MAX7443 Evaluation Kit
General Description
The MAX7443 evaluation kit (EV kit) evaluates the
MAX7443, a low-cost triple-channel video reconstruction
filter for composite and S-video applications. The EV kit
operates from a single 5V supply. The MAX7443 EV kit
can also be used to evaluate the MAX7444, a similar
device with a high-frequency boost option.

Quick Start
Recommended equipment
Before beginning, the following equipment is needed:
• Single 5V DC power supply
• Video signal generator (e.g., Tektronix TG 2000)
• Video measurement equipment (e.g., Tektronix
VM 700A)

Procedure
The MAX7443 EV kit is a fully assembled and tested
surface-mount board. Utilize the following steps to veri-
fy the board operation.
Caution: Do not turn on the
power supply until all connections are completed:
1) Verify that there are shunts installed on JU1 and
JU3 (pins 1-2) and JU2 (pins 2-3).
2) Verify that there are shunts across jumpers JU4 and
JU5.
3) Connect the luma output from the video signal
generator to the YIN BNC connector on the EV kit.
4) Connect the chroma output from the video signal
generator to the CIN BNC connector on the EV kit.
5) Connect the input of the video measurement equip-
ment to the YOUT, COUT, or CVOUT BNC connec-
tors on the EV kit.

6) Connect the 5V supply to the PCB pad labeled
VCC. Connect the pad labeled GND to the ground
of the power supply.
7) Set the signal generator for the desired video sig-
nal, such as multiburst.
8) Turn on the 5V DC power supply.
9) Analyze any of the output signals with the VM700A
video measurement.
for selecting the input from either a video generator or a
DAC (encoder). When interfacing to a video DAC or
encoder output, the 200Ω termination resistor is provid-
ed on the board and selected by changing jumpers
JU1 and JU3. A typical DAC termination resistor is
200Ω. If the full-scale DAC output current is different
than
≈5mA,
change the 200Ω resistor accordingly to
get 1V at the input of the MAX7443.
The MAX7443 EV kit incorporates jumper JU2 to
control the gain setting. Table 2 lists the JU2 functions.
Detailed Description
Jumper Selection
The MAX7443 EV kit provides options for evaluation
with a video signal generator output or a current output
video DAC (encoder). Table 1 lists the jumper settings
Evaluating MAX7444
The MAX7443 EV kit can be also used to evaluate the
MAX7444. To evaluate the MAX7444, replace the
MAX7443ESA+ with a MAX7444ESA+.
