Copyright (c) 2023-2025 Antmicro
Overview
This project contains open hardware design files for the GMSL Serializer Board. This board accepts MIPI CSI-2 signals from Antmicro's 50-pin FFC video interface and transmits the video data over GMSL2. The GMSL Serializer Board is powered over GMSL coaxial cable.
The design files were prepared in KiCad 8.
Key features
- Input: 4-lane MIPI CSI-2 interface on a 50-pin Antmicro Dual Camera connector
- Output: GMSL2 interface exposed on a FAKRA connector
- PoC filter for sinking power from the GMSL coaxial cable

Questions
How big is the Gmsl serializer PCB?
It measures 43 × 43 mm and has 4 copper layers, 1.59 mm thick.
What parts does the Gmsl serializer use?
118 parts, built around the MAX96717GTJ/VY+, REF3012AIDBZT, CR0402-FX-1002GLF and LTST-C190GKT. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.
Where can I download the Gmsl serializer KiCad files?
From the antmicro/gmsl-serializer repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is gmsl-serializer.kicad_pcb and its schematic CSI.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Gmsl serializer design in my own project?
Its repository publishes it under the Apache-2.0 licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
