MAX9273
22-Bit GMSL Serializer with Coax or
STP Cable Drive
General Description
Benefits and Features
S Ideal for Camera Applications
The MAX9273 compact serializer is designed to drive
50I coax or 100I shielded twisted-pair (STP) cable.
The device pairs with the MAX9272 deserializer. The
parallel input is programmable for single or double input.
Double input allows higher pixel clock input frequency by
registering two pixels of typical image-sensor video data
before serializing. This doubles the maximum pixel clock
frequency compared to single input.

Mode with Clock Stretch Capability
ꢀBest-in-Class Supply Current: 75mA (max)
ꢀDouble-Rate Clock for Megapixel Cameras
ꢀSerializer Pre/Deemphasis Allows 15m Cable at
Full Speed
The device features an embedded control channel that
operates at 9.6kbps to 1Mbps in UART and mixed UART/
I2C modes, and up to 400kbps in I2C mode. Using the
control channel, a microcontroller (FC) is capable of
programming serializer, deserializer, and camera (or any
peripheral) registers at any time, independent of video
timing. There is one dedicated GPIO, four optional GPIOs,
and a GPO output, allowing remote power-up of a camera
module, camera frame synchronization, and other uses.
Error-detection and correction coding are programmable.

Register Mapping
Detailed Description
Registers set the operating conditions of the serializer
and are programmed using the control channel in base
mode. The serializer holds its device address and the
device address of the deserializer it is driving. Similarly,
the driven deserializer holds its device address and the
address of the serializer by which it is driven. Whenever
a device address is changed, be sure to write the new
address to both devices. The default device address of
the MAX9273 serializer (or any GMSL serializer) is 0x80
and the default device address of any GMSL deserial-
izer is 0x90 (Table 1). Registers 0x00 and 0x01 in both
devices hold the device addresses.
The MAX9273 serializer, when paired with the MAX9272
deserializer, provides the full set of operating features,
but offers basic functionality when paired with any GMSL
deserializer.
The serializer has a maximum serial-bit rate of 1.5Gbps
for 15m or more of cable and operates up to a maximum
input clock of 50MHz in 22-bit, single-input mode, or
75MHz/100MHz in 15-bit/11-bit, double-input mode,
respectively. Pre/deemphasis, along with the GMSL
deserializer channel equalizer, extends the link length
and enhances link reliability.
Input Bit Map
The parallel input functioning and width depends on
settings of the double-/single-input mode (DBL), HS/VS
encoding (HVEN), error correction (EDC), and bus width
(BWS). DINA are the inputs latched by the pixel clock in
single-input mode, or the inputs latched on the first pixel
clock in double-input mode. DINB are the inputs latched
on the second pixel clock in double-input mode. Table 2
lists the bit map for the control pin settings.
The control channel enables a FC to program serial-
izer and deserializer registers and program registers
on peripherals. The FC can be located at either end of
the link, or at both ends. Two modes of control-channel
operation are available with associated protocols and
data formats. Base mode uses either I2C or GMSL UART,
while bypass mode uses a user-defined UART.
Spread spectrum is available to reduce EMI on the serial
output. The serial output complies with ISO 10605 and
IEC 61000-4-2 ESD protection standards.

Serial Link Signaling and Data Format
The serializer uses differential CML signaling to drive
twisted-pair cable and single-ended CML to drive coaxial
cable. The output amplitude is programmable.
Control Channel and Register Programming
The control channel is available for the FC to send and
receive control data over the serial link simultaneously
with the high-speed data. The FC controls the link from
either the serializer or deserializer side. The control chan-
nel between the FC and serializer or deserializer runs in
base mode or bypass mode, according to the mode-
selection (MS) input of the device connected to the FC.
Base mode is a half-duplex control channel and bypass
mode is a full-duplex control channel.
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 (Figure 17).
UART Interface
In base mode, the FC 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 FC can also program the peripherals on the remote
side by sending the UART packets to the serializer or
deserializer, with the UART packets converted to I2C
by the device on the remote side of the link. The FC
communicates with a UART peripheral in base mode
(through INTTYPE register settings), using the half-duplex
default GMSL UART protocol of the serializer/deserial-
izer. The device addresses of the serializer/deserializer in
base mode are programmable. The default value is 0x80
for the serializer and 0x90 for the deserializer.
Reverse Control Channel
The serializer uses the reverse control channel to receive
I2C/UART and GPO signals from the deserializer in the
opposite direction of the video stream. The reverse
control channel and forward video data coexist on
the 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.
Data-Rate Selection
The serializer/deserializer use DRS, DBL, and BWS to set
the PCLKIN frequency range (Table 3). Set DRS = 1 for
a PCLKIN frequency range of 6.25MHz to 12.5MHz (32-
bit, single-input mode) or 8.33MHz to 16.66MHz (24-bit,
single-input mode). Set DRS = 0 for normal operation.
It is not recommended to use double-input mode when
DRS = 1.
When the peripheral interface is I2C, the serializer/
deserializer convert UART packets to I2C that have
device addresses different from those of the serializer or
deserializer. The converted I2C bit rate is the same as the
original UART bit rate.

