m →Physical Layer (L1): Move the D and M Phy table to the end of the L1 section. Was between D and M subsections. |
m →D-PHY: added comment about using D-PHY below 500 Mbps -> less power efficient |

===D-PHY===
Versions 1.0 and 1.1 of UniPro use MIPI's D-PHY technology for the off-chip Physical Layer. This PHY allows inter-chip communication over printed circuit board traces as well over roughly 20 cm of cabling. Data rates of the D-PHY are variable, but are in the order of 500-1000 Mbit/s (
The [[D-PHY]]<ref>[https://members.mipi.org/mipi-adopters/file/Specifications/Board%20Approved/MIPI%20D-PHY%20Specification_v00-90-00_final_11152007132023.pdf MIPI D-PHY 0.90 specification],requires an account at the MIPI website</ref> uses differential signaling to convey PHY symbols over micro-stripline wiring. A second differential signal is used to transmit the associated clock signal from the source to the destination. The D-PHY technology thus uses a total of 4 signal wires per direction. Traffic and return traffic are totally independent at this protocol level.
