AM5728: Does AM571x/AM572x/AM574x officially support 5 MP camera sensors?

Part Number: AM5728

Hi TI Team,

I am working with the AM5728 using Processor SDK Linux and would like to understand the official camera resolution support for the AM571x, AM572x, and AM574x family.

Some TI SDK documentation and examples appear to focus on 2 MP image sensors, while I have seen references suggesting that higher-resolution sensors may also be usable.

Could you please clarify:

  1. Do the AM571x, AM572x, and AM574x SoCs officially support 5 MP (2592 × 1944) camera sensors?
  2. If yes, is this support available through the VIP/ISS/CSI-2 capture pipeline, and are there any hardware or software limitations (e.g., frame rate, interface bandwidth, ISP, or SDK support)?
  3. If not, is there an official TI document that specifies the maximum supported camera resolution for these SoCs?

If possible, could you also provide the relevant datasheet, TRM, or Processor SDK documentation reference?

Thank you.

  • Shiv,

    Please see previous answer:

     AM5728: Maximum camera resolution support in AM5728 

    1, No, theoretically the HW could potentially support this but it was never tested - therefore no official SDK support exists.

    2. See the above thread and response to 1.

    3. Please review the TRM as the official TI document. 

    • The AM572x Technical Reference Manual (TRM) — Chapter on CAL (Camera Adaptation Layer) specifies the CSI-2 receiver capabilities and maximum data rates per lane.
    • The Processor SDK Linux documentation on VIP and CAL capture drivers describes the V4L2/media controller framework for configuring camera pipelines.
    • Check the Data sheets for interface availability on different AM57x devices.

    See this quick comparison based on the Datasheets:
