DSI transmitter controller for application
The Cadence® Transmitter (TX) Controller IP for MIPI DSI is compliant with the MIPI® Alliance Specification for Display Serial Interface (DSISM) version 1.3.1. The TX Controller IP for DSI provides the interface from a host device graphics controller to one or more display modules and includes an arbitration layer for arbitrating among the various data and command streams, a DSI protocol layer for protocol functions, a lane management layer (LML) to distribute the DSI data stream across the active D-PHYSM lane modules, and an external register interface for configuration of the controller IP and status/error reporting. The TX Controller IP for DSI is architected to rapidly and easily integrate into any system-on-chip (SoC), and to connect seamlessly to Cadence or third-party PPI-compliant D-PHY lane modules. The TX Controller IP for DSI provides a cost-effective, low-power solution for demanding applications. It offers SoC integrators the advanced capabilities and support that not only meet but exceed the requirements of high-performance designs and implementations. All Cadence IP for MIPI is silicon proven and has been extensively validated with multiple hardware platforms.
