Maybe the usage of 'sample' is not right ?

I didn't get the last part about the MQ. I thought the NW csi-2 receiver worked with 8-bit samples that's why we need to maintain the CSI bridge compatible with the 2X8 format variant (this and also for imx7 + parallel). Actually, looking at the MQ reference manual "15.2.1.3.5 CSI-2 Controller Core Configurations" reports: The CSI-2 RX Controller Core User Interface supports either a single, double, or quad pixel wide data path. The double and quad wide pixel modes can help reduce the frequency the user interface must run at while the single pixel wide mode can be easier to interface to for some applications. This chip supports the following: • Single Pixel Configuration It seems the csi-2 receiver on the MQ works in single pixel mode only. It should then expose the 2X8 format variant only, which is technically incorrect for a serial transmitter.
