VIDEO GAIN OF
a
2
The design of the LM6310 has been optimized for gain of
a
2 video applications. The differential gain and phase per-
formance of the LM6310 can be improved by adding a 1 k
X
pull down to
b
5V to the output. See Figure 1.
Typical values for differential gain and phase are 0.5% dif-
ferential gain and 0.1 degree differential phase.
VIDEO MULTIPLEXING
Figure 2 shows a video multiplexer made from two LM6310
and a logic device which can supply TTL equivalent level to
the DISABLE pins of the LM6310s. Only one DISABLE line
should be high at any one time.
Note that since a floating value on the DISABLE input is the
same as a high input, if all of the logic device’s output go to
a TRI-STATE or high impedance mode, all the LM6310’s
will turn on. This should be avoided.
Use adequate decoupling on the logic device to reduce
noise feedthrough of digital system and power noise to the
video signals. If it is not possible to adequately decouple the
logic device, consider using a small digital buffer, such as a
hex schmidt trigger inverter, which can be decoupled with
multiple capacitors and/or ferrite beads to reduce digital
noise.
Figure 3 shows a four input video multiplexer. With careful
layout, differential gain and phase performance almost as
good as a single LM6310 can be achieved.
A single 1 k
X
pull down to
b
5V should be used. Differential
gain of about 0.05% and differential phase of about 0.3 de-
gree are possible with the 4:1 multiplexer.

DISABLE FUNCTIONS
The LMC6681, LMC6682, and LMC6684 are 1 MHz amplifi-
ers with TRI-STATE outputs which can be used for audio
and low frequency multiplexing like the LM6310 is used for
video multiplexing.
