Low-Power Audio/Video Switch for
Dual SCART Connectors
General Description
The MAX9598 dual SCART matrix routes audio and video
signals between a set-top box decoder chip and two
external SCART connectors under I
2
C control. Operating
from a 3.3V supply and a 12V supply, the MAX9598 con-
sumes 70mW during quiescent operation and 471mW
during average operation when driving typical signals into
typical loads. Video input detection, video load detection,
and a 1.7mW low-power mode facilitate the design of low-
power set-top boxes.
The MAX9598 audio section contains a buffered cross-
point to route audio inputs to audio outputs. The
DirectDrive
®
output amplifiers create a 2V
RMS
full-scale
audio signal biased around ground, eliminating the
need for bulky output capacitors and reducing click-
and-pop noise. The zero-cross detection circuitry also
further reduces clicks and pops by enabling audio
sources to switch only during a zero-crossing.
The MAX9598 video section contains a buffered cross-
point to route video inputs to video outputs. The standard-
definition video signals from the set-top box decoder chip
are lowpass filtered to remove out-of-bandwidth artifacts.
The MAX9598 also supports slow-switching and fast-switch-
ing signals. An interrupt signal from the MAX9598 informs the
microcontroller (µC) when the system status has changed.
The MAX9598 is available in a compact 40-pin thin QFN
package and is specified over the 0°C to +70°C commer-
cial temperature range.

Stresses beyond those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and functional
operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated in the operational sections of the specifications is not implied. Exposure to
absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
