Register Mapping
Detailed Description
Registers set the operating conditions of the deserializer
and are programmed using the control channel in base
mode. The deserializer holds its device address and the
device address of the serializer it is paired with. Similarly,
the serializer holds its device address and the address of
the deserializer. Whenever a device address is changed,
the new address should be written to both devices. The
default device address of the deserializer is set by the
CX/TP input and the default device address of any GMSL
serializer is 0x80 (see Table 1 and Table 8). Registers
0x00 and 0x01 in both devices hold the device addresses.
The MAX9240A deserializer, when paired with the
MAX9271 or MAX9273 serializer, provides the full set
of operating features, but offers basic functionality when
paired with any GMSL serializer.
The deserializer has a maximum serial-bit rate of 1.5Gbps
for 15m or more of cable and operates up to a maximum
output clock of 50MHz in 25-bit, single-output mode, or
75MHz to 100MHz in 15-bit/11-bit, double-output mode,
respectively. This bit rate and output flexibility support
a wide range of displays, from QVGA (320 x 240) to
WVGA (800 x 480) and higher with 18-bit color, as well as
megapixel image sensors. Input equalization, combined
with GMSL serializer pre/deemphasis, extends the cable
length and enhances link reliability
Bit Map
The parallel output functioning and width depend on set-
tings of the double-/single-output mode (DBL), HS/VS
encoding (HVEN), error correction used (EDC), and bus
width (BWS) pins. Table 2 lists the bit map for the control
pin settings. Unused output bits are pulled low.
The control channel enables a µC to program the serial-
izer and deserializer registers and program registers on
peripherals. The control channel is also used to configure
and access the GPIO. The µC can be located at either
end of the link, or when using two µCs, at both ends. Two
modes of control-channel operation are available. Base
The parallel output has two output modes: single and
double output. In single-output mode, the deserialized
parallel data is clocked out every PCLKOUT cycle. The
device accepts pixel clocks from 6.25MHz to 50MHz
(Figures 11 and 12).
2
mode uses either I C or GMSL UART protocol, while
bypass mode uses a user-defined UART protocol. UART
2
protocol allows full-duplex communication, while I C
In double-output mode, the device splits deserialized
data into two half-sized words that are output at twice the
serial-word rate (Figures 13 and 14). The serializer/dese-
rializer use pixel clock rates from 33.3MHz to 100MHz
for 11-bit, double-output mode and 25MHz to 75MHz for
15-bit, double-output mode.
allows half-duplex communication.
Spread spectrum is available to reduce EMI on the paral-
lel output. The serial input complies with ISO 10605 and
IEC 61000-4-2 ESD protection standards.

control channel and forward video data coexist on the
Serial Link Signaling and Data Format
The serializer uses differential CMLsignaling to drive twist-
ed-pair cable and single-ended CML to drive coax cable
with programmable pre/deemphasis and AC-coupling.
The deserializer uses AC-coupling and programmable
channel equalization.
same serial cable, forming a bidirectional link. The
reverse control channel operates independently from the
forward control channel. The reverse control channel is
available 2ms after power-up. The serializer temporarily
disables the reverse control channel for 350Fs after start-
ing/stopping the forward serial link.
Input data is scrambled and then 8b/10b coded. The
deserializer recovers the embedded serial clock, then
samples, decodes, and descrambles the data. In 24-bit
or 32-bit mode, 22 or 30 bits contain the video data
and/or error-correction bits, if used. The 23rd or 31st bit
carries the forward control-channel data. The last bit is the
parity bit of the previous 23 or 31 bits (Table 15).
Data-Rate Selection
The serializer/deserializer use DRS, DBL, and BWS to set
the PCLKOUT frequency range (Table 3). Set DRS = 1
for a PCLKOUT frequency range of 6.25MHz to 12.5MHz
(32-bit, single-output mode) or 8.33MHz to 16.66MHz (24-
bit, single-output mode). Set DRS = 0 for normal opera-
tion. It is not recommended to use double-output mode
when DRS = 1.

