MAX9263/MAX9264
HDCP Gigabit Multimedia Serial
Link Serializer/Deserializer
19-5644; Rev 1; 3/11
General Description
The MAX9263/MAX9264 chipset extends Maxim’s gigabit
multimedia serial link (GMSL) technology to include high-
bandwidth digital content protection (HDCP) encryption
for content protection of DVD and Blu-ray™ video and
audio data. The MAX9263 serializer, or any HDCP-GMSL
serializer, pairs with the MAX9264 deserializer, or any
HDCP-GMSL deserializer, to form a digital serial link for
the transmission of control data and HDCP encrypted
video and audio data. GMSL is an HDCP technology
approved protocol by Digital Content Protection (DCP),
LLC.
The parallel interface is programmable for 24-bit or
32-bit width and operates with a pixel clock of 8.33MHz
to 104MHz (24 bit) or 6.25MHz to 78MHz (32 bit). When
programmed for 24-bit or 32-bit width, three inputs are
for I2S audio, supporting a sampling frequency from
8kHz to 192kHz and a sample depth of 4 bits to 32
bits. The embedded control channel forms a full-duplex
differential 9.6kbps to 1Mbps UART link between the
serializer and deserializer. An electronic control unit
(ECU), or microcontroller (FC), can be located on the
serializer side of the link (typical for video display), on the
deserializer side of the link (typical for image sensing), or
on both sides (typical for HDCP video display repeaters).
The control channel enables ECU/FC control of peripher-
als on the remote side, such as backlight control, touch
screen, and perform HDCP-related operations.
The serial link signaling is AC-coupled CML with 8b/10b
coding. For driving longer cables, the serializer has pro-
grammable pre/deemphasis, and the deserializer has a
programmable channel equalizer. The GMSL devices
have programmable spread spectrum on the serial
(serializer) and parallel (deserializer) output. The serial
link input and output meet ISO 10605 and IEC 61000-
4-2 ESD standards. The serializer core supply is 1.8V
and the deserializer core supply is 3.3V. The I/O supply
is 1.8V to 3.3V. Both devices are available in a 64-pin
TQFP package with an exposed pad and are specified
over the -40NC to +105NC automotive temperature range.

52–59 DOUT[7:0] Data Output [7:0]. Parallel data outputs. Output data can be strobed on the selected edge of
PCLKOUT. Encrypted when HDCP is enabled. See Table 3.
61 SSEN
Spread-Spectrum Enable Input. Serial link spread-spectrum enable input requires an external
pulldown or pullup resistor. The state of SSEN latches upon power-up or when resuming from
power-down mode (PWDN = low). Set SSEN = high for Q2% spread spectrum on parallel
outputs. Set SSEN = low to use the parallel outputs without spread spectrum.
62 DRS
Data-Rate Select. Data-rate range-selection input requires an external pulldown or pullup
resistor. The state of DRS latches upon power-up or when resuming from power-down mode
(PWDN = low). Set DRS = high for PCLKOUT frequencies of 8.33MHz to 16.66MHz (24-bit
mode) or 6.25MHz to 12.5MHz (32-bit mode). Set DRS = low for PCLKOUT frequencies of
16.66MHz to 104MHz (24-bit mode) or 12.5MHz to 78MHz (32-bit mode).
EP Exposed Pad. EP is internally connected to AGND. MUST externally connect EP to the AGND
plane for proper thermal and electrical performance.

Detailed Description
The MAX9263/MAX9264 serializer/deserializer chipset
utilizes Maxim’s GMSL technology and HDCP. When
HDCP is enabled, the serializer/deserializer encrypt
video and audio data on the serial link. The serializer/
deserializer are backward compatible with the MAX9259/
MAX9260 serializer/deserializer.
The serializer/deserializer have a maximum serial pay-
load data rate of 2.5Gbps for 15m or more of STP cable.
The serializer/deserializer pair operates up to a maxi-
mum pixel clock of 104MHz for 24-bit mode, or 78MHz
for 32-bit mode, respectively. This serial link supports a
wide range of display panels, from QVGA (320 x 240) to
WXGA (1280 x 800) and higher with 24-bit color.
The 24-bit mode handles 21 bits of high-speed data,
UART control signals, and three audio signals. The 32-bit
mode handles 29 bits of high-speed data, UART control
signals, and three audio signals. The three audio signals
are a standard I2S interface, supporting sample rates
from 8kHz to 192kHz and audio word lengths of 4 bits
to 32 bits. The embedded control channel forms a full-
duplex, differential 9.6kbps to 1Mbps UART link between
the serializer and deserializer for HDCP-related control
operations. In addition, the control channel enables
electronic control unit (ECU), or microcontroller (FC) con-
trol of peripherals in the remote side, such as backlight
control, grayscale gamma correction, camera module,
and touch screen. An ECU/FC, can be located on the
serializer side of the link (typical for video display), on
the deserializer side of the link (typical for image sens-
ing), or on both sides. Base-mode communication with
peripherals uses either I2C or the GMSL UART format. A
bypass mode enables full-duplex communication using
a user-defined UART format.
The serializer pre/deemphasis, along with the deseri-
alizer channel equalizer, extends the link length and
enhances the link reliability. Spread spectrum is avail-
able to reduce EMI on the serial and parallel outputs. The
serial link connections comply with ISO 10605 and IEC
61000-4-2 ESD protection standards.
Register Mapping
The FC configures various operating conditions of the
serializer and the deserializer through internal registers.
The default device address of the serializer is 0x80
and default device address of the deserializer is 0x90
(Tables 1 and 2). Write to registers 0x00 or 0x01 in both
devices to change the device address of the serializer
or the deserializer.

