Linear - Video Processing

1. Overview

Linear video processing ICs are analog integrated circuits designed to process continuous video signals without digitization. They perform functions like amplification, filtering, and signal conditioning while maintaining signal integrity. These components are critical in applications requiring real-time video processing with minimal latency, forming the backbone of analog video systems in broadcast, surveillance, and industrial equipment.

2. Main Types and Functional Classification

Type	Functional Characteristics	Application Examples
Video Amplifiers	High-bandwidth amplification with impedance matching	Camera signal boosting, distribution amplifiers
Active Filters	Frequency-selective signal conditioning	Noise reduction in medical imaging
ADC/DAC Converters	Analog-digital signal conversion with linear response	Hybrid video systems, digital signage
Synchronization Processors	Timing signal generation and separation	Broadcast equipment, test instruments

3. Structure and Composition

Typical linear video ICs feature:

Multi-layer semiconductor substrate with precision analog circuits
Integrated operational amplifiers with controlled gain-bandwidth product
On-chip passive components (resistors, capacitors) for filtering
Differential input/output stages for noise rejection
Standard packages: TSSOP, QFN, or BGA for high-frequency applications
