CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The GX4201 is a wideband 1x1 video crosspoint implemented
in bipolar monolithic technology. The device is characterized
by excellent differential gain and phase in the enabled
state, and very high off-isolation in the disabled state. The
fully buffered unilateral signal path ensures negligible output
to input feedback while delivering minimal output switching
transients through make-before-break switching.
For use in NxM routing matrices, the device features a very
high, nearly constant input impedance, coupled with very
high output impedance in the disabled state. This allows
multiple GX4201's to be paralleled at the input and output
without additional circuitry. An open collector PNP to V
CC
TALLY output provides indication of crosspoint selection.
To maximize system bandwidth, an external current source
is used to bias the output device of the crosspoint. One
external current source is required per output bus. For less
demanding applications, a load resistor can be used in
place of the output current source, causing a slight increase
in differential phase. Non-additive mixing will occur on the
output bus if more than one paralleled GX4201 is enabled
at a time.
The GX4201 is one of a series of wideband video crosspoints
utilizing Gennum's proprietary LSI process.
