Camera Mode: 
 
In Camera mode, I2C transactions originate from the Master controller at the Deserializer 
side. The I2C slave core in the Deserializer will detect if a transaction is intended for the 
Serializer or a slave at the Serializer. Commands are sent over the bi-directional control 
channel to initiate the transactions. The Serializer will receive the command and generate 
an I2C transaction on its local I2C bus. At the same time, the Serializer will capture the 
response on the I2C bus and return the response on the forward channel link. The 
Deserializer parses the response and passes the appropriate response to the Deserializer 
I2C bus. 
 
Note:
 The default settings for this EVK are shipped with a display mode configuration, but 
this EVK also supports a camera mode. This mode is suitable for setups where a camera 
is connected to the DS90UB903Q Serializer end and a host controller is connected to the 
DS90UB904Q Deserializer end. The I2C Master would need to be connected to the 
DS90UB904Q Deserializer end. A typical setup for camera mode is shown below:
