FAQs
  • FAQ

    Are DSI and CSI-2 interchangeable?

    The DSI and CSI-2 packet-level protocols are different and not interchangeable. A DSI transmitter must be matched to a DSI receiver; a CSI-2 transmitter must be matched to a CSI-2 receiver.
  • FAQ

    Are I2C or UART functions controlled by the different "MFP Speed Groups"?

    The I2C/UART functions, whether control channel or pass through, are not affected by the speed group settings. The I2C/UART circuitry has a fixed falling-edge slew rate, and the rising-edge slew rate is…
  • FAQ

    Are there any limitations when using mixed modes (pixel/tunnel) on a deserializer?

    On Dual/Quad deserializers, when some of the links are in tunnel mode and others are in pixel mode, the limitation exists that users cannot aggregate tunnel and pixel mode data streams. Users may aggregate…
  • FAQ

    Can a GMSL device provide a reference clock signal for other devices?

    Yes, GMSL2 devices include a CMOS reference clock output.
  • FAQ

    Can any error flag be routed to ERRB?

    Most errors that have an error status flag can be routed to ERROR/ERRB. When several errors and/or events are configured to drive the ERRB pin, these status registers can be read to determine the source…
  • FAQ

    Can GMSL1 backward compatible devices support HDCP?

    Yes, GMSL2 devices supporting HDCP and GMSL1 backward compatibility can support HDCP. However, GMSL2 style "auto-HDCP" or "HDCP" is not support in GMSL1 mode. In the case of GMSL1 mode, all HDCP authentication…
  • FAQ

    Can I2C/UART passthrough channels access the GMSL2 device registers?

    No, I2C/UART pass-through cannot access GMSL2 device registers. They only provide access to local device registers and provide control of the peripheral devices. However, the I2C/UART primary control channel…
  • FAQ

    Can you have RoR on one link and Xtal mode on the other link

    Yes, it is possible to have one link in crystal mode and other link in RoR mode on the deserializer, refer to device-specific data sheet and user guides for serializers and deserializers that support RoR…
  • FAQ

    Do GMSL devices support HDCP repeater mode?

    Yes, video interface to GMSL link repeater mode is supported by a limited number of devices that include those that may use common consumer connectors which often support HDCP data transmission. In the…
  • FAQ

    Do GMSL1 backward compatible deserializers support AEQ?

    Yes, GMSL1 backward compatible GMSL2 deserializers support AEQ functionality as introduced in the MAX96706 family. This function is enabled by default on GMSL1 backward compatible GMSL2 devices.
