MIPI CSI-2 TX IP

Overview

Innosilicon CSI-2 Receiver implements CSI-2 protocol and MIPI D-PHY protocol. The CSI-2 link protocol specification is a part of group of communication protocols defined by MIPI Alliance standards intended for mobile system chip to chip communications. The CSI-2 specification is specially targets for Camera to Image application processor communication.
Innosilicon CSI-2 Receiver operates as a receiver of a CSI-2 link, which consists of an Innosilicon D-PHY and an Innosilicon CSI-2 controller.
? The Innosilicon D-PHY is used for the data transmission from a CSI-2 compliant camera sensor. In D-PHY, data stream is transmitted as packets. Error information is generated for application layer to do further operation.
? The Innosilicon MIPI CSI-2 Receiver Controller works as a protocol layer between application layer and physical layer. It implements all three layers defined by CSI-2 Specifications and aims to reconstruct the data stream from the D-PHY.
