All you want to know about MIPI IP... don't be shy, just ask IPnest
According with the MIPI Alliance, the year 2009 has been the time for MIPI specification to be developed, when 2010 was dedicated to Marketing and Communication effort to popularize MIPI technologies within the SC industry, finally the year 2011 is expected to see MIPI deployment in the mass market, at least in the Wireless (Handset) segment.
MIPI is an Interconnect protocol offering several key advantages: strong modularity allowing minimizing power but also reaching high bandwidth when necessary (6 Gbps, 12 Gbps…), interoperability between IC coming from different sources: Camera Controllers (CMOS Image Sensor), Display Controller, RF Modem, Audio Codec and an Application Processor. It take advantage of the massive move from parallel to serial interconnect we have seen, illustrated by PCI Express replacing PCI, SATA replacing PATA etc… to use similar technologies in Mobile Devices, where low power is key, as well as the needs for higher and higher bandwidth.
