This FAQ relates to the ADV7182, ADV7280, ADV7280-M, ADV7281, ADV7281-M, ADV7281-MA, ADV7282, ADV7282-M and ADV7283 video decoders. These video decoders will be referred to as ADV7182/728x in this FAQ.
Under certain circumstances users of the ADV7182/728x may wish to switch from one analog input to another quickly. This is particular true in automotive applications where the demand to switch inputs in 'a blink of an eye' (i.e. approximately 250 ms) is usual.
Using standard scripts it may sometimes take the ADV7182/728x longer than 250 ms to switch from one (single ended or differential) CVBS input to another (single ended or differential) CVBS input. For this reason fast switch scripts were created.
Fast switch mode allows the ADV7182/728x video decoders to lock to single-ended CVBS or differential CVBS video in under 250 ms.
There are some drawbacks to using the fast switch script:
1) In fast switch mode the ADV7182/728x is not robust to Macrovision (Rovi) signals.
2) In fast switch mode the ADV7182/728x is not robust to poor and non-standard video sources.
3) Analog Devices does NOT advise any deviation from the advised fast switch scripts. Deviation from these devised fast switch scripts may introduce uncertainty.
It should be noted that Autodetect still works in fast switch mode for the ADV7182/728x.. However only NTSC M/J, NTSC 4.43 and PAL I/B/G/D can be detected. If a different video standard is used then the user must manually program it using the VID_SEL bits (User Map, Register 0x02 btis [7:4]).
Note that an extra I2C write is needed to enable manual luma gain when in fast swithc mode. See here for more informaiton. Manual Luma Gain in Fast Switch Mode ADV728x
The fast switch mode scripts are within the script files which are available at the design support files websites. See links below.

Hi Tomoto-san,
https://ez.analog.com/docs/DOC-10661
The Fast Switch mode operates differently in the ADV7180 compared to the newer ADV7182/ADV728x models. The above link describes the Fast Switch feature for the ADV7182/ADV728x models.
Main difference is that some autodect features are still available in Fast Switch mode for the ADV7182/ADV728x models.
Regards,
Robert Hinchy
Hello
I'm wondering ADV7182/728x are successor product pf former released ADV7180, and below thread is also applicable to ADV7182/728x?
https://ez.analog.com/docs/DOC-2643
Paragraph 4th of ADV7182/728x(this thread) looks slightly diffrent from 3rd of ADV7180.
Could you explain the background if you intended to chose diffrent word?
"to lock to..." sounds like it takes another time against the 250ms from application view point.
This allows the ADV7180 to switch from one video source and display another video source in under 250 ms.
