General Description
The MAX9223/MAX9224 serializer/deserializer chipsets
reduce wiring by serializing 22 bits onto a single differen-
tial pair. 22 bits are serialized in each cycle of the paral-
lel input clock resulting in a 110Mbps to 220Mbps net
serial-data rate ideal for cell phone QVGA and QCIF dis-
plays. The MAX9223 serializes the 18-bit RGB, VSYNC,
HSYNC, and two control signals from the baseband
processor to reduce wiring through the hinge to the LCD
controller. The 2-wire serial interface uses low-current dif-
ferential signaling (LCDS) for low EMI, high common-
mode noise immunity, and ground-shift tolerance. The
MAX9223/MAX9224 automatically identify the word
boundary in serial data in case of signal interruption. The
MAX9224 power-down is controlled by the MAX9223.
The MAX9223 and MAX9224 consume 3.5µA or less in
power-down mode.
The MAX9223 serializer operates from a single +2.375V
to +3.465V supply and accepts +1.71V to +3.465V
inputs. The MAX9224 deserializer operates from a
+2.375V to +3.465V core supply and has a separate
output buffer supply (V
DDO
), allowing +1.71V to
+3.465V output high levels.
The MAX9223/MAX9224 are specified over the -40°C to
+85°C extended temperature range and are available
in 28-pin TQFN (4mm x 4mm x 0.8mm) packages with
an exposed paddle.

Stresses beyond those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and functional
operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated in the operational sections of the specifications is not implied. Exposure to
absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
