MAX9201EUE

MAX9201EUE is an automotive-grade SerDes device from Maxim Integrated used to build high-speed video links (FPD-Link style). It converts parallel video data into a high-speed serial stream for transmission over a single coaxial or twisted-pair channel and then recovers parallel data at the far end. The device is designed for automotive camera and display networks, infotainment video buses, and other high-bandwidth sensor links, where a compact, single-link solution is preferred over multiple cables. Typical features (as with the MAX9201 family) include a serial link with differential signaling, support for timing and framing of video data, clock/data recovery options, and configurable modes to optimize for power and cable length. The EUE suffix indicates a specific packaging/temperature/ RoHS variant of the part. In practice, MAX9201EUE is used with a matching receiver/transmitter counterpart on the other end of the link, requiring the appropriate cable and timing control signals. For exact specs, refer to the datasheet (data rate, voltage levels, jitter, power, timing).

MAX9201EUE uses a 24-pin QFN (5x5 mm), leadless, RoHS-compliant package.

- Pin count: 28 pins (28-pin package).
- Function: High-speed serializer/deserializer transceiver for automotive video links (FPD-Link II); converts parallel video data to a high-speed serial stream (and deserializes back), with clock, control, and power pins.

- Manufacturer: Maxim Integrated (now part of Analog Devices).
- What kind of company: An American semiconductor company that designs and manufactures analog and mixed-signal integrated circuits (fabless).

MAX9201EUE is a high-speed serializer/deserializer for video/data links. Typical applications:
- Automotive camera links (ADAS, rear/around-view) using FPD-Link III
- In-vehicle infotainment/display connections
- Industrial/medical imaging, CCTV and machine-vision over short coax/twisted pair
- General short-reach video/data links in embedded systems (sensor-to-processor, backplanes)

There isn’t an exact public cross-reference for MAX9201EUE. It’s a high‑speed LVDS/FPD‑Link SerDes device used in automotive/video links. Comparable parts from other vendors include TI’s DS90Cxxx LVDS SerDes family and ON Semiconductor’s NB7L/NB7N SerDes families (and similar LVDS/FPD-Link devices).
