Chapter 3:

Designing with the Subsystem

Clocking

The subsystem clocks are described in 

Table 3-1

. Clock frequencies should be selected to 

match the throughput requirement of the downstream video pipe IP cores.

The MIPI CSI-2 RX Subsystem clocking structure is illustrated in 

Figure 3-7

 and 

Table 3-2

.

Subsystem Clocks

Clock Name

Description

lite_aclk

(1)

AXI4-Lite clock used by the register interface of all IP cores in the subsystem.

video_aclk

(2)

Clock used as core clock for all IP cores in the subsystem.

dphy_clk_200M

See the 

MIPI D-PHY LogiCORE IP Product Guide (

PG202

[Ref 3]

 for information 

on this clock.

clkoutphy_out

The 

clkoutphy_out

 signal is generated within the PLL with 2500 Mb/s line 

rate when the 

Include Shared logic in core

 option is selected.

clkoutphy_in

The 

clkoutphy_in

 signal should be connected to the 

clkoutphy_out

 signal 

generated when the 

Include Shared logic in core

 option is selected.

Notes: 

1. The lite_aclk clock should be less than or equal to video_aclk.
2. Maximum recommended video clock is 250 MHz for Ult devices and 175 MHz for 7 Series devices. If 

required, a higher throughput can be achieved by increasing the Pixels per clock option from Single to Dual or 

Quad.
