Audio/Video Switch for Dual SCART Connectors
Features
♦ Video Outputs Drive 2VP-P into 150Ω
The video and audio channels feature input source selection multiplexers, input buffers, and output buffers for routing all inputs to selected outputs. The MAX4397DA audio
encoder input is differential DC-coupled, while the
MAX4397SA audio encoder input is single-ended AC-coupled. Except for the MAX4397DA’s audio encoder input,
all other inputs and outputs are AC-coupled with internal
DC-biasing set to predefined levels.
The MAX4397DA/SA provide programmable gain control
from +5dB to +7dB in 1dB steps for Red, Green, and
Blue component video signals. All other video outputs
have a fixed +6dB gain. Additional features include an
internal Luma and Chroma (Y/C) mixer that generates a
Composite video signal (CVBS) to supply an RF
modulator output and internal video reconstruction lowpass filters with passband ripple between -1dB and
+1dB from 100kHz to 5.5MHz. The MAX4397DA/SA TV
audio channel feature clickless switching and programmable volume control from -56dB to +6dB in 2dB steps.
The VCR audio output also has programmable gain for
-6dB, 0dB, or +6dB. The device also generates
monaural audio from left and right stereo inputs.
All audio drivers deliver a 3.0VRMS minimum output.
The MAX4397DA/SA operate with standard 5V and 12V
power supplies and support slow-switching and fastswitching signals. The I2C interface programs the gain
and volume control, and selects the input source
for routing.
The MAX4397DA/SA are available in a compact 48-pin
thin QFN package and are specified over the 0°C to
+70°C commercial temperature range.

Detailed Description
The MAX4397DA/SA are switch matrices that route
audio and video signals between different ports using
the I 2 C interface. The ports consist of the MPEG
decoder output, and two SCART connectors for the TV
and VCR. Per EN50049 and IEC 933, the encoder can
only input a signal to the SCART connector, while TV
and VCR SCART connectors are bidirectional.
The MAX4397DA/SA circuitry consists of four major
sections: the video section, the audio section, the slowand fast-switching section, and the digital interface.
The video section consists of clamp and bias circuitry,
input buffers, reconstruction filters, a switch matrix, a Y/C
mixer, and output buffers. All video inputs are AC-coupled through a 0.1µF capacitor to set an acceptable DC
10
level using clamp or bias networks. The bidirectional
Red/Chroma outputs can be connected to ground using
I2C control to make them terminations when Red/Chroma
is an input (see the Video Inputs section).
The audio section features an input buffer, a switching
matrix, volume- or gain-control circuitry, and output drivers. The audio inputs are AC-coupled through a 0.1µF
capacitor. Only the audio encoder inputs of the
MAX4397DA are different from the MAX4397SA. The
MAX4397SA has a single-ended audio encoder input
while the audio encoder input for the MAX4397DA is differential. The TV output audio path has volume control
from -56dB to +6dB in 2dB steps, while the VCR output
audio path has volume control from -6dB to +6dB in 6dB
steps. The MAX4397DA/SA can be configured to switch
inputs during a zero-crossing function to reduce clicks.

amplifiers, and a Y/C mixer driver for an RF modulator.
See Figure 1 for the functional diagram of the video section. While the SCART connector supports RGB, S-video,
and Composite video formats, RGB, and S-video typically
share a bidirectional set of SCART connector pins.

