The AD-GMSL522-SL is a GMSL-enabled NVIDIA Jetson Xavier™ NX-based carrier board and software solution that allows for simple camera to display conversion. This solution creates a scalable, user friendly, GMSL platform for receiving and transmitting data over a gigabit multimedia serial link (GMSL). The platform enables demonstrations and ecosystem development by serving as a hardware platform for software development.
The AD-GMSL522-SL supports two forms of camera input -- either straight CSI data coming through a SAMTEC connector, or via camera modules using GMSL2 or GMSL1 technology to connect to the on-board MAX96724 via COAX connectors. GMSL evaluation kits or any camera utilizing the standard 15- or 22-pin Raspberry Pi connector can be connected here using the AD-GMSLCAMRPI-SL adapter board.
The AD-GMSL522-SL package includes software tools to enable customers in their development of GMSL applications. Among these tools are modified L4T kernels that support certain camera modules and documentation that allows any user to update these kernels for their specific hardware needs.
The design incorporates the MAX96724GTN/VY+ Quad tunneling GMSL2/1 to CSI-2 deserializer and MAX96717GTJ/VY+ CSI-2 to GMSL2 serializer and provides a reliable platform to evaluate high-bandwidth GMSL.
There are two system options available for purchase: the AD-GMSL522-SL which is the base carrier board and does not include the NVIDIA SoM, and the AD-GMSL522-SOM-SL which is the carrier board including the NVIDIA Jetson Xavier™ NX SoM.
