• Networking: • Symmetric comms between ECUs

• Edge: • Asymmetric comms from cameras-to-ECU and ECU-to- displays

• MIPI is focused on asymmetric communications, leveraging its long history of protocol and SerDes PHY specification developments

HDCP for premium content over DP/eDP and DSI-2 is also supported.

By “certified” it is meant those camera/display peripherals that have been provisioned by a key authority(s) to support the MIPI security standards of authentication, encryption and integrity protection.

20 | © 2020 MIPI Alliance, Inc. MIPI A-PHY Overview Asymmetric SerDes physical layer specification targeted for ADAS/ADS surround sensor applications and infotainment display applications

A-PHY v1.0 offers: • Direct coupling to CSI- 2/DSI-2/DP-eDP protocols, supporting bridge-based & endpoint integration • High performance of 2- 16 Gbps over 10-15m, with roadmap to 24- 48+ Gbps • High noise immunity, ultra-low PER (< 10-19) Lower cost through standardization and economies of scale Lower cost/eBOM through integration • Support for automotive coax and SDP channels

21 | © 2020 MIPI Alliance, Inc. A-PHY Performance and Immunity-Based Profiles Performance requirements vary: • 8MP camera sensors might require “8 Gbps” per camera • 4K displays might require “16 Gbps” per display (uncompressed) • These interface speeds increase with aggregation and daisy- chain use cases

Noise immunity (EMC RF Ingress) requirements vary: • Different OEMs have different requirements • MIPI-conducted tests in independent labs evaluated noise levels and shielding effect degradation after mechanical stress and aging

A-PHY supports two performance & immunity profiles: • P1 (NRZ): Lower noise immunity, similar to other SerDes Performance- and Immunity-based profiles: solutions, and applicable to the lower speed gears (G1 and • P1 offers the lowest cost at the lower performance needs G2, optional at G3) • P2 offers the highest performance and immunity • P2 (PAM-X): Very high noise immunity to meet the expected noise levels over 10-15m and the car lifetime period

23 | © 2020 MIPI Alliance, Inc. Concluding Thoughts

• Asymmetric interfaces are key to surround sensor applications for ADAS/autonomous driving • MIPI A-PHY is the first long-reach asymmetric SerDes PHY standard, offering performance- and immunity-based profiles to meet a broad spectrum of requirements • With A-PHY as its foundation, MASS leverages existing protocols (MIPI CSI-2 and DSI-2, VESA DP and eDP, and more) to simplify integration while adding functional safety and security • This approach enables end-to-end data protection, from data source to data sink • Standardization drives economies of scale, increases choice and interoperability, and reduces cost and eBOM • The majority of MASS specifications will be completed by early 2021
