4.3 Upgrading the GMSL Serializer to GMSL 2
The FLIR ADKs are by shipped in either GMSL1 or GMSL 2 mode. The GMSL 1 cameras have
the trailing part number AA1 or AAX and GMSL 2 cameras have the trailing part number AA2.
If the camera is in GMSL 1 mode and to be integrated on a GMSL 2 system it will be necessary
to configure the Serializer on the ADK to use GMSL 2. This section describes how to configure
the serializer on the ADK for GMSL 2.
ADK Serializer Address: 0x84 (8-bit addressing)
Deserializer address is typically 0x90 (Depends on system / deserializer configuration)
1) Configure deserializer for GMSL1 mode (note: in step 4 if you’re not able to read back the
register from the serializer this is because the deserializer didn’t get configured for GMSL 1,
a work around to configuring the deserializer to GMSL 1 is to set the CFG pin level of CFG1
to 1. This configures the deserializer to come up in GMSL1 with HIM enabled, this matches
the Serializer default configuration.)
des: write val 0x1F to reg 0x06
2) Turn on local I2C ACK on deserializer (Faked ACK response from the serializer)
des: write val 0x80 to reg 0xB0D
3) Turn on high immunity mode (HIM), configure HV_SRC on deserializer:
des: write val 0xE8 to reg 0xB06
4) Turn on CLINK on serializer side (forward channel enabled)
ser: write val 0x43 to reg 0x404
5) Turn off deserializer local I2C ACK (because we don’t need it anymore because forward
channel from serializer is now working)
des: write val 0x0 to reg 0xB0D
6) Turn on Parallel video mode on serializer (may be different for MIPI) (configures forward
channel to be run from Boson’s PCLK)
ser: write val 0xF7 to reg 0x07
7) Switch from CLINK mode to SEREN mode on serializer (Now running off Boson’s PCLK)
ser: write val 0x83 to reg 0x404
8) Change from GMSL1 to GMSL2 mode on serializer (we lose communication to the serializer
after doing this until deserializer is converted to GMSL2 as well) (upgrade remote side first)
ser: write val 0x91 to reg 0x06
9) Change from GMSL1 to GMSL2 mode on deserializer (LOCK will be indicated after the link
comes back up)
des: write val 0xDF to reg 0x06
Note: The GMSL 2 configuration on serializer will be lost on power cycle, if running a GMSL
1 camera in a GMSL 2 configuration you need to implement this process each time.
4.4 GMSL SerDes Data Transmission
The Boson core of the ADK is wired to the Maxim Serializer as shown in Table 2.
