Description
The CA3256 BiMOS analog video switch has 鏗乿e channels
of CMOS multiplex switching for general-purpose video-
signal control. One of four CMOS channels may be selected
in parallel with channel 5. The CMOS switches are inputs to
the video ampli鏗乪r 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 ON-
channel. 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 con鏗乬ured in a 鈥淭鈥?design to minimize
feedthrough. When the switch is off, the shunt or center of
the 鈥淭鈥?is grounded.
The ampli鏗乪r has high input impedance to minimize the R
ON
transmission gate insertion loss. The ampli鏗乪r output imped-
ance is typically 5鈩?in a complementary symmetry output.
The ampli鏗乪r can directly drive a nominal 75鈩?coaxial cable
to provide line-to-line video switching. The gain of the ampli-
鏗乪r is programmable by different feedback resistor values
between pins 8 and 9. Compensation may also be used
between these pins for an optimally 鏗俛t frequency response.
An internal regulated 5V bias reference with temperature
compensation permits stable direct-coupled output drive and
minimizes DC offset during signal switching.