HDCP Bitmapping and Bus-Width Selection
The parallel input/outputs have two selectable modes,
24-bit mode and 32-bit mode. In 24-bit mode, DIN[28:21]
are not available. For both modes, the SD, SCK, and WS
pins are for I2S audio. The serializer/deserializer use
pixel clock rates from 8.33MHz to 104MHz for 24-bit
mode and 6.25MHz to 78MHz for 32-bit mode.
Table 3 lists the HDCP bit mapping for the parallel inputs.
DIN18/HS and DIN19/VS are reserved for HSYNC and
VSYNC, respectively. The serializer/deserializer have
HDCP encryption on DIN[17:0] and the I2S input. 32-bit
mode has additional HDCP encryption on DIN[26:21].
DIN[28:27] and DIN20 do not have HDCP encryption. SD,
when used as an additional data input (AUDIOEN = 0),
also does not have HDCP encryption.
Serial Link Signaling and Data Format
The serializer uses CML signaling with programmable
pre/deemphasis and AC-coupling. The deserializer uses
AC-coupling and programmable channel equalization.
Together, the GMSL link can operate at full speed over
STP cable lengths to 15m or more.
The serializer scrambles and encodes the input data and
sends the 8b/10b coded signal through the serial link.
The deserializer recovers the embedded serial clock and
then samples, decodes, and descrambles before out-
putting the data. Figures 22 and 23 show the serial-data
packet format after unscrambling and 8b/10b decoding.
In 24-bit or 32-bit mode, 21 or 29 bits map to the paral-
lel outputs. The audio channel bit (ACB) contains an
encoded audio signal derived from the three I2S signals
(SD, SCK, and WS). The forward control channel (FCC)

bit carries the forward control data. The last bit (PCB) is
the parity bit of the previous 23 or 31 bits.
Reverse Control Channel
The serializer uses the reverse control channel to receive
I2C/UART and interrupt signals from the deserializer in
the opposite direction of the video stream. The reverse
control channel and forward video data coexist on
the same twisted pair forming a bidirectional link. The
reverse control channel operates independently from the
forward control channel. The reverse control channel is
available 500Fs after power-up. The serializer temporar-
ily disables the reverse control channel for 350Fs after
starting/stopping the forward serial link.
Data-Rate Selection
The serializer/deserializer use the DRS input to set the
PCLKIN frequency range. Set DRS high for a PCLKIN
frequency range of 6.25MHz to 12.5MHz (32-bit mode)
or 8.33MHz to 16.66MHz (24-bit mode). Set DRS low
for normal operation with a PCLKIN frequency range
of 12.5MHz to 78MHz (32-bit mode) or 16.66MHz to
104MHz (24-bit mode).
Audio Channel
The I2S audio channel supports audio sampling rates
from 8kHz to 192kHz and audio word lengths from 4 bits
to 32 bits. The audio bit clock (SCK) does not have to be
synchronized with PCLKIN. The serializer automatically
encodes audio data into a single bit stream synchronous
with PCLKIN. The deserializer decodes the audio stream
and stores audio words in a FIFO. Audio rate detection
uses an internal oscillator to continuously determine the
audio data rate and output the audio in I2S format. The
audio channel is enabled by default. When the audio
channel is disabled, the audio data on the serializer and
deserializer are treated as an additional parallel signal
(DIN_/DOUT_).
Since the audio data sent through the serial link is
synchronized with PCLKIN, low PCLKIN frequencies
limit the maximum audio sampling rate. Table 4 lists

the maximum audio sampling rate for various PCLKIN
frequencies. Spread-spectrum settings do not affect
the I2S data rate or WS clock frequency.
Additional MCLK Output for
Audio Applications
Some audio DACs, such as the MAX9850, do not require
a synchronous main clock (MCLK), while other DACs
require MCLK to be a specific multiple of WS. If an audio
DAC chip needs the MCLK to be a multiple of WS, use
an external PLL to regenerate the required MCLK from
PCLKOUT or SCK.
For audio applications that cannot directly use PCLKOUT,
the MAX9264 provides a divided MCLK output on
DOUT28/MCLK at the expense of one less control line
in 32-bit mode (24-bit mode is not affected). By default,
DOUT28/MCLK operates as a parallel data output, and
MCLK is turned off. Set MCLKDIV (MAX9264 register
0x12, D[6:0]) to a non-zero value to enable the MCLK
output. Set MCLKDIV to 0x00 to disable MCLK and set
DOUT28/MCLK as a parallel data output.
The output MCLK frequency is:
SRC
MCLK
f
fMCLKDIV
=
where fSRC is the MCLK source frequency (Table 5)
MCLKDIV is the divider ratio from 1 to 127
Choose MCLKDIV values so that fMCLK is not greater
than 60MHz. MCLK frequencies derived from PCLKIN
(MCLKSRC = 0) are not affected by spread-spectrum
settings in the deserializer. Enabling spread spectrum
in the serializer, however, introduces spread spectrum
into MCLK. Spread-spectrum settings of either device
do not affect MCLK frequencies derived from the internal
oscillator. The internal oscillator frequency ranges from
100MHz to 150MHz over all process corners and operat-
ing conditions.
Control Channel and Register Programming
The control channel is available for the FC to send and
receive control data over the serial link simultaneously
with the high-speed data. Configuring the CDS pin allows
the FC to control the link from either the serializer or the
deserializer side to support video-display or image-
sensing applications. The control channel between the
FC and serializer or deserializer runs in base mode or
bypass mode according to the mode selection (MS)
input of the device connected to the FC. Base mode is
a half-duplex control channel and the bypass mode is a
full-duplex control channel.
Base Mode
In base mode, the FC is the host and can access the
core and HDCP registers of both the serializer and
deserializer from either side of the link by using the
GMSL UART protocol. The FC can also program the
peripherals on the remote side by sending the UART
packets to the serializer or deserializer, with the UART
packets converted to I2C by the device on the remote
side of the link (deserializer for LCD or serializer for
image-sensing applications). The FC communicates
with a UART peripheral in base mode (through INTTYPE
register settings), using the half-duplex default GMSL
UART protocol of the serializer/deserializer. The device
addresses of the serializer and deserializer in base
mode are programmable. The default value is 0x80 for
the serializer and 0x90 for the deserializer.
When the peripheral interface uses I2C (default), the
serializer/deserializer convert packets to I2C that have
device addresses different from those of the serializer or
deserializer. The converted I2C bit rate is the same as
the original UART bit rate.
The deserializer uses a proprietary differential line cod-
ing to send signals back towards the serializer. The
speed of the control channel ranges from 9.6kbps to

