Description
The TSH345 is a triple single-supply video buffer
featuring an internal gain of 6 dB and selectable
filtering for HD and SD video outputs on 75 Ω
video lines. The TSH345 is ideal to drive YC,
CVBS, YUV, YPbPr or RGB signals from video
DAC outputs.
The main advantage of this circuit is its input DC
level shifter. It allows driving video signals on 75 Ω
video lines without damaging the synchronization
tip and without input or output capacitors when
using a single 5 V power supply. The DC level
shifter is internally fixed and optimized to keep the
output video signals between low and high output
rails in the best position for the greatest linearity.
The TSH345 is available in SO-14 and TSSOP-14
plastic packages for optimum space saving.
