3-Channel Video Reconstruction Filter for RGB Component Video

The MAX7449, 3-channel, buffered video reconstruction filter is ideal for anti-aliasing and digital-to-analog converter (DAC)-smoothing video applications or wherever analog video is reconstructed from a digital data stream (such as cable/satellite/terrestrial set-top boxes, DVD players, hard-disk recorders (HDRs), and personal video recorders (PVRs)). This device operates from a single +5V supply and has a flat passband out to 5MHz with a stopband attenuation of 43dB at 27MHz. This makes it ideal for use with NTSC, PAL, and standard-definition digital TV (SDTV) video systems. Each output is capable of driving two standard 150Ω video loads.

The MAX7449 processes component RGB video signals. The output video buffers have a fixed gain of +6dB. The output video drivers can be disabled with an external pin.

The MAX7449 is available in a 14-pin TSSOP package with an exposed pad, and is specified over the -40°C to +85°C extended temperature range.
