MAX9295DGTM/VY+T

Overview

The MAX9295DGTM/VY+T is a GMSL2 dual CSI-2 serializer designed for automotive applications. It converts MIPI CSI-2 data streams to GMSL2 or GMSL1 formats, supporting full-duplex transmission over coaxial or shielded twisted pair cables exceeding 15 meters. The device operates at forward rates of 3Gbps or 6Gbps and a reverse rate of 187.5Mbps in GMSL2 mode. It features two 4-lane MIPI CSI-2 v1.3 ports with D-PHY v1.2 support (80Mbps to 2.5Gbps per lane). The component is AEC-Q100 Grade 2 qualified and functions within an operating temperature range of -40°C to +105°C.

Feature Summary

• Dual 4-lane MIPI CSI-2 input ports supporting virtual channels and various video data types
• Selectable GMSL2 operation at 3/6Gbps or backward-compatible GMSL1 mode
• ASIL-B compliant functional safety features including CRC protection and watermarking
• Integrated crosspoint switch for flexible input-to-output remapping

Applications

• Co-Located Sensors
• Stereo Camera Systems
• Side Mirror Cameras
• Radar Systems
• LiDAR Systems

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against official Analog Devices documentation to confirm package type and RoHS compliance status. Ensure compatibility with system voltage requirements before procurement. Confirm availability through authorized distributors as supply levels may vary. Validate that the selected variant meets all automotive qualification standards required for the target application environment.

Selection Notes

Select this serializer when dual high-speed camera inputs are required for a single GMSL link. Consider the backward compatibility with GMSL1 deserializers if integrating with legacy components. Evaluate cable length requirements against attenuation specifications for the chosen media type. Ensure the host system supports the necessary control channel protocols such as I2C or UART for configuration.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Maxim Integrated GMSL family, specifically engineered for automotive vision systems. It serves as a serializer counterpart to GMSL deserializers like the MAX9296 series. The device enables long-distance, high-bandwidth video transmission while maintaining bidirectional control capabilities essential for modern automotive sensor fusion architectures.