MAX4397DA/SA
The digital block contains the 2-wire interface circuitry,
control, and status registers. The MAX4397DA/SA can
be configured through an I 2C-compatible interface.
DEV_ADDR sets the I2C-compatible address.
The slow-switching feature allows for bidirectional, trilevel, slow-switching input and output signals at pin
VCR_SS and TV_SS, respectively. The slow-switching
signals from the VCR set the aspect ratio or video source
of the TV screen. See the Slow Switching section.
Fast switching consists of two inputs from the encoder
and VCR, and one output to the TV to insert an onscreen display (OSD). Fast switching is used to route
video signals from the VCR or from the encoder to the
TV. In addition, the fast-switching output can be configured to a high or low voltage. Fast switching is controlled through the I2C interface.
MAX4397DA/SA
Audio/Video Switch for Dual SCART Connectors
Video Inputs
All video inputs are AC-coupled with an external 0.1µF
capacitor. Either a clamp or bias circuit sets the DC
input level of the video signals. The clamp circuit positions the sync tip of the Composite (CVBS), the
Component RGB, or the S-Video Luma signal. If the signal does not have a sync tip, then the clamp positions
the minimum of the signal at the clamp voltage. The bias
circuitry is used to position the S-video Chroma signal at
midlevel of the Luma (Y) signal. On the video inputs that
can receive either a Chroma or a Red video signal, the
bias or clamp circuit is selected through I2C. See Tables
3–12 for loading register details.
The MPEG decoder and VCR uses the RGB format and
fast switching to insert an on-screen display (OSD), usually text, onto the TV. The MAX4397DA/SA support RGB
as an input from either the VCR or the MPEG decoder
and as an output only to the TV. The Red video signal of
the RGB format and the Chroma video signal of the SVHS format share the same SCART connector pin.
Therefore, RGB and S-video signals cannot be present
at the same time. Loop-through is possible with a
Composite video signal but not with RGB signals
because the RGB SCART pins are used for both input
and output.
In SCART, there is the possibility of a bidirectional use
of the Red/Chroma pin. When using the Red/Chroma
pin as an input port, terminate the Red/Chroma output
with a 75Ω resistor to ground. Thus, a ground state is
provided by an active pulldown to GNDVID on the
Red/Chroma output to support the bidirectional Chroma
or Red I/O, turning the output source resistors into terminations (see Figure 2). The active pulldown also provides the “Mute Output” function and disables the
deselected video outputs. The “Mute Output” state is
the default power-on state for video.
For high-quality home video, the MPEG decoder, VCR,
and TV use the S-video format. The MAX4397DA/SA
support S-video signals as an input from the VCR, the
MPEG decoder, and the TV, and also as a separately
switchable output to the TV and VCR. Because S-video
support was not included in the original specifications
of the SCART connector, the Luma (Y) signal of S-video
and the CVBS signal share the same SCART connector
pins. If S-video is present, then a Composite signal
must be created from the Y and C signals to drive the
RF_CVBS_OUT pin. For S-video, loop-through is not
possible since the Chroma SCART port is used for both
input and output.
The MAX4397DA/SA support Composite video (CVBS)
format, with inputs from the VCR, MPEG decoder, and
TV. Full loop-through is possible to the TV and VCR
only since the MPEG decoder SCART connector has
separate input and output pins for the CVBS format.

Slow Switching
The MAX4397DA/SA support the IEC 933-1,
Amendment 1, tri-level slow switching that selects the
aspect ratio for the display (TV). Under I2C-compatible
control, the MAX4397DA/SA set the slow-switching output voltage level. Table 1 shows the valid input levels of
the slow-switching signal and the corresponding operating modes of the display device.
Two bidirectional ports are available for slow-switching
signals for the TV and VCR. The slow-switching input
status is continuously read and stored in the register
0Eh. The slow-switching outputs can be set to a logic
level or high impedance by writing to registers 07h and
09h. See Tables 8 and 10 for details.
Fast Switching
The VCR or MPEG decoder outputs a fast-switching
signal to the display device or TV to insert an on-screen
display (OSD). The fast-switching signal can also be
set to a constant high or low output signal through the
I 2C interface. The fast-switching output can be set
through writing to register 07h.
Y/C Mixer
The MAX4397DA/SA include an on-chip mixer to produce Composite video (CVBS) when S-video (Y and C)
is present. The Composite video drives the
RF_CVBS_OUT output pin. The circuit sums Y and C
signals to obtain the CVBS component. A +6dB output
buffer drives RF_CVBS_OUT.
Video Reconstruction Filter
The encoder DAC outputs need to be lowpass-filtered
to reject the out-of-band noise. The MAX4397DA/SA
integrate the reconstruction filter. The filter is fourth
order, which is composed of two Sallen-Key biquad in
cascade, implementing a Butterworth-type transfer
function. The internal reconstruction filters feature a
5.5MHz cutoff frequency and -30dB minimum attenuation at 27MHz. Note that the SET pin is used to set the
accuracy of the filter cutoff frequency. Connect a
100kΩ resistor from SET to ground.
SCART Audio Switching
Audio Inputs
All audio inputs for the MAX4397SA are single-ended
and AC-coupled. The MAX4397DA audio inputs are
singled-ended and AC-coupled except for the audio
encoder input, which is differential DC-coupled.
The audio block has three stereo audio inputs from the
TV, the VCR, and the MPEG decoder SCART. Each
input has a 100kΩ resistor connected to an internally
generated voltage equal to 0.23 x V12, except for the
encoder input of the MAX4397DA, where the DC bias is
fixed externally.