6.25MHz to 100MHz, 25-Bit GMSL Deserializer for
Coax or STP Cable With Line Fault Detect
The deserializer uses differential line coding to send
signals over the reverse channel to the serializer. The bit
rate of the control channel is 9.6kbps to 1Mbps in both
directions. The serializer/deserializer automatically detect
the control-channel bit rate in base mode. Packet bit-rate
changes can be made in steps of up to 3.5 times higher
or lower than the previous bit rate. See the Changing the
Clock Frequency section for more information.
Control Channel and
Register Programming
The control channel is available for the µC to send and
receive control data over the serial link simultaneously
with the high-speed data. The µC controls the link from
either the serializer or the deserializer side to support
video-display or image-sensing applications. The control
channel between the µC and serializer or deserializer
runs in base mode or bypass mode, according to the
mode selection (MS/HVEN) input of the device connected
to the µC. Base mode is a half-duplex control channel and
bypass mode is a full-duplex control channel.
Figure 16 shows the UART protocol for writing and read-
ing in base mode between the µC and the serializer/
deserializer.
Figure17showstheUARTdataformat. Evenparityisused.
Figure 18 and Figure 19 detail the formats of the SYNC
byte (0x79) and theACK byte (0xC3). The µC and the con-
nected slave chip generate the SYNC byte and ACK byte,
respectively. Events such as device wake-up and GPI
generate transitions on the control channel that can be
ignored by the µC. Data written to the serializer/deserial-
izer registers do not take effect until after the ACK byte is
sent. This allows the µC to verify that write commands are
received without error, even if the result of the write com-
mand directly affects the serial link. The slave uses the
SYNC byte to synchronize with the host UART’s data rate.
If the GPI or MS/HVEN inputs of the deserializer toggle
while there is control-channel communication, or if a line
fault occurs, the control-channel communication is cor-
rupted. In the event of a missed or delayed acknowledge
(~1ms due to control-channel timeout), the µC should
assume there was an error in the packet transmission or
response. In base mode, the µC must keep the UART Tx/
Rx lines high no more than 4 bit times between bytes in a
packet. Keep the UART Tx/Rx lines high for at least 16 bit
times before starting to send a new packet.
UART Interface
In base mode, the µC is the host and can access the
registers of both the serializer and deserializer from
either side of the link using the GMSL UART protocol.
The µC can also program the peripherals on the remote
side by sending the UART packets to the serializer or
2
deserializer, with the UART packets converted to I C
by the device on the remote side of the link. The µC
communicates with a UART peripheral in base mode
(through INTTYPE register settings), using the half-
duplex default GMSL UART protocol of the serializer/
deserializer. The device addresses of the serializer/
deserializer in base mode are programmable. The default
value is 0x80 for the serializer and is determined by the
CX/TP input for the deserializer (Table 8).
2
When the peripheral interface is I C, the serializer/
deserializer convert UART packets to I C that have
device addresses different from those of the serializer or
deserializer. The converted I C bit rate is the same as the
2
2
original UART bit rate.

100µs to ensure proper GPO functionality. Bypass mode

In bypass mode, the serializer/deserializer ignore UART
commands from the µC and the µC communicates with
the peripherals directly using its own defined UART pro-
tocol. The µC cannot access the serializer/deserializer
registers in this mode. Peripherals accessed through the
forward control channel using the UART interface need
to handle at least one PCLKOUT period ± 10ns of jitter
due to the asynchronous sampling of the UART signal
by PCLKOUT. Set MS/HVEN = high to put the control
channel into bypass mode. For applications with the µC

that interfaces with remote-side I C perhipherals. The I C
master must accept clock stretching, which is imposed by
the deserializer (holding SCL low). The SDA and SCL lines
operate as both an input and an open-drain output. Pullup
resistors are required on SDA and SCL. Each transmis-
sion consists of a START condition (Figure 5) sent by a
master, followed by the device’s 7-bit slave address plus a
R/W bit, a register address byte, one or more data bytes,
and finally a STOP condition.

START and STOP Conditions
Acknowledge
Both SCL and SDA remain high when the interface is not
busy. A master signals the beginning of a transmission
with a START (S) condition by transitioning SDA from high
to low while SCL is high (Figure 22). When the master has
finished communicating with the slave, it issues a STOP
(P) condition by transitioning SDA from low to high while
SCL is high. The bus is then free for another transmission.
The acknowledge bit is a clocked 9th bit that the recipi-
ent uses to handshake receipt of each byte of data
(Figure 24). Thus, each byte transferred effectively requires
9 bits. The master generates the 9th clock pulse, and the
recipient pulls down SDA during the acknowledge clock
pulse. The SDA line is stable low during the high period
of the clock pulse. When the master is transmitting to the
slave device, the slave device generates the acknowl-
edge bit because the slave device is the recipient. When
the slave device is transmitting to the master, the master
generates the acknowledge bit because the master is the
recipient. The device generates an acknowledge even
when the forward control channel is not active (not locked).
To prevent acknowledge generation when the forward
control channel is not active, set the I2CLOCACK bit low.
Bit Transfer
One data bit is transferred during each clock pulse
(Figure 23). The data on SDA must remain stable while
SCL is high.

