Hi, all
I saw the table of the maximum packet size based on the camera speed:
Camera Speed | Maximum cumulative packet size |
---|---|
100 Mbps | 1024 bytes |
200 Mbps | 2048 bytes |
400 Mbps | 4096 bytes |
800 Mbps* | 8192 bytes |
I'm not clear with the calculation. If the camera speed is 100Mbps and the bus is divided into 125um cycles, one cycle is supposed to transfer 125um * 100Mbps = 1562 bytes data. Why the maximum packet size is limited to 1024 bytes? Does it mean the rest are occupied by other tasks, not only for data transfer? If so, the real bandwidth for data transfer is only about 70% bus and it's a great limit to my setup, 'coz I'm trying to plug 6 cameras in one PC with resolution 1624*1236 and frame rate 5fps set.
Thanks,
Olivia

OK, I'm clear now. Thank you very much!
