SV4E-CPRXG MIPI C-PHY Frame Grabber
The SV4E-CPRXG MIPI C-PHY Frame Grabber by Introspect is a versatile tool designed for capturing and analyzing CSI-2 sensor data. Supporting any rate operation from 80 Msps to 3.5 Gsps and any MIPI® CSI-2SM lane configuration, it handles all CSI-2 data types and pixel formats, including RAW16 and RAW20. The grabber offers automatic isolation of virtual channels in accordance with the latest CSI-2 specifications and includes integrated I2C and MIPI® I3CSM masters for controlling sensors under test. It supports contiguous frame capture at the maximum frame rate defined by MIPI specifications and features advanced exposure control through frame start and line start trigger I/Os. Additional capabilities include built-in frame rate monitoring and programmable power supplies for automating sensor power cycles.
The SV4E-CPRXG easily connects to any CSI-2 camera or radar output and automatically extracts image data, streamlining application development, calibration, and regression testing. As MIPI CSI-2 sensors expand into more use cases, the need for reliable and adaptable frame grabber solutions grows. Introspect Technology addresses this with its proprietary analog front-end for C-PHY, enabling dependable sensor validation and eliminating common attachment issues associated with conventional tools.
