General Description The EL44XX family of video mux-amps are composed of two or four input stages whose inputs are selected and control an output stage. One of the inputs is active at a time and the circuit behaves as a traditional voltage-feedback op-amp for that input, rejecting signals present at the unselected inputs. Selection is controlled by one or two logic inputs. The EL4421, EL4441, and EL4443 are compensated for unity-gain stability, while the EL4422, EL4442, and EL4444 are compensated for a fedback gain of a 2, ideal for driving back-terminated cables or maintaining bandwidth at higher fed-back gains. The EL4421, EL4422, EL4441, and EL4442 have all inputs wired in parallel, allowing a single feedback network to set the gain of all inputs. These devices are wired for positive gains.

The simplified input circuitry is shown below: Switching Characteristics The logic inputs work with standard TTL levels of 0.8V or less for a logic 0 and 2.0V or more for a logic 1, making them compatible for TTL and 4421 35 Figure 1. Simplified Logic Input Circuitry The ground pin draws a maximum DC current of 6 mA, and may be biased anywhere between (V ) a 2.5V and (V a ) 3.5V. The logic inputs may range from (V ) a 2.5V to V a , and are additionally required to be no more negative than V(Gnd pin) 4V and no more positive than V(Gnd pin) a 6V. For example, within these constraints, we can power the EL44XX’s from a 5V and a 12V without a negative supply by using these connections: 4421 36 Figure 2. Using the EL44XX Mux Amps with a 5V and a 12V Supplies 10 EL4421C/22C/41C/42C/43C/44C Multiplexed-Input Video Amplifiers Applications Information Ð Contd. is again g 3V and the output swing is g 6V. The EL4443 or EL4444 can be wired for inverting gain with even more amplitude possible. The logic input(s) and ground pin are shifted 2.5V above system ground to correctly bias the mux-amp. Of course, all the signal inputs and output will have to be shifted 2.5V above system ground to ensure proper signal path biasing. The output and positive inputs respond to overloading amplitudes correctly; that is, they simply clamp and remain monotonic with increasing a input overdrive. A condition exists, however, where the input of an active stage is overdriven by large outputs. This occurs mainly in unitygain connections, and only happens for negative inputs. The overloaded input cannot control the feedback loop correctly and the output can become non-monotonic. A typical scenario has the circuit running on g 5V supplies, connected for unity gain, and the input is the maximum g 3V. Negative input extremes can cause the output to jump from 3V to around 2.3V. This will never happen if the input is restricted to g 2.5V, which is the guaranteed maximum input compliance with g 5V supplies, and is not a problem with greater supply voltages. Connecting the feedback network with a divider will prevent the overloaded output voltage from being large enough to overload the input and monotonic A final caution: the ground pin is also connected to the IC’s substrate and frequency compensation components. The ground pin must be returned to system ground by a short wire or nearby bypass capacitor. In figure 2, the 22 KX resistors also serve to isolate the bypassed ground pin from the a 5V supply noise. Signal Amplitudes Signal input and output voltages must be between (V ) a 2.5V and (V a ) 2.5V to ensure linearity. Additionally, the differential voltage on any input stage must be limited to g 6V to prevent damage. In unity-gain connections, any input could have g 3V applied and the output would be at g 3V, putting us at our 6V differential limit. Higher-gain circuit applications divide the output voltage and allow for larger outputs. For instance, at a gain of a 2 the maximum input 11 EL4421C/22C/41C/42C/43C/44C Multiplexed-Input Video Amplifiers Applications Information Ð Contd. behavior is assured. In any event, keeping signals within guaranteed compliance limits will assure freedom from overload problems. The maximum dissipation a package support is PD, max e (TD, max-TA, max)/RTH Where TD, max is the maximum die temperature, 150§ C for reliability, less to retain optimum electrical performance TA, max is the ambient temperature, 70§ for commercial and 85§ C for industrial range RTH is the thermal resistance of the mounted package, obtained from data sheet dissipation curves The input and output ranges are substantially constant with temperature. Power Supplies The mux-amps work well on any supplies from g 3V to g 15V. The supplies may be of different voltages as long as the requirements of the Gnd pin are observed (see the Switching Characteristics section for a discussion). The supplies should be bypassed close to the device with short leads. 