APPLICATIO S I FOR ATIO
enabled output. However, since the disabled LT6556 and its
traces have around 6pF of capacitance, it may be desirable
to resistively isolate the outputs of each channel to maintain
flat frequency response as shown in the graph labeled
“Maximum Capacitive Load vs Output Series Resistor” in
the Typical Performance Characteristics section.
ESD Protection
The LT6556 has reverse-biased ESD protection diodes on all
pins. If any pins are forced a diode drop above the positive
supply or a diode drop below the negative supply, large
currents may flow through these diodes. If the current is
kept below 10mA, no damage to the devices will occur.
TYPICAL APPLICATIO
RGB Multiplexer Demo Board
The DC892A Demo Board illustrates optimal routing,
bypassing and termination using the LT6556 as an
RGB video multiplexer. The schematic is shown in Figure 6.
All inputs and outputs are routed to have a characteristic
impedance of 75Ω and 75Ω input shunt and output series
terminations are connected as close to the part as pos-
sible. The board is fabricated with four layers with internal
ground and power planes.
While the 75Ω back termination resistors at the outputs
of the LT6556 minimize signal reflections in the output
traces and isolate the part from any capacitive loading in
those traces, they also contribute to gain error if the out-
put is not terminated with high impedance. For example,
if the output is terminated with a 1k load, the 75Ω back
termination will cause a 7% gain error. Decreasing the
value of the back termination resistors will decrease the
signal attenuation but may compromise the AC response.
However, connecting the LT6556 output pins to the output
traces on the DC892A board without some series resistance
is not recommended; 10Ω to 20Ω is generally sufficient.
Figures 7 and 8 show the top and bottom side board layout
and placement.
