APPENDIX 7—OPTIONAL OUTPUT FILTER
If an output filter is required for the CVBS, Y, UV, Chroma, and
RGB outputs of the ADV7170/ADV7171, the filter shown in
Figure 79 can be used. Plots of the filter characteristics are
shown in Figure 80. An output filter is not required if the
outputs of the ADV7170/ADV7171 are connected to most
analog monitors or analog TVs. However, if the output signals
are applied to a system where sampling is used (for example,
digital TVs), then a filter is required to prevent aliasing.

APPENDIX 8—OPTIONAL DAC BUFFERING
When external buffering of the ADV7170/ADV7171 DAC
outputs is needed, the configuration in Figure 81 is recom-
mended. This configuration shows the DAC outputs running
at half (18 mA) their full current (36 mA) capability. This allows
the ADV7170/ADV7171 to dissipate less power; the analog
current is reduced by 50% with a R
SET
of 300 Ω and a R
LOAD
of
75 Ω. This mode is recommended for 3.3 V operation, because
optimum performance is obtained from the DAC outputs at
18 mA with a V
AA
of 3.3 V. This buffer also adds extra isolation
on the video outputs (see the buffer circuit in Figure 82).
When calculating absolute output full-scale current and voltage,
use the following equations:
