Procedure
The EV kit is fully assembled and tested. Follow the steps
below to verify board operation:
1) Download and install the EV kit software from
www.maximintegrated.com/EVkitsoftware.
2) Install the appropriate USB driver for your PC from
the links provided.
3) Verify that all jumpers are in their default positions, as
shown in Table 1.
4) With the power supply and function generator off,
connect the 5V power supply to the +5VIN terminal
pad on the serializer EV kit.
5) Connect the USB cable from the PC to the deserial-
izer EV kit (J10). A Windows message appears when
connecting the EV kit board to the PC for the rst
time. Each version of Windows has a slightly different
message. If you see a Windows message stating
ready to use, then proceed to the next step; other-
wise, open the USB_Driver_Help_200.PDF to verify
that the USB driver was successfully installed.
6) Connect the FAKRA cable from the serializer EV kit
OUT+ connector to the deserializer EV kit IN+ con-
nector.
7) Connect the parallel data source to the serializer EV
kit headers (H1_DIN28:0).
8) Connect pixel clock or function generator to the serial-
izer EV kit header (H1_PCLK_IN).
9) Turn on power supply and function generator.
10) Verify that LED_PWR on the serializer EV kit turns on,
indicating that the board has power.
11) Verify that LED_D2 on the deserializer EV kit turns
on, indicating that the microcontroller is powered and
enabled.
12) Verify that LED_LOCK on the deserializer EV kit lights
up, indicating that the link has been successfully
established. If LED_LOCK is off or LED_ERROR is
on, double-check that the PCLK_IN signal is clocking
data.
13) Start the EV kit software by selecting Start | Pro-
grams | Maxim Integrated | MAXSerDesEV-D |
MAXSerDesEV-D. The Conguration Settings win-
dow will appear (Figure 1). Jumper settings in this
window are for user reference and guide to properly
congure the evaluation board. Jumper settings do
not force the serializer or deserializer into a particular
mode of operation.
14) UART mode support: To congure for UART
mode, on the deserializer board, change jumpers
JU_I2CSEL from H to the L position. On the serializer
board, change jumpers JU_CONF1 and JU_CONF0
as shown in the Serializer group box, JU_TXSCL
from SCL to the TX position, and JU_RXSDA from
SDA to the RX position.
15) Press the Identify Devices button to have the GUI
scan the bus for possible listeners. In case no device
was identied, the most likely cause is improper jump-
er settings. Identify the problem before continuing.
16) Press the Connect button to launch the Evaluation
Kit window (Figure 2).
17) Press the Read All button to read all registers on the
deserializer and serializer.

Detailed Description of Software
To start the MAX9276A/MAX9280A deserializer coax EV
kit GUI, select Start | Programs | Maxim Integrated |
MAXSerDesEV-D | MAXSerDesEVGUI-D.
Conguration Settings
The Configuration Settings window is the first window
that opens after program launch. It allows the user to
specify evaluation board setup and mode of operation.
Controller Group Box
In the Controller group box, select Coax or STP from
the LinkType drop-down list, I2C or UART from the
Bus drop-down list, and whether the Serializer or
Deserializer should connect to the USB controller. Upon
changing any of these parameters, any conflicting jumper
settings will be highlighted, guiding the user to check
and make the corresponding changes to the evaluation
boards. Only LinkType and Device Address selections
on the Configuration Settings window affect the EV kit
operation. Other items, including jumper selection, are for
user reference only.

Serializer and Deserializer Jumper Selection
Blocks
The Serializer Jumper Selection and Deserializer
Jumper Selection blocks list jumpers for the selected
Device IDs and displays the correct shunt positions based
on the conditions selected in the Controller group box.
Identify Devices Button
The Identify Devices button causes the GUI to scan the
system and hunt for slave addresses selectable by the
SerDes input address pins. Upon successful communi-
cation, the identified Device ID and the corresponding
jumper lists are displayed on the serializer and deserial-
izer block. It is also possible to manually select a device
from the list in the Device ID drop-down list and enter
the slave address in the Device Address edit box. It is a
good practice to utilize the Identify Devices function and
verify communication with the devices under test (DUTs)
before attempting to Connect.
Figure 9 and Figure 10 show jumper settings on the
SerDes PCBs for coax cable and I2C communication
with the USB controller connected to the deserializer
board. Refer the respective deserializer IC data sheet for
detailed configuration information. See Table 1 for PCB
jumper descriptions.
Connect Button
The Connect button opens up the Evaluation Kit win-
dow. The GUI reads the SerDes registers and updates the
register maps for both. Successful register map updates
are indicated by green LED indicators. In case of a com-
munication problem, the LED indicators turn red.
Cancel - Do not Connect Button
The Cancel - Do not Connect button opens the
Evaluation Kit window without attempting to connect to
the on-board microcontroller. Although there will be no
communication with the microcontroller, all functions and
tabs corresponding to the selected Device IDs become
active once there.
Evaluation Kit Window
The Evaluation Kit window shown in Figure 2 provides
access to all internal functions of the DUTs by means
of reading and writing registers through different tabs to
allow the user to evaluate various functions of the SerDes.
The Read All button updates the SerDes’ device maps by
reading the DUT’s internal registers.
The Serializer group box provides pushbuttons to access
the serializer’s registers. The Read all MAX9279 button
reads register contents from the serializer and updates
the displayed register values. The Load button reads and
updates registers from a previously saved register map
file or saves the existing register values into a new file for
future reference using the Save button.
The Deserializer group box provides pushbuttons
to access the deserializer’s registers. The Read All
MAX9280/80A button reads register contents from the
deserializer and updates the displayed register values.
The Load button reads and updates registers from a
previously saved register map file or saves the existing
register values into a new file for future reference using
the Save button.
The Open Configuration button opens the Configuration
Settings window for any configuration change. Use
Open Configuration and Connect buttons to go back
and forth between Configuration Settings window and
Evaluation Kit window.
The Wake Up button applies the register write sequence
described in the IC data sheets to wake the DUTs from
sleep mode.

The Register Access group box allows 1-byte read or
writes of the specified Device Address and Register
Address. Press the Send String to EVKIT button
to communicate with devices that are not register-
based (such as the MAX7324). User-supplied devices
requiring other interface protocols must use the Raw TX
byte codes to communicate. Note that in bypass mode,
raw data is passed to the user-supplied slave device
directly without modification.

Detailed Description of Hardware
The MAX9276A/MAX9280A deserializer coax EV kit
provides a proven layout for the GMSL deserializers with
the use of a standard FAKRA coax cable. On-board level
translators and an easy-to-use USB-PC connection are
included on the EV kit.
The deserializer EV kit board layout is divided into three
principal sections:
1) Power-supply circuitry (on-board LDO regulators
U2 and U3 power the AVDD, DVDD, and IOVDD
supplies from +5VIN)
2) MAX9276A or MAX9280A and support components.
3) Microcontrollers (U10, U12) and support components
On-Board-Supplied Interface
The EV kit board provides a UART and I2C inter-
face (through U10 and U12) that is intended to oper-
ate while both SerDes boards are powered on and
locked. To use the on-board-supplied I2C interface,
either use an IOVDD of 2.2V or greater with the I2C
interface, or use a 100kbps I2C data rate.
User-Supplied Interface
To use the deserializer EV kit with a user-supplied inter-
face, remove shunts from the JU_TXSCL header and
apply a TX/SCL signal to the middle pin of the JU_TXSCL
header. Also remove shunts from the JU_RXSDA header
and apply an RX/SDA signal to the middle pin of the
JU_RX_SDA header.
Refer to the respective SerDes IC data sheets for details
about UART protocol for base mode, write data format,
read data format, selecting base mode or bypass mode,
and selecting a UART or I2C slave device.
User-Supplied Power Supply
The deserializer EV kit can be powered completely from
the USB port by default. Jumper JU_VIN selects between
the 5V USB supply or the +5VIN user-supplied power
supply to power up U1 and supporting circuitry.
To provide different power supplies to AVDD, DVDD, and
IOVDD, move the shunts on the JU_AVDD, JU_DVDD,
and JU_IOVDD headers from the INT to the EXT
positions and apply external user-supplied power at the
AVDD_EXT, DVDD_EXT, and IOVDD_EXT terminals,
respectively.
Detailed Description of Firmware
The DS89C450 microcontroller (U12) runs custom
firmware that ensures no breaks occur within register
read/write commands. The firmware records 9-bit even-
parity data received from the USB interface while RTS is
set, and plays back the 9-bit data with 1.5 stop bits timing
when RTS is cleared. Data received by the deserializer is
immediately relayed to the USB port.
The serializer coax EV kit provides a proven layout for
the MAX9275/MAX9279 GMSL serializer with the use of
a standard FAKRA coax cable. On-board level translators
and an easy-to-use USB-PC connection are included on
the EV kit.
