    Connector. The CLK, FS and DO signals are required while the DI is optional. The HiKey960 Development Board implements a I2S interface with 4 wires, CLK, FS, DO and DI. The signals are connected directly to the Kirin960 SoC and driven at 1.8V.
  • Page 15 A minimum of one lane is required and up to four lanes can be accommodated on the connector. The Hikey960 Development Board implementation supports a full four lane (1.2Gbps/lane) MIPI-DSI interface that is routed to the High Speed Expansion Connector. The MIPI-DSI signals are directly connected to DSI-0 of Kirin960.
  • Page 16 ExpansionConnector. Both interfaces are optional. CSI0 interface can be up to four lanes while CSI1 is up to twolanes. The Hikey960 Development Board implementation supports a full four lane MIPI-CSI interface on CSI0 and two lanes of MIPI-CSI on CSI1. All MIPI-CSI signals are routed directly to/from the Kirin960 SoC.
