Overview

Features and Benefits

  • Compact form-factor GMSL2 serializer board compatible with cameras having 15-pin MIPI CSI-2 ribbon cable interfaces
  • Allows interfacing of a wide range of cameras, including most of the Raspberry Pi cameras, to systems having GMSL2 receive interfaces
  • Implements Power over Cable (PoC) eliminating the need for external power supplies for the board itself and the connected camera

Product Details

The AD-GMSL717MIPI-EVK allows connecting a wide range of cameras with 15-pin MIPI CSI-2 ribbon cable interfaces to Analog Devices’ MAX96717 GMSL2 serializer, enabling connectivity to processing systems which have GMSL2 receive interfaces. Due to its compact form-factor and mounting holes, the board can be easily and securely integrated into vision systems with various requirements in terms of size, shape, and mobility. A detachable extension allows mounting on tripods with 1/4”-20 mounts.

System Features:

  • 1 x MIPI CSI (2 x lanes) 15-pin ribbon cable connector
  • 4 x MFP pins routed to the ribbon cable connector
  • 1 x FAKRA coaxial cable connector
  • Implements Power over Cable (PoC)
  • Mounting holes for easy and secure attach of all Raspberry Pi cameras form factors
  • Open-source reference software for all supported camera types targeting a range of compute platforms such as Nvidia SoCs, Raspberry Pi, and AMD SoCs

Applications:

  • High-Resolution Camera Systems
  • Autonomous Guided Vehicles
  • Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS)
