Adapting FPGA LVDS to MIPI - CSI camera interface
nachodizz990 , 07-19-2016, 06:16 PM
-Hi all,
-I´m planning to buy a new HI RES camera module for my Arrow Sockit board dev board because the Raspberry pi compatible modules are cheap and my actual camera module(parallel) it´s getting old.
-I read that MIPI CSI is not compatible with LVDS (MiPI uses a physical layer called D-Phy)
-There are one LVDS to D phy ic adapters but there are hard to find.
So i have 2 solutions:
- Design an adapter interface (Xilinx haves some guidelines but they advertise that at high speeds can fail)
- Pass the MIPI CSI camera trough this ic TC358748XBG that is a mipi decoder
Any ideas?
