Triple 16x5 Differential Crosspoint Switch
Capable of Operation in Single-Ended or
Differential Input Modes
The EL4544 is a high bandwidth 16-channel differential RGB
to 5-channel RGB single-ended RGB-HV video crosspoint
switch with embedded sync extraction. Four 16-channel
input muxes, each capable of receiving a complete RGB
video signal, and five output muxes, each capable of
“seeing” any one of the four RGB inputs. Additionally, the
fifth input mux has an overlay “screen on screen” function
that can be displayed in conjunction with any of the stacked
RGB inputs.
The EL4544 has a fast disable feature to reduce power
consumption. The device also provides a presence of signal
indicator by looking for syncs on a designated channel.

Functional Overview
Overall Functionality
The EL4544 is a video crosspoint switch that has 16 (RGB
differential) input channels (with H & V sync embedded in
their common-modes) which connect via an internal
crosspoint mux to 5 (RGB + HV) single-ended output
channels. The 5th output group has enhanced features that
include: a pixel-by-pixel overlay mux and auto-calibrated
offset cancellation. All analog and digital outputs have a
high-impedance state, allowing several EL4544 to share the
same output connections.
16 RGB Differential Video Inputs with Encoded
Sync
For each of the 16 RGB groups of differential video inputs,
horizontal and vertical sync are encoded as a combination of
the common modes for each RGB group. Each of these
differential input pins has a single-ended signal range that
spans the entire 0V to 5V supply range. The embedded sync
signals are provided by the EL4543 Triple Differential
Twisted Pair Driver IC.
Overall Analog Signal Flow
There are four independent internal input multiplexors
represented as Ai, Bi, Ci, and Di in the block diagram and
serial bus interface control table (hexa-decimal addresses
0h, 1h, 2h, 3h). These muxes convert the selected RGB
differential input signal to single-ended RGB and extract H &
V sync. The five output crosspoint multiplexors represented
as Ax, Bx, Cx, Dx, and Sx, can independently select from
the four internal (RGBHV) signal groups Ai, Bi, Ci, and Di by
programming the hexadecimal serial bus addresses 8h, 9h,
Ah, Bh, and Ch. There are five RGBHV single-ended output
11
signal groups labelled A, B, C, D, and S which buffer signals
from the corresponding crosspoint outputs Ax, Bx, Cx, Dx,
and Sx. Each of these output groups has an independent
reference pin (RefA, RefB, RefC, RefD, and RefS) that
allows the user to program the reference level that
corresponds to a zero voltage differential input.
Analog and Digital Video Outputs
All analog outputs (A, B, C, D, and S) have a signal range
from 0V to 3.5V and are capable of driving the 150Ω load
presented by a terminated video cable. The H & V sync
outputs and all other digital I/O are compatible with 3V
operation; their signal swings are determined by connecting
the digital supply pin Vdp to a 3V source.
How to Configure the Analog Video Outputs to
Swing to 0V
The RGB analog outputs of the A, B, C, D, and S output
groups are all capable of a range of swing that reaches the
negative supply pin Vm = 0V. However, since the EL4544
has no internal supply connections, its single-ended outputs
run out of bandwidth, slew rate, and linearity below 0.5V. If
accurate wide band performance below 0.5V is required,
add external pulldown resistors between each analog output
and an external -5V supply.
This will keep the output stage biased. Values between 3kΩ
to 1kΩ are suggested. The lower the selected resistance, the
wider the bandwidth will be at 0V, but lower external
resistance will increase overall IC power dissipation
significantly since these resistors are loading their respective
output stages.

