MAX96711
14-Bit GMSL Serializer with High-Immunity/
Bandwidth Mode and Coax/STP Cable Drive
General Description
Benefits and Features
● Ideal for Safety Camera Applications
The MAX96711 is a compact serializer with features espe-
cially suited for automotive camera applications. In high-
bandwidth mode, the parallel-clock maximum is 116MHz
for 12-bit linear or combined HDR data types. Line-fault
circuitry detects open/short faults on the link cable.
• Works with Low-Cost 50Ω Coax (100Ω STP) Cables
• Error Detection of Video/Control Data
• High-Immunity Mode for Robust Control-Channel
EMC Tolerance
• Retransmission of Control Data Upon Error
Detection
• Best-in-Class Supply Current: 93mA (max)
• Pre/Deemphasis Allows 15m Cable at Full Speed
• 32-Pin (5mm x 5mm) TQFN Package with 0.5mm
Lead Pitch
The embedded control channel operates at 9.6kbps to

1Mbps in UART, I C, and mixed UART/I C modes, allow-
ing programming of serializer, deserializer, and camera
registers independent of video timing.
For driving longer cables, the IC has programmable
pre/deemphasis. Programmable spread spectrum is
available on the serial output. The serial output meets
ISO 10605 and IEC 61000-4-2 ESD standards. The core
supply range is 1.7V to 1.9V, and the I/O supply range is
1.7V to 3.6V.
● High-Speed Data Serialization for Megapixel
Cameras
• Up to 1.74Gbps Serial-Bit Rate
• 12.5MHz to 87MHz x 12-Bit + H/V Data
• 36.66MHz to 116MHz x 12-Bit + H/V Data
(through Internal Encoding)
The MAX96711 is available in a 32-pin (5mm x 5mm)
TQFN package with 0.5mm lead pitch, and operates over
the -40°C to +115°C temperature range.
● Multiple Modes for System Flexibility
