FAQ I am using a GMSL2 part in GMSL1 mode. which channel spec should I use?

Customers should follow the GMSL specification according to whichever mode is being used. thus a part working in GMSL1 mode should follow the GMSL1 specs.

However, to reduce the amount of redesign, it is best to pass the specifications of all possible modes that a part is capable of, to allow for better reuse in the future. A board for the MAX96724, capable of GMSL2 and GMSL1 modes, should pass the 6G GMSL2, 3G GMSL2, and 3.125G GMSL1 specs.