Operating the S Output Group Near Ground
The S output group has one additional consideration to
cover configurations where the output signals and the output
reference pin RefS are operated below 0.5V. Under these
circumstances, each of the three auto-zero monitoring pins
RAZ, GAZ, and BAZ, require an external 10kΩ resistor
connecting each to an external -5V supply. This keeps the
auto-zero circuitry active all the way down to ground.
Switchable Video Output Group Has Overlay
Capability and Offset Cancellation
The S group of output signals have an overlay switch that
allows single-ended inputs ROL, GOL, and BOL, to be
inserted on a pixel-by-pixel basis. The pin RefOL allows the
user to program the overlay input (reference) level that
produces an output voltage equal to the output reference pin
RefS. The S group of video outputs has an Auto-Calibration
mode which can null out offsets through the entire selected
signal path from its inputs to its outputs. (It is usually
triggered during the front or back porch of video when the
input signal is known to be at Black Level.)
Transparent vs Opaque Overlays
The overlay input for the S group is directly selected by the
Overlay control pin Ovl. Two types of overlay are possible.
The simplest overlay alternates between the dedicated
overlay input and the "thru" input (that has been selected by
the cross-point multiplexor). The "transparent" overlay mode
is different from the standard overlay mode in that it presents
the average of the overlay input and the "thru" input signal
during overlay. The transparent mode is selected either by
driving the Trans pin low or by programming bit D2 in
Register D of the Serial Interface to a logical "1".
Serial Interface Control of the Auto-Calibration
Feature
Programming bit D0 in Register D of the Serial Interface to a
logical "1" activates the "Auto-Calibration" Mode which
allows offsets from all inputs to the S group to be nulled-out
via a calibration sequence. The programming Bit D1 in
Register D of the Serial Interface is called Toggle. It allows
for two modes of auto-calibration. If Toggle is programmed to
a logical "0", Toggle mode is inactive. The auto-calibration
cycle must be executed separately for both input groups (the
overlay and the through signal groups).
What Happens During an Auto-Calibration Cycle
The auto-calibration (auto-zero) feature only applies to the S
group of outputs. An auto-calibration cycle works as follows
for either the overlay input or a selected "thru" input from the
cross-point: During any time when the input signal is known
to be at a "zero-level" ("zero-level" is a differential-zero input
signal for any of the 16-RGB differential inputs or when the
pin voltages to the overlay inputs ROL = GOL = BOL are all
equal to RefOL), setting the calibration pin Cal to a logical
"LO" activates the sample phase of auto-calibration and
forces the analog outputs to be equal to the reference
12
voltage of pin RefS. When pin Cal is brought back to a
logical "HI", the calibration is held until the next calibration
cycle, and the S group will accurately convey the video
signal with low offsets. A small hold-step (≤1mV) can be
observed whenever the calibration signal is released. Each
subsequent activation of the sampling phase refreshes the
calibration. If Toggle mode is inactive, the user must
individually calibrate both the overlay and non-overlay
("thru") output states by selecting the between them and
running calibration separately for both of the input
conditions. Changing the input selections by reprogramming the crosspoint to another input path or by
changing the overlay mode (transparent/opaque), requires
refreshing of this calibration. Ideally, the calibration is
refreshed once per line of video. The drift during a line of
video is negligible. (On the lab bench, using manual control,
a drift rate on the order of 0.2mV/sec will be observed.)
Toggle Mode Automatically Supervises the
Calibration Cycles
The purpose of Toggle mode is to automatically alternate
between calibrating the overlay and calibrating the "thru"
paths to the S Output group. The Toggle mode assumes that
overlays never exist outside of the video screen (that overlay
only occurs during active video). When using the Toggle
mode, the overlay function must be inactive during and
around sync. When Toggle mode is active and the overlay
switch is disabled, the EL4544 will automatically toggle
between "thru" and overlay selections for alternate pulsing of
the calibrate signal. Thus, every alternate calibrate pulse will
override the selected "thru" state of the overlay switch,
perform an auto-zero function, and then return the overlay
switch back to its original "thru" position. This is true if the
programming Bit D1 in Register D (labelled Toggle) of the
Serial Interface is programmed to a logical "1". Whenever
the IC is reset by momentarily pulling the Reset pin "LO", the
Toggle mode is initialized such that the first path calibrated is
the overlay path. The next calibration cycle will automatically
calibrate the "thru" path.
Incorrect Use of the Toggle Mode
If the overlay is selected during auto-calibration with the
Toggle mode active, the "thru" path will never be calibrated.
Only the overlay gets calibrated in this configuration.
Integrated Die Temperature Probes
Thermal monitoring pins TMon1 and TMon2 allow the user
to effectively monitor the die temperature by lightly forward
biasing internal diodes and measuring their forward voltage
drop. Since these diodes will have a -2mV/°C tempco, they
can be an effective means of evaluating the thermal
management of the user's application board and may even
be configured to provide a thermally-triggered shutdown. To
implement this feature, pull either of these pins below the
negative supply with precision current source of 10µA to
100µA. Measure the forward drop at room temperature with

the chip disabled. During operation, every 1°C rise in
temperature will produce a 2mV drop in the forward voltage.
inputs. The EL4543 provides this encoding as shown in
Table 1.
Some Tips on the Most Effective Programming of
the EL4544
The video inputs present a 1.75kΩ single ended and a 3.5kΩ
differential load to an incoming video signal. Since this load
is in parallel with the external termination network, it has a
consistent effect on the system gain. To maintain this
consistency, it is inadvisable to program more than one input
stage (Ai, Bi, Ci, or Di) to "look" at any given video input
(RGB0, RGB1, …, RGBF) since each activated input stage
puts an additional parallel load of 3.5kΩ onto the selected
input. When programming the serial interface this is simply
expressed as: Avoid programming the same value into the
four data registers (for Ai, Bi, Ci, & Di) at hex addresses 0H,
1H, 2H, & 3H. They should all have unique values. This is
important since if any inputs are selected more than once,
their gains will mismatch an input that has only been
selected once.
If one wishes to broadcast the same signal to multiple output
channels, this can easily be accomplished without violating
the advice of the previous paragraph. Select the input that
needs to be broadcast using any one of the four input
selectors (Ai, Bi, Ci, or Di), then have any of up to five of the
output stages (Ax, Bx, Cx, Dx, Sx) point to the input stage
that is pointing to the desired input signal. These are
selected using hex 8H, 9H, AH, BH, & CH. Now the EL4544
is broadcasting a single video source to multiple outputs
without excessively loading down the selected input.

The EL4544 decodes the common-mode signals into H & V
syncs as follows: Horizontal Sync is TRUE when the
Blue_Common_Mode voltage is greater than the
Average_of_Red_and_Green_Common_Mode voltage.
Vertical Sync is TRUE when the
Average_of_Red_and_Blue_Common_Mode voltage is
greater than the Green_Common_Mode voltage. The sync
comparators have an internal symmetrical hysteresis that is
less than ±50mV. Timing skews between comparators under
all conditions are less than one pixel. The comparators have
an input common mode that allows for operation at least 1V
from the negative supplies and at least 1.5V from the
positive supplies.
