TDA4AL-Q1: Camera Bring up- CSI driver -linux

Prashant Solanki

Part Number: TDA4AL-Q1

Tool/software: www.ti.com/.../PROCESSOR-SDK-J721S2

www.ti.com/.../PROCESSOR-SDK-AM68A

I want to use TDA4AL to bring up the camera with camera sensor. We need to capture the RAW data and be able to store it in files .

1. With respect to TDA4AL and above SDK Is raw data capture supported?
2. Can you share what are the formats TI is supporting in the existing TI driver? Or how can I check that myself in the existing TI driver.
3. And the TI driver side CSI2, what are the formats they are already supporting

we are doing this, Can you provide the relevant driver and sample code?
any references related to above are welcome

Hi Prashant,

Apologies for the delay in response as I was out of office the past week. Could you share which sensor you are interested in enabling?

Yes, raw data capture is supported. I recommend taking a look at the following pages from our Linux SDK for full details on our support offering:

Thank you,

Hi Fabiana

I am working on Omnivision OX05B1S.
Also I am looking for a sample camera application, if there is one to use with the drivers.

Hi Prashant,

That sensor is not included in our list of supported sensors so you will need to bring this sensor up yourself. Our Linux camera applications are GStreamer based and linked below. Here are a few resources you can take a look at to guide you. Please let me know if you have any further questions.

Is there any v4l2 camera application which can be used to that can be linked.

Hi Prashant,

We do not have any TI specific v4l2 camera application. Here is a good example from the Linux Kernel documentation: 11.1. file: media/v4l/capture.c — The Linux Kernel documentation

Thanks,

Fabiana
