OUTPUT DATA FORMAT
Serial Pixel Data Interface
The MT9J003 supports RAW8, RAW10, and RAW12
image data formats over a serial interface. The sensor
supports a 1 and 2-lane MIPI as well as the HiSPi interface.
These interfaces are not described in the data sheet.
High Speed Serial Pixel Interface
The High Speed Serial Pixel (HiSPi) interface uses four
data and one clock low voltage differential signaling
(LVDS) outputs.
• SLVS_CP, SLVS_CN
• SLVS_[0:3]P, SLVS_[0:3]N
The HiSPi interface supports two protocols, streaming
and packetized. The streaming protocol conforms to a
standard video application where each line of active or
intra-frame blanking provided by the sensor is transmitted
at the same length. The packetized protocol will transmit
only the active data ignoring line-to-line and frame-to-frame
blanking data.
The HiSPi interface building block is a unidirectional
differential serial interface with four data and one double
data rate (DDR) clock lanes. One clock for every four serial
data lanes is provided for phase alignment across multiple
lanes. Figure 7 shows the configuration between the HiSPi
transmitter and the receiver.

HiSPi Physical Layer
The HiSPi physical layer is partitioned into blocks of four
data lanes and an associated clock lane. Any reference to the
PHY in the remainder of this document is referring to this
minimum building block.
The PHY will serialize a 10-, 12-, 14- or 16-bit data word
and transmit each bit of data centered on a rising edge of the
clock, the second on the following edge of clock. Figure 8
shows bit transmission. In this example, the word is
transmitted in order of MSB to LSB. The receiver latches
data at the rising and falling edge of the clock.
