FAQs
  • FAQ

    Are there any blanking requirements from a GMSL point of view? Can we use 0 blanking? What is the blanking time that you recommend?

    There are blanking requirements stated in the data sheet, and zero blanking time is not supported. In general, CVT-RB timings are a good place to start for video timing proposals, then modified as needed…
  • FAQ

    My ESD test results are below the data sheet limit

    The limits given in the data sheet EC table are per ISO10605, RD = 330Ω, CS = 150pF for Contact and Air discharge and Human Body Model, RD = 1.5kΩ, CS = 100pF, with device powered off.
  • FAQ

    What are the forward and reverse channel latencies for I2C transactions sent across the GMSL Link?

    This latency can be approximated to the same values given for GPIO delay (without delay compensation). For forward channel it is about 1 μs and for reverse channel it is about 6 μs for GMSL2 use-case,…
  • FAQ

    What are the typical and maximum power consumption values given in GMSL part data sheets?

    Typical value of supply current is not a reference for power supply sizing, use the maximum supply value for reference. Typical value of supply current is an indicative value of current consumption which…
  • FAQ

    What is pixel clock and how is it calculated?

    The pixel clock is the clock rate of pixels in a video stream. The following equations can be used to calculate pixel clock: PCLK = Htotal * Vtotal * Framerate PCLK = (Active Width) * (Active Height)…
  • FAQ

    What is the difference in nomenclature between a local device and remote device?

    It's best to think of this terminology relative to the host processor. For cameras or sensors, the deserializer is connected to the processor so it is "local" and the serializer connected on the other…
  • FAQ

    Which ADC voltage reference should be used?

    For MAX96717 and MAX96717F, we recommend using 1.25V internal voltage reference. The setup of these voltage references, and ADC setup, can be found in the MAX96717 User Guide. Note: MAX96717R does not…