beyond storing the register address (Figure 26). Any
Slave Address
bytes received after the register address are data bytes.
The first data byte goes into the register selected by the
register address, and subsequent data bytes go into
subsequent registers (Figure 27). If multiple data bytes
are transmitted before a STOP condition, these bytes
are stored in subsequent registers because the register
addresses autoincrement.
The serializer/deserializer have a 7-bit-long slave address.
The bit following a 7-bit slave address is the R/W bit, which
is low for a write command and high for a read command.
The slave address is 100100X1 for read commands and
100100X0 for write commands. See Figure 25.

The device resets the bus with the I C START condition
Format for Reading
for reads. When the R/W bit is set to 1, the serializer/
deserializer transmit data to the master, thus the master
is reading from the device.
The serializer/deserializer are read using the internally
stored register address as an address pointer, the same
way the stored register address is used as an address
pointer for a write. The pointer autoincrements after each
data byte is read using the same rules as for a write. Thus,
a read is initiated by first configuring the register address
by performing a write (Figure 28). The master can now
read consecutive bytes from the device, with the first
data byte being read from the register address pointed by
the previously written register address. Once the master
sends a NACK, the device stops sending valid data.
Format for Writing
A write to the serializer/deserializer comprises the trans-
mission of the slave address with the R/W bit set to zero,
followed by at least one byte of information. The first
byte of information is the register address or command
byte. The register address determines which register of
the device is to be written by the next byte, if received.
If a STOP (P) condition is detected after the register
address is received, the device takes no further action

GPO/GPI Control
by setting the SLV_SH register settings on both sides.
GPO on the serializer follows GPI transitions on the
deserializer. This GPO/GPI function can be used to
transmit signals such as frame sync in a surround-view
camera system. The GPI-to-GPO delay is 0.35ms (max).
Keep the time between GPI transitions to a minimun
0.35ms. This includes transitions from the other dese-
rializer in coax-splitter mode. Bit D4 of register 0x0E in
the deserializer stores the GPI input state. GPO is low
after power-up. The FC can set GPO by writing to the
serializer SET_GPO register bit. Do not send a logic-low
value on the deserializer RX/SDA input (UART mode)
longer than 100µs in either base or bypass mode to
ensure proper GPO/GPI functionality.

I C Address Translation

The deserializer supports I C address translation for up to
two device addresses. Use address translation to assign
unique device addresses to peripherals with limited

I C addresses. Source addresses (address to translate
from) are stored in registers 0x09 and 0x0B. Destination
addresses (address to translate to) are stored in registers
0x0A and 0x0C.

spectrum modulation frequency within 20kHz to 40kHz.
Additionally, manual configuration of the sawtooth divider
(SDIV: 0x03, D[5:0]) allows the user to set a modulation
frequency according to the PCLKOUT frequency. When
ranges are manually selected, program the SDIV value
for a fixed modulation frequency around 20kHz.
PRBS Test
The serializer includes a PRBS pattern generator that
works with bit-error verification in the deserializer. To run
the PRBS test, set PRBSEN = 1 (0x04, D5) in the deseri-
alizer and then in the serializer. To exit the PRBS test, set
PRBSEN = 0 (0x04, D5) in the serializer.
Manual Programming
Line Equalizer
of the Spread-Spectrum Divider
The deserializer includes an adjustable line equalizer to
further compensate cable attenuation at high frequencies.
The cable equalizer has 11 selectable levels of compen-
sation from 2.1dB to 13dB (Table 5). The device powers
up with the equalizer disabled. To select other equaliza-
tion levels, set the corresponding register bits in the dese-
rializer (0x05 D[3:0]). Use equalization in the deserializer,
together with preemphasis in the serializer, to create the
most reliable link for a given cable.
The modulation rate for the deserializer relates to the
PCLKOUT frequency as follows:
f

f
= 1+ DRS
(

where:

To reduce the EMI generated by transitions, the dese-
rializer output is programmable for spread spectrum. If
the serializer driving the deserializer has programmable
spread spectrum, do not enable spread for both at the
same time or their interaction will cancel benefits. The
programmable spread-spectrum amplitudes are ±2% and
±4% (Table 6).
MOD = Modulation coefficient given in Table 7
SDIV = 5-bit SDIV setting, manually programmed by
the µC
To program the SDIV setting, first look up the modulation
coefficient according to the desired bus-width and spread-
spectrum settings. Solve the above equation for SDIV using
the desired pixel clock and modulation frequencies. If the
calculated SDIV value is larger than the maximum allowed
SDIV value in Table 7, set SDIV to the maximum value.
The deserializer includes
a sawtooth divider to
control the spread-modulation rate. Autodetection of
the PCLKOUT operation range guarantees a spread-

6.25MHz to 100MHz, 25-Bit GMSL Deserializer for
Coax or STP Cable With Line Fault Detect
Additional Error Detection and Correction
HS/VS Encoding and/or Tracking
In default mode (additional error detection and correc-
tion disabled), data encoding/decoding is the same as in
previous GMSL serializers/deserializers (parity only). At
the serializer, the parallel input word is scrambled and a
parity bit is added. The scrambled word is divided into 3 or
4 bytes (depending on the BWS setting), 8b/10b encoded,
and then transmitted serially. At the deserializer, the same
operations are performed in reverse order. The parity bit
is used by the deserializer to find the word boundary and
for error detection. Errors are counted in an error counter
register and an error pin indicates errors.
HS/VS encoding by a GMSL serializer allows horizontal
and vertical synchronization signals to be transmitted
while conserving pixel data bandwidth. With HS/VS
encoding enabled, 10-bit pixel data with a clock up to
100MHz can be transmitted using one video pixel of data
per HS/VS transition versus 8-bit data with a clock up to
100MHz without HS/VS encoding. The deserializer per-
forms HS/VS decoding, tracks the period of the HS/VS
signals, and uses voting to filter HS/VS bit errors. When
using HS/VS encoding, use a minimum HS/VS low-pulse
duration of two PCLKOUT cycles when DBL = 0 on the
deserializer. When DBL = 1, use a minimum HS/VS low-
pulse duration of five PCLKOUT cycles and a minimum
high-pulse duration of two PCLKOUT cycles. When using
hamming code with HS/VS encoding, do not send more
than two transitions every 16 PCLKOUT cycles.
The deserializer can use one of two additional error-detec-
tion/correction methods (selectable by register setting):
1) 6-bit cyclic redundancy check
2) 6-bit hamming code with 16-word interleaving
When the serializer uses double-input mode (DBL = 1),
the active duration, plus the blanking duration of HS or
VS signals, should be an even number of PCLKOUT
cycles. When DBL = 1 in the serializer and DBL = 0 in the
deserializer, two pixel clock cycles of HS/VS at the serial-
izer input are output at the HS0/VS0 and HS1/VS1 output
of the deserializer in one cycle. The first cycle of HS/VS
goes out of HS0/VS0 and the second cycle goes out of
HS1/VS1. HS1 and VS1 are not used when HVEN = 0.
Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC)
When CRC is enabled, the serializer adds 6 bits of CRC
to the input data. This reduces the available bits in the
input data word by 6, compared to the non-CRC case
(see Table 2 for details). For example, 16 bits are avail-
able for input data instead of 22 bits when BWS = 0, and
24 bits instead of 30 bits when BWS = 1.
6
The CRC generator polynomial is x + x + 1 (as used in
the ITU-T G704 telecommunication standard).
If HS/VS tracking is used without HS/VS encoding, use
DOUT0 for HSYNC and DOUT1 for VSYNC. In this case,
if DBL values on the serializer/deserializer are different,
set the UNEQDBL register bit in the deserializer to 1.
If the serializer and deserializer have unequal DBL set-
tings and HVEN = 0, then HS/VS inversion should only
be used on the side that has DBL = 1. HS/VS encoding
sends packets when HSYNC or VSYNC is low; use HS/
VS inversion register bits if input HSYNC and VSYNC
signals use an active-low convention in order to send data
packets during the inactive pixel clock periods.
The parity bit is still added when CRC is enabled, because
it is used for word-boundary detection. When CRC is
enabled, each data word is scrambled and then the
6-bit CRC and 1-bit parity are added before the 8b/10b
encoding.
At the deserializer, the CRC code is recalculated. If the
recalculated CRC code does not match the received CRC
code, an error is flagged. This CRC error is reported to the
error counter.
Hamming Code
Serial Input
Hamming code is a simple and effective error-correction
code to detect and/or correct errors. The MAX9240A
deserializer (when used with the MAX9271/MAX9273
GMSL serializers) uses a single-error correction/double-
error detection per pixel hamming-code scheme.
The device can receive serial data from two kinds of
cables: 100Ω twisted pair and 50Ω coax (contact the
factory for devices compatible with 75Ω cables).
Coax-Mode Splitter
The deserializer uses data interleaving for burst error tol-
erance. Burst errors up to 11 consecutive bits on the serial
link are corrected and burst errors up to 31 consecutive
bits are detected.
In coax mode, OUT+ and OUT- of the serializer are active.
This enables use as a 1:2 splitter (Figure 29). In coax
mode, connect OUT+ to IN+ of the deserializer. Connect
OUT- to IN- of the second deserializer. Control-channel
data is broadcast from the serializer to both deserializers
and their attached peripherals. Assign a unique address
Hamming code adds overhead similar to CRC. See Table 2
for details regarding the available input word size.

