between Channel A, Channel B, and
EXT REF.
Loop-through isolation Greater than 70 dB of isolation be-
tween loop-throughs. Measured at F
SC
between Channel A, Channel B, and
EXT REF.
Input requirements Stable display with composite video, or
black burst with 286 mV (300 mV PAL)
burst ±6 dB.

DC input impedance (unterminated) Greater than 15 kΩ
EXT REF input Composite video (can be CW subcarr-
ier if two internal jumpers are moved).
Absolute maximum input voltage ±12 VDC plus peak AC
Maximum operating input voltage Peak AC + DC should be within
+8.0 V and –5.6 V for proper operation.
