AM625: processor camera capabilities

Part Number: AM625

Hello TI Team,

We are looking on AM62XX processor camera capabilities. we found that it is supporting the One Camera Serial interface (CSI-Rx). however, it is not clear what are the max resolution and frame rate capabilities of AM62XX processor.

1. Can you please let me know in AM62XX processor what would be the frame rate support at 1080p resolution?

2. what are the max resolution support by the AM62XX processor? at which frame rate?

3. What are the max frame rate support by the AM62XX processor? at which resolution?

 

let me know if you have any queries.

  • Hello Vaibhav,

    The CSI RX IP on the AM62x can support data rate up to 10Gbps. Please refer to the Technical Reference Manual, section 12.6.1.1.1 CSI_RX_IF Features:

    • Data rate up to 2.5 Gbps per lane (wire rate)
    • Supports 1, 2, 3, or 4 Data Lane connection to DPHY_RX

    The maximum frame rate and resolution that can be supported depends on a few other factors:

    • Camera output format. Please note that the AM62x doesn't have ISP, so you probably want to use a camera with built-in ISP and output YUV data. 
    • Available DDR bandwidth. The AM62x has 16-bit 1600MT/s DDR. The DDR bandwidth available for camera depends on your system load.

    With all these factors being considered, a typical use case can probably get at best 2MP resolution at 30-60FPS.

  • Dear Jainzhong,

    Can you please let us know which camera module TI is using with AM62x starter kit (evaluation module)? if possible then please share all the available details of the camera module with me. 

    Also let me know at what resolution and frame rate camera module is tested with AM62x starter kit (evaluation module)?

  • Hello Vaibhav,

    We have tested the OV5640 camera with Raspberry Pi connector: https://www.digikey.com/short/w3h4dq37.
