The MAX7472/MAX7473 limit the input bandwidth for
anti-aliasing and out-of-band noise reduction prior to
digital conversion by an ADC or video decoder. The
frequency response of the MAX7472/MAX7473 can be
continuously varied in 256 linear steps from below SD
response to beyond HD response through an I2C interface. The adjustable cutoff frequency allows filter optimization for sampling rate and noise reduction. The
MAX7472/MAX7473 also include 3:1 multiplexers for
selection of three complete sets of video inputs through
the I2C interface.
The MAX7472/MAX7473 drive a 2VP-P video signal into
a standard 150Ω load. The inputs are AC-coupled and
the outputs can be either DC- or AC-coupled. The
MAX7472 has a gain of 0dB and the MAX7473 has a
gain of +6dB. Both devices are available in a 28-pin
TQFN package and are fully specified over the uppercommercial (0°C to +85°C) temperature range.

Detailed Description
The MAX7472/MAX7473 are complete video anti-aliasing solutions ideal for fixed-pixel HDTV display technologies such as plasma and LCD, which digitize the
input video signal and then scale the resolution to
match the native pixel format of the display. With a software-selectable corner frequency ranging from 5MHz
to 34MHz, the MAX7472/MAX7473 support both SD
and HD video signals including 1080i, 720p, 720i,
480p, and 480i. Higher bandwidth computer resolution
signals are also supported.
Integrated lowpass filters limit the analog video input
bandwidth for anti-aliasing and out-of-band noise
reduction prior to sampling by an ADC or video
decoder. By allowing the corner frequency to be adjusted from below SD resolution to beyond HD resolutions
in 256 steps, the filter’s corner frequency can be optimized dynamically for a specific input video signal and
the sampling frequency of the ADC or video decoder.
The MAX7472/MAX7473 provide a filter-bypass mode
to support applications requiring a passband greater
than 34MHz.
An I2C interface allows a microcontroller to configure
the MAX7472/MAX7473s’ performance and functionality
including the mux, the clamp voltage, the filter’s corner
frequency, the sync source (internal/external), and filter
bypassing.
The Typical Operating Circuit shows the block diagram
and typical external connections of the MAX7472/
MAX7473.
Sync Detector and Clamp Levels
The MAX7472/MAX7473 use a video clamp circuit to
establish a DC offset for the incoming video signal after
the AC-coupling capacitor. This video clamp sets the DC
bias level of the circuit at the optimum operating point.
The MAX7472/MAX7473 support both internal and
external sync detection. Selection of internal vs. external detection is achieved by programming the command byte (see Table 3). After extracting the sync
information from channel 1 or an external sync (SYNCA,
SYNCB, or SYNCC), the MAX7472/MAX7473 clamp the
video signal during the sync tip portion of the video.
Select one of two possible clamp levels according to
the input signal format. Use the low level when the input
signal contains sync information such as Y (luma) or
CVBS signals. Use the high level for bipolar signals
such as C (chroma) or PB/PR. See Table 1.

