MIPI CSI
Both MIPI CSI interfaces provided by the TQMa8MPxL are routed to connector X57 on the bottom of the MBa8MPxL.
With a single camera, up to 4k at 45 FPS are supported, when using two cameras, the support splits to 1080p at 80 fps each.
Both CSI interfaces provide an I
2
C bus, four GPIO signals (reset, power enable, trigger, sync) and a master clock output on the
connector.
The GPIO signals of the CSI0 interface are connected to the ECSPI1 signals, which are multiplexed as GPIO for this purpose. The
GPIO signals of CSI1 are not connected by default due to missing software support. Instead, the ECSPI2 interface is provided on a
pin header. If a use as GPIO is required, this can be made possible by equipping 0 Ω resistors.
The I
2
C buses operate at 1.8 V and are connected to I2C4 via a level shifter on the MBa8MPxL. CSI0 can optionally be connected
to another I
2
C bus
to avoid address conflicts.
The master clock signals can be connected to the Clock Control Module of the i.MX 8M Plus. Via this Clock Control Module both
CSIs can be supplied with a reference clock each. The 0 Ω bridge for the connection is not assembled by default.
5 V are provided at pins 56, 58 and 60. This voltage may be loaded with a maximum of 300 mA.
