Rohde & Schwarz has collaborated with Analog Devices, Inc. (ADI) to create a wide range of tests for Gigabit Multimedia Serial Link (GMSL) devices. The GMSL technology from ADI provides a cost-efficient, scalable, and simple SerDes solution designed to improve performance for high-speed video links, primarily used in In-Vehicle Infotainment (IVI) and Advanced Driver-Assistance Systems (ADAS) in vehicles. The collaboration will enable engineers, developers and manufacturers to create and deploy GMSL-based ADAS and IVI systems rapidly.
To verify narrowband crosstalk, the solution includes a powerful built-in spectrum analysis on the R&S RTP oscilloscope. Furthermore, cable, connector, and channel characterization can be performed using vector network analyzers provided by Rohde & Schwarz.
GMSL technology is increasingly becoming a fundamental element in automotive applications, including safety, monitoring, infotainment, and autonomy, owing to its ability to reliably transport high-resolution digital video for camera and display-based applications.
Balagopal Mayampurath, Vice President of ADI’s GMSL Technology Group said, “It is significant that GMSL is adopted by several OEMs and Tier-1s, making it a de facto video connectivity standard in the automotive industry. The tests from Rohde & Schwarz expedite the process for customers to build and deliver GMSL-based solutions and they are critical in supporting the automotive ecosystem.”
The application will be demonstrated at CES 2025 in Las Vegas from January 7 to 10, 2024, at booth 3366 in the West Hall.
