Contents
Overview
The X1300 HDMI to CSI-2 bridge with I2S audio interface has been specifically designed for the Raspberry Pi 5. It features the Toshiba TC358743XBG bridge chip, supporting HDMI input up to 1080P at a refresh rate of 60 fps.
PS:
If you need the same kind of product used on the Raspberry Pi 4, please refer to the X630
Geekworm HDMI to CSI Module Series:
Convert HDMI signal acquisition into CSI signal and I2S audio signal. The maximum capture resolution depends on the HDMI to CSI converter board as well as the Raspberry Pi hardware.
Raspberry Pi hardware are primarily divided into two series, one supporting a maximum of 1080P60Hz and the other supporting a maximum of 1080P50Hz.
- Raspberry Pi versions that support up to 1080P60Hz: CM3, CM4, Pi 5B
- Raspberry Pi versions that support up to 1080P50Hz: zero, zero2, Pi3B, Pi4B, etc.

Applications
Here are some applications of HDMI to CSI (Camera Serial Interface) conversion:
1. Digital Media Adapters: HDMI to CSI adapters allow HDMI cameras to be used just like standard Raspberry Pi CSI cameras. This is useful for digital media adapters that need to process HDMI input.
2. Smart Monitors: Smart monitors can benefit from HDMI to CSI conversion, enabling them to accept HDMI video streams and integrate them into their display systems.
3. Set-Top Boxes (STBs): STBs often require video input from various sources. HDMI to CSI conversion allows STBs to handle HDMI signals efficiently.
4. Smart TVs: Some smart TVs may need to process HDMI input for features like picture-in-picture or video conferencing. HDMI to CSI bridges facilitate this integration.
5. Entertainment Screens: Whether it's for gaming consoles, streaming devices, or other entertainment systems, HDMI to CSI conversion ensures compatibility with HDMI sources.
6. KVM over IP: IP-KVM (Keyboard, Video, Mouse over IP) solutions using a Raspberry Pi, This bridge allows you to capture full HD video with low latency and supports H.264 video encoding of your desktop.
Remember that HDMI to CSI adapters are particularly useful when interfacing HDMI cameras with Raspberry Pi boards. They provide a seamless way to incorporate HDMI video streams into various applications.
