Camera Sub-LVDS Receiver

Overview

The logiSLVDS_RX IP core enables easy interfacing of ultra high resolution Sony CMOS image sensors to image signal processing pipelines and application processors implemented in Xilinx All Programmable devices. High speed data transfers are supported by the Sub-LVDS differential interface, which is a reduced voltage form of the LVDS signaling. The IP core can be configured to support up to 10 interface lanes (differential pairs). It performs data deserialization, recognizes camera sync codes, optionally generates HSYNC and VSYNC signals required by the sensor, buffers pixels to decouple image sensor and the internal SoC bus, and outputs the video data packaged in compliance to the AXI4-Stream interface. It can also mark two different exposure video lines when used with HDR image sensors. In order to support the highest possible input video resolutions, the logiSLVDS_RX IP core can be configured for parallel processing of 2 or 4 pixels per clock.
