Product details
Overview
EL4332CSZ from Intersil is a triple 2:1 high-speed multiplexer-amplifier with fixed gain of 2, 300MHz -3dB bandwidth, 3ns A/B switching time, and ±5V dual-supply operation. It serves as a pixel-synchronized RGB/YUV signal selector and driver in component video systems, enabling back-terminated 75Ω cable driving without external gain-setting components.
For engineers reviewing the EL4332CSZ datasheet, EL4332CSZ pinout, EL4332CSZ application, or EL4332CSZ equivalent, this device is selected for high-fidelity analog video routing where simultaneous channel switching, low crosstalk (<−100dB), and minimal glitch energy are critical in HDTV, picture-in-picture, and ADC input multiplexing designs.
Technical Context
The EL4332CSZ integrates three independent high-speed amplifiers, each with internally trimmed 2× gain and matched feedback networks referenced to dedicated ground pins (GND1–GND3) to maximize inter-channel isolation. Its A/B control pin simultaneously switches all three channels using TTL/CMOS-compatible logic thresholds (VIH = 2.0V, VIL = 0.8V).
It delivers 650V/µs slew rate and ±3.6V output swing into 500Ω, supporting full-scale video signal integrity. Channel-to-channel isolation exceeds 61dB at 10MHz and 50dB at 100MHz, while A-input-to-B-input isolation reaches −100dB at DC-enabling clean signal selection without feedthrough artifacts.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Bandwidth (−3dB) | 300MHz - supports full HD and beyond without high-frequency roll-off |
| Switching Time (A↔B) | 3ns - enables sub-pixel timing accuracy in synchronized video streams |
| Gain Accuracy | 1.94–2.06 V/V - ensures consistent signal level across RGB/YUV channels |
| Slew Rate | 650V/µs - preserves edge fidelity of fast-rising video sync pulses and pixel transitions |

| Operating Temp | −40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial and broadcast equipment environments |
Pinout & Package
EL4332CSZ is housed in a Pb-free 16-pin narrow SOIC (0.150") package (PKG DWG # MDP0027), with thermal resistance θJA = 110°C/W on JEDEC low-conductivity board.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A1, A2, A3 | Primary analog inputs per channel | Accept RGB or YUV signals; no internal protection - require external clamping if overvoltage risk exists |
| B1, B2, B3 | Secondary analog inputs per channel | Enable alternate source selection; identical electrical interface to A-inputs |
| Out1, Out2, Out3 | Amplified outputs (gain = 2) | Drive 75Ω or 50Ω loads directly; no short-circuit protection - external current limiting advised |
| GND1, GND2, GND3 | Dedicated channel ground returns | Minimize inter-channel coupling; must be tied together at single-point ground plane under IC |
| VCC (pins 14, 15) | Positive supply rail | Internally shorted; requires local 0.1µF ceramic + bulk 22µF tantalum bypassing |
| VEE (pin 13) | Negative supply rail | Single connection point for −5V; shares return path with all GND pins via ground plane |
| A/B (pin 16) | Common TTL/CMOS select control | Logic high selects A-inputs; logic low selects B-inputs; sinks ≤30µA at low state |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Triple simultaneous 2:1 switching | Ensures pixel-aligned RGB/YUV routing without skew - essential for color fidelity in multi-source displays |
| Fixed gain-of-2 architecture | Eliminates external gain resistors and matching errors, reducing BOM count and layout sensitivity |
| 650V/µs slew rate | Maintains <0.08° differential phase error at 3.58MHz - meets NTSC/PAL broadcast linearity requirements |
| −100dB input crosstalk (DC) | Prevents ghosting or bleed-through when switching between dissimilar video sources (e.g., SD vs HD) |
| Pb-free termination (matte tin) | Compatible with both SnPb and Pb-free reflow profiles; MSL-rated for standard SMT assembly |
Applications
| RGB Multiplexing | Picture-in-Picture (PiP) |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-speed analog multiplexer-amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| EL4332CS | Same die and pinout; SnPb terminations instead of matte tin Pb-free finish | Restricted to RoHS-exempt or legacy SnPb assembly processes | Select EL4332CS only if Pb-free compliance is not required and SnPb reflow is used. |
| MAX4352EEE+ | Triple 2:1 mux-amp with 200MHz bandwidth, 2.5ns switching, and 500V/µs slew rate; operates on single +5V supply | Lower bandwidth and slew rate; suited for non-broadcast video or lower-resolution imaging | Choose MAX4352EEE+ only when single-supply operation is mandatory and 300MHz bandwidth is not needed. |
Compared with EL4332CSZ, EL4332CS offers identical performance but lacks Pb-free qualification, while MAX4352EEE+ trades bandwidth and slew rate for single-supply convenience-making EL4332CSZ the optimal choice for broadcast-grade, dual-supply, high-fidelity video routing.

FAQ
What is the maximum load capacitance the EL4332CSZ can drive while maintaining stability?
The EL4332CSZ is characterized with CL = 3pF in AC specifications and maintains stability driving up to 5pF with proper PCB layout. Driving >5pF loads risks peaking or ringing due to interaction with its 650V/µs slew rate and internal compensation. For capacitive loads exceeding 3pF, add a small series resistor (10–22Ω) close to the output pin to dampen resonance. This behavior is confirmed in Figure 15 of the FN7163 datasheet.
Does the EL4332CSZ include internal short-circuit protection on its outputs?
No, the EL4332CSZ has no internal short-circuit protection on any output (Out1, Out2, or Out3), as explicitly stated in the Pin Descriptions section of the datasheet. Continuous output current is rated at 45mA maximum. External current-limiting resistors or foldback circuits are required in designs where output faults are possible, especially when driving long cables or unterminated loads.
Can the EL4332CSZ operate from a single +5V supply?
No, the EL4332CSZ requires dual ±5V supplies as specified in Absolute Maximum Ratings and all electrical test conditions. Its internal architecture relies on symmetric rail-to-rail headroom to achieve ±3.6V output swing into 500Ω and maintain 300MHz bandwidth. Operation from a single +5V supply is not supported and will result in severe clipping, reduced bandwidth, and potential damage due to violation of VEE-to-GND limits.
How does the EL4332CSZ handle correlated versus uncorrelated video signals across channels?
The EL4332CSZ uses separate ground pins (GND1–GND3) and isolated internal feedback paths to minimize supply-induced crosstalk between channels. When all three channels switch simultaneously with correlated signals (e.g., RGB from synchronous DACs), proper supply bypassing (0.1µF ceramic + 22µF tantalum) is critical to prevent shared supply noise from degrading isolation. Uncorrelated signals show no measurable coupling degradation beyond the specified −100dB DC crosstalk.
Is the EL4332CSZ pin-compatible with the EL4332CS variant?
Yes, the EL4332CSZ is fully pin-compatible with the EL4332CS: both share identical 16-pin SOIC (0.150") footprint, pin functions, electrical specifications, and thermal characteristics. The sole difference is the termination-EL4332CSZ uses matte tin Pb-free plating compliant with IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020B, while EL4332CS uses SnPb. No PCB layout change is required when substituting EL4332CSZ for EL4332CS.