and at each deserializer, only one µC can communicate at
a time. Disable one splitter control-channel link to prevent
contention. Use the DIS_REV_P or DIS_REV_N register
bits to disable a control-channel link.

Cable Type Configuration Input (CX/TP)
Power-Down Mode
CX/TP determines the power-up state of the serial input.
In coax mode, CX/TP also determines which coax input
is active, along with the default device address (Table 8).
These functions can be changed after power-up by writing
to the appropriate register bits.
The deserializer has a power-down mode that further
reduces power consumption compared to sleep mode.
Set PWDN low to enter power-down mode. In power-
down mode, the outputs of the device remain in high
impedance. Entering power-down resets the device’s
registers. Upon exiting power-down, the state of external
pins GPIO1/BWS, GPIO0/DBL, CX/TP, I2CSEL, LCCEN,
RX/SDA/EDC, TX/SCL/ES, and MS/HVEN are latched.
Sleep Mode
The deserializer includes a sleep mode to reduce power
consumption. The device enters or exits sleep mode by a
command from a local µC or a remote µC using the con-
trol channel. Set the SLEEP bit to 1 to initiate sleep mode.
The serializer sleeps immediately after setting its SLEEP
= 1. The deserializer sleeps after serial link inactivity or
8ms (whichever arrives first) after setting its SLEEP = 1.
To wake up from the local side, send an arbitrary control-
channel command to the deserializer, wait 5ms for the
chip to power up, and then write 0 to the SLEEP register
bit to make the wake-up permanent. To wake up from the
remote side, enable serialization. To deserializer detects
Configuration Link
The control channel can operate in a low-speed mode
called configuration link in the absence of a clock input.
This allows a microprocessor to program configuration
registers before starting the video link. An internal oscil-
lator provides the clock for the configuration link. Set
CLINKEN = 1 on the serializer to enable the configuration
link. The configuration link is active until the video link is
enabled. The video link overrides the configuration link
and attempts to lock when SEREN = 1.

Error Checking
The deserializer checks the serial link for errors and
stores the number of detected and corrected errors in
the 8-bit registers, DETERR (0x10) and CORRERR
(0x12). If a large number of 8b/10b errors are detected
within a short duration (error rate R 1/4), the deserializer
loses lock and stops the error counter. The deserializer
then attempts to relock to the serial data. DETERR and
CORRERR reset upon successful video link lock, suc-
cessful readout of their respective registers (through µC),
or whenever autoerror reset is enabled. The deserializer
uses a separate PRBS register during the internal PRBS
test, and DETERR and CORRERR are reset to 0x00.
tion fails due to contention. If communication across the
serial link is not required, the µCs can disable the forward
and reverse control channel using the FWDCCEN and
REVCCEN bits (0x04, D[1:0]) in the serializer/deserial-
izer. Communication across the serial link is stopped and
contention between µCs cannot occur.
As an example of dual µC use in an image-sensing appli-
cation, the serializer can be in sleep mode and waiting for
wake-up by the µC on the deserializer side. After wake-
up, the serializer-side µC assumes master control of the
serializer’s registers.
Changing the Clock Frequency
It is recommended that the serial link be enabled after
ERR Output
The deserializer has an open-drain ERR output. This
output asserts low whenever the number of detected/
corrected errors exceeds their respective error thresholds
during normal operation, or when at least one PRBS error
is detected during PRBS test. ERR reasserts high when-
ever DETERR and CORRERR reset, due to DETERR/
CORRERR readout, video link lock, or autoerror reset.