1Mbps in both directions. The serializer and deserial-
izer automatically detect the control-channel bit rate in
base mode. Packet bit rates can vary up to 3.5x from the
previous bit rate. See the Changing the Clock Frequency
section.
Figure 24 shows the UART protocol for writing and read-
ing in base mode between the µC and the serializer/
deserializer.
Figure 25 shows the UART data format. Figures 26 and
27 detail the formats of the SYNC byte (0x79) and the
ACK byte (0xC3). The FC and the connected slave chip
generate the SYNC byte and ACK byte, respectively.
Events such as device wake-up and interrupt generate
transitions on the control channel that should be ignored
by the FC. Data written to the serializer/deserializer
registers do not take effect until after the acknowledge
byte is sent. This allows the FC to verify write commands
received without error, even if the result of the write
command directly affects the serial link. The slave uses
the SYNC byte to synchronize with the host UART data
rate automatically. If the INT or MS inputs of the deserial-
izer toggle while there is control-channel communication,
the control-channel communication can be corrupted.

In the event of a missed acknowledge, the FC should
assume there was an error in the packet when the slave
device receives it, or that an error occurred during the
response from the slave device. In base mode, the FC
must keep the UART Tx/Rx lines high for 16 bit-times
before starting to send a new packet.
As shown in Figure 28, the remote-side device converts
the packets going to or coming from the peripherals from
the UART format to the I2C format and vice versa. The
remote device removes the byte number count and adds
or receives the ACK between the data bytes of I2C. The
I2C’s data rate is the same as the UART data rate.
Interfacing Command-Byte-Only I2C Devices
The serializer and deserializer UART-to-I2C conver-
sion interfaces with devices that do not require register
addresses, such as the MAX7324 GPIO expander. In
this mode, the I2C master ignores the register address
byte and directly reads/writes the subsequent data bytes
(Figure 29). Change the communication method of the
I2C master using the I2CMETHOD bit. I2CMETHOD = 1
sets command-byte-only mode, while I2CMETHOD = 0
sets normal mode where the first byte in the data stream
is the register address.
Bypass Mode
In bypass mode, the serializer/deserializer ignore UART
commands from the FC and the FC communicates with
the peripherals directly using its own defined UART pro-
tocol. The FC cannot access the serializer/deserializer’s
registers in this mode. Peripherals accessed through the
forward control channel using the UART interface need
to handle at least one PCLKIN period ±10ns of jitter due
to the asynchronous sampling of the UART signal by
PCLKIN. Set MS = high to put the control channel into
bypass mode. For applications with the FC connected to
the deserializer, (CDS is high) there is a 1ms wait time
between setting MS high and the bypass control channel
being active. There is no delay time when switching to
bypass mode when the FC is connected to the serial-
izer (CDS = low). Do not send a logic-low value longer
than 100Fs to ensure proper interrupt functionality.
Bypass mode accepts bit rates down to 10kbps in either
direction. See the Interrupt Control section for interrupt
functionality limitations. The control-channel data pattern
should not be held low longer than 100Fs if interrupt
control is used.

Interrupt Control
The INT pin of the serializer is the interrupt output and
the INT pin of the deserializer is the interrupt input. The
interrupt output on the serializer follows the transitions
at the interrupt input. This interrupt function supports
remote-side functions such as touch-screen peripherals,
remote power-up, or remote monitoring. Interrupts that
occur during periods where the reverse control channel
is disabled, such as link startup/shutdown, are automati-
cally resent once the reverse control channel becomes
available again. Bit D4 of register 0x06 in the deserializer
also stores the interrupt input state. The INT output of
the serializer is low after power-up. In addition, the FC
can set the INT output of the serializer by writing to the
SETINT register bit. In normal operation, the state of the
interrupt output changes when the interrupt input on the
deserializer toggles. Do not send a logic-low value lon-
ger than 100Fs in either base or bypass mode to ensure
proper interrupt functionality.
Pre/Deemphasis Driver
The serial line driver in the serializer employs current-
mode logic (CML) signaling. The driver can generate
an adjustable waveform according to the cable length
and characteristics. There are 13 preemphasis settings
as shown in Table 6. Negative preemphasis levels are
deemphasis levels in which the preemphasized swing
level is the same as normal swing, but the no-transition
data is deemphasized. Program the preemphasis lev-
els through register 0x05 D[3:0] of the serializer. This
preemphasis function compensates the high frequency
loss of the cable and enables reliable transmission over
longer link distances. Additionally, a lower power drive
mode can be entered by programming CMLLVL bits
(0x05, D[5:4]) to reduce the driver strength down to
75% (CMLLVL = 10) or 50% (CMLLVL = 01) from 100%
(CMLLVL = 11, default).

Line Equalizer
The deserializer includes an adjustable line equalizer to
further compensate cable attenuation at high frequen-
cies. The cable equalizer has 11 selectable levels of
compensation from 2.1dB to 13dB (Table 7). The EQS
input selects the default equalization level at power-up.
The state of EQS is latched upon power-up or when
resuming from power-down mode. To select other
equalization levels, set the corresponding register bits
in the deserializer (0x05 D[3:0]). Use equalization in the
deserializer, together with preemphasis in the serializer,
to create the most reliable link for a given cable.

