Control Mode

Control mode is the default operating mode. After initialization is completed (analog calibrations), the D-PHY remains in this default mode until a request is placed. The request is placed directly through the sequence of low-power signals in the lanes. The receiver remains in Control mode while receiving Low-power (LP) Stop state (LP-11) in the lines (see the following figure).

Following a request, a lane can exit Control mode for High-speed Data Transfer mode or Escape mode.
