Verification IP for C-PHY

草榴社区 Verification IP (VIP) for MIPI Camera Serial Interface 2 (CSI-2) provides a comprehensive set of protocol, methodology, verification and productivity features enabling users to achieve rapid verification of MIPI CSI TX and RX devices. It supports data-type interleaving frames, normal frames and Virtual Channel ID interleaving frames. It simplifies testbench development by enabling engineers to use a single VIP to verify multiple transmission modes across the full CSI-2 protocol.
