MAX9509/MAX9510
1.8V, Ultra-Low Power, DirectDrive
Video Filter Amplifiers
General Description
Operating from a 1.8V single power supply, the MAX9509/
MAX9510 amplify standard-definition video signals and
only consume 5.8mW quiescent power and 11.7mW average power. The MAX9509/MAX9510 leverage Maxim’s
DirectDrive® technology to generate a clean, internal negative supply. Combining the internal negative power supply with the external positive 1.8V supply, the MAX9509/
MAX9510 are able to drive a 2VP-P video signal into a
150Ω load.
Besides increasing the output voltage range, Maxim’s
DirectDrive technology eliminates large output-coupling
capacitors and sets the output video black level near
ground. DirectDrive requires an integrated charge pump
and an internal linear regulator to create a clean negative
power supply so that the amplifier can pull the sync below
ground. The charge pump injects little noise into the video
output, making the picture visibly flawless.
The MAX9509/MAX9510 are designed to operate from
the 1.8V digital power supply. The high power-supply
rejection ratio (49dB at 100kHz) allows the MAX9509/
MAX9510 to reject the noise from the digital power supply.
The MAX9509 features an internal reconstruction filter
that smoothes the steps and reduces the spikes on
the video signal from the video digital-to-analog converter (DAC). The reconstruction filter typically has ±1dB
passband flatness of 8.1MHz and 46dB attenuation at
27MHz. The large-signal, ±1dB passband flatness of the
MAX9510 video amplifier is typically 8.4MHz, and the
large signal -3dB frequency is typically 11.4MHz.
The input of the MAX9509/MAX9510 can be directly
connected to the output of a video DAC. The MAX9509/
MAX9510 also feature a transparent input sync-tip clamp,
allowing AC-coupling of input signals with different DC
biases. The MAX9509/MAX9510 have an internal fixed
gain of 8. The input full-scale video signal is nominally
0.25VP-P, and the output full-scale video signal is nominally 2VP-P. The devices operate from a 1.8V or 2.5V
single supply and feature a 10nA low-power shutdown
mode. The MAX9509 is offered in an 8-pin TDFN package
and the MAX9510 is offered in an 8-pin μMAX® package.

Detailed Description
The MAX9509/MAX9510 represent Maxim’s second generation of DirectDrive video amplifiers that meet the
requirements of current and future portable equipment:
• 1.8V operation. Engineers want to eliminate the 3.3V
supply in favor of lower supply voltages.
• Lower power consumption. The MAX9509/MAX9510
reduce average power consumption by up to 75%
compared to the 3.3V first generation (MAX9503/
MAX9505).
• Internal fixed gain of 8. As the supply voltages drop for
system chips on deep submicron processes, the video
DAC can no longer create a 1VP-P signal at its output,
and the gain of 2 found in the previous generation of
video filter amplifiers is not enough.
DirectDrive technology is necessary for a voltage mode
amplifier to output a 2VP-P video signal from a 1.8V supply. The integrated inverting charge pump creates a negative supply that increases the output range and gives the
video amplifier enough headroom to drive a 2VP-P video
signal with a 150Ω load.
DirectDrive
Background
Integrated video filter amplifier circuits operate from a
single supply. The positive power supply usually creates
video output signals that are level-shifted above ground
www.maximintegrated.com
to keep the signal within the linear range of the output
amplifier. For applications where the positive DC level is
not acceptable, a series capacitor can be inserted in the
output connection in an attempt to eliminate the positive
DC level shift. The series capacitor cannot truly level-shift
a video signal because the average level of the video varies with picture content. The series capacitor biases the
video output signal around ground, but the actual level of
the video signal can vary significantly depending upon the
RC time constant and the picture content.
The series capacitor creates a highpass filter. Since the
lowest frequency in video is the frame rate, which can be
from 24Hz to 30Hz, the pole of the highpass filter should
ideally be an order of magnitude lower in frequency than
the frame rate. Therefore, the series capacitor must be
very large, typically from 220μF to 3000μF. For spaceconstrained equipment, the series capacitor is unacceptable.
Changing from a single series capacitor to a SAG network
that requires two smaller capacitors only reduces space
and cost slightly.
The series capacitor in the usual output connection also
prevents damage to the output amplifier if the connector
is shorted to a supply or to ground. While the output connection of the MAX9509/MAX9510 does not have a series
capacitor, the MAX9509/MAX9510 will not be damaged if
the connector is shorted to a supply or to ground (see the
Short-Circuit Protection section).

