MIPI D-PHY Combo LVDS DSI TX IP

Overview

Innosilicon MIPI DSI Transmitter implements DSI, MIPI D-PHY, and LVDS protocol. The DSI 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 MIPI DSI specification is specifically targeted for the display communication in image application processors.
Innosilicon MIPI DSI Transmitter operates as a transmitter of a DSI link, which consists of a D-PHY, LVDS, and a DSI Controller.
? The Innosilicon D-PHY is used for the data transmission from a DSI controller. In D-PHY, the link includes a High-Speed signaling for fast-data traffic and a low-power signaling mode for control purposes. Error information is generated for application layer to do further operation.
? Innosilicon LVDS implements the LVDS TIA/EIA protocol. Normally, Innosilicon LVDS contains five Low-Voltage Differential Signaling (LVDS) line drivers in a single integrated circuit.
? Innosilicon MIPI DSI Controller works as a protocol layer between application layer and physical layer, which mainly aims to pack and distribute the pixels to the physical layers. Innosilicon DSI Controller implements all three layers defined by MIPI DSI specification, including Pixel/Byte Packing, Low Level Protocol, and Lane Management.
