Overview

The MIPI CSI-2 with C-PHY Verification IP provides an effective & efficient way to verify the components interfacing with MIPI CSI-2 with C-PHY interface of an IP or SoC. The MIPI CSI-2 with C-PHY VIP is fully compliant to MIPI Alliance CSI-2 Specification Version 4.0.1 along with MIPI Alliance C-PHY Specification Version 2.1. The VIP is a light weight with easy plug-and-play interface so that there is no hit on the design cycle time.

Key features
