| The MIPI DSI (Mobile Industry Platform Alliance Display Serial Interface) is the current industry standard for interfacing most smartphone LCDs to the device's CPU/GPU. MIPI is a consortium of mobile (and other) hardware vendors that standardized interfaces of many handset internals (for example CSI for camera modules). | The MIPI DSI (Mobile Industry Platform Alliance Display Serial Interface) is the current industry standard for interfacing most smartphone LCDs to the device's CPU/GPU.

| The bad news is, MIPI's specifications are available after signing and NDA and paying a small fee. The good one is, that there's enough bits of information available in the Web to put together a working DSI host. Here's some links: | The bad news is, MIPI's specifications are available after signing and NDA and paying a fee.
