The IC component MAX924ESE+T is a high-speed, quad-channel serializer designed for automotive camera applications. It belongs to the Maxim Integrated family of products and offers various key features that make it suitable for use in car rear-view and surround-view systems, advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS), and autonomous vehicles.
The MAX924ESE+T supports the transmission of high-definition (HD) video and control data using a single coaxial cable or shielded twisted-pair (STP) cable. It is based on the MaximGMSL (Gigabit Multimedia Serial Link) technology, enabling robust and noise-immune data transfer over long distances in harsh automotive environments.
One of the notable features of the MAX924ESE+T is its capability to simultaneously transmit four parallel video streams up to 1.5 Gbps each. This enables the transmission of multiple video inputs from different cameras to a central processing unit (CPU). The IC supports various video formats, including raw RGB, YUV, and compressed video formats.
Another important feature is the built-in digital control interface, which allows easy control and configuration of the serializer. The MAX924ESE+T offers flexible programming options for configuring video output format, output sequence, and diagnostics. It also supports bidirectional control channel for camera control, enabling manufacturers to implement functionalities such as zoom, pan, and tilt
