Video Switch Circuit

This is a video switching circuit. This circuit will provide a dedicated monitor for every installed camera is not efficient, and your CRT monitor might suffer phosphor burn if it used to display static image from only one camera. To display 1, 2, 3, or 4 cameras in one monitor, you need a video switcher circuit. This is the figure of the circuit.


The core of this video switcher is MAX454 video multiplexer-amplifier from MAXIM. Care must be taken when designing the video signal path around this chip. Ground plane or track can be inserted between video signal channels to prevent crosstalk and noise interference. Using socket for IC is bad idea, if you should solder the chip directly to the PCB. You can see a CD4017 sequencer driving the channel indicators (LED1-LED4). The output of this sequencer is not only drives the indicators, but also decoded to 2 bit binary data by D1…D4 to address the MAX454 multiplexer.
