Abstract:
1. An imaging apparatus comprising: a first link interface to receive a control signal associated with a video stream, identify control data based on a duty cycle of the control signal, and configure the video stream based on the control data, the first link interface providing a low-speed connection, wherein the control data includes one or more message portions that have been pulse width modulated to incorporate a message into the control signal to enable the end of the message to be identified in an isochronous manner; and a second link interface to transmit the video stream based on a frequency of the control signal including the one or more message portions, the second link interface providing a high-speed connection, wherein the first link interface and the second link interface form an asymmetric link, and synchronous operation of the video stream is maintained so that frames of the video stream may be displayed by a host or other receiving device at the same rate as a capture rate of the image.
