MAX9526AEI/V+T

Encoders, Decoders, Converters Overview

The MAX9526AEI/V+T is a low-power, high-performance NTSC/PAL video decoder manufactured by Analog Devices Inc./Maxim Integrated. It converts composite video signals to 8-bit or 10-bit YCbCr component video compliant with ITU-R BT.656. The device features an internal 10-bit, 54Msps ADC with four times oversampling and operates on a single +1.8V supply for analog and digital cores, while the digital I/O accepts +1.7V to +3.45V. It supports automotive temperature ranges from -40°C to +125°C and utilizes a 28-pin QSOP package.

Encoders, Decoders, Converters Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix /V+T against official documentation to confirm automotive qualification and tape-and-reel packaging status. Confirm current availability as discontinued parts may require alternative sourcing strategies. Ensure compatibility with existing system voltage levels and interface requirements before procurement.

Encoders, Decoders, Converters Selection Notes

Select this component when automotive-grade reliability and wide operating temperature are required. Verify that the 28-pin QSOP package fits the PCB layout constraints. Ensure the host processor supports the I2C interface for register configuration and can handle the ITU-R BT.656 output format.

Encoders, Decoders, Converters Part Context

The MAX9526 series includes variants like the MAX9526AEI+ and MAX9526ATJ+. The AEI variant uses a 28-pin QSOP package, while the ATJ uses a 32-pin TQFN. The /V suffix denotes automotive qualification. The MAX9526EVKIT+ serves as an evaluation tool for these devices.
