The DS90UB954-Q1 is a versatile dual deserializer hub, from Texas Instruments, capable of receiving serialized sensor data from one or two independent sources through an FPD-Link III interface. When paired with a DS90UB953-Q1 serializer, the DS90UB954-Q1 receives data from imagers, supporting 2MP/60fps and 4MP/30fps cameras as well as satellite RADAR and other sensors such as ToF and LIDAR. Data is received and aggregated into a MIPI CSI-2 compliant output for interconnect to a downstream processor. For sensors with DS90UB933-Q1 and DS90UB913A-Q1 serializers, the DS90UB954-Q1 receives and aggregates data from one or two sensors including Full HD 1080p 2MP 60/fps imager sensors. When configuring the CSI-2 interface for two-lane operation a duplicate MIPI CSI-2 clock lane is available to provide a replicated output. Replication mode creates two copies of the aggregated video stream for data logging and parallel processing.
The DS90UB954-Q1 and partner DS90UB953-Q1 chipset is AEC-Q100 qualified and designed to receive data across either 50ohm single-ended coaxial or 100ohm differential STP cables. The deserializer hub is ideal for Power-over-Coax applications and the receive equalizer automatically adapts to compensate for cable loss characteristics with no additional programming required, including degradation over time.
Each FPD-Link III interface includes a separate low latency BCC that continuously conveys I2C, GPIO, and other control information. GPIO signals purposed for sensor synchronization and diagnostic features also make use of the BCC.
