FMS6690MTC20X

Video Processing Overview

The FMS6690MTC20X is a high-integration video filter and driver component manufactured by Fairchild Semiconductor. It features six channels with selectable filtering capabilities for standard definition (SD), progressive scan (PS), and high definition (HD) video signals. The device integrates input clamping, fixed gain output drivers, and AC/DC coupling options within a single package to replace discrete LC filters and amplifiers.

Video Processing Feature Summary

• Integrates SD, PS, and HD filtering flexibility in a compact surface-mount package
• Includes input clamping and fixed gain output drivers to simplify circuit design
• Provides AC or DC coupling options to reduce board space requirements
• Offers high ESD protection to eliminate the need for external diodes

Video Processing Applications

• High-definition television (HDTV) systems
• Digital set-top box designs
• DVD player applications
• General consumer video products requiring signal conditioning

Video Processing Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'MTC20X' against official Fairchild documentation to confirm pinout and electrical specifications match your schematic. Ensure the selected package variant aligns with your PCB footprint constraints. Cross-reference RoHS compliance status if required by your manufacturing standards. Confirm availability through authorized distributors as lead times may vary.

Video Processing Selection Notes

Select this component when system design requires integrated filtering and driving for multiple video channels without using discrete components. It is suitable for designs needing flexible frequency response selection between SD, PS, and HD standards. Consider its integration level compared to separate filters and amplifiers to evaluate board space savings and performance consistency across all channels.

Video Processing Part Context

This part belongs to Fairchild's video filter/driver series designed for consumer electronics. It consolidates functions typically handled by multiple discrete passive and active components into a single integrated circuit. This approach aims to improve signal path reliability and reduce overall system cost and complexity for video processing applications.

Video Processing Replacement Considerations

Check for direct substitutes within the same Fairchild family, such as the FMS6246 or FMS6346, which offer different combinations of SD, PS, and HD filtering options. Verify that the replacement part meets the specific channel count and voltage requirements of the original design.