Spread Spectrum
To reduce the EMI generated by the transitions on
the serial link and parallel outputs, both the serial-
izer and deserializer support spread spectrum. Turning
on spread spectrum on the deserializer spreads the
parallel video outputs. Turning on spread spectrum
on the serializer spreads the serial link, along with the
deserializer parallel outputs. Do not enable spread for
both the serializer and deserializer. The six selectable
spread-spectrum rates at the serializer serial output are
Q0.5%, Q1%, Q1.5%, Q2%, Q3%, and Q4% (Table 8).
Some spread-spectrum rates can only be used at lower
PCLK_ frequencies (Table 9). There is no PCLK_ fre-
quency limit for the 0.5% spread rate. The two selectable
spread-spectrum rates at the deserializer parallel output
are Q2% and Q4% (Table 10).
Set the serializer SSEN input high to select 0.5% spread
at power-up and SSEN input low to select no spread at
power-up. Set the deserializer SSEN input high to select
2% spread at power-up and SSEN input low to select no
spread at power-up. The state of SSEN is latched upon
power-up or when resuming from power-down mode.
Whenever the serializer spread spectrum is turned on
or off, the serial link automatically restarts and remains
unavailable while the deserializer relocks to the serial
data. Turning on spread spectrum on the serializer
or deserializer does not affect the audio data stream.
Changes in the serializer spread settings only affect
the deserializer MCLK output if it is derived from PCLK_
(MCLKSRC = 0).
The serializer/deserializer include a sawtooth divider to
control the spread-modulation rate. Auto detection or
manual programming of the PCLKIN operation range
guarantees a spread-spectrum modulation frequency
within 20kHz to 40kHz. Additionally, manual configura-
tion of the sawtooth divider (SDIV: 0x03, D[5:0]) allows
the user to set a modulation frequency according to
the PCLKIN frequency. Always keep the modulation
frequency between 20kHz to 40kHz to ensure proper
operation.

Manual Programming of the
Spread-Spectrum Divider
The modulation rate for the serializer/deserializer relates
to the PCLK_ frequency as follows:
PCLK_
M
f
f (1 DRS) MOD SDIV
= +
×
where:
fM = Modulation frequency
DRS = DRS pin input value (0 or 1)
fPCLK_ = PCLK_ frequency
MOD = Modulation coefficient given in Table 11 or 12
SDIV = 6- or 5-bit SDIV setting, manually programmed
by the FC
To program the SDIV setting, first look up the modulation
coefficient according to the part number and desired
bus-width and spread-spectrum settings. Solve the
above equation for SDIV using the desired pixel clock
and modulation frequencies. If the calculated SDIV
value is larger than the maximum allowed SDIV value in
Table 11 or 12, set SDIV to the maximum value.
Sleep Mode
The serializer/deserializer include a low-power sleep
mode to reduce power consumption on the device not
attached to the FC (the deserializer in LCD applications
and the serializer in camera applications). Set the cor-
responding remote IC’s SLEEP bit to 1 to initiate sleep
mode. The serializer sleeps immediately after setting
its SLEEP = 1. The deserializer sleeps after serial link
inactivity or 8ms (whichever arrives first) after setting
its SLEEP = 1. See the Link Startup Procedure section
for details on waking up the device for different FC and
starting conditions.
The FC side device cannot enter into sleep mode. If
an attempt is made to program the FC side device for
sleep, the SLEEP bit remains 0. Use the PWDN input
pin to bring the FC side device into a low-power state.
Entering sleep mode resets the HDCP registers, but not
the configuration registers.
Power-Down Mode
The serializer/deserializer include a power-down mode
to further reduce power consumption. Set PWDN low to
enter power-down mode. While in power-down mode, the

outputs of the device remain high impedance. Entering
power-down mode resets the internal registers of the
device. In addition, upon exiting power-down mode, the
serializer/deserializer relatch the state of external pins
SSEN, DRS, AUTOS, and EQS.
Configuration Link Mode
The GMSL includes a low-speed configuration link to
allow control-data connection between the two devices
in the absence of a valid clock input. In either display or
camera applications, the configuration link can be used
to program equalizer/preemphasis or other registers
before establishing the video link. An internal oscillator
provides PCLKIN for establishing the serial configuration
link between the serializer and deserializer. Set CLINKEN
= 1 on the serializer to turn on the configuration link. The
configuration link remains active as long as the video
link has not been enabled. The video link overrides the
configuration link and attempts to lock when SEREN = 1.
Link Startup Procedure
Table 13 lists four startup cases for video-display
applications. Table 14 lists two startup cases for image-
sensing applications. In either video-display or image-
sensing applications, the control link is always available
after the high-speed data link or the configuration link is
established and the serializer/deserializer registers or
the peripherals are ready for programming.
Video-Display Applications
For the video-display application, with a remote display
unit, connect the FC to the serializer and set CDS = low
for both the serializer and deserializer. Table 13 sum-
marizes the four startup cases based on the settings of
AUTOS and MS.
Case 1: Autostart Mode
After power-up or when PWDN transitions from low to
high for both the serializer and deserializer, the serial
link establishes if a stable clock is present. The serial-
izer locks to the clock and sends the serial data to the
deserializer. The deserializer then detects activity on the
serial link and locks to the input serial data.
Case 2: Standby Start Mode
After power-up or when PWDN transitions from low to
high for both the serializer and deserializer, the deserial-
izer starts up in sleep mode, and the serializer stays in
standby mode (does not send serial data). Use the FC
and program the serializer to set SEREN = 1 to establish
a video link or CLINKEN = 1 to establish the configura-
tion link. After locking to a stable clock (for SEREN = 1)
or the internal oscillator (for CLINKEN = 1), the serializer
sends a wake-up signal to the deserializer. The deserial-
izer exits sleep mode after locking to the serial data and
sets SLEEP = 0. If after 8ms the deserializer does not
lock to the input serial data, the deserializer goes back to
sleep, and the internal sleep bit remains set (SLEEP = 1).

