Please see the questions below. Thanks in advance.
Sync / non-sync mode:
- In non-sync mode back-channel data rate is lower (10 vs. 50 Mbps). Does this have an effect on PoC filter inductor value (more than 10 µH)?
- Sync mode: In this mode the deserializer must be connected to a clock source? This clock can also be used for the imager via PLL? Are there any restrictions to the output clock like specific frequencies can not be provided?
Diagnostics:
- Can voltage (via GPIO0 and 1) and temperature monitoring be performed simultaneously?
- Is it possible to do forward channel diagnostics while streaming? I guess this is done by CRC check?
- Can open or shorted cable be detected with UB953 and UB954 combination?
- Bit-error rate measurement: Can this be performed inside the chip? Or would we need to attach an oscilloscope to measure it?
CLK_OUT/IDX:
For automotive application you need to use lower value resistors because >100 kOhm are not allowed at most of the OEMs. Would be 56 k and 12 k ok?
