e-CAM32_OMAP35x – Camera for OMAP 35x Development systems Contact e-con
Microsoft Gold Partner
 

e-CAM32_OMAP35x is e-con's 3.2 Mega Pixel camera solution for hugely successful OMAP35x processors from Texas Instruments. The e-CAM32_OMAP35x is a add-on module that houses a 3.2 Megapixel camera with autofocus features along with circuitry for LED flash lighting.

The e-CAM32_OMAP35x can be directly interfaced on the TI TMDSEVM3530 EVM board. Logically, the e-CAM32_OMAP35x connects to the high speed CMOS sensor interface of the TI OMAP 35x.

  e-CAM32_OMAP35x and OMAP 35x processor
   
  The TI OMAP35x processors offer tremendous processing power thanks to the Superscalar ARM Cortex-A8 core running at 600MHz. The higher end variants of this CPU (OMAP3525 and OMAP3530) support a C64x DSP and Video accelerator making it an ideal CPU for high-end real-time image processing. All the four variants OMAP3503, OMAP3515, OMAP3525 and OMAP 3530 have the high speed camera interface exposed and hence the e-CAM32_OMAP35x can work with either of these. The e-CAM32_OMAP35x Windows CE driver closely integrates with the IVA2.2 (Image, Video and Audio Subsystem) Accelerator subsystem. This enables the application developer to fully utilize the advanced features available in the OMAP35x CPU.
   
  OMAP 353x ISP support
   
 

On the Camera ISP backend, the e-CAM32_OMAP35x camera module nicely integrates with the 8-bit parallel camera interface in SYNC mode. This interface can support up to 130MHZ for 8-bit parallel camera data. With this clock, e-con has achieved capturing of video at 30fps at D1/VGA resolution from the e-CAM32_OMAP35x camera daughter board. The e-CAM driver also supports CCDC block inside the OMAP CPU, but not much processing is done inside CCDC for YUV422 format input data.

   
  The OMAP camera driver is coupled closely with the Resizer block of the OMAP35x to support up scaling/downscaling by a factor of 4 to 0.25. A typical example of this would be that the 5mega-pixel (2560 X 1920 pixel) input image can be resized to VGA (640 x 480) size without any software overhead by programming the Resizer block through the camera driver.
   
  This feature comes really handy for real-time image processing applications where the incoming images are to be scaled and provided for image analysis. Other than this, the usual features like color correction, gamma correction, etc of the ISP are supported in the driver.
   
  Evaluation Kit
   
  The e-CAM32_OMAP35x evaluation kit can be bought by customers who have the TI OMAP EVM kit and are considering integrating camera on their product. They can evaluate the features of the camera and also build custom applications around it. Please see the kit contents on the right. Customers who have bought other development boards based on OMAP35x and would like to integrate the e-CAM32_OMAP35x on their boards can also check with e-con for support. For all enquiries please write .
