Product details
Overview
MAX96717FGTJ/VY+T from Analog Devices is a GMSL2 serializer that converts MIPI CSI-2 video input (up to 4-lane D-PHY v1.2, 2.5Gbps/lane) into a 3Gbps forward / 187.5Mbps reverse full-duplex GMSL2 serial link over coax or STP cables. It supports ASIL-B functional safety, includes dual I2C/UART pass-through channels, SPI tunneling, integrated ADC and temperature sensor, and operates across -40°C to +105°C for automotive ADAS camera systems.
For engineers reviewing the MAX96717FGTJ/VY+T datasheet, MAX96717FGTJ/VY+T pinout, MAX96717FGTJ/VY+T application, or MAX96717FGTJ/VY+T equivalent, key selection criteria include GMSL2 link rate compatibility, MIPI CSI-2 virtual channel support (16 VC), RoR clocking for crystal-free operation, side-channel peripheral interfacing capability, and AEC-Q100 Grade 2 qualification for automotive deployment.
Technical Context
The MAX96717FGTJ/VY+T implements a deterministic GMSL2 packet protocol with 9b10b encoding, R-S FEC for forward video/control data, and CRC protection for side-channel and video payloads. Its adaptive equalization (AEQ) and echo cancellation dynamically compensate for cable loss up to -19.5dB at 1.5GHz, enabling reliable 20m transmission over aged 50Ω foam-dielectric coax at +105°C.
It integrates a scheduler/arbiter for bandwidth sharing between pixel-mode video streams and tunneling-mode side-channel traffic, supports polarity flip and lane reassignment on MIPI input, and provides reference-over-reverse (RoR) clocking to eliminate external crystal requirements for image sensors - all while maintaining end-to-end data integrity via ECC, checksums, and local/remote error flagging.

FAQ
What is the maximum supported cable length for MAX96717FGTJ/VY+T over coax at +105°C?
The MAX96717FGTJ/VY+T supports up to 20m over 3.2mm Ø 50Ω foam-dielectric coax at +105°C, based on its -19.5dB insertion loss budget at 1.5GHz and adaptive equalization. This assumes aged cable conditions and worst-case attenuation of 1.1dB/m. For solid-dielectric coax or STP, maximum lengths reduce to 10m and 11m respectively under identical thermal conditions.
Does MAX96717FGTJ/VY+T support crystal-free operation for image sensors?
Yes, the MAX96717FGTJ/VY+T supports Reference Over Reverse (RoR) clocking, generating a precise, low-jitter reference clock for the image sensor directly from the GMSL2 reverse-link timing. This eliminates the need for an external crystal oscillator at the camera module, reducing BOM cost, PCB area, and potential failure points in harsh automotive environments.
How many virtual channels does MAX96717FGTJ/VY+T support on its MIPI CSI-2 interface?
The MAX96717FGTJ/VY+T supports 16 virtual channels on its MIPI CSI-2 input interface. This enables concurrent multiplexing of multiple video streams (e.g., RGB, depth, IR) or sensor data types within a single GMSL2 link - essential for multi-function camera modules used in ADAS and DMS applications.
What functional safety certifications apply to MAX96717FGTJ/VY+T?
The MAX96717FGTJ/VY+T is AEC-Q100 Grade 2 qualified and ASIL-B compliant per ISO 26262. Its functional safety features include end-to-end CRC protection, Reed-Solomon FEC for forward data, ECC and checksum-based error detection, and a comprehensive diagnostic register set - all validated for use in automotive safety-related systems.
Can MAX96717FGTJ/VY+T interface with peripherals via SPI tunneling?
Yes, the MAX96717FGTJ/VY+T provides transparent SPI tunneling functionality, allowing the host SoC to communicate directly with peripherals (e.g., ISP, PMIC, or LED drivers) located at the remote camera module over the GMSL2 link. This is implemented as a hardware-accelerated passthrough mode with configurable clock polarity and phase, preserving full SPI timing fidelity.
