MIPI D-PHY/LVDS Combo TX IP

Overview

Silicon Library (SLI)’s MIPI D-PHY/LVDS Combo Tx IP solution is compliant with both MIPI D-PHY version 1.2 and LVDS specifications that can be applied to OpenLDI V0.95, which is the best solution to save both the pin counts and die area of modern SoCs. This IP solution is provided as the combination of physical layer (PHY) hard macro and D-PHY Control and Interface Logic (CIL) soft macro. Each of six lanes, supporting a maximum data rate of 1.5 Gbps, can be configured as either data lane or clock lane according to the pin assignment preference. Two PLLs with programmable frequency dividers are included in PHY.
