CameraLink image data fiber transmission technology based on MAX9259/MAX9260

In order to improve the performance of image transmission system in the photoelectric theodolite, the optical fiber transmission system is established. Aiming at complicated FPGA development in the traditional CameraLink optical fiber transmission system, combining with the CameraLink interface protocols and the serial/deserial technology, we design a new base type CameraLink optical transmission system, using SerDes chipset MAX9259/MAX9260 instead of the codec chip to realize the mutual conversion of data between the Cameralink parallel interface and the photoelectric conversion module serial interface, and verify the feasibility of the system by two experimental schemes. This scheme eliminates the time-division multiplexing and the asynchronous FIFO buffer in the traditional scheme, reduces the development difficulty and shortens the development cycle. The experimental results show that the transmission rate reaches 2.5 Gb/s, which has the characteristics of stable and reliable transmission, good transmission image quality, high bandwidth and strong anti-electromagnetic interference capability, thus meeting the needs of various pixel clock cameras.
