SCART-Splitter

This is a simple SCART splitter based on the THS7374. The circuit is is AC-bias mode so component video will be properly driven. It can be easily adapted for a variety of connectors; RCA, BNC, VGA, whatever you need. Audio is simply connected to both outputs so might be a bit quiet.

Thanks

This was loosely based on Voultar's open source Dual Output board. Special thanks also to RetroRGB; thanks to examining the 2DVI boards I gained a better understanding of these circuits.

Questions

How big is the SCART Splitter PCB?

It measures 80 × 65.4 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the SCART Splitter use?

44 parts, built around the THS7374. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.

Where can I download the SCART Splitter KiCad files?

From the arithmaldor/SCART-Splitter repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is SCART Splitter.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the SCART Splitter design in my own project?

Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask arithmaldor before reusing the design.
