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:
Number of interface data lanes | Number of CAT6 connections required |
|---|---|
| 1 | 1 |
| 2, 3, or 4 | 2 |
| 8 | 4 |
Deserializer boards receive this serial data output and convert it into parallel form for input into the Demo2X. 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:
- MIPI CCP RX (a.k.a. Single Lane MIPI) board
- DUAL MIPI RX (a.k.a. Dual Lane MIPI) board
- High Speed Serial Adapter Board (HSSAB)
- HDMI Low Cost (HDMI-LC) board
- HDMI board
