AGX Orin MIPI CSI-2 Bridge Board — LVDS, HDMI & Dual MIPI
Overview
AGX Orin MIPI CSI-2 Bridge Board — 1 × LVDS, 1 × HDMI, 2 × Native MIPI CSI-2
P/No: FC-AGX-LHMM
Connect four cameras to one NVIDIA Jetson AGX Orin — at the same time. The board integrates LVDS–MIPI CSI-2, HDMI–MIPI CSI-2 and two native MIPI CSI-2 interfaces on a single board, fully utilizing all four 4-lane MIPI CSI-2 interfaces on the NVIDIA Jetson AGX Orin.
Ideal for: multi-sensor embedded vision systems, UAV and defense payloads, and industrial camera integration projects requiring flexible support for LVDS, HDMI and two native MIPI camera sources on a single Jetson AGX Orin platform.

Product Description
A single-board camera integration platform built for the NVIDIA Jetson AGX Orin, engineered to bring every major camera interface — LVDS, HDMI and two native MIPI CSI-2 — onto one design, making full use of all four 4-lane MIPI CSI-2 interfaces the AGX Orin has to offer.
At its core, the board bridges LVDS and HDMI camera video output into 4-lane MIPI CSI-2, giving system integrators a direct path to connect industry-standard block cameras without custom bridging hardware of their own. Each of these interfaces has a dedicated I²C-to-UART bridge (3.3V CMOS) for VISCA control, with an onboard UART connector available for external camera control when needed. Rounding out the interface set, two native 22-pin, 4-lane MIPI CSI-2 pass-through connectors support direct integration of MIPI sensors, for applications that don't need format conversion at all.
Built for demanding environments, the board runs on a wide-range 12–24V DC input, with reverse-voltage and transient-voltage protection guarding against field power faults, and power-status LEDs for at-a-glance diagnostics. Its compact 84.87 mm × 61.95 mm footprint and 33.4g weight suit space-constrained embedded enclosures, while a –20°C to +85°C operating range and RoHS compliance support deployment across industrial, defense, and outdoor vision systems.
Functional Description
Each of the four camera inputs is mapped to its own 4-lane MIPI CSI-2 output. All four outputs are carried to the Jetson AGX Orin over the 120-pin MIPI CSI-2 camera expansion connector J11.
| Port | Connector | Input | Output |
|---|---|---|---|
| Port 1 | J7 — LVDS_CAM | LVDS (Single mode), 30-pin KEL micro-coax | 4-lane MIPI CSI-2 |
| Port 2 | J3 — HDMI_CAM | HDMI, 30-pin KEL micro-coax | 4-lane MIPI CSI-2 |
| Port 3 | J4 — MIPI_CAM0 | Native MIPI CSI-2, 22-pin FPC | 4-lane MIPI CSI-2 (pass-through) |
| Port 4 | J6 — MIPI_CAM1 | Native MIPI CSI-2, 22-pin FPC | 4-lane MIPI CSI-2 (pass-through) |
Camera control for the LVDS and HDMI cameras is implemented through independent onboard I²C-to-UART bridges, enabling VISCA control directly from the host processor without additional hardware. The native MIPI ports expose I²C to the attached sensor through the board's I²C multiplexers.
