AD724JRZ-RL

Overview

The AD724JRZ-RL is a three-channel video encoder manufactured by Analog Devices Inc., designed for RGB to NTSC/PAL conversion. It operates on a single 5 V supply with a typical current consumption of 33 mA and supports a bandwidth of 5 MHz. The device dissipates up to 800 mW and functions within a commercial temperature range of 0°C to +70°C. Packaged in a 16-lead SOIC (SOIC-16) surface-mount format, it is supplied in reels of 1000 units. This component belongs to the AD724 series and utilizes the AD724-EBZ development kit.

Feature Summary

• Integrates three independent video channels for simultaneous signal processing
• Converts RGB input signals directly into standard NTSC or PAL composite formats
• Supports surface-mount installation via a compact 16-lead SOIC package

Applications

• RGB to composite video encoding systems
• NTSC and PAL signal generation circuits
• Video interface modules requiring integrated color encoding

Procurement Notes

This component is designated as End-of-Life (EOL). A discontinuation notification indicates that manufacturing will cease by July 29, 2026. Availability is currently restricted, and distributors may not stock this item. Engineers should verify final availability through official channels before committing to designs requiring long-term supply.

Selection Notes

Designers must account for the limited operational temperature range of 0°C to +70°C, which restricts usage to commercial environments. The requirement for a single 5 V power supply simplifies power management but limits compatibility with lower voltage logic families without level shifting. Verify pinout compatibility if replacing older variants within the AD724 family.

Part Context

The AD724JRZ-RL is part of the AD724 product line from Analog Devices Inc., specifically categorized under Video ICs. It serves as a specialized encoder for converting parallel RGB data streams into broadcast-standard composite video signals. The suffix 'RL' denotes reel packaging, while 'JRZ' specifies the industrial/commercial temperature grade and SOIC package type.

Replacement Considerations

As an End-of-Life product, direct substitutes are not officially confirmed in public documentation. Designers should evaluate newer video encoder models from Analog Devices or other manufacturers that offer extended temperature ranges and active production status.