Video Filter Amplifiers
Video Amplifier
If the full-scale video signal from a video DAC is 250mV,
the black level of the video signal created by the video
DAC is approximately 75mV. The MAX9509/MAX9510
shift the black level to near ground at the output so that
the active video is above ground and the sync is below
ground. The amplifier needs a negative supply for its output stage to remain in its linear region when driving sync
below ground.
The MAX9509/MAX9510 have an integrated charge
pump and linear regulator to create a low-noise negative
supply from the positive supply voltage. The charge pump
inverts the positive supply to create a raw negative voltage that is then fed into the linear regulator filtering out
the charge-pump noise.
Comparison Between DirectDrive Output
and AC-Coupled Output
The actual level of the video signal varies less with a
DirectDrive output than an AC-coupled output. The average video signal level can change greatly depending
upon the picture content. With an AC-coupled output, the
average level will change according to the time constant
formed by the series capacitor and series resistance (usually 150Ω). For example, Figure 1 shows an AC-coupled
video signal alternating between a completely black
screen and a completely white screen. Notice the excursion of the video signal as the screen changes.
With the DirectDrive amplifier, the black level is held at
ground. The video signal is constrained between -0.3V
and +0.7V. Figure 2 shows the video signal from a
DirectDrive amplifier with the same input signal as the
AC-coupled system.
Video Reconstruction Filter (MAX9509)
The MAX9509 includes an internal five-pole, Butterworth
lowpass filter to condition the video signal. The reconstruction filter smoothes the steps and reduces the spikes
created whenever the DAC output changes value. In the
frequency domain, the steps and spikes cause images
of the video signal to appear at multiples of the sampling
clock frequency. The reconstruction filter typically has
±1dB passband flatness of 8.1MHz and 46dB attenuation
at 27MHz.
Transparent Sync-Tip Clamp
The MAX9509/MAX9510 contain an integrated, transparent sync-tip clamp. When using a DC-coupled input, the
sync-tip clamp does not affect the input signal, as long
as it remains above ground. When using an AC-coupled
input, the transparent sync-tip clamp automatically clamps
the input signal to ground, preventing it from going lower.
A small current of 2μA pulls down on the input to prevent
an AC-coupled signal from drifting outside the input range
of the part.
Using an AC-coupled input will result in some additional
variation of the black level at the output. Applying a voltage above ground to the input pin of the device always
produces the same output voltage, regardless of whether
the input is DC- or AC-coupled. However, since the SyncTip Clamp Level (VCLP) can vary over a small range, the
video black level at the output of the device when using
an AC-coupled input can vary by an additional amount
equal to the VCLP multiplied by the DC Voltage Gain (AV).

Interfacing to Video DACs that Produce Video
Signals Larger than 0.25VP-P
The MAX9509/MAX9510 Functional Diagram/Typical
Application Circuit includes a 75Ω back-termination resistor that limits short-circuit current if an external short is
applied to the video output. The MAX9509/MAX9510 also
feature internal output short-circuit protection to prevent
device damage in prototyping and applications where the
amplifier output can be directly shorted.
Shutdown
The MAX9509/MAX9510 feature a low-power shutdown
mode for battery-powered/portable applications. Shutdown
reduces the quiescent current to less than 10nA. Connecting
SHDN to ground (GND) disables the output and places the
MAX9509/MAX9510 into a lowpower shutdown mode.
In shutdown mode, the sync-tip clamp, filter (MAX9509),
amplifier, charge pump, and linear regulator are turned off
and the video output is high impedance.
Applications Information
The quiescent power consumption and average power
consumption of the MAX9509/MAX9510 are remarkably
low because of 1.8V operation and DirectDrive technology. Quiescent power consumption is defined when the
MAX9509/MAX9510 are operating without load. In this
case, the MAX9509/MAX9510 consume approximately
5.8mW. Average power consumption, which is defined
when the MAX9509/MAX9510 drive a 150Ω load to
ground with a 50% flat field, is about 11.7mW. Table 1
shows the power consumption with different video signals. The supply voltage is 1.8V. OUT drives a 150Ω load
to ground.

