Low-Power Audio/Video Switch with Audio
Volume Control for Dual SCART Connectors
General Description
The MAX9670/MAX9671 dual SCART matrices route
audio and video signals between a set-top box
decoder chip and two external SCART connectors
under I²C control. Operating from a 3.3V supply and a
12V supply, the MAX9670/MAX9671 consume 70mW
during quiescent operation and 471mW during average
operation when driving typical signals into typical
loads. Video input detection, video load detection, and
a 2.5mW standby mode facilitate the design of intelli-
gent, low-power set-top boxes.
The MAX9670/MAX9671 audio section contains a
buffered crosspoint to route audio inputs to audio out-
puts and programmable volume control from -62dB to
0dB in 2dB steps. The DirectDrive^® output amplifiers
create a 2V_RMS full-scale audio signal biased around
ground, eliminating the need for bulky output capaci-
tors and reducing click-and-pop noise. The zero-cross
detection circuitry also further reduces clicks and pops
by enabling audio sources to switch only during a zero-
crossing. The MAX9671 offers TV left and right audio
inputs.
The MAX9670/MAX9671 video section contains a
buffered crosspoint to route video inputs to video out-
puts. The standard-definition video signals from the set-
top box decoder chip are lowpass filtered to remove
out-of-band artifacts.
The MAX9670/MAX9671 also support slow-switching
and fast-switching signals. An interrupt signal from the
MAX9670/MAX9671 informs the microcontroller when
the system status has changed.
