The MIPI CSI-2 (Camera Serial Interface) defines an interface between a peripheral device (camera) and host processor (application engine) for mobile applications. The MIPI CSI-2 provides the mobile industry a standard, robust, scalable, low-power, high-speed, cost-effective interface that supports a wide range of imaging solutions for mobile devices.
Features
• Compliance as per MIPI-CSI-2 version3.0
• Compliance with C-PHY 2.0 for MIPI CSI-2 Version3.0
• Compliance with D-PHY 2.5 for MIPI CSI-2 Version3.0
• Compatibility with I2C and I3C(SDR,DDR) for CCI interface
• CSI-2 Receiver supports C-PHY 2.0/ D-PHY 2.5/ A-PHY/ M-PHY. Only one PHY layer can be configured at a time of transmission
• Processor Interfaces are AHB Lite/APB/AXI for configuration
• CSI-2 Receiver Supports Lane merging Function from N-Lanes and consolidate into complete packet for LLP
• In D-PHY, CSI-2 Receiver will detect the de-skew pattern. On communication with low transmit frequencies, it will bypass the de-skew mechanism
• In C-PHY, CSI-2 Receiver supports the sync word detection during payload reception
• Pixel format supported are: YUV (420/422), RGB (888/666/565/555/444), RAW (6/7/8/10/12/14/16/20/24), Generic 8-bit long packet data types, user defined byte based data
• Supports 16 Virtual channels for D-PHY and 32 Virtual channels for C-PHY
• Supports error detection in data payload, data interleaving, scrambling and descrambling
• Supports byte to pixel conversion in LLP layer