4.7 mF tantalum capacitors are very good, and no smaller bypasses need be placed in parallel. Capacitors as small as 0.01 mF can be used if small load currents flow. The most difficult case is the SO-8 package. With a maximum die temperature of 150§ C and a maximum ambient temperature of 85§ , the 65§ temperature rise and package thermal resistance of 170§ /W gives a maximum dissipation of 382 mW. This allows a maximum supply voltage of g 9.2V for the EL4422 operated in our example. If the % ), EL4421 were driving a light load (RPAR it could operate on g 15V supplies at a 70§ maximum ambient. Single-polarity supplies, such as a 12V with a 5V can be used as described in the Switching Characteristics section. The inputs and outputs will have to have their levels shifted above ground to accommodate the lack of negative supply. x The EL4441 through EL4444 can operate on g 12V supplies in the SO package, and all parts can be powered by g 15V supplies in DIP packages. The dissipation of the mux-amps increases with power supply voltage, and this must be compatible with the package chosen. This is a close estimate for the dissipation of a circuit: Output Loading The output stage of the mux-amp is very powerful, and can source 80 mA and sink 120 mA. Of course, this is too much current to sustain and the part will eventually be destroyed by excessive dissipation or by metal traces on the die opening. The metal traces are completely reliable while delivering the 30 mA continuous output given in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table in this data sheet, or higher purely transient currents. PD e 2VS c Is,max a (VS – VO) c VO/RPAR Where Is, max is the maximum supply current VS is the g supply voltage (assumed equal) VO if the output voltage RPAR is the parallel of all resistors loading the output Gain or gain accuracy degrades only 10% from no load to 100X load. Heavy resistive loading will degrade frequency response and video distortion only a bit, becoming noticeably worse for loads k 100X. For instance, the EL4422 draws a maximum of 14 mA and we might require a 2V peak output into 150X and a 270X a 270X feedback divider. The RPAR is 117X. The dissipation with g 5V supplies is 191 mW. The maximum Supply voltage that the device can run on for a given PD and the other parameter is VS, max e (PD a VO2/RPAR)/2Is a VO/RPAR) 12 TD is 0 5in EL4421C/22C/41C/42C/43C/44C Multiplexed-Input Video Amplifiers Applications Information Ð Contd. Capacitive loads will cause peaking in the frequency response. If capacitive loads must be driven, a small-valued series resistor can be used to isolate it. 12X to 51X should suffice. A 22X series resistor will limit peaking to 2.5 dB with even a 220 pF load. The other major concern about the divider concerns unselected-channel crosstalk. The differential input impedance of each input stage is around 200 KX. The unselected input’s signal sources thus drive current through that input impedance into the feedback divider, inducing an unwanted output. The gain from unselected input to output, the crosstalk attenuation, if RF/ RIN. In unity-gain connection the feedback resistor is 0X and very little crosstalk is induced. For a gain of a 2, the crosstalk is about 60 dB. Input Connections The input transistors can be driven from resistive and capacitive sources but are capable of oscillation when presented with an inductive input. It takes about 80 nH of series inductance to make the inputs actually oscillate, equivalent to four inches of unshielded wiring or about 6× of unterminated input transmission line. The oscillation has a characteristic frequency of 500 MHz. Feedthrough Attenuation The channels have different crosstalk levels with different inputs. Here is the typical attenuation for all combinations of inputs for the mux-amps at 3.58 MHz: Often simply placing one’s finger (via a metal probe) or an oscilloscope probe on the input will kill the oscillation. Normal high-frequency construction obviates any such problems, where the input source is reasonably close to the mux-amp input. If this is not possible, one can insert series resistors of around 51X to de-Q the inputs. Feedthrough of EL4441 and EL4443 at 3.58 MHz 00 Select Inputs, A1A0 Feedback Connections A feedback divider is used to increase circuit gain, and some precautions should be observed. The first is that parasitic capacitance at the input will add phase lag to the feedback path and increase frequency response peaking or even cause oscillation. One solution is to choose feedback resistors whose parallel value is low. The pole frequency of the feedback network should be maintained above at least 200 MHz. For a 3 pF parasitic, this requires that the feedback divider have less than 265X impedance, equivalent to two 510X resistors when a gain of a 2 is desired. Alternatively, a small capacitor across RF can be used to create more of a frequency-compensated divider. The value of the capacitor should match the parasitic capacitance at the input. It is also practical to place small capacitors across both the feedback resistors (whose values maintain the desired gain) to swamp out parasitics. For instance, two 10 pF capacitors across equal divider resistors will dominate parasitic effects and allow a higher divider resistance.

A peak amplitude of only about 90 mV occurs, and the transient settles out in 20 ns. The glitch does not change amplitude with different gain settings. With the four-input multiplexers, when two logic inputs are simultaneously changed, the glitch amplitude doubles. The increase can be a avoided by keeping transitions at least 6 ns apart. This can be accomplished by inserting one gate delay in one of the two logic inputs when they are truly synchronous. 13 TD is 0 5in Feedthrough of EL4421 at 3.58 MHz 14 BLANK 15 BLANK EL4421C/22C/41C/42C/43C/44C EL4421C/22C/41C/42C/43C/44C Multiplexed-Input Video Amplifiers General Disclaimer Specifications contained in this data sheet are in effect as of the publication date shown.
