2.3 Camera Specific Firmware for Camera Link Models (CL Models Only)
The Flow-Thru architecture is flexible and can be adapted to different cameras archi-
tectures. The main intelligence is in the firmware that gets downloaded into the on-
board Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs). This firmware is different for every
camera architecture. The firmware is called out in the camera file. On initialization, the
driver will download into the FPGAs the firmware called-out in the camera file.
The type of the firmware is hard-coded in the FORMAT field in register CON10. The
list of the formats is shown in Table 2-1
Note: Not all models support all formats. Only formats that are possible are supported.
For example, the Neon, which is Base Camera Link only, will not support the MUX_8TS
format as the is a Full Camera Link format.
