MAXIM MAX9217ECM

19-3558; Rev 2; 10/05
27-Bit, 3MHz-to-35MHz
DC-Balanced LVDS Serializer
Features
The MAX9217 digital video parallel-to-serial converter
serializes 27 bits of parallel data into a serial data stream.
Eighteen bits of video data and 9 bits of control data are
encoded and multiplexed onto the serial interface, reducing the serial data rate. The data enable input determines
when the video or control data is serialized.
The MAX9217 pairs with the MAX9218 deserializer to
form a complete digital video serial link. Interconnect
can be controlled-impedance PC board traces or twistedpair cable. Proprietary data encoding reduces EMI and
provides DC balance. DC balance allows AC-coupling,
providing isolation between the transmitting and receiving ends of the interface. The LVDS output is internally
terminated with 100Ω.
ESD tolerance is specified for ISO 10605 with ±10kV
contact discharge and ±30kV air discharge.
♦ Proprietary Data Encoding for DC Balance and
Reduced EMI
The MAX9217 operates from a +3.3V core supply and
features a separate input supply for interfacing to 1.8V
to 3.3V logic levels. This device is available in 48-lead
Thin QFN and TQFP packages and is specified from
-40°C to +85°C.

Detailed Description
The MAX9217 DC-balanced serializer operates at a
parallel clock frequency of 3MHz to 35MHz, serializing
18 bits of parallel video data RGB_IN[17:0] when the
data enable input DE_IN is high, or 9 bits of parallel
control data CNTL_IN[8:0] when DE_IN is low. The
RGB video input data are encoded using 2 overhead
bits, EN0 and EN1, resulting in a serial word length of
20 bits (Table 1). Control inputs are mapped to 19 bits
and encoded with 1 overhead bit, EN0, also resulting in
a 20-bit serial word. Encoding reduces EMI and main-
tains DC balance across the serial cable. Two transition
words, which contain a unique bit sequence, are inserted at the transition boundaries of video-to-control and
control-to-video phases.
Control data inputs C0 to C4 are mapped to 3 bits each
in the serial control word (Table 2). At the deserializer,
2 or 3 bits at the same state determine the state of the
recovered bit, providing single bit-error tolerance for
C0 to C4. Control data that may be visible if an error
occurs, such as VSYNC and HSYNC, can be connected to these inputs. Control data inputs C5 to C8 are
mapped to 1 bit each.

Transition Timing
The transition words require interconnect bandwidth
and displace control data. Therefore, control data is not
sampled (see Figure 9):
• Two clock cycles before DE_IN goes high.
• During the video phase.
• Two clock cycles after DE_IN goes low.
The last sampled control data are latched at the deserializer control data outputs during the transition and video
phases. Video data are latched at the deserializer RGB
data outputs during the transition and control phases.
Applications Information
AC-Coupling Benefits
AC-coupling increases the common-mode voltage to
the voltage rating of the capacitor. Two capacitors are
sufficient for isolation, but four capacitors—two at the
serializer output and two at the deserializer input—provide protection if either end of the cable is shorted to a
high voltage. AC-coupling blocks low-frequency
ground shifts and common-mode noise. The MAX9217
serializer can also be DC-coupled to the MAX9218
deserializer.
10
Figure 10 shows an AC-coupled serializer and deserializer with two capacitors per link, and Figure 11 is the
AC-coupled serializer and deserializer with four capacitors per link.
Selection of AC-Coupling Capacitors
See Figure 12 for calculating the capacitor values for
AC-coupling, depending on the parallel clock frequency. The plot shows capacitor values for two- and fourcapacitor-per-link systems. For applications using less
than 18MHz clock frequency, use 0.125µF capacitors.
Frequency-Range Setting RNG[1:0]
The RNG[1:0] inputs select the operating frequency
range of the MAX9217 serializer. An external clock within this range is required for operation. Table 3 shows
the selectable frequency ranges and corresponding
data rates for the MAX9217.

of 18MHz to 35MHz
Phase-Modulation Setting MOD[1:0]
The serial output edges can be phase shifted (modulated)
to reduce EMI. Table 4 shows the available settings for
phase modulation. Two shift amplitudes are available. The
parallel clock frequency should be 10MHz or higher for
the highest amplitude (MOD1 = 1, MOD0 = 0).
Termination
The MAX9217 has an integrated 100Ω output-termination resistor. This resistor damps reflections from
induced noise and mismatches between the transmission line impedance and termination resistors at the
deserializer input. With PWRDWN = low or with the supply off, the output termination is switched out and the
LVDS output is high impedance.

