DRA726: DS90UB954 EVM to TDA2E EVM (DRA726) via CSI2

Part Number: DRA726
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TDA2E, DS90UB954-Q1, DS90UB953-Q1, TDA3XEVM

Hi,

I want to contact the CSI2 output of DS90UB954-Q1 EVM to the CSI2 input of J6ECO/TDA2E EVM for display on a monitor connected to the HDMI port.

The deserialiser DS90UB954-Q1 EVM is mated with the serialiser DS90UB953-Q1 EVM.  The serialiser has a sensor daughtercard which the serialiser user guide states to be an OVT10460.

I think this may be a misprint and it should be OV10640.

It isn't obvious from the App Image what settings I should select to make this connection.  Can you help clarify?

Thanks

Paul

  • Hi Paul,

    OV10640 based UB953 is not supported on TDA2Ex.

  • Hi Brijesh,

    The OV10640 is supplied as a daughter card with the DS90UB953 EVM. I have it configured as part of my DS90UB953 EVM and DS90UB954 setup. This allows me to output a CSI-2 data stream. I am connecting this directly to the CSI-2 port of the TDA2Ex EVM using the mate connector on the DS90UB954 EVM. I would then like to switch this input to the HDMI output for observation on a suitable monitor.

    Do you mean that this configuration can not be supported with my TDA2Ex EVM? If so, what is reason?

    Thanks

  • Hi Paul,

    Can you check if the camera board has only OV10640 or OV10640 + OV490?

    This is because OV10640 outputs only RAW data and there is no HW module in TDA2Ex to convert it into YUV.

  • Hi Brijesh,

    Thanks for the clarification. Do you know if there is a software module available to perform the conversion?

    Or if that is not an option do you know if the DRA78x-15X15 EVM has the hardware module to do the required conversion?

    Thanks

  • Paul,

    There is no SW module to convert RAW to YUV. There is an HW ISP module to do this, but it is supported on TDA3x and TDA2Px SoC.

  • Hi Brijesh,

    Can you confirm that the desired result from the setup described in my May 9 post above will be achieved if I connect to EVMTDA3G-02-40-00 – TDA3XEVM Evaluation Module.  This is the one on the TI website and noted as available from Spectrum Digital.

    Thanks

    Paul

  • Hi Paul,

    As Brijesh mentioned, we don't support this combination of OV10640+UB953 -> UB954 + TDA2Ex. Having said that, we have tested and support
    1. OV10640 + UB913 -> UB964 + TDA3x/TDA2Px
    2. UB954 + TDA2Ex/TDA3x/TDA2Px is tested
    3. IMX390 + UB953 -> UB960 + TDA2Px

    In short you will have to add support to configure UB953 & UB954. Configuration for OV10640 is available and can be processed on TDA3x (TI AEWB)
