V3Link SerDes

FPD-Link's complementary portfolio of industrial-rated, high-speed video SerDes for medical, surveillance, and more

parametric-filterView all products
V3Link SerDes ICs are high-speed serializers and deserializers that are used to transmit raw uncompressed video, data, and power from board to board across cable. V3Link SerDes are compatible with industry-standard sensor and display interfaces and can be used with a variety of cable and connector types. Use V3Link SerDes to minimize chips and cabling, synchronize multiple cameras, and/or enable AI and high-performance processing in systems. For more options, consider our FPD-Link SerDes which is qualified for automotive specs.