Common-Mode Filter
The integrated 100Ω output termination is made up of
two 50Ω resistors in series. The junction of the resistors
is connected to the CMF pin for connecting an optional
common-mode filter capacitor. Connect the filter
capacitor to ground close to the MAX9217 as shown in
Figure 13. The capacitor shunts common-mode switching current to ground to reduce EMI.

Power-Supply Circuits and Bypassing
The MAX9217 has isolated on-chip power domains. The
digital core supply (VCC) and single-ended input supply
(VCCIN) are isolated but have a common ground (GND).
The PLL has separate power and ground (VCCPLL and
VCCPLL GND) and the LVDS input also has separate
power and ground (VCCLVDS and VCCLVDS GND). The
grounds are isolated by diode connections. Bypass each
VCC, VCCIN, VCCPLL, and VCCLVDS pin with high-frequency, surface-mount ceramic 0.1µF and 0.001µF capacitors
in parallel as close to the device as possible, with the
smallest value capacitor closest to the supply pin.
PLL Lock Time
The PLL lock time is set by an internal counter. The lock
time is 16,385 PCLK_IN cycles. Power and clock should
be stable to meet the lock-time specification.
Input Buffer Supply
The single-ended inputs (RGB_IN[17:0], CNTL_IN[8:0],
DE_IN, RNG0, RNG1, MOD0, MOD1, PCLK_IN, and
PWRDWN) are powered from V CCIN. V CCIN can be
connected to a 1.71V to 3.6V supply, allowing logic
inputs with a nominal swing of VCCIN. If no power is
applied to VCCIN when power is applied to VCC, the
inputs are disabled and PWRDWN is internally driven
low, putting the device in the power-down state.
LVDS Output
The LVDS output is a current source. The voltage swing
is proportional to the termination resistance. The output
is rated for a differential load of 100Ω ±1%.
Cables and Connectors
Interconnect for LVDS typically has a differential impedance of 100Ω. Use cables and connectors that have
matched differential impedance to minimize impedance
discontinuities.
Twisted-pair and shielded twisted-pair cables offer
superior signal quality compared to ribbon cable and
tend to generate less EMI due to magnetic field canceling effects. Balanced cables pick up noise as common
mode, which is rejected by the LVDS receiver.

MAX9217
Power-Down and Power-Off
Driving PWRDWN low stops the PLL, switches out the
integrated 100Ω output termination, and puts the output
in high impedance to ground and differentially. With
PWRDWN ≤ 0.3V and all LVTTL/LVCMOS inputs ≤ 0.3V or
≥ VCCIN - 0.3V, supply current is reduced to 50µA or less.
Driving PWRDWN high starts PLL lock to PCLK_IN and
switches in the 100Ω output termination resistor. The
LVDS output is not driven until the PLL locks. The LVDS
output is high impedance to ground and 100Ω differential. The 100Ω integrated termination pulls OUT+ and
OUT- together while the PLL is locking so that VOD = 0V.
If VCC = 0, the output resistor is switched out and the LVDS
outputs are high impedance to ground and differentially.

Board Layout
ESD Protection
Separate the LVTTL/LVCMOS inputs and LVDS output to
prevent crosstalk. A four-layer PC board with separate
layers for power, ground, and signals is recommended.
The MAX9217 ESD tolerance is rated for Human Body
Model and ISO 10605. ISO 10605 specifies ESD tolerance for electronic systems. The Human Body Model
discharge components are C S = 100pF and R D =
1.5kΩ (Figure 14). The ISO 10605 discharge components are CS = 330pF and RD = 2kΩ (Figure 15).
