General Description

The MAX9595 dual SCART switch matrix routes audio
and video signals between an MPEG encoder and two
external SCART connectors under I

†

control, and

meets the requirements of EN50049-1, IEC 933-1,
Canal+, and BSkyB standards.

The video and audio channels feature input source
selection multiplexers, input buffers, and output buffers
for routing all inputs to selected outputs.

The MAX9595 provides programmable gain control from
+5dB to +7dB in 1dB steps for red, green, and blue com-
ponent 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 a
cutoff frequency of 6MHz. The MAX9595 TV audio chan-
nel features clickless switching and programmable vol-
ume 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
3.0V

RMS

minimum output.

The MAX9595 operates with standard 5V and 12V
power supplies and supports slow-switching and fast-
switching signals. The I

C interface programs the

gain and volume control, and selects the input source
for routing.

The MAX9595 is available in a compact 48-pin thin
QFN package and is specified over the 0°C to +70°C
commercial temperature range.
