BU16006KV-E2

Video Processing Overview

The BU16006KV-E2 is an HDMI switch IC manufactured by ROHM Semiconductor. It supports a signaling rate of up to 2.25 Gbps, compatible with HDMI 1.3a standards and resolutions including 480i/p, 720p, and 1080i/p at 12-bit color depth. The device features a 2-input to 1-output configuration with integrated active DDC buffers and switchable 50 Ω termination resistors. It operates on a fixed 3.3V supply (range 3V to 3.6V) and includes an equalizer circuit for long cable adaptation. The component provides HBM ESD protection exceeding 10kV and offers 5V tolerance on all DDC and HPD_SINK inputs.

Video Processing Feature Summary

• Supports high-speed TMDS signaling up to 2.25 Gbps for various video resolutions.
• Integrates switchable 50 Ω termination resistors that disconnect when channels are inactive.
• Includes an active DDC buffer to isolate capacitance and manage Display Data Channel communication.
• Features an internal equalizer circuit designed to compensate for signal degradation over long cables.

Video Processing Applications

• Digital televisions
• Audio Video Receivers (AVR)
• Digital projectors
• DVI or HDMI switch boxes

Video Processing Procurement Notes

Verify the current lifecycle status before design finalization, as this specific part number may be discontinued. Confirm that the VQFP-48 package and tape-and-reel packaging align with your assembly capabilities. Ensure the 3.3V power supply constraints and thermal dissipation requirements fit within your system's operational envelope.

Video Processing Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring a simple 2-to-1 HDMI switching solution controlled via GPIO. It is suitable for systems needing integrated impedance matching and DDC buffering without external discrete components. Consider the fixed 3.3V supply requirement and ensure compatibility with HDMI 1.3a source devices.

Video Processing Part Context

This device belongs to the BU160xxKV series of HDMI Switch ICs from ROHM Semiconductor. It shares architectural similarities with models like the BU16018KV and BU16027KV but differs in input/output channel count and pinout. The series is designed for general-purpose video switching with low control complexity.
