The MAX9217ECM+T is a 27bit, 3MHz to 35MHz DC balanced LVDS serializer in 48 pin LQFP package. This digital video parallel to serial converter serializes 27bit of parallel data in to serial data stream. A 18bit of video data and 9bit of control data are encoded and multiplexed on to serial interface by reducing serial data rate. The data enable input determines when video or control data is serialized. The MAX9217 pairs with MAX9218 deserializer to form a complete digital video serial link. DC balance allows AC coupling which provides isolation between transmitting and receiving ends of interface. The LVDS output is internally terminated with 100 ohm. ESD tolerance is specified for ISO 10605 with ±10KV contact discharge and ±30KV air discharge. The MAX9217 operates from 3.3V core supply and has separate input supply for interfacing to 1.8V to 3.3V logic levels. It is used in navigation system display, in-vehicle entertainment system and LCD displays.
