DRA75P: Need direct connect CSI2 Camera Module for J6 EVM, J6+ EVEM

Hi David,

J6 does not support CSI interface, but you could connect LI based camera to LI input interface on TDA2x+ EVM.

Oh, right, I forgot that J6 did not have CSI2 and those ports I mentioned are for leopard imaging parallel output sensors. 

TDA2x+ and J6+ EVMs do have CSI2 expansion connectors (P15/J15).  Do you mean that LI has a CSI2 output camera module that mates directly to the TDA2+ EVM?

Brijesh,

According to the Processor SDK Linux Automotive Developer Guide we support the following:

Supported cameras

Camera Adapter Layer is used to capture video from CSI Camera. Currently the CAL driver supports following features. Processor SDK Linux Automotive release supports following sensors/cameras/video inputs:-

• • OV10635 sensor - YUYV sensor on Vision board
  • OV10635 sensor - YUYV sensor connected through LVDS
  • OV10633 sensor - YUYV sensor connected on J6 EVM
  • TVP5158 decoder - Support for decoding single channel analog video
  • OV10640/OV490 - 720p CSI2 raw camera connected to OV490 ISP in YUYV format

Processor SDK supports following sensors/cameras

My reply above got truncated...

The OV2775 and OV10640 are both RAW output.  We want YUV.

Do you have experience with the OV10640/OV490 combo?  Is it sold as a kit from LI?  Do we have a sample configuration which sets up basic YUV output through the ISP or would customer have to figure all that out?

Again, we were looking for a reference camera (CSI2, YUV, no SERDES) without needing to use the Vision SDK.

Thanks,

Hi David,

It is not supported on Vision SDK.  It might be supported on Linux

Let me check with the Linux team.

I checked with Leopard Imaging and they apparently do not offer a OV10640+OV490 combination with 36 pin connector to fit our EVM.  Is someone on the Linux team familiar with the configuration mentioned in the SW Dev Guide?
