CRT8002H

Video Processing Overview

The CRT8002H is a video processing integrated circuit manufactured by Standard Microsystems Corporation (SMSC). It functions as a CRT video attribute controller and generator, designed for managing display attributes in cathode ray tube systems. The component utilizes MOS technology and is housed in a plastic epoxy DIP package with 28 through-hole terminals arranged in a dual inline configuration. It operates within a commercial temperature range of -40 °C to 70 °C. The device is not RoHS compliant and features a tin/lead terminal finish.

Video Processing Feature Summary

• Serves as a dedicated controller and generator for CRT video attributes
• Utilizes MOS technology for signal processing
• Designed for commercial temperature operation environments

Video Processing Applications

• CRT video attribute control systems
• Display generation circuits
• Legacy video processing hardware

Video Processing Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix variant required, as SMSC offers multiple versions such as CRT8002B-003P and CRT8002A-003P which may differ in pinout or functionality. Confirm that the non-RoHS status aligns with project regulatory requirements. Ensure the PDIP28 package compatibility matches the target PCB footprint. Check for obsolescence status given the manufacturer's acquisition history.

Video Processing Selection Notes

Select this component when a dedicated hardware solution for CRT attribute generation is required. Compare against similar SMSC video controllers like the CRT9021AP if different interface capabilities are needed. Ensure the design supports the necessary voltage levels and timing specifications inherent to MOS-based video logic. Verify that the thermal dissipation characteristics of the DIP package suit the enclosure constraints.

Video Processing Part Context

Standard Microsystems Corporation was a leading developer of smart mixed-signal connectivity solutions before being acquired by Microchip Technology. The CRT series represents their legacy video processing portfolio, specifically targeting CRT monitor and display controller applications. This part belongs to a family of specialized video logic ICs used in industrial and commercial display equipment prior to the widespread adoption of flat-panel technologies.
