DS90UB962-Q1: basic synchronized forwarding mode questions

Part Number: DS90UB962-Q1

Hello,

One customer used DS90UB962 for their automotive application. He need to set up 30MHz frame sync with cameras connected DS90UB933. The frame sync mode is basic synchronized forwarding mode, and 0x21=0x14. Now the GPIO1 of cameras have generated 30Hz frame sync square waveform, but when he switched reversing car with full view, it would appear green screen and columnar stripe. What is the reason? The back channel bandwidth is 2.5Mbps, 0x1F=1.6Gbps, the data type is also correct. 

Below is his configuration:

ds90ub962_i2c_write(0x01, 0x02);//reset all digital part
SENSOR_MSLEEP(20);
ds90ub962_i2c_write(0x0C, 0x0F); //I2C mappings............port EN
ds90ub962_i2c_write(0x1F, 0x00); //

ds90ub962_i2c_write(0x4C,0x01); //# RX0
ds90ub962_i2c_write(0x6E,0xA0); //# BC_GPIO_CTL0: FrameSync signal to GPIO1
ds90ub962_i2c_write(0x4C,0x12); //# RX1
ds90ub962_i2c_write(0x6E,0xA0); //# BC_GPIO_CTL0: FrameSync signal to GPIO1
ds90ub962_i2c_write(0x4C,0x24); //# RX2
ds90ub962_i2c_write(0x6E,0xA0); //# BC_GPIO_CTL0: FrameSync signal to GPIO1
ds90ub962_i2c_write(0x4C,0x38); //# RX3
ds90ub962_i2c_write(0x6E,0xA0); //# BC_GPIO_CTL0: FrameSync signal to GPIO1

ds90ub962_i2c_write(0x19, 0x01); //FS_HIGH_TIME_1
ds90ub962_i2c_write(0x1A, 0x14); //FS_HIGH_TIME_0
ds90ub962_i2c_write(0x1B, 0x09); //FS_LOW_TIME_1
ds90ub962_i2c_write(0x1C, 0xbc); //FS_LOW_TIME_0

ds90ub962_i2c_write(0x18, 0x01); //ENABLE FRAME SYNC

  • Hi,

    Thanks for your inquiry and providing details on the issue which has occurred. I have a few quick questions to help me understand this problem:

    1. Do you have any background on how many systems show this display this issue?
    2. Have you tried enabling round robin forwarding using register 0x21[0], if so, does the display still show anomalies?
    3. When writing the FWD_CTL2 register, bit 4 is being written when it's denoted as reserved, please avoid writing this register
    4. I believe it's a typo in line frame sync frequency requested (should be 30Hz not 30MHz), could you confirm?

    Best,

    Thomas
