700 Mbps deserializer for serial-link chipset
The MAX9218ECM+T is a single-channel LVDS deserializer from Analog Devices, rated for a serial data rate of 700 Mbps. It converts one LVDS serial stream into 27 parallel LVCMOS or LVTTL outputs. The 700 Mbps ceiling sets the maximum pixel clock or data throughput the link can sustain — for a 24-bit RGB video stream with sync bits, this comfortably supports resolutions up to WXGA at 60 Hz without compression.
Runs on a single 3V to 3.6V supply rail, which aligns with common 3.3V logic domains and avoids the need for a separate 1.8V or 2.5V regulator.
Supplied in a 48-LQFP (7x7 mm) package with a 0.50 mm pitch — surface-mount only. The tape-and-reel option suits automated pick-and-place; cut-tape available for prototypes.
