Overview
MAX96711GTJ+ from Maxim Integrated is a 14-bit GMSL serializer designed for automotive camera links, supporting up to 116MHz parallel clock (12-bit linear/HDR), 1.74Gbps serial bit rate, and line-fault detection on coax/STP cables. It operates from -40°C to +115°C, meets AEC-Q100 Grade 2, and drives low-cost 50Ω coax or 100Ω STP cabling in safety-critical ADAS camera systems.
For engineers reviewing the MAX96711GTJ+ datasheet, MAX96711GTJ+ pinout, MAX96711GTJ+ application, or MAX96711GTJ+ equivalent, this page delivers verified technical context, validated pin functions, real-world automotive use cases, and confirmed alternative serializers with documented functional differences - all grounded in the official MAX96711 datasheet Rev 2 (2/17).
Technical Context
The MAX96711GTJ+ implements a GMSL (Gigabit Multimedia Serial Link) physical layer with embedded bidirectional control channel (UART/I²C/mixed mode, 9.6kbps–1Mbps) independent of video timing. Its crosspoint switch accepts arbitrary input bitmap mapping, and internal encoding enables 36.66–116MHz pixel clock support for 12-bit + H/V sync data.
It features programmable pre/deemphasis for 15m cable drive at full speed, spread-spectrum modulation synchronized to parallel input timing, and robust EMC tolerance via high-immunity control-channel mode with automatic packet retransmission on CRC error detection.

FAQ
What is the maximum supported pixel clock frequency for MAX96711GTJ+ in high-bandwidth mode?
The MAX96711GTJ+ supports up to 116MHz parallel pixel clock in high-bandwidth mode for 12-bit linear or combined HDR data types. This enables transmission of 4MP resolution video at 30fps with minimal latency. The actual achievable clock depends on sensor output format, bus width configuration, and internal encoding mode selected via the link_config register.
Does MAX96711GTJ+ support both coaxial and STP cable types?
Yes, MAX96711GTJ+ is explicitly designed to drive both 50Ω coaxial and 100Ω shielded twisted-pair (STP) cables. Cable type is configured via the cxtp register (0x4D), and pre/deemphasis settings are optimized per medium to maintain signal integrity over distances up to 15m at full speed.
How does the line-fault detection feature work on MAX96711GTJ+?
The MAX96711GTJ+ integrates dedicated line-fault circuitry that continuously monitors the serial link for opens, shorts-to-battery, and shorts-to-ground conditions. Fault status is reported on the LF_DET pin and also accessible via the lf register (0xC8). This enables real-time cable health monitoring critical for ASIL-B compliant systems.
Can MAX96711GTJ+ be used with non-Maxim deserializers?
MAX96711GTJ+ is fully compatible with Maxim's GMSL deserializers including MAX96706, MAX96707, and MAX96712. Interoperability with third-party GMSL1 deserializers depends on strict adherence to the GMSL1 specification; however, only Maxim's own devices guarantee full register-level and timing-level compatibility per the datasheet.
What power supply sequencing is required for MAX96711GTJ+?
No strict power sequencing is mandated for MAX96711GTJ+. VCC_CORE (1.7V–1.9V) and VCC_IO (1.7V–3.6V) may be powered in any order. However, stable supplies must be present before applying CLKIN or parallel video data. The device includes internal power-on reset and brownout detection to ensure reliable initialization.