MAX7472/MAX7473
Pin Description (continued)
MAX7472/MAX7473
HDTV Anti-Aliasing Filters with Triple-Input Mux
Component/Composite Selection
The MAX7472/MAX7473 accept component or composite inputs. The sync detection path provides an
additional selectable color burst filter to improve sync
detection.
External Sync Detection
When filtering a video signal without embedded sync
information, such as computer formats (RGBHV) with
separate sync signals, use the external sync mode (see
Table 3) and apply the horizontal sync source to the
SYNCA, SYNCB, or SYNCC pin. The sync detector
determines when the clamp circuit is turned on.
The MAX7472/MAX7473 can detect positive or negative polarity external syncs with TTL logic levels. Use
the I2C interface to program the polarity of the external
sync signal.
Filter
The internal video filter delivers an optimized response
with a steep transition band to achieve a wide passband along with excellent stopband rejection. In addition, the filter is optimized to provide an excellent timedomain response with low overshoot.
Setting the Filter Frequency
The frequency response (-3dB cutoff frequency) of the
filter in the MAX7472/MAX7473 can be varied from less
than the SD passband to beyond the HD passband in
256 linear steps through the I2C interface. Use the command byte to write to the Frequency register followed
by the 8-bit data word that corresponds to the desired
frequency. See Table 6.
The Frequency register sets the -3dB point. Set this frequency accordingly to achieve the desired flat passband response.
Optimizing the Frequency Response
Select the frequency according to the resolution of the
video-signal format. High-definition signals require
higher bandwidth and standard-definition signals
require less bandwidth. The actual bandwidth contained in the video signal is a function of the visual resolution of the signal. This bandwidth is typically less
than what is indicated by the format resolution (1080i,
720p, 480p, and 480i). For more information on this
topic, see Application Note 750: Bandwidth vs. Video
Resolution on the Maxim website (www.maxim-ic.com).
See Table 6.
The frequency response can be optimized to improve
the overall performance. There are a number of consid-
8
erations, one of the most important being the sampling
rate of the subsequent ADC or video decoder in the
system. In oversampled systems, the sampling rate is
significantly more than the desired passband response.
The extra frequency span between the passband and
the sampling rate contains noise that can be eliminated
by setting the corner frequency of the filter to just pass
the desired bandwidth. This results in a higher signalto-noise ratio of the overall system.
Filter Bypass
The MAX7472/MAX7473 offer selectable filter bypassing that allows the input video signals to bypass the
internal filters reaching the output buffers unfiltered.
The filter-bypass mode is enabled/disabled through the
command byte (see Table 3).
Output Buffer
Each output buffer can drive a 2VP-P signal into a 150Ω
video load. The MAX7472/MAX7473 can drive a DC- or
AC-coupled load. The output DC level is controlled to
limit the DC voltage on the cable so that the blanking
level of the video signal is always less than 1V, meeting
the digital TV specification. As a result, output AC-coupling capacitors can be eliminated when driving a
cable, thus eliminating the normal adverse effects
caused by these capacitors such as line- and field-time
distortion, otherwise known as droop. See the Output
Considerations section for more information.
Gain Options
The MAX7472 features an overall gain of 0dB, while the
MAX7473 features an overall gain of +6dB. Use the
+6dB option (MAX7473) when driving a back-matched
cable. Use the 0dB option (MAX7472) when driving an
ADC or video decoder with an input range the same as
the input to the MAX7472. To add flexibility, the
MAX7472 accepts input signals up to 2VP-P, twice the
standard video-signal range.
Output Clamp Level
The MAX7472/MAX7473 output can be DC- or AC-coupled. The nominal output clamp level in the DC-coupled case depends on the clamp voltage setting and
can be determined according to Table 2.

Multiplexers
The MAX7472/MAX7473 provide four 3:1 multiplexers
programmable through the I2C interface to select which
of three separate channels (channels A, B, C) is to be
connected to each video input. The fourth multiplexer is
used in conjunction with external sync detection and
determines which channel’s external sync is to be connected to the external sync input.
See Table 3 and the Serial Interface section for more
information on how to select a particular channel. After
selecting a channel with a command byte, bits CS7
and CS6 of the Channel Selection register reflect the
channel setting (Table 7).
Power-Down Mode
The MAX7472/MAX7473 include a power-down mode
that reduces the supply current from 180mA (typ) to
1mA (typ) by powering down the analog circuitry. The
I 2C interface remains active allowing the device to
return to full-power operation. The clamp settling time
(see the Electrical Characteristics table) limits the
wake-up time of the MAX7472/MAX7473. After exiting
the power-down mode, the MAX7472/MAX7473 resume
normal operation using the settings stored prior to
power-down. The command byte controls the powerdown and wake-up modes (see Table 3). A software
reset sets the Control/Status register to its default conditions. The Frequency register and the Channel
Selection register are not affected.
Power-On Reset (POR)
The MAX7472/MAX7473 include a power-on reset
(POR) circuit that resets the internal registers and I2C
interface to their default condition (see Tables 4–7).
Serial Interface
The MAX7472/MAX7473 feature an I 2C-compatible,
2-wire serial interface consisting of a bidirectional serial
data line (SDA) and a serial clock line (SCL). SDA and
SCL facilitate bidirectional communication between the
MAX7472/MAX7473 and the master at rates up to 400kHz.
Once a command byte is written to the MAX7472/
MAX7473, the command interpreter changes the
Control/Status register and the Channel Selection register accordingly. See the Control/Status Register and
Channel-Selection Register sections for more information. The command interpreter also controls access to
the Frequency register (see the Command Byte (Write
Cycle) section).
The MAX7472/MAX7473 are transmit/receive slave-only
devices, relying upon a master to generate a clock signal. The master (typically a microcontroller) initiates
data transfer on the bus and generates SCL.
A master device communicates to the MAX7472/
MAX7473 by transmitting the proper address (see the
Slave Address section) followed by a command and/or
data words. Each transmit sequence is framed with a
START (S) or REPEATED START (Sr) condition and a
STOP (P) condition.
The SDA driver is an open-drain output, requiring a
pullup resistor (2.4kΩ or greater) to generate a logichigh voltage. Optional resistors (24Ω) in series with
SDA and SCL protect the device inputs from high-voltage spikes on the bus lines. Series resistors also minimize crosstalk and undershoot of the bus signals.
Bit Transfer
Each SCL rising edge transfers 1 data bit. Nine clock
cycles are required to transfer the data into or out of the
MAX7472/MAX7473. The data on SDA must remain stable
during the high period of the SCL clock pulse. Changes in
SDA while SCL is high are read as control signals (see the
START and STOP Conditions section). When the serial
interface is inactive, SDA and SCL idle high.
START and STOP Conditions
A master device initiates communication by issuing a
START condition (S), a high-to-low transition on SDA with
SCL high (Figure 2). The master terminates transmission
by a STOP condition (P) (see the Acknowledge Bit (ACK)
and Not-Acknowledge Bit (NACK) section). A STOP condition is a low-to-high transition on SDA while SCL is high
(Figure 2). The STOP condition frees the bus. If a repeated START condition (Sr) is generated instead of a STOP
condition, the bus remains active. When a STOP condition or incorrect address is detected, the MAX7472/
MAX7473 then ignore all communication on the I2C bus
until the next START or REPEATED START condition,
minimizing digital noise and feedthrough.
_______________________________________________________________________________________

