ABSTRACT:
A high-speed video switch uses a current-mode switch to switch between a first input video signal and a second input video signal. Each of the first and second input video signals are input to the video switch through clamping circuits which clamp a blank level of the input video signals to a predetermined constant level. Preferably, the blank level of the first and second input video signals are clamped to two volts. An output signal is output by the video switch which represents one of the input video signals. The video switch receives two control signals from the video system. The two control signals control which one of the input video signals is represented by the output signal. A back-to-back diode configured isolation circuit is used to isolate the one of the two input video signals which is not represented by the output signal.
