Product details
Overview
DS90UB936TRGZTQ1 from Texas Instruments is an AEC-Q100 Grade 2 automotive dual-channel FPD-Link III deserializer hub with MIPI CSI-2 outputs, supporting up to 2.528 Gbps per channel over coaxial or STP cables, featuring adaptive equalization, 2×2 output replication, and ECC/CRC for ADAS camera data aggregation.
For engineers reviewing the DS90UB936TRGZTQ1 datasheet, DS90UB936TRGZTQ1 pinout, DS90UB936TRGZTQ1 application, or DS90UB936TRGZTQ1 equivalent, key selection criteria include CSI-2 lane scalability (400–1600 Mbps/lane), dual-Rx port latency, AEC-Q100 temperature range (–40°C to +105°C), and compatibility with DS90UB935-Q1/DS90UB953-Q1 serializers in Power-over-Coax systems.
Technical Context
The DS90UB936TRGZTQ1 implements two independent FPD-Link III receivers with adaptive equalization for loss compensation across 50-Ω coax or 100-Ω STP cables, each feeding a configurable MIPI D-PHY v1.2 transmitter compliant with CSI-2 v1.3. It supports four virtual channels, programmable data types, and dual-clock-lane replication mode for parallel video stream delivery.
Its bidirectional control channel (BCC) carries I²C, GPIO, and diagnostic signals at up to 10 Mbps non-synchronous rate, while integrated line fault detection, lock monitoring (LOCK pin), and pass/fail reporting (PASS pin) enable real-time link health assessment in safety-critical automotive vision systems.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar FPD-Link III deserializer applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| DS90UB954TRGZTQ1 | Single-input (not dual), supports higher 4.16 Gbps FPD-Link III rate and C-PHY v1.2 output | Targeted for ultra-HD front camera with C-PHY SoC interface; lacks replication mode and second Rx port | Select when bandwidth >2.528 Gbps is required and dual-input aggregation is unnecessary |
| DS90UB964TRGZTQ1 | Quad-input deserializer hub with four independent FPD-Link III receivers and four CSI-2 ports | Designed for 8+ MP surround-view or LIDAR fusion systems; larger 64-pin VQFN and higher power consumption | Select for systems requiring >2 camera inputs without external multiplexing or cascading |
Compared with DS90UB936TRGZTQ1, DS90UB954TRGZTQ1 offers higher per-port bandwidth but no replication or dual-Rx capability, while DS90UB964TRGZTQ1 scales to four inputs at the cost of board area and thermal management complexity - DS90UB936TRGZTQ1 remains optimal for cost- and space-constrained dual-camera ADAS nodes.

FAQ
What is the maximum supported MIPI CSI-2 data rate per lane for DS90UB936TRGZTQ1?
The DS90UB936TRGZTQ1 supports configurable MIPI CSI-2 data rates of 400 Mbps, 800 Mbps, 1.5 Gbps, or 1.6 Gbps per lane - validated per MIPI D-PHY v1.2 specification. This allows flexible matching to downstream SoC receiver capabilities and sensor output formats, with 1.6 Gbps/lane enabling full 2.528 Gbps aggregate throughput in 2-lane mode. The DS90UB936TRGZTQ1 registers must be configured accordingly to select the desired lane rate.
Does DS90UB936TRGZTQ1 support Power-over-Coax (PoC) operation?
Yes, DS90UB936TRGZTQ1 is explicitly designed for Power-over-Coax applications. Its FPD-Link III receivers accept 50-Ω single-ended coaxial cable inputs, and its adaptive equalizer automatically compensates for cable loss without firmware intervention - including degradation over time. When paired with compatible PoC-enabled serializers like DS90UB935-Q1, DS90UB936TRGZTQ1 enables simplified cabling by delivering both power and high-speed video over a single coax conductor.
How does the 2×2 output replication mode work in DS90UB936TRGZTQ1?
In 2×2 replication mode, DS90UB936TRGZTQ1 duplicates a single FPD-Link III input stream into two independent MIPI CSI-2 outputs: one using CSI_CLK0P/N and CSI_D0P/N–CSI_D1P/N, and the second using CSI_CLK1P/N and CSI_D2P/N–CSI_D3P/N. This enables concurrent delivery of identical video data to separate processing domains - such as infotainment display and autonomous driving ECU - without external hardware duplication. Replication is enabled via register configuration and requires no additional clock or data routing.
Which serializers are compatible with DS90UB936TRGZTQ1?
DS90UB936TRGZTQ1 is documented as compatible with DS90UB935-Q1, DS90UB953-Q1, DS90UB933-Q1, and DS90UB913A-Q1 serializers. These devices share FPD-Link III protocol timing, control channel (BCC) structure, and electrical specifications - ensuring interoperability in multi-camera systems. Compatibility is confirmed in TI's official documentation and includes support for features like GPIO forwarding, line fault detection, and bidirectional I²C tunneling over the link.
What is the purpose of the PASS and LOCK pins on DS90UB936TRGZTQ1?
The LOCK pin outputs HIGH when the DS90UB936TRGZTQ1 receiver achieves and maintains bit-lock on the incoming FPD-Link III stream - serving as real-time link status indicator. The PASS pin outputs HIGH when the forward channel payload passes ECC/CRC validation, confirming error-free data transmission. Both pins can be configured to report logical AND status across both Rx ports, enabling system-level health monitoring without host processor polling. These signals are essential for ASIL-B diagnostic coverage in automotive ADAS applications.