MAX7472/MAX7473
As shown in the Sync Detector and Clamp Levels section, the low clamp level is used for signals with sync
information and determines the voltage level of the
sync tip, while the high clamp level is used for signals
without sync information and sets the blanking level.
The absolute voltage level of the output signal is relative to the output clamp level. A video signal containing
sync information (i.e., CVBS or Y) is unipolar above the
clamp level and conversely, a video signal without sync
(i.e., PB, PR, or C) is bipolar around the clamp level.
MAX7472/MAX7473
HDTV Anti-Aliasing Filters with Triple-Input Mux
Early STOP Conditions
The MAX7472/MAX7473 recognize a STOP condition at
any point during transmission except when a STOP
condition occurs in the same high pulse as a START
condition (Figure 3). This condition is not a legal I2C
format; at least one clock pulse must separate any
START and STOP conditions. The MAX7472/MAX7473
discard any data received during a data transfer aborted by an early STOP condition.
REPEATED START (Sr) Conditions
An Sr condition is used to indicate a change in direction of data flow (see the Read Cycle section). Sr can
also be used when the bus master is writing to several
I2C devices and does not want to relinquish control of
the bus. The MAX7472/MAX7473 serial interface supports continuous write operations with (or without) an Sr
condition separating them.
Acknowledge Bit (ACK) and
Not-Acknowledge Bit (NACK)
Successful data transfers are acknowledged with an
acknowledge bit (ACK) or a not-acknowledge bit
(NACK). Both the master and the MAX7472/MAX7473
(slave) generate acknowledge bits. To generate an
acknowledge, the receiving device must pull SDA low
before the rising edge of the acknowledge-related clock
pulse (ninth pulse) and keep it low during the high period
of the clock pulse (Figure 4). To generate a not acknowledge, the receiver allows SDA to be pulled high before
the rising edge of the acknowledge-related clock pulse
(ninth pulse) and leaves it high during the high period of
the clock pulse. Monitoring the acknowledge bits allows
for detection of unsuccessful data transfers. An unsuccessful data transfer happens if a receiving device is
busy or if a system fault has occurred. In the event of an
unsuccessful data transfer, the master should reattempt
communication at a later time.
The MAX7472/MAX7473 generate an acknowledge bit
when receiving an address or data by pulling SDA low
during the ninth clock pulse. When transmitting data
during a read, the MAX7472/MAX7473 do not drive
SDA during the ninth clock pulse (i.e., the external
pullups define the bus as a logic high) so that the
receiver of the data can pull SDA low to acknowledge
receipt of data.
Slave Address
A bus master initiates communication with a slave device
by issuing a START condition followed by the 7-bit slave
address (Figure 5). When idle, the MAX7472/MAX7473

The serial interface compares each address bit by bit,
allowing the interface to power down and disconnect
from SCL immediately if an incorrect address is detected. After recognizing a START condition followed by the
correct address, the MAX7472/MAX7473 are ready to
accept or send data. The least significant bit (LSB) of the
address byte (R/W) determines whether the master is

bits. Addresses A1 and A0 can also be driven dynamically if required, but the values must be stable when they
are expected in the address sequence.

