FEATURES
DESCRIPTIO
■
The LT®6555 is a high speed triple 2:1 video multiplexer
with an internally fixed gain of 2. The individual amplifiers
are optimized for performance with a double terminated
75Ω video load and feature a –3dB 2VP-P bandwidth of
450MHz, making them ideal for driving very high resolution video signals. Separate power supply pins for each
amplifier boost channel separation to 72dB, allowing the
LT6555 to excel in many high speed applications.

supply operation, it can also be operated with a single
supply as low as 4.5V. Using dual 5V supplies, each
amplifier draws only 9mA. When disabled, the amplifiers
draw less than 500µA and the outputs become high
impedance.

Note 1: Absolute Maximum Ratings are those values beyond which the life
of a device may be impaired.
Note 2: This parameter is guaranteed to meet specified performance
through design and characterization. It is not production tested.
Note 3: As long as output current and junction temperature are kept below
the Absolute Maximum Ratings, no damage to the part will occur.
Depending on the supply voltage, a heat sink may be required.
Note 4: The LT6555C is guaranteed functional over the operating
temperature range of –40°C to 85°C.
Note 5: The LT6555C is guaranteed to meet specified performance from
0°C to 70°C. The LT6555C is designed, characterized and expected to
meet specified performance from –40°C and 85°C but is not tested or QA
sampled at these temperatures. The LT6555I is guaranteed to meet
specified performance from –40°C to 85°C.
Note 6: In order to follow the constraints for 4.5V operation for PSRR
and IPSRR testing at ±2.25V, the DGND pin is set to V–, the EN pin is set
to V– + 0.4V, and the SEL pin is set to either V– + 0.4V or V– + 4V. At ±6V
and all other cases, DGND is set to ground and the EN and SEL pins are
referenced from it.
Note 7: The VREF pin is set to 1V when testing positive swing and –1V
when testing negative swing to ensure that the internal input clamps do
not limit the output swing.
Note 8: Slew rate is 100% production tested using both inputs of
channel 2. Slew rates of channels 1 and 3 are guaranteed through
design and characterization.
Note 9: Full power bandwidth is calculated from the slew rate:
FPBW = SR/(π • VP-P)
Note 10: Differential gain and phase are measured using a Tektronix
TSG120YC/NTSC signal generator and a Tektronix 1780R video
measurement set. The resolution of this equipment is better than 0.05%
and 0.05°. Nine identical amplifier stages were cascaded giving an
effective resolution of better than 0.0056% and 0.0056%.

Power Supplies
The LT6555 is optimized for ±5V supplies but can be
operated on as little as ±2.25V or a single 4.5V supply and
as much as ±6V or a single 12V supply. Internally, each
supply is independent to improve channel isolation. Do
not leave any supply pins disconnected or the part may
not function correctly!
Enable/Shutdown
The LT6555 has a shutdown mode controlled by the EN
pin and referenced to the DGND pin. If the amplifier will
be enabled at all times, the EN pin can be connected
directly to DGND. If the enable function is desired, either
driving the pin above 2V or allowing the internal 46k pullup resistor to pull the EN pin to the top rail will disable the
amplifier. When disabled, the DC output impedance will
rise to approximately 360Ω through the internal feedback
and gain resistors. Supply current into the amplifier in the
disabled state will be:
V + – VEN V + – V –
IS =
+
46k
80k
It is important that the following constraints on the DGND,
EN and SEL pins are always followed:
V+ – VDGND ≥ 4.5V
VEN – VDGND ≤ 5.5V
VSEL – VDGND ≤ 8V
In dual supply cases where V+ is less than 4.5V, DGND
should be connected to a potential below ground, such as
V–. Since the EN and SEL pins are referenced to DGND,
they may need to be pulled below ground in those cases.
In single supply applications above 5.5V, an additional
resistor may be needed from the EN pin to DGND if the pin
is ever allowed to float. For example, on a 12V single
supply, a 33k resistor would protect the pin from floating
too high while still allowing the internal pull-up resistor to
disable the part.
On dual ±2.25V supplies, connecting the DGND pin to V–
is the only way of ensuring that V+ – VDGND ≥ 4.5V.
The DGND pin should not be pulled above the EN pin since
doing so will turn on an ESD protection diode. If the EN pin
voltage is forced a diode drop below the DGND pin, current
should be limited to 10mA or less.
The enable/disable times of the LT6555 are fast when
driven with a logic input. Turn on (from 50% EN input to
50% output) typically occurs in less than 50ns. Turn off is
slower, but is typically below 500ns.
Channel Select
The SEL pin uses the same internal threshold as the EN pin
and is also referenced to DGND. When the pin is logic low,
the channel A inputs are passed to the output. When the
pin is logic high, the channel B inputs are passed to the
output. The pin should not be floated but can be tied to
DGND to force the outputs to always be channel A or to V+
(when less than 8V) to force the outputs to always be
channel B.