Case 3: Remote Side Autostart Mode
After power-up or when PWDN transitions from low to
high, the remote device (deserializer) starts up and tries
to lock to an incoming serial signal with sufficient power.
The host side (serializer) is in standby mode and does
not try to establish a link. Use the FC and program the
serializer to set SEREN = 1 (and apply a stable clock
signal) to establish a video link or CLINKEN = 1 to estab-
lish the configuration link. In this case, the deserializer
ignores the short wake-up signal sent from the serializer.
Case 4: Remote Side in Sleep Mode
After power-up or when PWDN transitions from low to
high, the remote device (deserializer) starts up in sleep
mode. The high-speed link establishes automatically
after the serializer powers up with a stable clock signal
and sends a wake-up signal to the deserializer. Use this
mode in applications where the deserializer powers up
before the serializer.
Image-Sensing Applications
For image-sensing applications, connect the FC to the
deserializer and set CDS = high for both the serializer
and deserializer. The deserializer powers up normally
(SLEEP = 0) and continuously tries to lock to a valid
serial input. Table 14 summarizes both startup cases,
based on the state of the serializer’s AUTOS pin.
Case 1: Autostart Mode
After power-up, or when PWDN transitions from low to
high, the serializer locks to a stable input clock and
sends the high-speed data to the deserializer. The dese-
rializer locks to the serial data and outputs the video data
and clock.

Case 2: Sleep Mode
After power-up or when PWDN transitions from low to
high, the serializer starts up in sleep mode. To wake up
the serializer, use the FC to send a GMSL protocol UART
frame containing at least three rising edges (e.g., 0x66),
at a bit rate no greater than 1Mbps. The low-power wake-
up receiver of the serializer detects the wake-up frame
over the reverse control channel and powers up. Reset
the sleep bit (SLEEP = 0) of the serializer using a regular
control-channel write packet to power up the device fully.
Send the sleep bit write packet at least 500Fs after the
wake-up frame. The serializer goes back to sleep mode
if its sleep bit is not cleared within 5ms (min) after detect-
ing a wake-up frame.

High-Bandwidth Digital
Content Protection (HDCP)
Note: The explanation of HDCP operation in this data
sheet is given as a guide for general understanding.
Implementation of HDCP in a product must meet the
requirements given in the HDCP System v1.3 Amendment
for GMSL available from DCP, LLC.
HDCP uses two main phases of operation: authentication
and the link integrity check. The FC starts authentica-
tion by writing to the START_AUTHENTICATION bit in
the serializer. The serializer generates a 64-bit random
number. The host FC first reads the 64-bit random num-
ber from the serializer and writes it to the deserializer.
The FC then reads the serializer public key selection
vector (AKSV) and writes it to the deserializer. The FC

then reads the deserializer KSV (BKSV) and writes it to
the serializer. The FC begins checking BKSV against the
revocation list. Using the cipher, the serializer and dese-
rializer calculate a 16-bit response value, R0 and R0’,
respectively. The GMSL amendment for HDCP reduces
the 100ms minimum wait time allowed for the receiver
to generate R0’ (specified in HDCP rev 1.3) to 128 pixel
clock cycles in the GMSL amendment.
There are two response value comparison modes: inter-
nal comparison and FC comparison. Set EN_INT_COMP = 1
to select internal comparison mode. Set EN_INT_COMP
= 0 to select FC comparison mode. In internal compari-
son mode, the FC reads the deserializer response R0’
and writes it to the serializer. The serializer compares
R0’ to its internally generated response value R0, and
sets R0_RI_MATCHED. In FC comparison mode, the FC
reads and compares the R0/R0’ values from the serial-
izer/deserializer.
During response value generation and comparison, the
host FC checks for a valid BKSV (having 20 1’s and 20
0’s, which is also reported in BKSV_INVALID) and checks
BKSV against the revocation list. If BKSV is not on the list,
and the response values match, the host authenticates
the link. If the response values do not match, the FC
resamples the response values (as described in HDCP
rev 1.3 Appendix C). If resampling fails, the FC restarts
authentication by setting the RESET_HDCP bit in the
serializer. If BKSV appears on the revocation list, the
host cannot transmit data that requires protection. The
host knows when the link is authenticated and decides
when to output data requiring protection. The FC per-
forms a link integrity check every 128 frames or every 2
seconds Q0.5 seconds. The serializer/deserializer gener-
ate response values every 128 frames. These values are
compared internally (internal comparison mode) or can
be compared in the host FC.
In addition, the serializer/deserializer provide response
values for the enhanced link verification. Enchanced
link verification is an optional method of link verification
for faster detection of loss of synchronization. For this
option, the serializer and deserializer generate 8-bit
enhanced link verification response values, PJ and PJ’,
every 16 frames. The host must detect three consecutive
PJ/PJ’ mismatches before resampling.
Encryption Enable
The GMSL link transfers either encrypted or nonen-
crypted data. To encrypt data, the host FC sets the
encryption enable (ENCRYPTION_ENABLE) bit in
both the serializer and deserializer. The FC must set
ENCRYPTION_ENABLE in the same VSYNC cycle in
both the serializer and deserializer (no internal VSYNC
falling edges between the two writes). The same timing
applies when clearing ENCRYPTION_ENABLE to disable
encryption.
Note: ENCRYPTION_ENABLE enables/disables encryp-
tion on the GMSL irrespective of the content. To comply
with HDCP, the FC must not allow content requiring
encryption to cross the GMSL unencrypted. See the
Force Video/Force Audio Data section.
The FC must complete the authentication process before
enabling encryption. In addition, encryption must be
disabled before starting a new authentication session.
VSYNC Detection
If the FC cannot detect the VSYNC falling edge, it can
use the serializer’s VSYNC_DET register bit. The host
FC first writes 0 to the VSYNC_DET bit. The serializer
then sets VSYNC_DET = 1 once it detects an internal
VSYNC falling edge (which may correspond to an exter-
nal VSYNC rising edge if INVVSYNC of the serializer is
set). The FC continuously reads VSYNC_DET and waits
for the next internal VSYNC falling edge before setting
ENCRYPTION_ENABLE. Poll VSYNC_DET fast enough
to allow time to set ENCRYPTION_ENABLE in both the
serializer/deserializer within the same VSYNC cycle.
Synchronization of Encryption
The video vertical sync (VSYNC) synchronizes the start
of encryption. Once encryption has started, the GMSL
generates a new encryption key for each frame and each
line, with the internal falling edge of VSYNC and HSYNC.
Rekeying is transparent to data and does not disrupt the
encryption of video or audio data.
Repeater Support
The serializer/deserializer have features to build an
HDCP repeater. An HDCP repeater receives and
decrypts HDCP content and then encrypts and transmits
on one or more downstream links. A repeater can also
use decrypted HDCP content (for example to display
on a screen). To support HDCP repeater authentication
protocol, the deserializer has a REPEATER register bit.
This register bit must be set to 1 by a FC (most likely on
repeater module). Both the serializer and deserializer use
SHA-1 hash value calculation over the assembled KSV
lists. HDCP GMSL links support a maximum 15 receivers
(total number including the ones in repeater modules). If
the total number of downstream receivers exceeds 14,
the FC must set the MAX_DEVS_EXCEEDED register bit
when it assembles the KSV list.
MAX9263/MAX9264
HDCP Gigabit Multimedia Serial
Link Serializer/Deserializer
47
Force Video/Force Audio Data
The serializer masks audio and video data through two
control bits: FORCE_AUDIO and FORCE_VIDEO. Set
FORCE_VIDEO = 1 to transmit the 24-bit data word in
the DFORCE register instead of the video data received
at the serializer video inputs. Set FORCE_AUDIO = 1 to
transmit 0 instead of the SD input (SCK and WS continue
to be output from the deserializer). Use these features to
blank out the screen and mute the audio.
HDCP Authentication Procedures
The serializer generates a 64-bit random number
exceeding the HDCP requirement. The serializer/dese-
rializer internal one-time programmable (OTP) memo-
ries contain unique HDCP keyset programmed at the
factory. The host FC initiates and controls the HDCP
authentication procedure. The serializer and deserializer
generate HDCP authentication response values for the
verification of authentication. Use the following proce-
dures to authenticate the HDCP-GMSL encryption. Refer
to the HDCP 1.3 Amendment for GMSL for details. The
FC must perform link integrity checks while encryption is
enabled. See the Link Integrity Check section. Any event
that indicates that the deserializer has lost link synchro-
nization should retrigger authentication. The FC must
first write 1 to RESET_HDCP bit in the serializer before
starting a new authentication attempt.

