ML6421*
Triple Phase and Sinx/x Equalized,
Low-Pass Video Filter
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ML6421 monolithic BiCMOS 6th-order filter provides
fixed frequency low pass filtering for video applications.
This triple phase-equalized filter with Sinx/x correction is
designed for reconstruction filtering at the output of a
Video DAC.
Cut-off frequencies are either 5.5, 8.0, or 3.0MHz. Each
channel incorporates a 6th-order lowpass filter, a first
order all-pass filter, a gain boost circuit, and a 75Ω coax
cable driver. A control pin (Range) is provided to allow
the inputs to swing from 0 to 1V, or 0.5 to 1.5V, by
providing a 0.5V offset to the input.
The unity gain filters are powered from a single 5V supply,
and can drive 1V
P-P
over 75Ω (0.5V to 1.5V), or 2V
P-P
over 150Ω (0.5V to 2.5V) with the internal coax drivers.
