The FMS6502 is an 8-input, 6-output video switch matrix for use in consumer and industrial video applications such as in-car entertainment systems, HDTVs and flat-panel displays.

Fairchild Semiconductor has introduced the FMS6502, an 8-input, 6-output video switch matrix that offers cost effectiveness and space savings in consumer and industrial video applications such as automotive in-cabin entertainment systems, HDTVs, flat panel displays and Audio/Video receivers The FMS6502 offers more functions than comparable crosspoint video switch matrices by integrating analogue switch capability, input clamps, bias circuitry and cable drivers into a single device

Consuming approximately half the board space of discrete solutions, the FMS6502 dramatically reduces part count while simplifying designs.

The second-generation FMS6502 offers the same high level of integration as Fairchild's previous-generation video switch matrix technology while providing enhanced flexibility.

"Fairchild's FMS6502 eight-by-six video switch matrix is the most highly integrated switching solution on the market and is tailored to fit designers' specific configuration needs and cost targets", says Bill Boldt, Fairchild's Senior Marketing Manager for Signal Path Products.

"The new FMS6502 builds upon Fairchild's popular, previously released FMS6501 twelve-by-nine matrix by offering a cost-effective solution for applications where fewer inputs and outputs are desirable".

"The FMS6502 reinforces our leadership position in providing low cost, highly integrated video products".

The FMS6502 is available in a compact TSSOP-24 lead (Pb)-free package that meets or exceeds the requirements of the joint IPC/JEDEC standard J-STD-020C and is compliant with European Union regulations now in effect.
