Lattice Semiconductor has addressed the issue of multiple image sensor and display interface protocols with an FPGA-based bridge chip.
Essentially, the device, called CrossLink, is a video interface bridge with a fast MIPI D-PHY capability that delivers up to 4K ultra-HD resolution at 12Gbit/s bandwidth.
Protocols supported include MIPI D-PHY, MIPI CSI-2, MIPI DSI, MIPI DPI, CMOS, SubLVDS and LVDS. Package size can be as small as 6mm square.
The chip can multiplex, merge and arbitrate between multiple image sensors to a single input. The device can also interface between high-end industrial and lower specification A/V image sensors with mobile application processors.
