Linux device driver for OnSemi AR0230CS camera sensor

asharma — Thu, 08 Dec 2016 11:17:13 GMT

Hi All,

We are trying to connect camera sensor OnSemi AR0230CS (ON Semiconductor) to Boundary devices BD-SL-I.MX6 (i.MX6 ARM Development Board) on parallel interface.

The problem is that there is no Linux driver for this sensor, So I guess we have to write a new one.

It would be helpful, if you could point me from where I can start and a reference camera device driver which I can refer to write driver for AR0230CS.

Thank you in advance.

Hi Igor,

Thanks for your reply.

Provided links and pdf are helpful.

Do you also have a programming manual for camera driver for i.MX6s, as camera drivers written for freescale look different from general camera drivers.

Thanks.

Abhishek
