MIPI Interface on iMX6Q

carlosaguero — Fri, 22 Jan 2016 16:14:14 GMT

Hi,

I am trying to configure the iMX6 MIPI interface to use a source that provides MIPI in "non-continuous" clock mode. We have been able to use the iMX6Q with continuous clock mode using OV5640, OV5647, OV5648 video sensors, but now we have a sensor that can't be configured in continuous clock mode.

Question1:

Could somebody please provide information about configuring the iMX6 in non-continuous clock mode for the iMX6?

Currently we found this thread at the community: https://community.freescale.com/thread/341656

Previous link is about a question made to Freescale about the non-continuous clock mode, it states that it is supported but not implemented, also it indicates that there is no documentation on how to configure the iMX6 on non-continuous clock mode.

Question2:

Could you please provide some documentation (if it exists) or hint on how to configure the iMX6 MIPI in non-continuous clock mode?

Question3:

If there is no documentation about MIPI in non-continuous clock mode. Does this means that the iMX6Q MIPI has been used only in continuous clock mode?

Regards and thank you for your time,

Carlos.

Hi Carlos

latest update from designers:

Non Continuous clock mode is not supported.

There will be added further clarification in the manual that this mode is not supported.

Sorry for confusion.

Best regards

igor
