Power Consumption

The quiescent power consumption and average power
consumption of the MAX9655/MAX9656 are very low
because of the 3.3V operation and low-power circuit
design. Quiescent power consumption is defined when
the MAX9655/MAX9656 are operating without loads
and without any video signals.

Average power consumption represents the normal
power consumption when the devices drive real video
signals into real video loads. It is measured when the
MAX9655/MAX9656 drive a 150

Ω load to ground with

a 50% flat field, which serves as a proxy for a real
video signal.

Table 6 shows the quiescent and average power con-
sumption of the MAX9655/MAX9656.

Power-Supply Bypassing and Ground

The MAX9655/MAX9656 operate from a single-supply
voltage down to 2.7V, allowing for low-power operation.
Bypass V

DD

to GND with a 0.1µF capacitor. Place

all external components as close as possible to
the device.
