Key Technical Specifications | Parameter | Specification | | :--- | :--- | | **Function** | 16 x 1 Differential Crosspoint Switch / Multiplexer | | **Bandwidth (-3 dB)** | 850 MHz | | **Slew Rate** | 2400 V/µs | | **Settling Time** | 4.5 ns (to 0.1%) | | **Differential Gain Error** | 0.02% | | **Differential Phase Error** | 0.02° | | **Package Type** | SOIC-16 (Small Outline Integrated Circuit) | | **Voltage Supply** | ±5V Dual Supply | --- ### 2. Functional Features The ADV3222 is engineered for signal integrity. Below are its primary functional characteristics: * **Fully Differential Path:** The device manages differential signals, which significantly reduces electromagnetic interference (EMI) and improves noise immunity. * **High Impedance State:** The output can be set to a high-impedance state, allowing multiple chips to be connected in parallel to create larger crosspoint arrays (e.g., 32 x 1 or 16 x 2). * **Low Crosstalk:** Excellent isolation between channels (typically -60 dB at 100 MHz) ensures that signals do not bleed into adjacent paths. * **Input/Output Buffering:** It includes internal buffers that prevent signal degradation, ensuring the output matches the input fidelity even at high frequencies. --- ### 3. Pin Configuration & Logic Control The device is controlled via a parallel interface, allowing for rapid switching between any of the 16 input pairs to the single output pair. ```c // Example logic representation for channel selection // A0, A1, A2, A3 are the address pins void select_channel(int channel_index) { digitalWrite(A0, (channel_index >> 0) & 0x01); digitalWrite(A1, (channel_index >> 1) & 0x01); digitalWrite(A2, (channel_index >> 2) & 0x01); digitalWrite(A3, (channel_index >> 3) & 0x01); // Pulse the 'Enable' or 'Latch' pin if applicable } ``` --- ### 4. Common Applications * **Professional Video:** Routing high-definition video signals (RGB, Component, S-Video) in broadcast studios. * **KVM Switches:** Managing high-resolution keyboard-video-mouse signals. * **Test Equipment:** High-speed signal routing in oscilloscopes and automated test equipment (ATE). * **Data Communications:** Handling high-speed differential data streams in networking infrastructure. --- ### 5. Part Number Suffix Breakdown (ARZ-R7) * **A:** Temperature range (Standard industrial). * **R:** Package type (SOIC). * **Z:** RoHS compliant (Lead-free). * **R7:** Indicates 7-inch Tape and Reel packaging for automated assembly.
