Moving MIPI VC0 to IPU0-CSI1

richogrady — Thu, 04 May 2017 22:19:15 GMT

We are working on an IMX6D design where we want to use the 2 parallel inputs and a mipi channel to support 3 analog cameras (simultaneously). The problem we have run into is that the MIPI chip only transmits as VC0 (Virtual Channel 0). And on the imx6, VC0 only muxes into IPU0-CSI0. Is there some way to have the gasket forward VC0 to either IPU0-CSI1 or IPU1-CSI0?

for mx6DQ:

IPU0-CSI0: can be connected to parallel interface(GPR1 bit19 is 1) or to mipi-csi2 virtual channel0(GPR1 bit19 is 0).

IPU0-CSI1:can only be connected to mipi-csi2 virtual channel1.

IPU1-CSI0:can only be connected to mipi-csi2 virtual channel2.

IPU1-CSI1: can be connected to parallel interface(GPR1 bit20 is 1) or to mipi-csi2 virtual channel3(GPR1 bit 20 is 0).