protocol. These tables serve as an implementation guide

Detection and Action Upon
New Device Connection
When a new device is connected to the system, the
device must be authenticated and the device’s KSV
checked against the revocation list. The downstream
FCs can set the NEW_DEV_CONN bit of the upstream
receiver and invoke an interrupt to notify upstream FCs.
Notification of Start of Authentication and
Enable of Encryption to Downstream Links
HDCP repeaters do not immediately begin authentication
upon startup or detection of a new device, but instead
wait for an authentication request from the upstream
transmitter/repeaters.
Use the following procedure to notify downstream links of
the start of a new authentication request:
1) Host FC begins authentication with the HDCP repeat-
er’s input receiver.
2) When AKSV is written to HDCP repeater’s input
receiver, its AUTH_STARTED bit is automatically set
and its GPIO1 goes high (if GPIO1_FUNCTION is set
to high).
3) HDCP repeater’s FC waits for a low to high transition
on HDCP repeater input receiver’s AUTH_STARTED
bit and/or GPIO1 (if configured) and starts authentica-
tion downstream.
4) HDCP repeater’s FC resets AUTH_STARTED bit.
Set GPIO0_FUNCTION to high to have GPIO0 follow the
ENCRYPTION_ENABLE bit of the receiver. The repeater
FC can use this function to be notified when encryption
is enabled/disabled by an upstream FC.

Applications Information
Error Checking
The deserializer checks the serial link for errors and
stores the number of detected decoding errors in the
8-bit register DECERR (0x0D). If a large number of
8b/10b decoding or parity errors are detected within a
short duration (error rate R 1/4), the deserializer loses
lock and stops the error counter. The deserializer then
attempts to relock to the serial data. DECERR resets
upon successful video link lock, successful readout of
DECERR (through UART), or whenever auto error reset
is enabled. The deserializer does not check for decod-
ing or parity errors during the internal PRBS test, and
DECERR is reset to 0x00.
ERR Output
The deserializer has an open-drain ERR output. This
output asserts low whenever the number of decoding
errors exceeds the error threshold ERRTHR (0x0C)
during normal operation, or when at least 1 PRBS error
is detected during PRBS test. ERR reasserts high when-
ever DECERR (0x0D) resets, due to DECERR readout,
video link lock, or auto error reset.
Auto Error Reset
The default method to reset errors is to read the respec-
tive error registers in the deserializer (0x0D, 0x0E). Auto
error reset clears the decoding error counter DECERR
and the ERR output ~1Fs after ERR goes low. Auto error
reset is disabled on power-up. Enable auto error reset
through AUTORST (0x06, D6). Auto error reset does not
run when the device is in PRBS test mode.
PRBS Self-Test
The serializer/deserializer link includes a PRBS pattern
generator and bit-error verification function. First, dis-
able the glitch filters (set DISVSFILT, DISHSFILT to 1) in
the deserializer. Next, disable VSYNC/HSYNC inversion
in both the serializer and deserializer (set INVVSYNC,
INVHSYNC to 0). Then, set PRBSEN = 1 (0x04, D5) in the
serializer and then the deserializer to start the PRBS test.
Set PRBSEN = 0 (0x04, D5) first in the deserializer and
then the serializer to exit the PRBS self-test. The deseri-
alizer uses an 8-bit register (0x0E) to count the number
of detected errors. The control link also controls the start
and stop of the error counting. During PRBS mode, the
device does not count decoding errors and the deserial-
izer’s ERR output reflects PRBS errors only.
Microcontrollers on Both Sides
of the GMSL Link (Dual µC Control)
Usually the microcontroller is either on the serializer side
for video-display applications or on the deserializer side
for image-sensing applications. For the former case,
both the CDS pins of the serializer/deserializer are set to
low, and for the later case, the CDS pins are set to high.
However, if the CDS pin of the serializer is low and the
same pin of the deserializer is high, then the serializer/
deserializer connect to both FCs simultaneously. In such
a case, the FCs on either side can communicate with the
serializer and deserializer.
Contentions of the control link can happen if the FCs
on both sides are using the link at the same time. The
serializer/deserializer do not provide the solution for
contention avoidance. The serializer/deserializer do not
send an acknowledge frame when communication fails
due to contention. Users can always implement a
higher layer protocol to avoid the contention. In addi-
tion, if UART communication across the serial link is not
required, the FCs can disable the forward and reverse
control channel through the FWDCCEN and REVCCEN
bits (0x04, D[1:0]) in the serializer/deserializer. UART
communication across the serial link is stopped and
contention between FCs no longer occurs. During dual
FCs operation, if one of the CDS pins on either side
changes state, the link resumes the corresponding state
described in the Link Startup Procedure section.
As an example of dual FC use in an image-sensing
application, the serializer can be in sleep mode and
waiting for wake-up by the deserializer. After wake-up,
the serializer-side FC sets the serializer’s CDS pin low
and assumes master control of the serializer’s registers.
HSYNC/VSYNC Glitch Filter
The deserializer contains one-cycle glitch filters on
HSYNC and VSYNC. This eliminates single-cycle glitch-
es in HSYNC and VSYNC that can cause a loss of HDCP
synchronization between the serializer and deserializer
while encryption is enabled. The glitch filters are on by
default. Write to D[1:0] of register 0x08 in the deserializer
to disable the glitch filters for HSYNC or VSYNC.
The glitch filter, when active, suppresses all single-cycle
wide pulses sent. Disable the glitch filter before running
PRBS BER tests. The internal BER checker assumes that
the incoming bit stream is unaltered PRBS data.