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 informa-
tion on changing the control-channel bit rate.
izer registers do not take effect until after the acknowl-
edge byte is sent. This allows the FC to verify that write
commands are received without error, even if the result
of the write command 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 com-
munication, or if a line fault occurs, the control-channel
communication is corrupted. In the event of a missed
or delayed acknowledge (~1ms due to control-channel
timeout), the FC should assume there was an error in the
packet when the slave device received it, or that an error
occurred during the response from the slave device. In
base mode, the FC must keep the UART Tx/Rx lines high
for 16 bit times before starting to send a new packet.
Figure 19 shows the UART data format. Figure 20 and
Figure 21 detail the formats of the SYNC byte (0x79)
and the ACK byte (0xC3). The FC and the connected
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 FC. Data written to the serializer/deserial-

UART Bypass Mode
In bypass mode, the serializer/deserializer ignore UART
commands from the FC and the FC communicates with
the peripherals directly using its own defined UART pro-
tocol. The FC 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 PCLKIN period Q10ns of jitter due
to the asynchronous sampling of the UART signal by
PCLKIN. Set MS = high to put the control channel into
bypass mode. For applications with the FC connected to
the deserializer, there is a 1ms wait time between setting
MS high and the bypass control channel being active.
There is no delay time when switching to bypass mode
when the FC is connected to the serializer. Do not send
a logic-low value longer than 100Fs to ensure proper
GPO functionality. Bypass mode accepts bit rates down
to 10kbps in either direction. See the GPO/GPI Control
section for GPO functionality limitations. The control-
channel data pattern should not be held low longer than
100Fs if GPO control is used.
As shown in Figure 22, the remote-side device converts
packets going to or coming from the peripherals from
UART format to I2C format and vice versa. The remote
device removes the byte number count and adds or
receives the ACK between the data bytes of I2C. The I2C
bit rate is the same as the UART bit rate.
Interfacing Command-Byte-Only I2C
Devices with UART
The serializer/deserializer UART-to-I2C conversion can
interface with devices that do not require register address-
es, such as the MAX7324 GPIO expander. In this mode,
the I2C master ignores the register address byte and
directly reads/writes the subsequent data bytes (Figure 23).
Change the communication method of the I2C master using
the I2CMETHOD bit. I2CMETHOD = 1 sets command-byte-
only mode, while I2CMETHOD = 0 sets normal mode where
the first byte in the data stream is the register address.

I2C Interface
In I2C-to-I2C mode, the serializer control-channel inter-
face sends and receives data through an I2C-compatible
2-wire interface. The interface uses a serial-data line
(SDA) and a serial-clock line (SCL) to achieve bidirec-
tional communication between master and slave(s). A FC
master initiates all data transfers to and from the device
and generates the SCL clock that synchronizes the data
transfer. When an I2C transaction starts on the local-side
device’s control-channel port, the remote-side device’s
control-channel port becomes an I2C master that inter-
faces with remote-side I2C peripherals. The I2C master
must accept clock stretching that is imposed by the seri-
alizer (holding SCL low). The SDA and SCL lines operate
as both an input and an open-drain output. Pullup resis-
tors are required on SDA and SCL. Each transmission
consists of a START condition (Figure 6) sent by a mas-
ter, 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
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 24). 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.
Bit Transfer
One data bit is transferred during each clock pulse
(Figure 25). The data on SDA must remain stable while
SCL is high.
Acknowledge
The acknowledge bit is a clocked 9th bit that the recipient
uses to handshake receipt of each byte of data (Figure 26).
Thus, each byte transferred effectively requires nine bits.
The master generates the 9th clock pulse, and the recipi-
ent 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 acknowledge bit

vent acknowledge generation when the forward control

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
Slave Address
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 10000001 for read com-
mands and 10000000 for write commands. See Figure 27.

