Description

The AD724 is a complete RGB to S-Video converter on a chip, requiring just a few minor external components.


Building Your Own RGB To Composite Converter

The AD724 is only available in an SMD package. You can choose to make the entire PCB in SMD or use standard parts for the external components.

Schematic

The following schematics are confirgured for PAL TVs. If you are in an area where NTSC is in use, please see the note below regarding pinout changes.


Resources

The following files are the PCB and component position layouts to construct the circuit above:

(Files to be uploaded)


NTSC

Pin 1 of the AD724 selects whether the output is in PAL or NTSC format. In the schematics and layouts above, pin 1 is grounded to select PAL, should you require NTSC, this pin needs to be disconnected from the ground and connected to a 5V signal.