The MAX9509/MAX9510 expect input signals that are
0.25VP-P nominally. The same video DAC can be made
to work with the MAX9509/MAX9510 by scaling down the
150Ω resistor to a 37.5Ω resistor, as shown in Figure 4.
The 37.5Ω resistor is 1/4 the size of the 150Ω resistor,
resulting in a video signal that is 1/4 the amplitude.

Devices designed to generate 1VP-P video signals at the
output of the video DAC can still work with the MAX9509/
MAX9510. Most video DACs source current into a
ground-referenced resistor, which converts the current
into a voltage. Figure 3 shows a video DAC that creates
a video signal from 0 to 1V across a 150Ω resistor. The
following video filter amplifier has a gain of 2V/V so that
the output is 2VP-P.

Video Filter Amplifiers
Anti-Alias Filter
AC-couple the video signal to IN because the DC level
of an external video signal is usually not well specified,
although it is reasonable to expect that the signal is
between -2V and +2V. The 10Ω series resistor increases
the equivalent source resistance to approximately 25Ω,
which is the minimum necessary for a video source to
drive the internal sync-tip clamp.
The MAX9509 can also provide anti-alias filtering with a
buffer before an ADC, which would be present in a NTSC/
PAL video decoder, for example. Figure 5 shows an
example application circuit. An external composite video
signal is applied to VIDIN, which is terminated with a total
of 74Ω (56Ω and 18Ω resistors) to ground. The signal
is attenuated by four, and then AC-coupled to IN. The
normal 1VP-P video signal must be attenuated because
with a 1.8V supply, the MAX9509 can only handle a video
signal of approximately 0.25VP-P at IN.
For external video signals larger than 1VP-P, operate the
MAX9509 from a 2.5V supply so that IN can accommodate a 0.325VP-P video signal, which is equivalent to a
1.3VP-P video signal at VIDIN.

Video Source with a Positive DC Bias
ground, then the luma signal usually does not have a positive DC bias, and the sync tip is at approximately ground.
When the chroma and luma signals are added together,
the resulting composite video signal still has a positive
DC bias. Therefore, the signal must be AC-coupled into
the MAX9509/MAX9510 because the composite video
signal is above the nominal, DC-coupled input range of
0 to 0.25V.
In some applications, the video source generates a signal
with a positive DC voltage bias, i.e., the sync tip of the
signal is well above ground. Figure 6 shows an example
in which the outputs of the luma (Y) DAC and the chroma
(C) DAC are connected together. Since the DACs are
current-mode, the output currents sum together into the
resistor, which converts the resulting current into a voltage representing a composite video signal.
Video Signal Routing
If the chroma DAC has an independent output resistor
to ground, then the chroma signal, which is a carrier at
3.58MHz for NTSC or at 4.43MHz for PAL, has a positive DC bias to keep the signal above ground at all times.
If the luma DAC has an independent output resistor to
Minimize the length of the PCB trace between the output of the video DAC and the input of the MAX9509/
MAX9510 to reduce coupling of external noise into the
video signal. If possible, shield the PCB trace.

Power-Supply Bypassing and Ground
Management
Using a Digital Supply
The MAX9509/MAX9510 were designed to operate from
noisy digital supplies. The high PSRR (49dB at 100kHz)
allows the MAX9509/MAX9510 to reject the noise from
the digital power supplies (see the Typical Operating
Characteristics). If the digital power supply is very noisy
and stripes appear on the television screen, increase the
supply bypass capacitance. An additional, smaller capacitor in parallel with the main bypass capacitor can reduce
digital supply noise because the smaller capacitor has
lower equivalent series resistance (ESR) and equivalent
series inductance (ESL).
The MAX9509/MAX9510 operate from a 1.7V to 2.625V
single supply and require proper layout and bypassing.
For the best performance, place the components as close
to the device as possible.
Proper grounding improves performance and prevents
any switching noise from coupling into the video signal.
Bypass the analog supply (VDD) with a 0.1μF capacitor to
GND, placed as close to the device as possible. Bypass
VSS with a 1μF capacitor to GND as close to the device
as possible. The total system bypass capacitance on
VDD should be at least 10μF or ten times the capacitance
between C1P and C1N.
