Overview

MIPI CSI-2 Transmitter interface provides full support for the two-wire MIPI CSI2 serial interface, compatible with MIPI CSI-2 Specification version 2.1. It is typically residing in a camera module and provides communication to MIPI CSI-2 receiver in an image application processor over the serial PHY link. MIPI CSI-2 Transmitter IIP is fully configurable and proven in FPGA environment. The host interface of the MIPI CSI-2 can be simple interface or can be AMBA APB, AMBA AHB, AMBA AHB-Lite, AMBA AXI, AMBA AXI-Lite, VCI, OCP, Avalon, PLB, Tilelink, Wishbone or Custom protocol.

MIPI CSI-2 Transmitter IIP is supported natively in Verilog and VHDL
