ESD Warning
Electronic components and circuits are sensitive to
ElectroStatic Discharge (ESD). When handling any
circuit board assemblies including Connect Tech
COM Express carrier assemblies, it is recommended
that ESD safety precautions be observed. ESD safe
best practices include, but are not limited to:
•Leaving circuit boards in their antistatic
packaging until they are ready to be installed.
•Using a grounded wrist strap when handling
circuit boards, at a minimum you should touch a
grounded metal object to dissipate any static
charge that may be present on you.
•Only handling circuit boards in ESD safe areas,
which may include ESD floor and table mats,
wrist strap stations and ESD safe lab coats.
•Avoiding handling circuit boards in carpeted
areas.
•Try to handle the board by the edges, avoiding
contact with components.

External GPIO Connector Pinout
The J1 jumper must be ON for use of external GPIOs. The jumper overrides the internal GPIOs for use of
external GPIOs. Suggested Voltage level for external GPIO is 3.3V.
External GPIOs are directly routed to GPIO pins on the MIPI CSI connector. Alvium GPIOs use CMOS push-
pull output drivers and Schmitt trigger inputs with an internal 3.3V pull-up resistor. The push-pull Alvium
GPIOs are able to source or sink current from the Allied Vision Camera board external GPIOs.
Note:
External GPIOs are available on JCB005 revision D and above with CBG489. Alvium GPIO direction is dependent on camera firmware.
When Alvium GPIOs are set to inputs, do not go above maximum value of +5.5V DC. Exceeding maximum input voltage will damage the
camera. When Alvium GPIOs are set to output:
Max. current = 12 mA per output
Max. Out VCC = 3.3 VDC

External Power Connector
The Allied Vision Camera Board when integrated with a Rogue/Rogue-X carrier board does not require an
external power source for the specified Alvium sensor cameras. Our Connect Tech Rogue/Rogue-X carrier
boards allow for 12V input voltage through the Samtec MIPI Camera Expansion Connector.
Typical power consumption per specified Alvium sensor is approximately 2W. The external power
connector is available for future Allied Vision Alvium sensors that require more power.

MIPI CSI & I2C Camera Mapping
The Allied Vision MIPI Camera board was designed based on the MIPI CSI specifications of the AGX Xavier
Jetson module. The system can support 4 quad lane cameras, 4 dual lane cameras with 2 quad lane
cameras, and 6 dual lane cameras as per the AGX Xavier Jetson module.
The CSI configurations are in MIPI D-PHY mode. Each data channel has peak bandwidth of up to 2.5Gbps.
Please note that maximum data rate specified may be limited by use case and memory bandwidth.
As outlined in the block diagram, the following table below shows the multiplexed I2C signals and CSI
signals from the camera expansion connector for each camera.

Internal GPIO Properties
Please reference our GPIO KDB for how to use the software Linux SYSFS GPIO pins as well as the outlined
sample code on the site. The J1 jumper must be OFF for use of internal GPIOs. The jumper overrides the
external GPIOs for use of internal GPIOs. Internal and external GPIOs from the Allied Vision MIPI camera
board cannot be used simultaneously. The Rogue/ Rogue-X carrier also supports four additional 3.3V
GPIOs if more GPIOs are ever needed with the integrated setup.

For triggering cameras, please refer to Allied Vision Example Hardware Trigger Sample code. Sample code uses camera GPIOs to trigger
and can be controlled using either internal and external GPIOs. Default trigger activation is rising edge and can be altered to specification.

This includes CUDA, CUDA-X AI, Computer Vision, Multimedia and other Developer Tools
Installation of the Allied Vision MIPI CSI Camera Adapter with AGX Carrier
1. Ensure all external system power supplies are off
2. Install JCB005 onto the AGX Carrier’s MIPI CSI Camera Expansion Connector
3. Install 3x 8mm M2.5 screws provided with the hardware kit
4. Ensure S1 is set to the correct MIPI CSI Lane configuration for the cameras connected
5. Optional Step: Connect an external 12V DC power supply to J3
External power connector provides unregulated power to the cameras
6. Switch ON the Power Supply. DO NOT power up your system by plugging in live power.
Installation of Allied Vision Sensors

Streaming of Allied Vision Sensors
GStreamer is natively part of the JetPack OS. Example of a gst-launch-1.0 command:
gst-launch-1.0 v4l2src device=video0 ! video/x-raw, format=BGRx ! ximagesink
If you would like to switch between the 4CAM software configuration and the 6CAM software
configuration without reflashing your system, run the following command as a root user.
sudo cti-agx-fdt.sh

POWER CONSUMPTION
The intended use of the Allied Vision MIPI Camera board is to be integrated with a Rogue/ Rogue-X carrier.
The required input voltage range of the Rogue/ Rogue-X carrier is 12V to 19V. The carriers are designed
for input voltage range 9V to 19V. Due to the increased load requirements from the camera expansion
connector, the input voltage of the carrier must compensate.

Note:
Only camera peripherals were stressed during these tests with HDMI and USB mouse and keyboard connected. Current consumption
specifications will be similar with Rogue-X integration.
