IP used in Zybo-Z7 MIPI Pcam 5C demo

[jge64]

I assume the MIPI IP is already used in the demo. What is the IP?

Is it from Xilinx (MIPI CSI Controller Subsystems)? as https://www.xilinx.com/products/intellectual-property/ef-di-mipi-csi-rx.html

     --but it is stated that the IP is targeted to Kintex-7 and Zynq UltraScale, Not to the Zynq-7010/20 as used on the Zybo-Z7?

     --anyone familar with the license terms and the pricing? (site-based or for each device installed?)

Or is it from the NorthWest Logic?

 -- which stated as targeted for Zynq-7000 (as used on hte Zybo-z7).

 --anyone familiar with the license terms and pricing?

 

Thanks,

Hi @jge64,

The Zybo-Z7 Demo made for Vivado 2017.4  uses the  MIPI CSI-2 Receiver as well as the MIPI_D_PHY_RX_0.  I do not believe these  IP Cores have a cost. I have attached a screen shot of the demo's block design. 

thank you,

Jon

There is also some more details on what we use in our connector on this thread here: https://forum.digilentinc.com/topic/15718-mipi-to-digilent-board-transfer-rate-which-boards-work/#comment-38281.

But from the IP cata

Thanks,

But from the IP catalog, if the IPs are from Xilinx, they are labled as 'Purchase':

Hi @jge64,

Looking a little closer the IP Cores we made by Digilent. You can find them in the Vivado library here.  Here and here are the PDF's for each IP Cores.

thank you,

Thank you, jpeyron, I'll give it a try.

Does anyone know if these MIPI_D_PHY_RX_ 0 and MIPI_CSI_2_RX_0 could directly be reclaced by the MIPI_CSI_2_RX of the last version avaiable at digilent for vivado 2018.2 ?

Hi @Esti.A,

Can you be more specific? 

The Vivado library branch here has the updated  MIPI_D_PHY_RX and MIPI_CSI_2_RX.  These IP Cores were updated by the creator of these IP cores and should work are described in this forum thread here. Here is a forum thread that discusses some of the difference between Digilent's MIPI_D_PHY_RX  and MIPI_CSI_2_RX IP Cores and those that are available for purchase.

best regards,
