FMS6501 Datasheet, PDF (4/16 Pages) Fairchild Semiconductor – 12 Input 9 Output Video Switch Matrix with Input Clamp, Input Bias Circuitry, and Output Drivers
Digital Interface
The I2C compatible interface is used to program output enables, input to output routing, input clamp / bias and output gain. The I2C
address of the FMS6501 is 0x06 (0000 0110) with the ability to offset it to 0x86 (1000 0110) by tying the ADDR pin high.
Both data and address data of eight bits each are written to the FMS6501 I2C address to access all the control functions.
There are separate internal addresses for each output. Each output’s address includes bits to select an input channel, adjust the out-
put gain, and enable or disable the output amplifier. More than one output can select the same input channel for one-to-many routing.
When the outputs are disabled they are placed in a high-impedance state. This allows multiple FMS6501 devices to be paralleled to
create a larger switch matrix. Typical output power-up times will be less than 500ns.
The clamp / bias control bits are written to their own internal address since they should always remain the same regardless of signal
routing. They are set based on the input signal connected to the FMS6501.
All undefined addresses may be written without effect.

Notes:
1. Power Down places the output in a high impedance state so multiple FMS6501 devices may be paralleled. Power
Down also de-selects any input routed to the specified output.
2. When all inputs are OFF, the amplifier input will be tied to approximately 150mV and the output will go to
approximately 300mV with the 6dB gain setting.
3. In4 is provided for forward compatibility and should always be written as ‘0’ in the FMS6501.
