MAX4895E

19-4569; Rev 0; 4/09
VGA Port Protector
Features
The MAX4895E integrates level-translating buffers and
features R, G, B port protection for VGA signals.
♦ ESD Protection on H1, V1, SDA1, SCL1, R, G, and B
The MAX4895E has H, V (horizontal, vertical) translating buffers that take low-level CMOS inputs from the
graphics outputs to meet full +5.0V, TTL-compatible
outputs. Each output can drive ±10mA and meet the
VESA® specification. In addition, the device takes the
+5.0V, direct digital control (DDC) signals and translates them to the lower level required by the graphics
device. This level is set by the user by connecting VL to
the graphics output supply. The R, G, B terminals protect the graphics output pins against electrostatic discharge (ESD) events. All seven outputs have high-level
ESD protection.
The MAX4895E is specified over the extended -40°C to
+85°C temperature range, and is available in a 16-pin,
3mm x 3mm TQFN package.

Applications Information
Detailed Description
The MAX4895E provides the level shifting necessary to
drive two standard VGA ports from a graphics controller
as low as +2.2V. Internal buffers drive the HSYNC and
VSYNC signals to VGA standard TTL levels. The DDC
switch provides level shifting by clamping signals to a
diode drop less than VL (see the Typical Operating
Circuit). Connect VL to +3.3V for normal operation.
The MAX4895E integrates level-translating buffers and
features R, G, B port protection for VGA signals.
Horizontal and vertical synchronization (H0/V0) inputs
feature level-shifting buffers to support low-voltage
CMOS or standard TTL-compatible graphics controllers. The device meets ±10µA VESA drive requirements. The MAX4895E also features I2C level shifting
using two nMOS devices. All outputs maintain ±15kV
Human Body Model (HBM) and ±8kV Contact
Discharge per IEC 61000-4-2 on seven terminals
(SDA1, SCL1, H1, V1, R, G, B). The R, G, B pads protect the digital-to-analog converter (DAC) and are simply placed in parallel with the R, G, B outputs for the
DAC and VGA socket.
Power-Supply Decoupling
Bypass V CC and V L to ground with a 1µF ceramic
capacitor as close as possible to the device.
PCB Layout
High-speed switches such as the MAX4895E require
proper PCB layout for optimum performance. Ensure
that impedance-controlled PCB traces for high-speed
signals are matched in length and are as short as possible. Connect the exposed pad to a solid ground
plane.

Horizontal/Vertical Sync Level Shifter
RGB
HSYNC/VSYNC are buffered to provide level shifting
and drive capability to meet the VESA specification.
Input logic levels (VIL, VIH) are connected to VL (see
the Electrical Characteristics table). The level-shifted
outputs (H1 and V1) are pulled low when EN is driven
low (see Table 1). Logic-level output (VOL, VOH) are
+5.0V TTL compatible.
There are three terminals for R, G, and B. The only
function of these terminals is to provide high-level ESD
protection to the RGB lines, while at the same time,
keeping the capacitance on the RGB lines to a minimum. The R, G, B terminals are identical, and any of
the three terminals can be used to protect red, green,
or blue video signals.
Display Data Channel Switches
ESD Protection
The MAX4895E incorporates two nMOS switches for I2C
level shifting. The SDA, SCL terminals are voltage
clamped to a diode drop less than the V L voltage.
Voltage clamping provides protection and compatibility
with SDA, SCL signals and low-voltage ASICs. Supply
+2.5V to +3.3V on VL to provide voltage clamping for
VESA I2C-compatible signals. The SDA, SCL switches
are identical, and each switch can be used to route
SDA or SCL signals.
As with all Maxim devices, ESD-protection structures
are incorporated on all terminals to protect against
electrostatic discharges encountered during handling
and assembly. Additionally, the MAX4895E is protected
to ±15kV on the RGB terminals and outputs H1, V1,
SDA1, and SCL1 by the Human Body Model (HBM). For
optimum ESD performance, bypass VCC to ground with
a 1µF ceramic capacitor.
ESD protection can be tested in various ways. The R,
G, B terminals and outputs H1, V1, SDA1, and SCL1 of
the MAX4895E are characterized for protection to the
following limits:

IEC 61000-4-2
The IEC 61000-4-2 standard covers ESD testing and
performance of finished equipment. However, it does
not specifically refer to integrated circuits. The
MAX4895E assists in designing equipment to meet IEC
61000-4-2 without the need for additional ESD-protection components.

The major difference between tests done using the
Human Body Model and IEC 61000-4-2 is higher peak
current in IEC 61000-4-2 because series resistance is
lower in the IEC 61000-4-2 model. Hence, the ESD withstand voltage measured to IEC 61000-4-2 is generally
lower than that measured using the Human Body Model.
