Hi TI expert
I'm looking for guidance and road map on your Video SerDes interfaces. I have a couple questions to start:
1) Do the Serializer/Deserializers work in specific pairs, or can they be mixed and matched? For example, do we have go from MIPI -> Serializer -> Deser -> MIPI, or can do Parallel -> Ser -> Des ->MIPI?
2) Do you have a roadmap for high definition video. I believe current technology allows for 1080 video, but any path to get to something like 4K?
3) We are currently targeting three video interfaces Composite, HD-SDI, and HDMI. I know Composite and HD-SDI will need some intermediate bridges. Any suggestions for specific chips? We'd like to use a common deserializer to MIPI for all the interfaces.
Please let me know your thoughts.
Best regards,
Thomas
