Chapter 1
SNLU177–July 2016
DS90UB96X-Q1EVM User's Guide
1.1 General Description
The Texas Instruments DS90UB96X-Q1EVM evaluation module (EVM) is a functional board design for
evaluating the FPD-Link III Deserializer to MIPI CSI-2 ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance Systems) Hub.
This kit will demonstrate the functionality and operation of the DS90UB96X-Q1 family of chipsets. The
information provided in this document can be applied to devices such as DS90UB964-Q1. This EVM can
also be used as a hardware reference design for any implementation of the DS90UB96X-Q1 series. Some
portions and components in the EVM or in this document may include the references to DS90UB964-Q1
instead of addressing all part numbers. For the purposes of this document, the DS90UB964-Q1 is
interchangeable with the DS90UB96X-Q1.
The DS90UB96X-Q1 is a versatile camera hub capable of connecting serialized camera data received
from up to 4 independent video datastreams via an FPD-Link III interface using standard coaxial cables.
When coupled with DS90UB913A/913Q serializers, the DS90UB964-Q1 receives data from 1-Megapixel
imagers supporting HD 720p/800p/960p resolution at 30/60Hz frame rates. The DS90UB96X-Q1 merges
and manages multiple data streams into a MIPI CSI-2 compliant output for interconnect to a downstream
processor.
The EVM is a development add-on module to add surround view capability to any of a variety of video
processor systems such as the TI TDA3x ADAS Processor, or an Applications Processor, Image Signal
Processor (ISP), and SOC. The system consists of four cameras each of which receives control
information and power through FAKRA coaxial cables, and uses the same cable to return the video
information to an EVM board. Each of the FPD-Link III interfaces also includes a separate low latency bi-
directional control channel that conveys control information from an I2C port. General purpose I/O signals
such as those required for camera synchronization and functional safety features also make use of this bi-
directional control channel.
NOTE: The demo board is not intended for EMI testing. The demo board was designed for easy
accessibility to device pins with tap points for monitoring or applying signals, additional pads
for termination, and multiple connector options.
The Texas Instruments DS90UB96X-Q1EVM helps to evaluate the operation and performance of the
DS90UB964-Q1 and is available for order in two variants. See Table 1-1 of orderable EVM variants and
configuration.

1.8.2 Power Over Coax Interface
The DS90UB96X-Q1EVM offers four power over coax interfaces (POC) to connect cameras through a
coaxial cable with FAKRA connectors. Power is delivered on the same conductor that is used to transmit
video and control channel between the host and the camera. By default, 5V power supply is applied over
the coax cable. Refer Table 1-3 to for other POC configurations.
For power over coax (POC) on the EVM, the circuit uses a filter network as shown in Figure 1-4. The POC
network frequency response corresponds to the bandwidth compatible with DS90UB913A chipsets.
Figure 1-4. Power Over Coax Network
WARNING
Verify that the power voltage is properly set before plugging into
CN1, CN2, CN3, CN4. Power supply is not fused. Overvoltage will
cause damage to boards directly connected due to incorrect input
power supplies.

1.8.3 MIPI CSI-2 Output Signals
Provided on the DS90UB96X-Q1EVM, J6 and J7 are Samtec QSH-type connectors that can be mated
with a matching QTH type connector on the top. This Samtec connector provides a means to route CSI-2
signals out of the DS90UB96X-Q1. The J6 and J7 corresponds to CSI0 Port and CSI1 Port output
connection signals respectively, and includes access to I2C and other miscellaneous GPIO signals. Zero
ohm resistor pads are available if a connection to other signals is required. The mating connector part
number is QTH-020-01-H-D-DP-A.
There are third party solutions like the HDR-128291-XX breakout board from Samtec which can be used.
The HDR- 128291-XX is a breakout board with a mating connector to J6 & J7 and standard SMA male
connectors. More info on this breakout board can be obtained from Samtec website. Another third party
option is the ZX100 by Zebax Technologies. More information on this board can be obtained from Zebax
website.
