AM62A7: AM62A7 VPAC input CMOS sensor format

Hi GR,

GR said:

If VPAC using as ISP, only MIPI CSI2 output camera sensor can imput?

VPAC can read its input from DDR.

GR said:

Do you have list of CMOS sensor (not camera module) that AM62A can input?

AM62A VPAC can support any 2x2 color patterns such as RGGB/RCCG and 4x4 RGBIR sensor format.

You may take a look at a list of camera modules here

GR said:

Do you have VPAC demo movie in backlit environment, ultra-low light (about 0.001 lux) environment?

I don't think we have this.

I guess 0.001 lux would require special sensor exposure settings or IR illumination.

What type of applications do you have?

GR said:

Is this mean ALL peripheral that can accessed by main domain CPU core or DMA have capacity of Camera data input?

As long as you can get raw image into DDR, VPAC can process it.

GR said:

Application is surveillance camera.

Thanks for the confirmation!
I will leave this for apps team for further comments.

GR said:

Do you have plan of demo movie or anything to demo of ISP?

We don't have any demo for surveillance.
The main application area I have worked on is automotive.

You may check the release notes for the camera module we can support in SDK.
Most of them are for ADAS or driver monitoring.