Link Serializer/Deserializer

Jitter-Filtering PLL
In some applications, the parallel bus input clock to the
serializer (PCLKIN) includes noise, which reduces link
reliability. The serializer has a narrowband jitter-filtering
PLL to attenuate frequency components outside the
PLL’s bandwidth (< 100kHz typ). Enable the jitter-filtering
PLL by setting DISFPLL = 0 (0x05, D6).
Changing the Clock Frequency
Both the video clock rate (fPCLK_) and the control-
channel clock rate (fUART) can be changed on-the-fly
to support applications with multiple clock speeds. It is
recommended to enable the serial link after the video
clock stabilizes. Stop the video clock for 5Fs and restart
the serial link or toggle SEREN after each change in
the video clock frequency to recalibrate any automatic
settings if a clean frequency change cannot be guaran-
teed. The reverse control channel remains unavailable
for 350Fs after serial link start or stop. Limit on-the-fly
changes in fUART to factors of less than 3.5 at a time to
ensure that the device recognizes the UART sync pat-
tern. For example, when lowering the UART frequency
from 1Mbps to 100kbps, first send data at 333kbps and
then at 100kbps to have reduction ratios of 3 and 3.333,
respectively.
Do not interrupt PCLKIN or change its frequency while
encryption is enabled. Otherwise HDCP synchronization
is lost and authentication must be repeated. To change
the PCLK frequency, stop the high value content A/V
data. Then disable encryption in the serializer/deserial-
izer within the same VSYNC cycle—encryption stops
at the next VSYNC falling edge. PCLKIN can now be
changed/stopped. Reenable encryption before sending
any high value content A/V data.
Fast Detection of Loss-of-Synchronization
A measure of link quality is the recovery time from loss
of HDCP synchronization. With the GMSL, it is likely that
HDCP synchronization will not be lost unless the GMSL
synchronization is lost. The host can be quickly notified
of loss-of-lock by connecting the deserializer’s LOCK
output to the INT input. If other sources use the interrupt
input, such as a touch-screen controller, the FC can
implement a routine to distinguish between interrupts
from loss-of-sync and normal interrupts. Reverse con-
trol-channel communication does not require an active
forward link to operate and accurately tracks the LOCK
status of the GMSL link. LOCK asserts for video link only
and not for the configuration link.
Programming the Device Addresses
Both the serializer and the deserializer have programma-
ble device addresses. This allows multiple GMSL devic-
es, along with I2C peripherals, to coexist on the same
control channel. The serializer device address is stored
in register 0x00 of each device, while the deserializer
device address is stored in register 0x01 of each device.
To change the device address, first write to the device
whose address changes (register 0x00 of the serializer
for serializer device address change, or register 0x01 of
the deserializer for deserializer device address change).
Then write the same address into the corresponding reg-
ister on the other device (register 0x00 of the deserializer
for serializer device address change, or register 0x01 of
the serializer for deserializer device address change).
Configuration Blocking
The serializer/deserializer can block changes to their
non-HDCP registers. Set CFGBLOCK to make all non-
HDCP registers as read only. Once set, the registers
remain blocked until the supplies are removed or until
PWDN is low.
Backward Compatibility
The serializer and deserializer are backward compatible
with the non-HDCP MAX9259 and MAX9260. The pin-
outs and packages are the same for both devices. See
Table 3 and the Pin Description section for backward-
compatible pin mapping.
Key Memory
Each device has a unique HDCP key set that is stored
in secure on-chip nonvolatile memory (NVM). The HDCP
key set consists of forty 56-bit private keys and one
40-bit public key. The NVM is qualified for automotive
applications.
GPIOs
The deserializer has two open-drain GPIOs available.
When not used for HDCP purposes, GPIO1OUT and
GPIO0OUT (0x06, D3 and D1) set the output state of the
GPIOs. See the Notification of Start of Authentication and
Enable of Encryption to Downstream Links section. The
GPIO input buffers are always enabled. The input states
are stored in GPIO1 and GPIO0 (0x06, D2 and D0). Set
GPIO1OUT/GPIO0OUT to 1 when using GPIO1/GPIO0
as an input.
Line-Fault Detection
The line-fault detector in the serializer monitors for line
failures such as short to ground, short to battery, and
open link for system fault diagnosis. Figure 3 shows the
MAX9263/MAX9264
HDCP Gigabit Multimedia Serial
Link Serializer/Deserializer