frequency, stop the video clock for 5µs, apply the clock
at the new frequency, then restart the serial link or toggle
SEREN. On-the-fly changes in clock frequency are possi-
ble if the new frequency is immediately stable and without
glitches. The reverse control channel remains unavailable
for 350µs after serial link start or stop. When using the

The default method to reset errors is to read the respec-
tive error registers in the deserializer (0x10, 0x12, and

tors of less than 3.5 at a time to ensure that the device
recognizes the UART sync pattern. For example, when
lowering the UART frequency from 1Mbps to 100kbps,
first send data at 333kbps then at 100kbps for reduction
ratios of 3 and 3.333, respectively.
Fast Detection of
Loss-of-Synchronization
Dual µC Control
A measure of link quality is the recovery time from loss-of-
synchronization. The host can be quickly notified of loss-
of-lock by connecting the deserializer’s LOCK output to
the GPI input. If other sources use the GPI input, such as
a touch-screen controller, the µC can implement a routine
to distinguish between interrupts from loss-of-sync and
normal interrupts. Reverse control-channel communica-
tion does not require an active forward link to operate and
accurately tracks the LOCK status of the GMSL link. LOCK
asserts for video link only and not for the configuration link.
Usually systems have one µC to run the control channel,
located on the serializer side for video-display applica-
tions or on the deserializer side for image-sensing appli-
cations. However, a µC can reside on each side simulta-
neously and trade off running the control channel. In this
case, each µC can communicate with the serializer and
deserializer and any peripheral devices.
Contention occurs if both µCs attempt to use the control
channel at the same time. It is up to the user to prevent
this contention by implementing a higher-level protocol.

Providing a Frame Sync
(Camera Applications)
The GPI/GPO provides a simple solution for camera
applications that require a frame sync signal from the
ECU (e.g., surround-view systems). Connect the ECU
frame sync signal to the GPI input, and connect the GPO
output to the camera frame sync input. GPI/GPO have
a typical delay of 275µs. Skew between multiple GPI/
GPO channels is 115µs (max). If a lower skew signal is
required, connect the camera’s frame sync input to one of
three-state logic to drive the three-level logic input.
Configuration Blocking
The deserializer can block changes to registers. Set
CFGBLOCK to make all registers read only. Once set, the
registers remain blocked until the supplies are removed or
until PWDN is low.

the GMSL deserializer’s GPIOs and use an I C broadcast
write command to change the GPIO output state. This has
a maximum skew of 1.5µs.
Compatibility with other GMSL Devices
The MAX9240A deserializer is designed to pair with the
MAX9271/MAX9273 serializers, but interoperate with any
GMSL serializers. See the Table 11 for operating limitations.
Software Programming
of the Device Addresses
GPIOs
Both the serializer and the deserializer have program-
mable device addresses. This allows multiple GMSL
The deserializer has two open-drain GPIOs available
when not used as configuration inputs. GPIO1OUT and
GPIO0OUT (0x0E, D3 and D1) set the output state of the
GPIOs. Setting the GPIO output bits to 0 pulls the output
low, while setting the bits to 1 leaves the output undriven
and pulled high through internal/external pullup resistors.
The GPIO input buffers are always enabled. The input
states are stored in GPIO1 and GPIO0 (0x0E, D2 and
D0). Set GPIO1OUT/GPIO0OUT to 1 when using GPIO1/
GPIO0 as an input.

devices, along with I C peripherals, to coexist on the
same control channel. The serializer device address is in
register 0x00 of each device, while the deserializer device
address is in register 0x01 of each device. To change a
device address, first write to the device whose address
changes (register 0x00 of the serializer for serializer
device address change, or register 0x01 of the deserial-
izer for deserializer device address change). Then write
the same address into the corresponding register on the
other device (register 0x00 of the deserializer for serial-
izer device address change, or register 0x01 of the serial-
izer for deserializer device address change).
Staggered Parallel Outputs
The deserializer staggers the parallel data outputs to
reduce EMI and noise. Staggering outputs also reduces
the power-supply transient requirements. By default, the
deserializer staggers outputs according to Table 12. Disable
output staggering through the DISSTAG bit (0x08, D3).
Three-Level Configuration Inputs
CX/TP is a three-level input that controls the serial-
interface configuration and power-up defaults. Connect

