+====================================
+AMD Image Signal Processor (amdisp4)
+====================================
+
+Introduction
+============
+
+This file documents the driver for the AMD ISP4 that is part of
+AMD Ryzen AI Max 385 SoC.
+
+The driver is located under drivers/media/platform/amd/isp4 and uses
+the Media-Controller API.
+
+Topology
+========
+
+.. _amdisp4_topology_graph:
+
+.. kernel-figure:: amdisp4.dot
+     :alt:   Diagram of the media pipeline topology
+     :align: center
+
+
+
+The driver has 1 sub-device:
+
+- isp: used to resize and process bayer raw frames in to yuv.
+
+The driver has 1 video device:
+
+- capture video device: capture device for retrieving images.
+
+
+  - ISP4 Image Signal Processing Subdevice Node
+
+-----------------------------------------------
+
+The isp4 is represented as a single V4L2 subdev, the sub-device does not
+provide interface to the user space. The sub-device is connected to one video node
+(isp4_capture) with immutable active link. The isp entity is connected
+to sensor pad 0 and receives the frames using CSI-2 protocol. The sub-device is
+also responsible to configure CSI2-2 receiver.
+The sub-device processes bayer raw data from the connected sensor and output
+them to different YUV formats. The isp also has scaling capabilities.
+
+  - isp4_capture - Frames Capture Video Node
+
+--------------------------------------------
+
+Isp4_capture is a capture device to capture frames to memory.
+This entity is the DMA engine that write the frames to memory.
+The entity is connected to isp4 sub-device.
+
+Capturing Video Frames Example
+==============================
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+         # set the links
+
+         # start streaming:
+         v4l2-ctl "-d" "/dev/video0" "--set-fmt-video=width=1920,height=1080,pixelformat=NV12" "--stream-mmap" "--stream-count=10"
