2.2.9 APIX
Pic. 211: APIX connectors
APIX is a serial Gbit/s link for incar infotainment and driver assistance systems. It features
unidirectional pixel and fullduplex sideband data transmission over one single pair of a shielded
twisted pair ( STP ) copper cable. The downlink channel provides a sustained data rate of up to
1 Gbit / s, another 18 Mbit / s can be transmitted simultaneously in uplink direction.
The APIX interface 0 from the JADED is connected to connector X801 with pinning for input
side.
The APIX interface 1 from the JADED is connected to connector X802 with pinning for output
side.
On revision PA3 both connectors have input pinning.
The lines have no external ESD protection diodes because the 1.2 V APIX power supply is not
available on this board. The internal protection of the JADED is for up to 2 kV.