required external resistor connections. LFLT goes low
when a line fault is detected and LFLT goes high when
the line returns to normal. The line-fault failure type is
stored in 0x14 D[3:0] of the deserializer. Filter LFLT with
the µC to reduce the detector’s susceptibility to temporary
ground shifts. The fault detector threshold voltages are
referenced to the deserializer ground. Additional passive
components set the DC level of the cable (Figure 2a). If
the serializer and GMSL deserializer grounds are differ-
ent, the link DC voltage during normal operation can vary
and cross one of the fault detection thresholds.
Local Control-Channel Enable (LCCEN)
The deserializer provides inputs for limited configura-
tion of the device when a µC is not connected. Connect
LCCEN = low upon power-up to disable the local control
channel and enable the double-function configuration
inputs (Table 13). All input configuration states are latched
at power-up.
Line-Fault Detection
The line-fault detector in the deserializer monitors for line
failures such as short to ground, short to battery, and
open link for system fault diagnosis. Figure 2a shows the

6.25MHz to 100MHz, 25-Bit GMSL Deserializer for

For the fault detection circuit, select the resistor’s power
rating to handle a short to the battery. In coax mode,
leave the unused line-fault inputs unconnected. To detect
the short-together case, refer to Application Note 4709:
GMSL Line-Fault Detection. Table 13a lists the mapping

transmission line impedance (usually 100Ω differential and
50Ω single-ended). This leaves the capacitor selection to
change the system time constant. Use 0.22µF or larger
high-frequency surface-mount ceramic capacitors, with
sufficient voltage rating to withstand a short to battery, to
pass the lower speed reverse control-channel signal. Use
capacitors with a case size less than 3.2mm x 1.6mm to
have lower parasitic effects to the high-speed signal.
Internal Input Pulldowns
The control and configuration inputs, except three-level
inputs, include a pulldown resistor to GND. External pull-
down resistors are not needed.
Power-Supply Circuits and Bypassing
The deserializer uses an AVDD and DVDD of 1.7V to
1.9V. All inputs and outputs, except for the serial input,
derive power from an IOVDD of 1.7V to 3.6V that scales
with IOVDD. Proper voltage-supply bypassing is essential
for high-frequency circuit stability. The GPI-to-GPO delay
is 0.35ms (max). Keep the time between GPI transmis-
sions to a minimum 0.35ms.

Choosing I C/UART Pullup Resistors
2
The I C and UART open-drain lines require a pullup
resistor to provide a logic-high level. There are tradeoffs
between power dissipation and speed, and a compromise
may be required when choosing pullup resistor values.
Every device connected to the bus introduces some
Power-Supply Table

capacitance even when the device is not in operation. I C
specifies 300ns rise times (30% to 70%) for fast mode,
which is defined for data rates up to 400kbps (see the I C
specifications in the AC Electrical Characteristics table
for details). To meet the fast-mode rise-time requirement,
Power-supply currents shown in the Electrical
Characteristics table are the sum of the currents from
AVDD, DVDD, and IOVDD. Typical currents from the indi-
vidual power supplies are shown in Table 14.

AC-Coupling
AC-coupling isolates the receiver from DC voltages up
to the voltage rating of the capacitor. Capacitors at the
serializer output and at the deserializer input are needed
for proper link operation and to provide protection if either
end of the cable is shorted to a battery. AC-coupling
blocks low-frequency ground shifts and low-frequency
common-mode noise.

Voltage droop and the digital sum variation (DSV) of trans-
mitted symbols cause signal transitions to start from dif-
ferent voltage levels. Because the transition time is fixed,
starting the signal transition from different voltage levels
causes timing jitter. The time constant for an AC-coupled
link needs to be chosen to reduce droop and jitter to an
acceptable level. The RC network for an AC-coupled link
consists of the CML/coax receiver termination resistor

Separate the LVCMOS logic signals and CML/coax high-
speed signals to prevent crosstalk. Use a four-layer PCB
with separate layers for power, ground, CML/coax, and
LVCMOS logic signals. Layout PCB traces close to each
other for a 100Ω differential characteristic impedance.
The trace dimensions depend on the type of trace used
(microstrip or stripline). Note that two 50Ω PCB traces do
not have 100Ω differential impedance when brought close
together—the impedance goes down when the traces
are brought closer. Use a 50Ω trace for the single-ended
output when driving coax.
