Hi,

I'm thinking about using CX3 with the following sensor module.

is it possible to use it with CX3 ? For a resolution Ultra HD from two sensors ?

Hello ahsa_4793071​,

In the link you shared for the image sensor, I see the Resolution: 3280 × 2464 (per camera).

The data rate per sensor: 3280 x 2464 x 60 (fps) x 16 (bits/pxl) = 7,758,643,200 b = 7399.21875 Mb = ~7.23Gbps

This is way beyond the USB bandwidth of 2.4Gbps supported by CX3.
Also, there is no mention of the type of interface for the image sensor, whether it is a parallel interface or a MIPI interface, which is necessary to suggest between CX3 and FX3.

CX3 supports interfacing of MIPI interface image sensors whereas FX3 can be used to interface LVDS/ parallel interface image sensors

Can you please let me know the exact resolution and fps you want to use CX3 for?
Also, can you let me know what is the output video format of the sensor?

Regards,

Yashwant
