C6657 Video Input?

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TMS320C6657

We just bought one TMDXEVM6657LE and plan to use C6657 to develop HD (1080P) Network Camera. We plan to use Aptina AR0331 image sensor. Is there any direct way between the Aptina AR0331's outout  and C6657's input? Is there any recommended way to implement the connection if there isn't?

Thanks in advanced for your advice or help.

Regards,

Harley

    Harley,

    I'm not familiar with the Aptina Image Sensor.  Have you looked at the Data Sheet for the TMS320C6657 device to see if they have any interfaces in common?  I'd guess that you'd need a rather higher speed interface for the raw HD content.  There's PCIe x2, 1GbE (SGMII), SRIO x4, and HyperLink that are the higher speed interfaces going from 1Gb to 40Gbaud data rates. 

    You may also want to consider some of the DM6x and DM8x devices as they tend to be more targeted for this market.

    Best Regards,

    Chad

    Chad,

    Thanks for the prompt reply. We will verify whether the Aptina AR0331 output can connect to C6657 interfaces you mentioned.

    Hi, Harley:

          I ran into the same problem too. I want to use C6657 to deal video and just don't know how to get start. And I am wondering could you please to notify me after you connect the image sensor with C6657 successfully. 

          Thanks very much.

          Alex.
