MAX4028/MAX4029
Triple/Quad, 2:1 Video
Multiplexer-Amplifiers with Input Clamps
General Description
The MAX4028/MAX4029 are 5V, triple/quad, 2:1 voltagefeedback multiplexer-amplifiers with input clamps and a
fixed gain of +2V/V (6dB). Channel 1 (IN1A and IN1B)
inputs are clamped to the video sync tip of the input
signal, while the remaining inputs can be clamped to
either the video sync tip or the video sync of channel 1
(IN1_). The latter is referred to as a key clamp and is pin
selectable. Selectable clamp/key-clamp inputs and fixedgain video output buffers make the MAX4028/MAX4029
ideal for video-source switching applications such as
entertainment systems, video projectors, and displays/
TVs. Both devices have 20ns channel switching times
and low ±10mVP-P switching transients, making them
ideal for high-speed video switching applications such as
on-screen display (OSD) insertion.
The MAX4028/MAX4029 have a -3dB large-signal (2VP-P)
bandwidth of 130MHz, a -3dB small-signal bandwidth of
210MHz, and a 300V/µs slew rate. Low differential gain
and phase errors of 0.2% and 0.4°, respectively, make
these devices ideal for broadcast video applications.
The MAX4028/MAX4029 are specified over the -40°C to
+85°C extended temperature range and are offered in
16-pin and 20-pin TSSOP/SO packages.

The MAX4028/MAX4029 have a -3dB large-signal (2VP-P)
bandwidth of 130MHz, a -3dB small-signal bandwidth of
210MHz, and a 300V/µs slew rate. Low differential gain
and phase errors of 0.2% and 0.4°, respectively, make
these devices ideal for broadcast video applications.
Sync Tip and Key Clamps
IN4A
CLAMP/KEY_4
The MAX4028/MAX4029 are 5V, triple/quad, 2:1
voltage-feedback multiplexer-amplifiers with input clamps
and a fixed gain of +2V/V (6dB). Channel 1 (IN1A and
IN1B) inputs are clamped to the video sync tip of the
input IN1_ channel, while the remaining inputs can be
clamped to either the video sync tip of the respective input
channel (IN_A and IN_B) or the video sync of channel 1
(IN1_). The latter is referred to as a key clamp and is pin
selectable. Selectable clamp/key-clamp inputs and fixedgain video output buffers make the MAX4028/MAX4029
ideal for video-source switching applications such as
entertainment systems, video projectors, and displays/
TVs. Both devices have 20ns channel switching times
and low ±10mVP-P switching transients, making them
ideal for both high-speed video switching applications
such as OSD insertion.

The MAX4028/MAX4029 have AC-coupled inputs, with
either a sync tip or key clamp to provide bias for the video
signal. Channel 1 of the MAX4028/MAX4029 always has a
sync tip clamp at the input, while the remaining channels
are selectable as either sync tip or key clamps to accommodate the various video waveforms (see the Clamp/
Key-Clamp Settings for Video Formats section). The value
of the sync-tip clamp voltage is set internally for the lowest value, consistent with linear operation, and cannot be
adjusted. The key-clamp voltage is adjustable, to compensate for variations in the voltage between component video
inputs such as Linear RGB, YPbPr, and Y-C, by varying
RKEYREF. The key-clamp voltage can be computed from:
VKey-Clamp = 0.40 + 2000/[(5000 x RKEYREF)/
(5000 + RKEYREF)]

Therefore, a 6kΩ resistor will produce a 1.13V
key-clamp voltage as shown in Figure 2. The clamp
voltage (VCLAMP) is measured at the output; the voltage
at the input is VCLAMP (sync tip or key clamp) divided by
the gain (+2V/V) + VBE.
In order for these clamps (sync tip or key) to work
properly, the input must be coupled with a 0.1µF capacitor (typ) with low leakage (
