  • Product Details

    The MAX7450 evaluation kit (EV kit) is a fully assembled and tested surface-mount circuit board that contains a MAX7450. The MAX7450 is a low-cost, high-performance, complete front-end video-signal conditioner with automatic gain control (AGC) and a back-porch clamp to GND. The device includes an out-of-band noise filter, blank-level clamp, loss-of-sync (LOS) detector, ±6dB of AGC, and an output buffer capable of driving either a 150Ω video load or a high-impedance load. These features optimize the video-signal quality for further video processing through a crosspoint device or video decoder.

    The MAX7450 EV kit can also evaluate the MAX7451. The EV kit operates from a dual ±5V power supply for the MAX7450 or ±3V power supply for the MAX7451.
