TIDA-01130 Reference Design

Texas Instruments

Automotive 2-MP camera module reference design with MIPI CSI-2 video interface: FPD-Link III and POC

Description

The TIDA-01130 reference design demonstrates a very small solution size for 2-MP automotive cameras with the capability of much faster forward channel data rate speeds by using MIPI CSI-2 interface and TI's 4Gbps FPD-Link III serializer. The higher throughput capability of this camera enables CMS and Rear Camera applications to use higher resolution and faster frame rate imagers which are critical when replacing mirrors. In addition: the camera includes one single Fakra connector for Power Over Coax (POC). Using POC: the camera can be powered from a central ECU: and over the same coax cable: the camera can transmit video data to the central processor and be initialized over I2C backchannel from the processor.
