cmos camera on TI USB controller

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TUSB6250

Hi, 

I need to interface a cmos based camera to a USB 2.0 host module.

Currently, the camera gives 8 bit parallel data output. There are also control lines (VSYNC, HSYNC, PCLK) and I2C configuration lines available on the camera module. 

The camera gives a resolution of 640x480, and frame rate of 25 frames per second. Hence the total data comes to about 7.3MBytes per second. 

The USB 2.0 HS supports upto 480Mbps, which I think should be enough for taking  the data from the sensor. 

Can you please suggest me a controller which I can use for this interface ? Can I use TUSB6250 for this purpose ? 

Thank You

With Regards

GIGIN JOSE

  • The TUSB6250 is intended to connect to ATA hard drives and really only that.  It does not have the proper interface to connect to a CMOS imager.

    Devices that have the interfaces you needed are ARM microprocessors, like the AM180x.  There are others like it but the AM180x is a good representation of what would be needed.
