User Manual

General Description
The MAX7461 single-channel loss-of-sync alarm (LOS)
provides composite video sync detection in NTSC,
PAL, and SECAM standard-definition television (SDTV)
systems. The MAX7461’s advanced detection circuitry
delivers robust performance by preventing false loss-
of-sync alarms due to noise. The device accepts an
AC-coupled composite (CVBS), luma (Y), or any other
video signal with sync, and outputs a logic-level signal.
The open-drain LOS output is low when no sync is
detected and high impedance when sync is detected.
The device operates from a single +5V supply.
The MAX7461 is available in a 5-pin SOT23 package
and is specified for operation over the -40°C to +85°C
temperature range.
