VS6552
3.6 Control and Video Interface Formats
3.6.1 Overview
Data is transferred from VS6552 to STV0974 via a
high speed serial link (VisionLink). The serial data
link comprises of two pairs of wires. The serial
control data is transferred between the VS6552 to
STV0974 via a private I
2
C bus.
3.6.2 VisionLink Physical Layer
Data signals (PDATAP and PDATAN) and clock
signals (PCLKP and PCLKN) are transferred from
VS6552 to STV0974 via 2 pairs of balanced 100
impedance transmission lines.
The transmission line pairs and custom transmit-
ters/receivers realize a very low voltage differential
(vLVDS) signalling scheme that can transfer infor-
mation in a potentially noisy environment. As im-
plemented in VS6552, VisionLink supports the
transmission of raw Bayer data at VGA resolution
up to 30 frame/s.
3.6.3 Serial I2C Control Bus
The internal registers in VS6552 can be config-
ured by STV0974 via a private I
2
C bus. STV0974
is the bus master and VS6552 is the single slave.
VS6552 sends and receives commands over this
bus at up to 400 kHz.
