The ADV7626 is a high performance, High-Definition Multi-media Interface (HDMI^®) transceiver with cross-point and splitter capabilities. The ADV7626 supports 3 GHz video and features two independent HDMI receivers, two independent HDMI transmitters, two audio output ports, and two audio input ports. The ADV7626 supports all HDCP repeater functions through fully tested Analog Devices, Inc., repeater software libraries and drivers.

The HDMI receivers and transmitters in the ADV7626 support the reception and transmission of 3 GHz video formats up to 4k × 2k at 24 Hz/25 Hz/30 Hz, in addition to all mandatory HDMI 3D TV formats. The receivers and transmitters also provide support for THX^® Media Director^™.

Each HDMI receiver features an integrated equalizer that ensures robust operation of the interface with cable lengths up to 30 meters. The HDMI receivers share a 768-byte volatile extended display identification data (EDID) memory, which can facilitate one or two EDIDs, one for each receiver. Each HDMI port features dedicated 5 V detect and Hot Plug™ assert pins.

Each HDMI transmitter supports audio return channel (ARC) and features an integrated HDMI CEC controller that supports capability discovery and control (CDC).

The ADV7626 offers two dedicated audio output ports and two dedicated audio input ports. Each audio port supports the extraction and insertion of up to eight channels of audio data out of or into the HDMI streams. HDMI audio formats, including I²S, S/PDIF, direct stream digital (DSD), and high bit rate (HBR) audio are supported.

The ADV7626 has an integrated on-screen display (OSD) generator that enables the creation and control of high quality character- and icon-based system status and control displays. The OSD can be overlaid on 3 GHz video formats and 3D video. Customers who are interested in using OSD are provided with Blimp, the Analog Devices OSD development tool.

The ADV7626 is provided in a space-saving, 260-ball, 15 mm × 15 mm CSP_BGA surface-mount, RoHS-compliant package and is specified over the 0°C to 70°C temperature range.