I2C Communication with Remote-Side Devices
The serializer supports I2C communication with a periph-
eral on the remote side of the communication link using
SCL clock stretching. While multiple masters can reside
on either side of the communication link, arbitration is not
provided. The connected masters need to support SCL
clock stretching. The remote-side I2C bit-rate range must
be set according to the local-side I2C bit rate. Supported
remote-side bit rates can be found in Table 4. Set the
I2CMSTBT (register 0x0D) to set the remote I2C bit-rate. If
using a bit rate different than 400kbps, local- and remote-
side I2C setup and hold times should be adjusted by set-
ting the SLV_SH register settings on both sides.
beyond storing the register address (Figure 28). Any
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 29). If multiple data bytes
are transmitted before a STOP condition, these bytes
are stored in subsequent registers because the register
addresses autoincrement.
Format for Reading
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 30). 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.
I2C Address Translation
The serializer supports I2C address translation for up to
two device addresses. Use address translation to assign
unique device addresses to peripherals with limited
I2C 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.

22-Bit GMSL Serializer with Coax or
STP Cable Drive
Control-Channel Broadcast Mode
Pre/Deemphasis Driver
The serial line driver employs current-mode logic (CML)
signaling. The driver is differential when programmed
for twisted-pair cable. When programmed for coax, one
side of the CML driver is used. The line driver has pro-
grammable pre/deemphasis that modifies the output to
compensate for cable length. There are 13 preemphasis
settings, as shown in Table 5. Negative preemphasis
levels are deemphasis levels where the preemphasized
swing level is the same as normal swing, but the no-
transition data (e.g., a 1 followed by a 1) is deempha-
sized. Program the preemphasis levels through register
0x06 D[3:0] of the serializer. This preemphasis function
compensates the high-frequency loss of the cable and
enables reliable transmission over longer link distances.
Current drive for both TP and coax modes is program-
mable. CMLLVL bits (0x06, D[7:4]) program drive current
in TP and coax modes for single-ended voltage swings
from 100mV to 500mV.
The serializer supports broadcast commands to control
multiple peripheral devices. Select an unused device
address to use as a broadcast device address. Program
the remote-side GMSL device to translate the broadcast
device address (source address stored in registers 0x09,
0x0B) to the peripheral device address (destination
address stored in register 0x0A, 0x0C). Any commands
sent to the broadcast address are sent to all designated
peripherals, while commands sent to a peripheral’s unique
device address are sent to that particular device only.
GPO/GPI Control
GPO on the serializer follows GPI transitions on the dese-
rializer. 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
time between GPI transitions to a minimum 0.35ms. This
includes transitions from the other deserializer in the
coax-mode splitter. Bit D4 of register 0x0E in the deserial-
izer stores the GPI input state. GPO is low after power-up.
The FC can set GPO by writing to the SET_GPO register
bit. Do not send a logic-low value on the serializer RX/
SDA input (UART mode) longer than 100Fs in either base
or bypass mode to ensure proper GPO/GPI functionality.
Spread Spectrum
To reduce the EMI generated by the transitions on the
serial link, the serializer output is programmable for
spread spectrum. If the deserializer driven by the serial-
izer has programmable spread spectrum, do not enable
spread for both at the same time or their interaction

