That's how it works on most sensors nowadays. Just to clarify, this is not a sensor: "The Alvium camera is shipped with sensor + isp in the same housing. The camera can be equipped with one out of various sensor and abstract the user from this. Camera is connected via MIPI CSI-2." > > The description is also lacking details on what delay this exactly is. What > is the bus state during that delay? Previously we have a brief thread with Laurent about the behaviour of this reg/property, I repost here: "Thanks to Martin Hecht I'm able to provide you a clearer description: Alvium normally delivers a continous clock even when it is not streaming. The purpose of this reg is force a DPhy reset for the period described by the us on the reg before it starts streaming. To be clear, with that value bigger than 0 the Alvium forces a dphy-reset on all lanes for that period. That means all lanes go up into low power state. This may help a csi2 rx ip to reset if that IP can't deal with a continous clock." Hope these infos can clarify. Let me know. Thanks, Tommaso > > -- > Regards, > > Sakari Ailus
