In general, it is advised not to connect any of these pins to GND. They would be better left floating (maybe with some extra PCB traces laid out so you can probe them easily if troubleshooting is needed…
The MAX96706 datasheet* states in its EC table, page 8, that the test condition for a logic low on the open-drain outputs is 3mA. This applies to ERRB, LOCK, and LFLTB. So, you can safely sink up to 3mA…
No. On this part only one of the inputs can be active at one time. For multi input (multi camera) work, please see the MAX9286. This will work with from 1 to 4 four (identical) camera inputs. It does have…
GMSL Serdes parts have some setting pins, such as I2CSEL, BWS, CXTP and so on. And they have to have pullup or pulldown resistance on each pin.
Customers using multiple GMSL parts on single board, must…
Most design issues can be avoided if the following checks are made on the schematic 1. Voltage Supply Rails a. Match datasheet b. Are adequately decoupled c. When shared with other parts are isolated with…
Maxim does not have a model for the reverse channel. The performance of the link depends more on the cable/channel as opposed to our component. Therefore, the user should simulate their own layout and…
MAX96706 Vs MAX96708 what is the difference?
They are very similar.
The MAX96706 has a few extra functions and features.
These are HBM (High Bandwidth Mode), Auto-retransmission on error and extra…
The MAX96706 datasheet lists the worst case currents for AVDD + DVDD on page 11 of the datasheet*. AVDD and DVDD are both 1.8V supplies, so the assumption is that they will be powered by the same 1.8V…
There’s no power up sequence requirment for AVDD, DVDD & IOVDD.
However, we do not encourage to power (pull-high) the port pins from the controller when MAX97606 is not yet powered up. There’s a risk…
