SubLVDS Image Sensor Receiver IP Core

Convert SubLVDS Image Sensor Video Stream to Pixel Clock Domain

The Lattice Semiconductor SubLVDS Image Sensor Receiver IP Core converts double data rate interface to pixel clock domain. The subLVDS interface is primarily used in image sensors. It has one clock pair and more than one data pairs. The number of data pairs varies, depending on bandwidth requirement.

Features

  • 1 channel
  • Supports 4, 6, 8, or 10 data lanes from an image sensor
  • Supports 10-bit (RAW10) or 12-bit (RAW12) pixel widths
  • Supports gearing of 8 and 16. Gearing 16 option is only for 4-lane configuration
  • Can generate XVS and XHS for image sensors operating in Slave mode

*Note: The Fmax provided here is shown to give affirmation to the user that that target frequency for a certain bitrate is attainable. While it is possible that the maximum frequency could be higher than the one described below, the IP is bounded to limit it in order to maintain the user’s desired configuration.
