PRODUCTION DATA
In synchronized forwarding, the forwarding engine may be programmed to merge video frames from multiple sources into a single video frame by concatenating video lines. Each of the sensors attached to each RX Port carry different data streams that get concatenated into one CSI-2 stream. For example, if forwarding from both input ports, only one FS an FE packet is sent for each video frame. The synchronization packets for the other port is dropped. In addition, the video lines from each sensor are combined into a single line. The controller must separate the single video line into the separate components based on position within the concatenated video line.
Example Synchronized traffic to CSI-2 Transmit port at start of frame:
FS_A – SA_L1,SB_L1 – SA_L2,SB_L2 – SA_L3,SB_L3 …
Example Synchronized traffic to CSI-2 Transmit port at end of frame:
... SA_LN,SB_LN – FE_A
Notes:
Packets would have the same VC ID, based on the VC ID for the lowest number Sensor port being forwarded.
Lines are concatenated on a byte basis without padding between video line data.