Video Outputs
The DC level at the video outputs is controlled so that
coupling capacitors are not required, and all of the video
outputs are capable of driving a DC-coupled, 150Ω,
back-terminated coax load with respect to ground.
In a typical television input circuit (see Figure 3), the
video output driver on the SCART chip only needs to
source current. Users should note that, while the
SCART specification states 75Ω impedance, in practice, typical SCART chip implementations assume 75Ω
input resistance to ground (and source current from the
video output stage).
Since some televisions and VCRs use the horizontal
sync height for automatic gain control, the
MAX4397DA/SA accurately reproduce the sync height
to within ±2%.
MAX4397DA/SA
Audio/Video Switch for Dual SCART Connectors
Audio Outputs
Both right and left channels have a stereo output for the
TV and VCR SCART. The monaural output, which is a
mix of the TV right and left channels, drives the RF
modulator, RF_MONO_OUT. The monaural mixer, a
resistor summer, attenuates the amplitude of each of
the two signals by 6dB. A 12.54dB gain block follows
the monaural mixer. If the left and right audio channels
were completely uncorrelated, then a 9.54dB gain
block is used. See Figures 4 and 5 for the functional
diagram of the audio section.
Clickless Switching
The TV channel incorporates a zero-crossing detect
(ZCD) circuit that minimizes click noise due to abrupt
signal level changes that occur when switching
between audio signals at an arbitrary moment.

To implement the zero-crossing function when switching audio signals, set the ZCD bit by loading register
00h through the I2C-compatible interface (if the ZCD bit
is not already set). Then set the mute bit low by loading
register 00h. Next, wait for a sufficient period of time for
the audio signal to cross zero. This period is a function
of the audio signal path’s low-frequency 3dB corner
(fL3dB). Thus, if fL3dB = 1kHz, the time period to wait for
a zero-crossing detect is 1/2kHz or 0.5ms.
Next, set the appropriate TV switches using register
01h. Finally, clear the mute bit (while leaving the ZCD bit
high) using register 00h. The MAX4397DA/SA switch the
signal out of mute at the next zero crossing.
To implement the zero-cross function for TV volume
changes, or for TV and phono volume bypass switching, simply ensure the ZCD bit in register 00h is set.

AUDIO INPUTS

Audio/Video Switch for Dual SCART Connectors
Volume Control
The TV channel volume control ranges from -56dB to
+6dB in 2dB steps. The VCR volume control settings
are programmable for -6dB, 0dB, and +6dB. These
gain levels are referenced to the application inputs,
where some dividers are present. With the ZCD bit set,
the TV volume control switches only at zero-crossings,
thus minimizing click noise. The TV outputs can bypass
the volume control. Likewise, the monaural output signal can be processed by the TV volume control or it
can bypass the volume control.
The two bus lines (SDA and SCL) must be at logic-high
when the bus is not in use. The MAX4397DA/SA are slave
devices and must be controlled by a master device.
Pullup resistors from the bus lines to the supply are
required when push-pull circuitry is not driving the lines.
The logic level on the SDA line can only change when
the SCL line is low. The start and stop conditions occur
when SDA toggles low/high while the SCL line is high
(see Figure 6). Data on SDA must be stable for the
duration of the setup time (tSU,DAT) before SCL goes
high. Data on SDA is sampled when SCL toggles high
with data on SDA stable for the duration of the hold time
(tHD,DAT). Note that data is transmitted in an 8-bit byte.
A total of nine clock cycles are required to transfer a
byte to the MAX4397DA/SA. The device acknowledges
the successful receipt of the byte by pulling the SDA
line low during the 9th clock cycle.
Digital Section
Serial Interface
The MAX4397DA/SA use a simple 2-wire serial interface requiring only two standard microprocessor port
I/O lines. The fast-mode I2C-compatible serial interface
allows communication at data rates up to 400kbps or
400kHz. Figure 6 shows the timing diagram of the signals on the 2-wire interface.

