DSI Host IP Core by Arasan Chip Systems, Inc.

Product Description

The Arasan DSI Host Controller IP is designed to provide MIPI DSI 1.02 compliant high speed serial connectivity for mobile application processors using 1 to 4 D-PHYs depending on bandwidth needs. Serial connectivity to the display module’s DSI device is implemented using 1 to 4 D-PHY’s (also available from Arasan), depending on display bandwidth needs. This IP connects to the D-PHY’s through the PPI interface.

On the application processor side, Arasan’s DSI Host Controller provides the choice of DPI or DBI Interface to a graphics controller. A DBI interface provides downstream support of Types 1 to 3 display modules, and the DPI Interface is needed for Types 2 to 4 displays.

Initial configuration of this IP can be done through programmed IO over the AHB bus, however, other bus interfaces can be provided upon request.
