MAX9258GCM+T

Serializers, Deserializers Overview

The MAX9258GCM+T is a programmable deserializer from the MAX9257/MAX9258 SerDes chipset, manufactured by Analog Devices Inc./Maxim Integrated. It converts one LVDS input into eighteen LVCMOS outputs at a data rate of 840Mbps. The device operates on a supply voltage ranging from 1.71V to 3.6V and supports an extended industrial temperature range of -40°C to +105°C. Packaged in a 48-LQFP (7x7) surface-mount format, it integrates UART/I2C control channels for configuration without external interfaces.

Serializers, Deserializers Feature Summary

• Integrates UART and I2C control channels for bidirectional digital video link management between automotive ECUs and cameras.
• Supports DC-balanced communication over twisted pair or differential cables using high-speed LVDS signaling.
• Enables frame-to-frame camera configuration via integrated control channels, eliminating the need for external CAN or LIN interfaces.

Serializers, Deserializers Applications

• Automotive electronic control unit (ECU) and camera interconnect systems
• Bidirectional digital video links in automotive environments
• Camera configuration and control in vehicle vision systems

Serializers, Deserializers Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity through authorized distributors or direct manufacturer channels due to end-of-life status. Confirm package integrity and pin alignment against the 48-LQFP specification. Check RoHS compliance documentation for REACH and environmental standards. Validate part markings against official datasheet identifiers to prevent counterfeit substitution.

Serializers, Deserializers Selection Notes

Select this deserializer when interfacing with compatible MAX9257 serializers in automotive applications requiring integrated control channels. Ensure system power supplies accommodate the 1.71V to 3.6V operating range. Verify that the target application utilizes LVDS inputs and requires LVCMOS outputs for downstream logic processing.

Serializers, Deserializers Part Context

This component belongs to the MAX9257/MAX9258 SerDes chipset family designed for automotive use. It pairs with the MAX9257 serializer to form a complete video link solution. The MAX9258 specifically functions as the deserializer side of this paired architecture, simplifying design by integrating necessary control protocols directly onto the chip.
