MAX9286：Quad 1.5Gbps GMSL Deserializer with Coax or STP Input and CSI-2 Output

Integrated GMSL Deserializer Receives and Automatically Synchronizes Video from Up to Four Serializers

The MAX9286 Gigabit multimedia serial link (GMSL) deserializer receives data from up to four GMSL serializers over 50Ω coax or 100Ω shielded twisted-pair (STP) cables and output data on four CSI-2 lanes. Each serial link has an embedded control channel operating from 9.6kbps to 1Mbps in UART-to-UART, UART-to-I²C, and I²C-to-I²C mode. Using the control channel, a µC can program the serializers, deserializer, and peripheral device registers at any time, independent of video timing. A maskable broadcast write speeds programming of image sensor registers. For use with longer cables, the deserializer has a programmable cable equalizer and programmable error detection and correction. The serial input meets ISO 10605 and IEC 61000-4-2 ESD standards. The core supply is 1.7V to 1.9V and the I/O supply is 1.7V to 3.6V. The device is available in lead(Pb)-free, 56-pin, 8mm × 8mm SWTQFN and TQFN packages with exposed pad and 0.5mm lead pitch.
