Hi

I want to use RAW 8bit data output by RAW 10bit image sensor.

I want to get low 8 bit data only for it.

How can i do it?

Hi,

In the Image Sensor Configuration of the CX3 Configuration Tool, you can choose Input format as RAW10 and output format as 16-bit. Then in the firmware you can configure the GPIF bus width as 8.

By doing the above, MIPI block of CX3 will be sending 10 bits of the pixel data and 6 zeros in once clock BUT the GPIF will be sampling only 8 bits as you require.