The programmable spread-spectrum amplitudes are

Some spread-spectrum amplitudes can only be used at
lower PCLKIN frequencies (Table 7). There is no PCLKIN
frequency limit for the Q0.5ꢀ spread rate.
Manual Programming of the
Spread-Spectrum Divider
The modulation rate relates to the PCLKIN frequency as
follows:
f
PCLKIN
f
= (1+ DRS)
M
MOD x SDIV
where:
When the spread spectrum is turned on or off, the serial
link stops for several microseconds and then restarts in
order for the deserializer to lose and relock to the new
serial-data stream.
fM = Modulation frequency
DRS = DRS value (0 or 1)
f
PCLKIN = PCLKIN frequency
The serializer includes a sawtooth divider to control the
spread-modulation rate. Autodetection of the PCLKIN
operation range guarantees a spread-spectrum modu-
lation 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 PCLKIN frequency. When ranges are
manually selected, program the SDIV value for a fixed
modulation frequency around 20kHz.
MOD = Modulation coefficient given in Table 8
SDIV = 6-bit SDIV setting, manually programmed by the FC
To program the SDIV setting, first look up the modula-
tion coefficient according to the desired bus-width and
spread-spectrum settings. Solve the above equation for
SDIV using the desired pixel clock and modulation fre-
quencies. If the calculated SDIV value is larger than the
maximum allowed SDIV value in Table 8, set SDIV to the
maximum value.

Hamming Code
Hamming code is a simple and effective error-correction
code to detect and/or correct errors. The MAX9273 seri-
alizer (when used with the MAX9272 GMSL deserializer)

The serializer uses data interleaving for burst-error toler-
ance. Burst errors up to 11 consecutive bits on the serial
link are corrected, and burst errors up to 31 consecutive
bits are detected.

Hamming code adds overhead similar to CRC. See Table 2
for details regarding the available input word size.
Additional Error Detection and Correction
In default mode (additional error detection and correction
disabled), data encoding/decoding is the same as in pre-
vious GMSL serializers/deserializers (parity only). At the
serializer, the parallel input word is scrambled and a par-
ity bit 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 and/or Tracking
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 1 pixel of data per HS/
VS transition, versus 8-bit data with a clock up to 100MHz
without HS/VS encoding. The deserializer performs HV
decoding, tracks the period of the HV signals, and uses
voting to filter HS/VS bit errors. When using HV encod-
ing, use a minimum low-pulse duration of two PCLKIN
cycles when DBL = 0 on the MAX9271/MAX9273. When
DBL = 1, use a minimum HS/VS low-pulse duration of
five PCLKIN cycles and a minimum high-pulse duration
of two PCLKIN cycles. When using hamming code and
HS/VS encoding, do not send more than two transitions
every 16 PCLKIN cycles.
The serializer can use of of two additional error-detection/
correction methods (selectable by register setting):
1) 6-bit cyclic redundancy check
2) 6-bit hamming code with 16-word interleaving
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 available for
input data instead of 22 bits when BWS = 0, and 24 bits
instead of 30 bits when BWS = 1.
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 PCLKIN cycles.
If HS/VS tracking is used without HV encoding, use DIN0
for HSYNC and DIN1 for VSYNC. In this case, if DBL
values on the serializer and the deserializer are different,
set the deserializer’s UNEQDBL register bit to 1. If the

send control data to one deserializer. Leave all unused
IN_ pins unconnected, or connect them to ground
through 50Iand a capacitor for increased power-supply

through a 50I resistor (Figure 32). When there are FCs

channel link to prevent contention. Use the DIS_REV_P or

on the side that has DBL = 1. HS/VS encoding sends
packets when HSYNC or VSYNC is low, use HS/VS inver-
sion register bits if the input HSYNC and VSYNC signals
use an active-low convention to send data packets dur-
ing the inactive pixel clock periods.
Serial Output
The driver output is programmable for two types of cable:
100I twisted pair and 50I coax (contact the factory for
serializers with 75Icable drive).
Configuration Inputs (CONF1, CONF0)
CONF1 and CONF0 determine the power-up values of the
serial output type, the input data latch, and the control-
channel interface type (Table 9). These functions can
be changed after power-up by writing to the appropriate
register bits

In coax mode, OUT+ and OUT- are active. This enables
use as a 1:2 splitter (Figure 31). In coax mode, connect

control channel. To wake up the device, send an arbitrary
control-channel command to the serializer. Wait 5ms
for the chip to power up and then write 0 to the SLEEP
register bit to make the wake-up permanent.
Sleep Mode
The serializer includes a sleep mode to reduce power
consumption. The device enters or exits sleep mode by
a command from a local FC or a remote FC using the
control channel. Set the SLEEP bit to 1 to initiate sleep
mode. The serializer sleeps immediately after setting
its SLEEP = 1. The OUT+ and OUT- serial outputs each
have wake-up receiver to accept wake-up commands
from the attached deserializers. On power-up, the OUT+
wake-up receiver is enabled and the OUT- wake-up
receiver is disabled. Disable the wake-up receivers
(through ENWAKEP or ENWAKEN) if the devices are
disconnected or wake-up is not used in order to reduce
sleep-mode current. If both wake-up receivers are