required external resistor connections. LFLT = low when
a line fault is detected and LFLT goes high when the line
returns to normal. The line-fault type is stored in 0x08,
D[3:0] of the serializer. Filter LFLT with the FC to reduce
the detector’s susceptibility to brief ground shifts. The
fault detector threshold voltages are referenced to the
serializer ground. Additional passive components set
the DC level of the cable (Figure 3). If the serializer and
deserializer grounds are different, the link DC voltage
during normal operation can vary and cross one of the
fault detection thresholds. For the fault detection circuit,
select the resistor’s power rating to handle a short to the
battery.
To detect the short-together case, refer to Application
Note 4709: GMSL line-fault detection. Table 19 lists the
mapping for line-fault types.
Staggered Parallel Data Outputs
The deserializer staggers the parallel data outputs to
reduce EMI and noise. Staggering outputs also reduces
the power-supply transient requirements. By default, the
deserializer staggers outputs according to Table 20.
Disable output staggering through the DISSTAG bit
(0x06, D7).
Internal Input Pulldowns
The control and configuration inputs on the serial-
izer/deserializer include a pulldown resistor to GND.
Pulldowns are disabled when the device is shut down
(PWDN = low) or put into sleep mode. Keep all inputs
driven or use external pullup/pulldown resistors to pre-
vent additional current consumption and undesired con-
figuration due to undefined inputs.
Choosing I2C/UART Pullup Resistors
Both I2C/UART open-drain lines require pullup resistors
to provide a logic-high level. There are tradeoffs between
power dissipation and speed, and a compromise made
in choosing pullup resistor values. Every device connect-
ed to the bus introduces some capacitance even when
the device is not in operation. I2C specifies 300ns rise
times to go from low to high (30% to 70%) for fast mode,
which is defined for data rates up to 400kbps (see the
I2C specifications in the Electrical Characteristics table
for details). To meet the fast-mode rise-time requirement,
choose the pullup resistors so that rise time tR = 0.85 x
RPULLUP x CBUS < 300ns. The waveforms are not recog-
nized if the transition time becomes too slow. The serial-
izer/deserializer support I2C/UART rates up to 1Mbps.

AC-Coupling
AC-coupling isolates the receiver from DC voltages up to
the voltage rating of the capacitor. Four capacitors—two
at the serializer output and two at the deserializer input—
are needed for proper link operation and to provide
protection if either end of the cable is shorted to a high
voltage. AC-coupling blocks low-frequency ground shifts
and low-frequency common-mode noise.
Selection of AC-Coupling Capacitors
Voltage droop and the digital sum variation (DSV) of
transmitted symbols cause signal transitions to start
from different voltage levels. Because the transition time
is finite, starting the signal transition from different volt-
age levels causes timing jitter. The time constant for an
AC-coupled link needs to be chosen to reduce droop
and jitter to an acceptable level. The RC network for an
AC-coupled link consists of the CML receiver termination
resistor (RTR), the CML driver termination resistor (RTD),
and the series AC-coupling capacitors (C). The RC time
constant for four equal-value series capacitors is (C x
(RTD + RTR))/4. RTD and RTR are required to match the
transmission line impedance (usually 100I). This leaves
the capacitor selection to change the system time con-
stant. Use at least 0.2FF high-frequency surface-mount
ceramic capacitors, with sufficient voltage rating to with-
stand a short to battery, to pass the lower speed reverse
control-channel signal. Use capacitors with a case size
less than 3.2mm x 1.6mm to have lower parasitic effects
to the high-speed signal.
Power-Supply Circuits and Bypassing
The serializer uses an AVDD and DVDD of 1.7V to 1.9V,
while the deserializer uses an AVDD and DVDD of 3.0V
to 3.6V. All single-ended inputs and outputs on the
serializer/deserializer derive power from an IOVDD of
1.7V to 3.6V, which scale with IOVDD. Proper voltage-
supply bypassing is essential for high-frequency circuit
stability.
Cables and Connectors
Interconnect for CML typically has a differential imped-
ance of 100I. Use cables and connectors that have
matched differential impedance to minimize impedance
discontinuities. Twisted-pair and shielded twisted-pair
cables tend to generate less EMI due to magnetic-field
canceling effects. Balanced cables pick up noise as
common-mode rejected by the CML receiver. Table 21
lists the suggested cables and connectors used in the
GMSL link.
Board Layout
Separate the digital signals and CML high-speed sig-
nals to prevent crosstalk. Use a four-layer PCB with
separate layers for power, ground, CML, and digital sig-
nals. Layout PCB traces close to each other for a 100I
differential characteristic impedance. The trace dimen-
sions depend on the type of trace used (microstrip
or stripline). Note that two 50I PCB traces do not
have 100I differential impedance when brought close
together—the impedance goes down when the traces
are brought closer.
Route the PCB traces for a CML channel (there are two
conductors per CML channel) in parallel to maintain the
differential characteristic impedance. Avoid vias. Keep
PCB traces that make up a differential pair equal length
to avoid skew within the differential pair.
ESD Protection
The serializer/deserializer ESD tolerance is rated for
Human Body Model, IEC 61000-4-2, and ISO 10605. The
ISO 10605 and IEC 61000-4-2 standards specify ESD
tolerance for electronic systems. The serial link I/O are
tested for ISO 10605 ESD protection and IEC 61000-4-2
ESD protection. All pins are tested for the Human Body
Model. The Human Body Model discharge components
are CS = 100pF and RD = 1.5kI (Figure 35). The IEC
61000-4-2 discharge components are CS = 150pF and
RD = 330I (Figure 36). The ISO 10605 discharge com-
ponents are CS = 330pF and RD = 2kI (Figure 37).
