MIPI deployment in ultra-low-power streaming sensors
This article focuses on low-power scenarios with streaming sensors connected to a processor via MIPI. After a short overview of low-duty cycle sensor principles, we explore how a streaming image sensor leverages those principles, show how one semiconductor company uses MIPI CSI-2® and D-PHY interfaces in their imaging solution, and touch on use cases for ultra-low-power streaming sensors deploying MIPI.
MIPI in next generation of AI IoT devices at the edge
One of the original benefits of processing in the cloud in was simply to expand beyond the limited capacity of on-site processing. With advancements in AI, more and more decisions can be made at the edge. It is now clear that edge and cloud processing are complementary technologies; they are both essential to achieve optimal system performance. Designers of connected systems must ask, what is the most efficient system partitioning between the cloud and edge?
MIPI Drives Performance for Next-Generation Displays
In this white paper, we will explore the history of MIPI display technology, (DSI and DSI-2), MIPI display markets, and the emerging bandwidth gap given the performance requirements of next- generation displays.
Towards Self-Driving Cars: MIPI D-PHY Enabling Advanced Automotive Applications
Since the invention of the automobile well over a century ago, car manufacturers have been focused on creating the highest-speed, safest, and most fuel-efficient cars possible.
Demystifying MIPI C-PHY / DPHY Subsystem
The newest member of the MIPI® PHY family, the C-PHY, arrived in October 2014 to a mixture of excitement and apprehension. How would this new C-PHY compare to the MIPI D-PHY and M-PHY®? What would differentiate the C-PHY, and would it be compatible enough with the D-PHY so that both could coexist in a hybrid subsystem? Now, years later, the answers are clear.
