MAX9258AGCM/V+

Serializers, Deserializers Overview

The MAX9258AGCM/V+ is a fully programmable deserializer from the MAX9257A/MAX9258A family, designed to pair with the MAX9257A serializer. It supports parallel data widths of 10, 12, 14, 16, and 18 bits, accommodating up to 20 bits per pixel including encoding bits. The device operates at serial data rates up to 840Mbps with a parallel clock frequency range of 5MHz to 70MHz. It features an integrated control channel for bidirectional UART/I2C communication over the same differential pair used for video data. Power supplies include a 3.0V to 3.6V core supply (VCC) and a 1.71V to 3.6V I/O supply (VCCOUT). The component is housed in a 48-pin LQFP package and is specified for operation between -40°C and +105°C.

Serializers, Deserializers Feature Summary

• Integrated control channel enables bidirectional UART or I2C communication over the video link without external interfaces.
• Programmable parallel data width supports 10, 12, 14, 16, and 18-bit configurations with parity protection options.
• DC-balanced coding allows AC-coupling and reduces inter-symbol interference.
• LVDS inputs meet ISO 10605 and IEC 61000-4-2 ESD protection standards.

Serializers, Deserializers Applications

• Automotive cameras
• Industrial cameras
• Navigation systems display
• In-vehicle entertainment systems

Serializers, Deserializers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'GCM/V+' against the manufacturer's official part numbering system to confirm package type and tape/reel specifications. Confirm RoHS compliance status as required by project regulations. Check for obsolescence notices, as this product line may have end-of-life implications. Ensure the ordering quantity matches the standard factory packaging requirements defined in the datasheet.

Serializers, Deserializers Selection Notes

Select the MAX9258AGCM/V+ when a deserializer is required to pair with the MAX9257A serializer for high-speed video links. Ensure the application requires a 48-pin LQFP package rather than the available 40-lead TQFN option. Verify that the system logic levels are compatible with the 1.71V to 3.6V VCCOUT supply range. Confirm that the parallel clock frequency falls within the 5MHz to 70MHz operational window.

Serializers, Deserializers Part Context

This component belongs to the MAX9257A/MAX9258A series of fully programmable serializers and deserializers. It is manufactured by Analog Devices Inc./Maxim Integrated. The device is part of a matched pair solution where the MAX9257A acts as the serializer and the MAX9258A functions as the deserializer. This pairing facilitates digital video transmission with embedded control capabilities.
