Product details
Overview
MAX11508UUD+ from Maxim Integrated is a 3-channel, selectable-bandwidth video filter IC with integrated +6dB output buffers, designed for analog video signal conditioning in HD/PS/SD/BP modes. It delivers -3dB bandwidths of 9MHz (SD), 16MHz (PS), 33MHz (HD), and 60MHz (BP), supports AC/DC-coupled inputs and outputs, and operates from a single +5V supply. It is used in DVD players, HDTV front-ends, and STB receivers to replace discrete RC filters and coupling capacitors.
For engineers reviewing the MAX11508UUD+ datasheet, MAX11508UUD+ pinout, MAX11508UUD+ application, or MAX11508UUD+ equivalent, key selection criteria include its flat-passband response (vs. MAX11509's +0.8dB peaking), transparent input clamp compatibility with DAC outputs, shutdown current of 1µA, and TSSOP-14 package suitability for space-constrained video signal chains.
Technical Context
The MAX11508UUD+ implements three independent 6th-order lowpass filters with digitally selectable bandwidth via FSEL0/FSEL1 control pins, supporting four operating modes: SD (9MHz), PS (16MHz), HD (33MHz), and BP (60MHz). Each channel includes a +6dB gain buffer optimized for driving 150Ω video loads while maintaining blanking-level compliance (<1V after backmatch resistor).
Its transparent input clamp enables direct DC coupling from current-output DACs without external capacitors, while BIAS pin control activates internal bias networks for bipolar signals (Pb/Pr). Shutdown mode disables all channels and reduces quiescent current to 1µA, with outputs shorted to GND via 1.58kΩ resistors.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| -3dB Bandwidth (SD) | 9MHz - preserves full NTSC/PAL luminance/chroma content without aliasing |
| -3dB Bandwidth (HD) | 33MHz - supports 720p/1080i baseband YPbPr signals up to 30MHz video bandwidth |
| Output Gain | +6dB - provides 2VP-P swing into 150Ω load, eliminating need for external amplification |
| Supply Voltage | +5V (4.75V–5.25V) - compatible with standard digital video system rails, no dual-supply required |
| Shutdown Current | 1µA typical - enables power gating during standby without external switch circuitry |
| ESD Protection | ±12kV HBM on outputs - protects against handling and board-level ESD events in consumer assembly |
| Operating Temp | 0°C to +85°C - qualified for upper commercial temperature range in STB and DVR enclosures |
Pinout & Package
MAX11508UUD+ is housed in a lead-free, RoHS-compliant 14-pin TSSOP package (package code U14+1), with 0.65mm pitch and exposed pad not connected internally. Thermal performance supports continuous operation at +85°C ambient when PCB copper area is used for heat spreading.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 VCC | Power supply input | Single +5V rail for all three channels and logic; requires local 0.1µF + 1.0µF bypassing |
| 2 FSEL0 | Filter frequency select (LSB) | Combines with FSEL1 to set SD/PS/HD/BP mode per Table 1; CMOS-compatible logic input |
| 3 Y/G_IN | Channel 1 analog video input | Accepts Y (luma) or G (green) signal; features transparent clamp for AC/DC coupling |
| 4 Pb/B_IN | Channel 2 analog video input | Accepts Pb (blue difference) or B (blue); bias network enabled when BIAS = low |
| 5 Pr/R_IN | Channel 3 analog video input | Accepts Pr (red difference) or R (red); same bias control as Pb/B_IN |
| 6 BIAS | Bias network enable | Low = enables internal ~0.59V DC bias for bipolar Pb/Pr inputs; high = enables clamp |
| 7,14 N.C. | No connection | Not bonded; must be left floating or tied to GND for mechanical stability only |
| 8 GND | Analog/digital ground reference | Common return for all channels and logic; requires low-impedance PCB plane |
| 9 SHDN | Shutdown control input | Active-low; forces outputs to GND via 1.58kΩ and reduces ICC to 1µA |
| 10 Pr/R_OUT | Channel 3 buffered video output | +6dB gain, drives 150Ω load directly; blanking level <1V after 75Ω backmatch |
| 11 Pb/B_OUT | Channel 2 buffered video output | Same drive capability and DC offset (VOUT = 2×VIN + 0.55V) as Pr/R_OUT |
| 12 Y/G_OUT | Channel 1 buffered video output | Delivers full 2VP-P into 150Ω; offset ensures sync tip compliance with digital TV standards |
| 13 FSEL1 | Filter frequency select (MSB) | MSB of 2-bit filter mode selector; synchronous with FSEL0 for glitch-free mode switching |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 3-channel video filter applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX11509UUD+ | +0.8dB peaking at 5/8.5/20MHz in SD/PS/HD modes; identical pinout, package, and control interface | Better compensates for DAC high-frequency rolloff in systems lacking external equalization | Select MAX11509UUD+ only if system-level measurements confirm DAC rolloff requires peaking compensation |
| AD8175ARUZ | 3-channel, 300MHz fixed-gain video driver (no filtering); no FSEL/BIAS logic; higher supply current (36mA) | Suitable for bypass-only or post-filter amplification, not for selectable-bandwidth filtering | Use AD8175ARUZ when bandwidth >60MHz is required or when filtering is handled upstream |
Compared with MAX11509UUD+, the MAX11508UUD+ offers superior passband flatness for systems with well-compensated DACs; compared with AD8175ARUZ, it integrates selectable filtering and bias control but trades off maximum bandwidth for application-specific optimization.

FAQ
What video standards does the MAX11508UUD+ support in SD mode?
The MAX11508UUD+ supports NTSC and PAL composite video standards in SD mode, delivering 9MHz (-3dB) bandwidth, 0.7% differential gain error, and 0.7° differential phase error-meeting broadcast-quality requirements for legacy analog video interfaces. Its transparent clamp ensures correct sync-tip restoration regardless of source coupling method.
Can the MAX11508UUD+ drive 75Ω video loads directly?
Yes, the MAX11508UUD+ output buffers are designed to drive 150Ω loads (75Ω backmatch + 75Ω termination), producing a full 2VP-P signal. When used with a standard 75Ω series backmatch resistor and 75Ω downstream termination, the MAX11508UUD+ meets SMPTE/ITU-R BT.601 timing and level specifications without additional amplification or AC-coupling.
How does the BIAS pin affect input signal handling on the MAX11508UUD+?
When BIAS = low, internal bias networks activate on Pb/B_IN and Pr/R_IN pins, applying ~0.59V DC offset to enable reliable AC-coupling of bipolar C/Pb/Pr signals. When BIAS = high, the transparent clamp engages instead-ideal for unipolar Y/G/R/B/CVBS signals. This dual-mode flexibility eliminates external bias components.
Is the MAX11508UUD+ pin-compatible with the MAX11509UUD+?
Yes, the MAX11508UUD+ and MAX11509UUD+ share identical pinout, package (14-pin TSSOP), supply voltage, control interface (FSEL0/FSEL1/SHDN/BIAS), and output drive capability. The only functional difference is the passband response: MAX11508UUD+ has flat response, while MAX11509UUD+ adds +0.8dB peaking to compensate DAC rolloff.
What is the purpose of the transparent clamp in the MAX11508UUD+ inputs?
The transparent clamp in the MAX11508UUD+ inputs automatically engages only when the input signal goes below ground (e.g., AC-coupled CVBS), setting the sync tip near 0V. During DC-coupled operation (e.g., from current-output DACs), the clamp remains inactive-preserving true DC accuracy and eliminating need for external clamping diodes or capacitors.