The serializer has a power-down mode that further reduc-
es power consumption compared to sleep mode. Set

acknowledge frame is not generated when communica-
tion fails due to contention. If communication across the
serial link is not required, the FCs 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 FCs cannot occur.
As an example of dual FC use in an image-sensing appli-
cation, the serializer can be in sleep mode, waiting for
wake-up by the FC on the deserializer side. After wake-
up, the serializer-side FC assumes master control of the
serializer’s registers.
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 configura-
tion registers before starting the video link. An internal
oscillator provides the clock for configuration link. Set
CLINKEN = 1 on the serializer to enable configuration
link. Configuration link is active until the video link is
enabled. The video link overrides the configuration link
and attempts to lock when SEREN = 1.
Link Startup Procedure
Table 10 lists the start-up procedure for video-display
applications. Table 11 lists the startup procedure for
image-sensing applications. The control channel is avail-
able after the video link or the configuration link is estab-
lished. If the deserializer powers up after the serializer,
the control channel becomes unavailable until 2ms after
power-up.
Jitter-Filtering PLL
In some applications, the clock input (PCLKIN) includes
noise, which reduces link reliability. The clock input has a
programmable narrowband jitter-filter PLL that attenuates
frequencies higher than 100kHz (typ). Enable the jitter-
filter by setting ENJITFILT = 1 (0x05, D6).
PCLKIN Spread Tracking
The serializer can operate with a spread PCLKIN signal.
When using a spread PCLKIN signal, disable the jitter-
filter by setting ENJITFILT = 0 (0x05, D6). Do not exceed
the spread limitations in Table 7 and keep modulation
less than 40kHz. In addition, turn off spread spectrum
in the serializer/deserializer. The serializer/deserializer
track the spread on PCLKIN.
Applications Information
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 deserial-
izer and then in the serializer. To exit the PRBS test, set
PRBSEN = 0 (0x04, D5) in the serializer.
Changing the Clock Frequency
It is recommended that the serial link be enabled after
the video clock (fPCLKIN) and the control-channel clock
(fUART/fI2C) are stable. When changing clock frequency,
stop the video clock for 5Fs, apply the clock at the new
frequency, then restart the serial link or toggle SEREN.
On-the-fly changes in clock frequency are possible if
the new frequency is immediately stable and without
glitches. The reverse control channel remains unavail-
able for 350Fs after serial link start or stop. When using
the UART interface, limit on-the-fly changes in fUART to
factors 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.
Error Generator
The serializer contains an error generator that enables
repeatable testing of the error-detection/correction fea-
tures of the GMSL link. Register 0x11 stores the configu-
ration bits for the error generator. A FC sets the error-
generation rate, type of errors, and the total number of
errors. The error generator is off by default.
Dual µC Control
Usually systems have one FC to run the control channel,
located on the serializer side for video-display appli-
cations or on the deserializer side for image-sensing
applications. However, a FC can reside on each side
simultaneously and trade off running the control channel.
In this case, each FC can communicate with the serializer
and deserializer and any peripheral devices.
Fast Detection of Loss-of-Synchronization
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 deserializer’s GPI input. If LOCK is lost, GPO on the
Contention occurs if both FCs 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.
In addition, the control channel does not provide arbitra-
tion between I2C masters on both sides of the link. An

