Summary

Drop the "or two 2-lane MIPI CSI" wording in the Cubie A7Z MIPI CSI page so the docs match the actual hardware.

Background

The previous text claimed the board supports 1x 4-lane or 2x 2-lane MIPI CSI. Reviewing radxa_Cubie_A7Z_v1100_schematic.pdf (page 10, CAMERA) showed that the camera FPC connector J5 (CAM_31P) only brings out one MIPI clock lane (pin 17/18, net MCSIB-CKN/CKP). The second clock position (pin 8/9, MIPI_CLKBN/BP) is marked NC. With only one MIPI clock on the connector, the 4 data lanes cannot be split into two independent 2-lane cameras.

Changes

  • docs/cubie/a7z/hardware-use/mipi-csi.md (zh)
  • i18n/en/docusaurus-plugin-content-docs/current/cubie/a7z/hardware-use/mipi-csi.md (en)

Both now read "1 个 4 通道 MIPI CSI 接口" / "one 4-lane MIPI CSI interface".

Scope

docs-only, two files, one sentence per file. No code, no image, no schema change.

Checklist

  • 中英文同步
  • python3 scripts/github_pr_guard.py check ok
  • PR base = upstream-docs/main (radxa-docs/docs)

The previous text claimed the board supported '1x 4-lane or 2x 2-lane'
MIPI CSI, but the v1.10 schematic only brings out one MIPI clock lane
(J5 CAM_31P pin 17/18) on the camera FPC connector; the second clock
position (pin 8/9) is NC. Drop the 2x 2-lane claim so the docs match
the actual hardware.
…E spec table

Same fix as the previous commit on the dedicated MIPI CSI page: the
A7Z only exposes one MIPI clock lane on the camera FPC (J5 pin 17/18),
so the 4 data lanes cannot be split into two independent 2-lane cameras.
Remove the split claim from the A7Z README spec table to match.

Same correction as the A7Z docs in PR #1898. The v1.10 schematic
(page 11, CAMERA) shows that connector J7 (CAM_31P) only brings out
one MIPI clock lane (pin 18/19, net MCSIB-CKN/CKP). The second clock
position (pin 9/10, MIPI_CLKBN/BP) is NC. With only one MIPI clock on
the connector, the 4 data lanes cannot be split into two independent
2-lane cameras. Remove the split claim from the spec table and the
MIPI CSI page so the docs match the hardware.
