SERDES24-35OVT_14 Datasheet, PDF (2/5 Pages) National Semiconductor (TI) – Evaluation Kit for OV7710 Image Sensor Application with a FPD-Link II

Description:
The SERDES24-35OVT is an evaluation kit designed to demonstrate
performance and capabilities of the DS90C124 and DS90C241 FPD-Link II
Serializer/Deserializer Chipset for use with the OmniVision “CLOTHO”
development system that features the OV7710 640 x 480 Color Image Sensor.
This serves as an add-on to the OmniVision development system, providing a
serialized digital interface between camera and controller.
The DS90C241 Serializer board accepts LVCMOS input signals from the Image
Sensor and provides single serialized FPD-Link II LVDS data pair as an output.
The DS90C124 Deserializer board accepts the FPD-Link II LVDS serialized data
stream and converts the data back into parallel LVCMOS signals and clock that
connects to the OmniVision USB Host Board.
