FMS6363CSX

Overview

The FMS6363CSX is a low-cost integrated video filter driver manufactured by onsemi, formerly Fairchild Semiconductor. It features three sixth-order filters with a 30MHz bandwidth designed for high-definition video applications. The device operates on a single 5V supply (4.75 V to 5.25 V) and draws 30 mA of current. It provides robust 8kV ESD protection and supports AC or DC-coupled inputs and outputs. The component is housed in an SOIC-8 surface-mount package.

Feature Summary

• Integrates three sixth-order 30MHz filters to replace passive LC components
• Supports transparent input clamping for signal integrity
• Enables elimination of AC-coupling capacitors via DC-coupled output capability
• Provides robust 8kV ESD protection for reliable operation

Applications

• High-definition video filtering and driving circuits
• Consumer electronics requiring low-cost video signal processing
• Systems replacing discrete passive LC filters and drivers

Procurement Notes

Verify the manufacturer status carefully as this part may be obsolete or end-of-life. Confirm if the current supplier is onsemi or another entity holding legacy rights. Ensure the SOIC-8 package and pinout match your design requirements. Check for RoHS compliance documentation specific to the production batch. Validate that the 5V single-supply operation fits your system power architecture.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a low-cost solution for HD video filtering is required. It is suitable for designs needing three independent filter channels in a compact SOIC-8 package. Consider its 30MHz bandwidth for high-definition signals. Verify compatibility with AC or DC coupling needs to potentially remove external capacitors. Ensure the 5V supply voltage aligns with the target system constraints.

Part Context

The FMS6363 series belongs to the family of low-cost video filter drivers originally developed by Fairchild Semiconductor and later continued by onsemi. These devices are designed to simplify video signal conditioning by integrating multiple filter stages into a single IC. The series targets consumer electronics where space and cost efficiency are critical for high-definition video processing.

Replacement Considerations

Check for direct cross-reference from onsemi datasheets. Verify pin-to-pin compatibility with existing PCB layouts. Confirm electrical parameter equivalence for bandwidth and drive strength.