I2C Compatibility
The MAX4397DA/SA are compatible with existing I 2C
systems. SCL and SDA are high-impedance inputs.
SDA has an open drain that pulls the bus line to a logiclow during the 9th clock pulse. Figure 7 shows a typical
I2C interface application. The communication protocol
supports the standard I2C 8-bit communications. The
MAX4397DA/SA address is compatible with the 7-bit I2C
addressing protocol only; 10-bit format is not supported.
Digital Inputs and Interface Logic
The I2C-compatible, 2-wire interface has logic levels
defined as VIL = 0.8V and VIH = 2.0V. All of the inputs
include Schmitt-trigger buffers to accept low-transition
interfaces. The digital inputs are compatible with 3V
CMOS logic levels.

address 0Eh. See Tables 3–12 for register programming information.
Applications Information
Hot Plug of SCART Connectors
The MAX4397DA/SA feature high-ESD protection on all
SCART inputs and outputs, and requires no external
transient-voltage suppressor (TVS) devices to protect
against floating chassis discharge. Some set-top boxes
have a floating chassis problem in which the chassis is
not connected to earth ground. As a result, the chassis
can charge up to 500V. When a SCART cable is connected to the SCART connector, the charged chassis
can discharge through a signal pin. The equivalent circuit is a 2200pF capacitor charged to 311V connected
through less than 0.1Ω to a signal pin. The
MAX4397DA/SA are soldered on the PCB when it experiences such a discharge. Therefore, the current spike
flows through the ESD protection diodes and is
absorbed by the supply bypass capacitors, which have
high capacitance and low ESR.
To better protect the MAX4397DA/SA against excess
voltages during the cable discharge condition, place
an additional 75Ω resistor in series with all inputs and
outputs to the SCART connector. For harsh environments where ±15kV protection is needed, the
MAX4385E and MAX4386E single and quad highspeed op amps feature the industry’s first integrated
±15kV ESD protection on video inputs and outputs.

MAX4397DA/SA
Audio/Video Switch for Dual SCART Connectors
Power Supplies and Bypassing
Layout and Grounding
The MAX4397DA/SA feature single 5V and 12V supply
operation and requires no negative supply. The +12V
supply V12 is for the SCART switching function. For pin
V12, place all bypass capacitors as close as possible
with a 10µF capacitor in parallel with a 0.1µF ceramic
capacitor. Connect all VAUD pins together to +5V and
bypass with a 10µF electrolytic capacitor in parallel with a
0.47µF low-ESR ceramic capacitor to audio ground.
Bypass V AUD pins with a 0.1µF capacitor to audio
ground. Bypass AUD_BIAS to audio ground with a 10µF
electrolytic in parallel with a 0.1µF ceramic capacitor.
For optimal performance, use controlled-impedance
traces for video signal paths and place input termination resistors and output back-termination resistors
close to the MAX4397DA/SA. Avoid routing video
traces parallel to high-speed data lines.
The MAX4397DA/SA provide separate ground connections for video, audio, and digital supplies. For best
performance, use separate ground planes for each of
the ground returns and connect all three ground planes
together at a single point. Refer to the MAX4397DA/SA
evaluation kit for a proven circuit board layout example.
Bypass VDIG with a 0.1µF ceramic capacitor to digital
ground. Bypass each VVID to video ground with a 0.1µF
ceramic capacitor. Connect VVID in series with a 200nH
ferrite bead to the +5V supply.
