One of four CMOS channels may be selected in parallel with channel 5. The CMOS switches are inputs to the video amplifier but may be used in bilateral switching between channels 1 to 4 and channel 5. The analog switches of channels 1 to 4 are digitally controlled with logic level conversion and binary decoding to select 1 of 4 channels. The enable function controls channels 1 to 4 but does not affect channel 5. LED output drivers are selected with the channel 1-to-4 switch selection to indicate the ONchannel. Channel 5 may be used as a monitor output for data or signal information on channels 1 to 4. The transmission gate switches shown in the block diagram of the CA3256 are configured in a “T” design to minimize feedthrough. When the switch is off, the shunt or center of the “T” is grounded. The amplifier has high input impedance to minimize the RON transmission gate insertion loss. The amplifier output impedance is typically 5Ω in a complementary symmetry output. The amplifier can directly drive a nominal 75Ω coaxial cable to provide line-to-line video switching. The gain of the amplifier is programmable by different feedback resistor values between pins 8 and 9. Compensation may also be used between these pins for an optimally flat frequency response. An internal regulated 5V bias reference with temperature compensation permits stable direct-coupled output drive and minimizes DC offset during signal switching.

CA3256 TEST CIRCUIT (DIP PINOUT) Application Information CMOS analog switches are available in a wide variety of forms, and have been known and used for some time. There are a number of advantages to using the CMOS transmission gate as a switch: • • • • • • • • • Ideal Suitability to Series Cascade Arrangements Simple Multiple Parallel Input Switching Arrangements No Bipolar Junctions and, Hence, No Offset Very Low Power Consumption Wide Signal-Swing Capability Fast Multiplexing and Video Switching Wide Bandwidth Low RON Channel Resistance Bidirectional Signal Handling speed as advantages, the price is high in voltage offset and current drain. The integrated device solution that is offered here is in the use of the BiMOS technology, where both the CMOS and bipolar processes complement each other to provide CMOS switching with bipolar amplifiers. The BiMOS process allows several CMOS switches to be coupled to a bipolar drive-amplifier in the same process to exploit the best of two technologies. Other advantages are gained when the BiMOS process is used for an IC video-switch amplifier design. The BiMOS process calls for a P-substrate and, therefore, isolated N-epitaxial wells can be built for both N and P channel parts. The boats provide for better isolation of the N and P channels. The N and P wells in a transmission-gate cell can be switched between source and rail; therefore, they have a smaller body effect on both N and P devices, which results in better gain linearity. Where desired, oxide capacitors are available for bipolar amplifier compensation. CA3256 Video-Switch Amplifier The Block Diagram shows the functional diagram of the CA3256, which consists of five MOS channels, each comprising a three-element T-switch. The output of the five switches is made common and fed into the input of a bipolar An Integrated Video-Switch Amplifier Commonly, integrated video-switch amplifiers have been fabricated in the bipolar technology using differential amplifiers in a current-switching mode. In this form, two differential pairs are needed for two input-signal sources. The handling of multiple sources is very much more complex. The advantages of the CMOS video-switch amplifier have already been noted. While the bipolar video switch has high output drive and switching 8-5 CA3256 buffer amplifier. The T-switch, together with the input impedance of the buffer, is typically 10kΩ, and has an insertion loss of approximately 0.8dB. The T-switch was designed to handle up to 3VP-P input signal with low distortion. The T-switches of the CA3256 conform to a break-before-make format; hence, shorting to ground is eliminated. The amplifier is programmable for gain and, typically, can provide a gain of 1 into a 75Ω load or a gain of 5 into a 1kΩ load. The maximum output signal swing with linearity is greater than 5VP-P for (V+ to V-) greater than or equal to 12V, while the maximum output current is approximately 20mA. The amplifier has base-current compensation to reduce offset and a temperature compensated 5V zener referenced bias. Other features include LED-selector indicators for channels 1 through 4. The fifth channel is independently selectable for use as a separate input or output in parallel with any on channel, and may be used as a monitor, or for pass-through, signal summing, or parallel distribution. In the application, the user has the option to specify V- = -5V for the switch and a ground reference for the amplifier input and output. Alternatively, the CA3256 may be used with a single +12V supply. The logic select for channels 1 through 4 is controlled by the A, B and Inhibit lines with ground to V+ logic switching. The logic threshold is approximately (V+ - V-)/2 referenced to ground. DC coupling may also be used at the output (when V- is returned to a -5V supply). For the circuit of Figure 3, AC coupling is used at the output and input. The switching bias arrangement shown provides for stable bias across each switch when in the off position to minimize transients when the input is switched.

OTHER TABULATED RESULTS FOR VARIATIONS OF LOAD AND FEEDBACK (V+ = +12V) 8-10 CA3256 Any combination of switch input circuits can be configured with multiple, parallel, line-drive outputs. The video switch amplifier circuit of Figure 8 illustrates how the CA3256 may be configured in pairs to provide an 8-to-1 video switch amplifier using a 3-bit address to select the input. It is also possible to use the fifth channel input to tie signals to a common bus line for distribution from the selected amplifier; however, distributed capacitance loading will result in reduced bandwidth. The 4 plus 1 combination of input-signal switching provides for a wide assortment of video switch circuit configurations. While the BiMOS process does provide some compromises for both the switch and the amplifier, the combined system is capable of the performance needed in most high-quality, switching applications. As an integrated system, many of the problems in PC-board layout are simplified, and there is a reduction in component count. In its simplest form, with +12V and -5V supplies, the CA3256 may be DC connected at the input and output; the LED indicators need not be connected. Under these conditions, the circuit may be as simple as the one in Figure 8.

In this respect, the CA3256 IC switch and amplifier discussed provide an excellent choice for a cost-effective high-performance video-switch amplifier, by taking advantage of the complementary features of both high-speed CMOS and bipolar integrated circuits.
