MAX9501EEE+

Overview

The MAX9501EEE+ is a triple-channel high-definition video filter amplifier manufactured by Analog Devices Inc. under the Maxim Integrated brand. It integrates three independent low-pass filters with unity-gain buffers, designed for HDTV signal processing applications. The device operates within a supply voltage range of 2.7V to 3.6V and features a typical supply current of 12mA per channel. Packaged in a 16-pin QSOP (16-QSOP) surface-mount enclosure, it supports an operating temperature range from -40°C to +85°C. Key electrical characteristics include a cutoff frequency of 30MHz and a sixth-order filter response, providing significant attenuation at higher frequencies to prevent aliasing in digital video systems.

Feature Summary

• Integrates three independent active low-pass filters with built-in unity-gain buffers for simultaneous multi-channel video processing
• Provides high attenuation performance suitable for anti-aliasing in analog-to-digital conversion stages
• Supports single-supply operation with low power consumption for portable and battery-powered devices

Applications

• High-definition television (HDTV) analog input anti-aliasing filters
• Video output reconstruction filters in set-top boxes and DVD players
• Satellite and cable receiver video signal conditioning

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix EEE+ against the manufacturer's official datasheet to confirm pinout compatibility and RoHS compliance status. Ensure the procurement source provides valid traceability documentation. Check for any recent product change notices or lifecycle status updates from Analog Devices prior to ordering.

Selection Notes

Select this component when designing circuits requiring triple-channel filtering for composite or component video signals. Compare specifications such as cutoff frequency and stopband attenuation against alternative parts like the MAX9500 if dual-channel requirements suffice. Verify that the 16-QSOP package fits the available PCB footprint and thermal constraints.

Part Context

The MAX9501EEE+ belongs to the MAX9500 family of video filter amplifiers introduced by Maxim Integrated. This series was developed to address the growing demand for integrated filtering solutions in HD video equipment. It complements other video ICs in the portfolio by offering a compact, multi-channel solution compared to discrete filter designs.

Replacement Considerations

Publicly confirmed substitute part numbers are not provided in the available documentation. Engineers should consult the manufacturer's official replacement guide or contact technical support directly for qualified alternatives.
