DESCRIPTION
The GB4600 is a high performance, monolithic unity gain
video buffer made on Gennum's proprietary LSI process.
The device features a stable wideband topology capable
of driving high capacitance video busses.
Optimal system power/bandwidth can be achieved by
using the high/low current mode select (I-SET). In addition,
the GB4600 can be disabled by taking the ENABLE pin to
ground. The ENABLE input is TTL and 5 V CMOS compatible.
The GB4600 operates from
±
4.5 to
±
5.5 V power supplies
and typically draws 30 mA of current when
I
-SET is not
connected. The supply current drops by approximately
50% when
I
-SET is directly connected to V
EE
.
A typical application for the GB4600 is interfacing Gennum's
wide range of video crosspoint switches. The 8 pin SOIC
packaging is ideally suited for space restricted board
layouts.
