A short packet is identified by data types 0x00 to 0x0F. A short packet can be used for frame or line synchronization or for generic data. A short packet contains only a Packet Header; a Packet Footer is not be present. Figure 8-16 shows the structure of a short packet.
Figure 8-16 CSI2 Short Packet StructureCAL accepts but does not use the frame number or line numbers transmitted by the sensor as required by the MIPI CSI-2 standard.
The ECC byte allows single-bit errors to be corrected and 2-bit errors to be detected in the short packet.
Short packets apply to all contexts using the same virtual channel ID . The data type associated with the context is not used to distinguish which context is used when receiving short packets.
