AD-GMSL793MIPI-EVK
Overview
Features and Benefits
- MAX96793-based MIPI CSI-2 to GMSL3/GMSL2 serializer
- 12Gbps GMSL3 forward link, backward compatible with 6Gbps / 3Gbps GMSL2
- Single MIPI CSI-2 input with support for up to 4 D-PHY lanes at 2.5Gbps per lane
- Single GMSL output over 50Ω coax
- 187.5Mbps bidirectional control channel with I²C and GPIO support
- Compact camera-side EVK form factor based on the AD-GMSL717MIPI-EVK concept
Product Details
The AD-GMSL793MIPI-EVK is a compact evaluation board that bridges a MIPI CSI-2 camera interface to a single GMSL3 or GMSL2 serial link using the MAX96793 serializer. It is the next-generation counterpart to the AD-GMSL717MIPI-EVK concept, extending the serializer side from GMSL2 to GMSL3 at up to 12Gbps forward-link rate, while retaining backward compatibility with GMSL2 at 6Gbps or 3Gbps for broader ecosystem support.
The board is intended for rapid evaluation of MIPI camera modules in systems that use GMSL transport to connect remote cameras to centralized processing platforms. Like the AD-GMSL717MIPI-EVK, the board is designed around a compact mechanical format for easy integration into robotics, machine vision, automotive prototyping, and embedded imaging systems.
When paired with a compatible deserializer platform such as the AD-GMSL792MIPI-EVK board, the AD-GMSL793MIPI-EVK can be used as the serializer-side endpoint in a complete MIPI-to-GMSL3/GMSL2-to-MIPI evaluation chain.
APPLICATIONS
- Advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) camera prototyping
- Embedded vision and robotics
- Industrial automation and machine vision
- High-resolution remote cameras and distributed sensing nodes
- Development of next-generation GMSL3 camera links with fallback to GMSL2
