LM2501 - National Semiconductor

LM2501 Mobile Pixel Link (MPL) Camera Interface Serializer/Deserializer

The LM2501 device is a Serializer/Deserializer that adapts existing video busses to Mobile Pixel Link (MPL). MPL is intended to replace wide LVCMOS video interfaces inside portable electronics equipment benefiting their cost, size, EMI and power consumption. By using the LM2501 SERDES chipset, the interconnect is reduced from 12 active signals to only 3 acti.
