MIPI D-PHY CSI-2 RX IP

Overview

Innosilicon CSI-2 Receiver implements MIPI CSI-2 protocol as well as 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 D-PHY is used for the data transmission from a CSI-2 compliant camera sensor. 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.
? The 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, including Pixel Unpacking, Low Level Protocol, and Lane Management.
