Serializer for high-speed parallel-to-LVDS conversion
The Maxim Integrated MAX9217ECM+T is a serialiser that takes 27 parallel LVCMOS or LVTTL inputs and serialises them onto a single LVDS output pair at up to 700 Mbps. It is designed for applications where a wide parallel bus must be reduced to a single differential pair — think camera modules, flat-panel display links, or any video/imaging pipeline where board space and cable count are tight. Operating from 3V to 3.6V and rated from -40°C to 85°C, it suits industrial environments like factory automation, outdoor surveillance, or machine vision systems.
For BOM planning, this part can be qualified into new designs without worrying about near-term obsolescence.
