3.12 Gbps serial link — what it buys you
The 3.12 Gbps serial data rate supports 1080p video with embedded audio and control data over a single coax. The HDMI input accepts standard HDMI sources.
Package and layout notes
The 56-TQFN (8x8 mm) with exposed pad requires a solid ground-plane connection and thermal vias under the pad to keep junction temperature within limits at 105°C ambient.
Lifecycle and compliance
It is ROHS3 compliant. No official second source is listed, but the GMSL serializer family from Analog Devices is widely used in automotive tier-one designs.
