Deserializer Boards

Deserializer Boards are only needed when connecting to a Demo2X baseboard.
The Demo3 baseboard, along with the Demo2X headboard-to-Demo3 adapter (AGB2N0CS), remove the need for a deserializer board; this link provides additional information on Demo3 connections.

Aptina sensor headboards typically support a parallel data interface.  Some headboards support alternate data interfaces such as CCP, MIPI or HiSPi.  These can be in-addition-to or in-place-of the parallel data interface.  The physical serial output is via RJ45 connector, using CAT6 cabling for interconnections.  The number of interface data lines will determine the number of jacks and cables required:

Deserializer boards receive this serial data output and convert it into parallel form for input into the Demo2X (no longer being shipped).  So the usual physical setup will consist of a sensor headboard connected to a deserializer board which is connected to a Demo2X.  Various examples of these deserializer "assemblies" follow:

For detailed information on specific Aptina deserializer boards see the following:
