MIPI Deployment in Ultra-low-power Streaming Sensors
Streams of data from higher-speed sensors pose throughput and latency challenges for designers. However, optimizing a design for those criteria can come at the expense of increased power consumption if not conceived and executed carefully. A device like a high-resolution, high-frame-rate home security camera in a non-wired application requiring frequent battery changes or recharging will likely register strong dissatisfaction among most users, even if it delivers its stream at full quality when working. Interfacing streaming sensors with MIPI® helps designers balance performance with power consumption by leveraging various modes of operation: high speed, ultra-low power, or something in between.