Input Considerations
The LT6555 uses input clamps referenced to the VREF pin
to prevent damage to the input stage on the unselected
channel. Three transistors in series limit the input voltage
to within three diode drops (±) from VREF. VREF is nominally set to half of the sum of the supplies by the 40k
resistors. A simplified schematic is shown in Figure 1.
To improve clamping, the pin’s DC impedance should be
minimized by connecting the VREF pin directly to ground in
the symmetric dual supply case with a common mode
voltage of 0V. While loaded output swing limits the useful
input voltage range in that case, if the common mode
voltage is not centered at ground or the input voltage
exceeds plus or minus three diodes from ground, an
external resistor to either supply can be added to shift the

Figure 1. Simplified Schematic of VREF Pin and Input Clamping
VREF voltage to the desired level. The only way to cover the
full common mode voltage range of V– + 1V to V+ – 1V is
to shift VREF up or down. Note that on a single supply, the
unclamped input range limits the output low swing to 2V
(1V multiplied by the internal gain of 2).
The VREF pin can also be directly driven with a DC source.
Bypassing the VREF pin is not necessary.
The inputs can be driven beyond the point at which the
output clips so long as input currents are limited to less
than ±10mA. Continuing to drive the input beyond the
output limit can result in increased current drive and
slightly increased swing, but will also increase supply
current and may result in delays in transient response at
larger levels of overdrive.
Layout and Grounding
It is imperative that care is taken in PCB layout in order to
benefit from the very high speed and very low crosstalk of
the LT6555. Separate power and ground planes are highly
recommended and trace lengths should be kept as short
as possible. If input or output traces must be run over a
distance of several centimeters, they should use a controlled impedance with matching series and shunt resistances (nominally 75Ω) to maintain signal fidelity.
Series termination resistors should be placed as close to
the output pins as possible to minimize output capacitance. See the Typical Performance Characteristics section for a plot of frequency response with various output
capacitors—only 10pF of parasitic output capacitance
before the series termination resistor causes 6dB of
peaking in the frequency response!
Low ESL/ESR bypass capacitors should be placed as
close to the positive and negative supply pins as possible.
One 4700pF ceramic capacitor is recommended for both
V+ and V– supply busses. Additional 470pF ceramic capacitors with minimal trace length on each supply pin will
further improve AC and transient response as well as
channel isolation. For high current drive and large-signal
transient applications, additional 1µF to 10µF tantalums
should be added on each supply. The smallest value
capacitors should be placed closest to the package.
If the AGND pins are not connected to ground, they must
be carefully bypassed to maintain minimal impedance
over frequency. Although crosstalk will vary depending
upon board layout, a recommended starting point for
bypass capacitors would be 470pF as close as possible to
each AGND pin with a single 4700pF capacitor in parallel.

To maintain the LT6555’s channel isolation, it is beneficial
to shield parallel input and parallel output traces using a
ground plane or power supply traces. Vias between topside
and backside metal may be required to maintain a low
inductance ground near the part where numerous traces
converge. See Figures 6 and 7 for photos of an optimized
layout.
Input Expansion
In applications with more than two inputs per channel,
multiple LT6555s can be connected by several different
methods. The simplest method is to connect the outputs
after the 75Ω series termination, as shown in Figure 2. The
compromise of this approach is that the internal gain
setting resistors cause a 435Ω shunt across the 75Ω cable
termination, resulting in increased gain error.
Figure 3 illustrates the loading effect of expanding the
number of inputs. The resultant gain error can be calculated by the following formula using n as the number of
LT6555s:
⎞
⎛ 435Ω
75Ω
⎟
⎜
Gain Error (dB) = 6dB + 20log ⎜ n – 1
⎟ dB
435Ω
⎜ 75 +
75Ω ⎟
⎠
⎝
n–1
For example, two LT6555s would result in a gain error of
–0.74dB per channel. Three LT6555s (i.e., six red inputs,
six green inputs and six blue inputs), would have a gain
error of –1.4dB.

Another approach that does not compromise gain accuracy is to connect the outputs directly together before the
series termination. In this case, there will be slightly
increased output glitching and supply current spiking
during the EN pin switching, but the additional output
loading will not increase the gain error, and the series
termination resistors remain at their ideal value for AC
response. See Figure 4 for a scope photo showing the
result of the outputs connected both before and after the
series terminations, and Figure 8 for a full schematic of a
4:1 RGB multiplexer with the output pins directly connected together. It is imperative that the output traces be
as short as possible before the series termination in order
to reduce capacitance and minimize AC peaking.

This systematic gain error can be significantly reduced by
lowering the value of the 75Ω series termination resistors.
The compromise of this approach is an increased dependence on the accuracy of the 75Ω shunt termination at the
receiving end of the line. A table of values for 1% series
termination resistors from n = 2 to n = 4 is shown below.

ESD Protection
The LT6555 has reverse-biased ESD protection diodes on
all pins. If any pins are forced a diode drop above the
positive supply or a diode drop below the negative supply,
large currents may flow through these diodes. If the
current is kept below 10mA, no damage to the devices will
occur.

RGB Multiplexer Demo Board
The DC858A Demo Board illustrates optimal routing,
bypassing and termination using the LT6555 as an
RGB video multiplexer. The schematic is shown in Figure 5. All inputs and outputs are routed to have a characteristic impedance of 75Ω and 75Ω input shunt and output
series terminations are connected as close to the part as
possible. The board is fabricated with four layers with
internal ground and power planes. For ideal operation, a
75Ω load termination should be connected at the output.
The LT6555’s gain of 2 will compensate for the resulting
divider between the series and load termination resistors.
Figures 6 and 7 show the topside and bottom side board
layout and placement.