sources also use the GPI input, the FC can implement
a routine to distinguish between interrupts from loss-of-
lock and normal interrupts. The control channel does not
require an active video link and thus can always monitor
LOCK. LOCK asserts for a synchronized video link but
not for the configuration link.
Three-Level Configuration Inputs
CONF1 and CONF0 are three-level inputs that control
the serial interface configuration and power-up defaults.
Connect CONF1or CONF0 through a pullup resistor to
IOVDD to set a high level, a pulldown resistor to GND to
set a low level, or IOVDD/2 or open to set a midlevel. For
digital control, use three-state logic to drive the three-
level logic inputs.
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 275Fs. Skew between multiple GPI/GPO
channels is maximum 115Fs. If a lower skew signal is
required, connect the camera’s frame sync input to one
of the serializer’s GPIOs and use an I2C broadcast write
command to change the GPIO output state. This has a
maximum skew of 1.5Fs, independent from the used I2C
bit rate.
Configuration Blocking
The serializer 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.
Compatibility with Other GMSL Devices
The MAX9273 serializer is designed to pair with the
MAX9272 deserializer, but interoperates with any GMSL
deserializer. See Table 12 for operating limitations.
Software Programming of the
Device Addresses
GPIOs
The serializer has five open-drain GPIOs available when
not used as data or configuration inputs. Setting the GPIO
enable bits (register 0x0E) to 1 enables the GPIOs and
internally connects the respective data or configuration
input low. 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 enabled when the GPIO is
enabled. The input states are stored in register 0x10. Set
GPIO_OUT to 1 when using a GPIO_ as an input.
The serializer and deserializer have programmable device
addresses. This allows multiple GMSL devices, along with
I2C 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 deserializer for deserializer device
address change). Then write the same address into the

and the series AC-coupling capacitors (C). The RC time
constant for four equal-value series capacitors is (C x
(RTD + RTR))/4. RTD and RTR are required to match the
transmission line impedance (usually 100I differential,
50I single-ended). This leaves the capacitor selection
to change the system time constant. Use 0.2FF 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.
Choosing I2C/UART Pullup Resistors
The I2C 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 compro-
mise may be required when choosing pullup resistor
values. Every device connected to the bus introduces
some capacitance even when the device is not in opera-
tion. I2C specifies 300ns rise times (30ꢀ to 70ꢀ) for fast
mode, which is defined for data rates up to 400kbps (see
the I2C specifications in the AC Electrical Characteristics
table for details). To meet the fast-mode rise-time require-
Power-Supply Circuits and Bypassing
The serializer uses an AVDD and DVDD of 1.7V to 1.9V.
All inputs and outputs, except for the serial output, 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.
ment, choose the pullup resistors so that rise time tR
=
0.85 x RPULLUP x CBUS < 300ns. The waveforms are not
recognized if the transition time becomes too slow. The
serializer supports I2C/UART rates up to 1Mbps (UART-
to-I2C mode) and 400kbps (I2C-to-I2C mode).
Power-Supply Table
Power-supply currents shown in the Electrical
Characteristics table are the sum of the currents from
AVDD, DVDD, and IOVDD. Typical currents from the
individual power supplies are shown in Table 13.
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 battery. AC-coupling
blocks low-frequency ground shifts and low-frequency
common-mode noise.
Cables and Connectors
Interconnect for CML typically has a differential imped-
ance of 100I. Use cables and connectors that have
matched differential impedance to minimize impedance
discontinuities. Coax cables typically have a characteristic
impedance of 50I(contact the factory for 75Ioperation).
Table 14 lists the suggested cables and connectors used
in the GMSL link.
Selection of AC-Coupling Capacitors
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
(RTR), the CML/coax driver termination resistor (RTD),

do not have 100I differential impedance when brought
close together—the impedance goes down when the
traces are brought closer. Use a 50Itrace for the single-
ended output when driving coax.
Board Layout
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 100I differential characteristic impedance.
The trace dimensions depend on the type of trace used
(microstrip or stripline). Note that two 50I PCB traces
Route the PCB traces for differential CML in parallel to
maintain the differential characteristic impedance. Avoid
vias. Keep PCB traces that make up a differential pair
equal length to avoid skew within the differential pair.
ESD Protection
ESD tolerance is rated for Human Body Model, IEC
61000-4-2, and ISO 10605. The ISO 10605 and IEC
61000-4-2 standards specify ESD tolerance for electronic
systems. The serial outputs are rated for ISO 10605 ESD
protection and IEC 61000-4-2 ESD protection. All pins
are tested for the Human Body Model. The Human Body
Model discharge components are CS = 100pF and RD =
1.5kI(Figure 34). The IEC 61000-4-2 discharge compo-
nents are CS = 150pF and RD = 330I (Figure 35). The