Figure 8. Basic Read Sequence
Read Cycle
In read mode (R/W = 1), the MAX7472/MAX7473 write
the contents of the Status, Channel Selection, or
Frequency register to the bus. When the command
byte indicates a read operation of either the Status or
the Frequency register, the serial interface expects an
Sr condition to follow the command byte. After sending
an Sr, the master sends the MAX7472/MAX7473 slave
address byte followed by the R/W bit (set to 1 to indicate a read). The slave device (MAX7472/MAX7473)
generates an ACK for the second address word and
immediately after the ACK clock pulse, the direction of
data flow reverses. The slave (MAX7472/MAX7473)
then transmits 1 byte of data containing the value of the
register that was selected in the command byte. Figure
8 shows a basic read sequence.
Note: To read the contents of the Status, Channel
Selection, or Frequency register, the master must first
write a command byte, requesting to read the Status,
Channel Selection, or Frequency register.

individual bits of the Channel Selection register are
summarized in Table 7. The power-on default selects
channel A.
I2C Compatibility
The MAX7472/MAX7473 are compatible with existing
I2C systems supporting standard I2C 8-bit communications. The general call address is ignored, and CBUS
formats are not supported. The devices’ address is
compatible with 7-bit I 2C addressing protocol only.
Ten-bit address formats are not supported.
Applications Information
Input Considerations
Use 0.1µF ceramic capacitors to AC-couple the inputs.
The input cannot be DC-coupled. The internal clamp
circuit stores a DC voltage across the input capacitors
to obtain the appropriate output DC voltage level.
Increasing the value of these capacitors to improve
line-time distortion is not necessary due to the extremely low input leakage current yielding a very low line-time
distortion performance.
The MAX7472/MAX7473 provide a high input impedance to allow a nonzero source impedance to be used
such as when the input is connected directly to a back-
matched video cable, ensuring the external resistance
determines the termination impedance.
Output Considerations
The MAX7472/MAX7473 outputs can be DC- or ACcoupled. The MAX7473, with +6dB gain, is typically
connected to a 75Ω series back-match resistor followed by the video cable. Because of the inherent
divide-by-two of this configuration, the blanking level of
the video signal is always less than 1V, which complies
with digital TV requirements.
The MAX7472, with 0dB gain, is typically connected to
an ADC or video decoder. This can be a DC or AC connection. If a DC connection is used, ensure that the DC
input requirements of the ADC or video decoder are
compatible.
When using an AC connection, choose an AC-coupling
capacitor value that ensures that the lowest frequency
content in the video signal is passed and the line-time
distortion is kept within desired limits. The selection of
this value is a function of the input impedance and more
importantly, the input leakage of the circuit being driven.
Use a video clamp to reestablish the DC level if not
already included in the subsequent circuit.
The outputs of the MAX7472/MAX7473 are fully protected against short-circuit conditions either to ground or to
the positive supply of the device.

Power-Supply Bypassing and
Layout Considerations
The MAX7472/MAX7473 operate from a single +5V
analog supply and +3.3V digital supply. Bypass each
AVDD to AGND with a 0.1µF capacitor with an additional 1µF capacitor in parallel for low-frequency decoupling. Determine the proper power-supply bypassing
necessary by taking into account the desired disturbance level tolerable on the output, the power-supply
rejection of the MAX7472/MAX7473, and the amplitude
and frequency of the disturbance signals present in the
vicinity of the MAX7472/MAX7473. Use an extensive
ground plane to ensure optimum performance. The
three AVDD inputs (pins 18, 20, and 22) that supply the
individual channels can be connected together and
bypassed as one provided the components are close
to the pins. Bypass DVDD to DGND with a 0.1µF capacitor. Connect all ground pins to a low-impedance
ground plane as close to the device as possible.
Place the input termination resistors as close to the
device as possible. Alternatively, the terminations can
be placed further from the device if the PC board
traces are designed to be a controlled impedance of
75Ω. Minimize parasitic capacitance as much as possible to avoid performance degradation in the upper frequency range possible with the MAX7472/MAX7473.
Refer to the MAX7472/MAX7473 evaluation kit for a
proven PC board layout.
16
Exposed Pad and Heat Dissipation
The MAX7472/MAX7473 TQFN package provides an
exposed pad on the bottom side of the package. This
pad is electrically connected to AGND and must be
soldered to the ground plane for proper thermal conductivity. Do not route any PC board traces under the
package.
The MAX7472/MAX7473 typically dissipate 900mW of
power; therefore, pay attention to heat dispersion. Use
at least a two-layer board with a good ground plane. To
maximize heat dispersion, place copper directly under
the MAX7472/MAX7473 package to match the outline
of the plastic encapsulated area. Repeat the same with
the bottom ground plane layer and place as many vias
as possible connecting the top and bottom layers to
thermally connect to the ground plane.
Maxim has evaluated a four-layer board using FR-4
material and 1oz copper with equal areas of metal on
the top and bottom side coincident with the plastic
encapsulated areas of the package. The two middle
layers are used as power and ground planes. The
board has 21, 15-mil, plated-through via holes between
top, bottom, and ground plane layers. Thermocouple
measurements confirm device temperatures to be safely within maximum limits.
