A single design can meet requirements for both GMSL1 and GMSL2 operation if some very simple rules are followed:
The system must meet the GMSL1 or GMSL2 channel specification.
The GMSL link AC-coupling…
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…
The expectation is that the cable and system never fail the GMSL channel specification limits. The cable or system, under all expected conditions, must still pass the channel specification. Link margin…
There are several items that can cause issues. please check all of the following:
Check for GMSL link lock (PCLK detect requires an active GMSL2 link lock). Note that for dual and quad deserializers…
Customers should do analysis and testing to make sure that whatever connector is chosen passes the channel specification. Fakra, HMTD, and HFM are some examples of connectors that are commonly 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…
