Connect OV5640 Camera Module to Sabre Board.

admin — Tue, 15 May 2012 16:42:54 GMT

Hi all,

I want to connect an OV5640 Camera Module to the Sabre Board. The current camera module in Sabre is OV4642. It is similar to OV5640. there are both ov5640.c and ov5642.c in the kernel_imx/drivers/media/video/mxc/capture folder.

Can anyone tell me how to config the Sabre board and make OV5640 work, instead of OV5640.

Thanks all.

Did you succeed in configuring kernel for ov5640 ?

We are trying to do the same thing without success.

Can someone please help me with this by providing some hints?

Thank you

Are you using MX6 SabreSD board? By using default image, you jus need to put OV5640 camera sensor into MIPI port.

Besides configuration, you should check arch/arm/mach-mx6/board-mx6q_sabresd.c.

For example:

{

I2C_BOARD_INFO("ov5642", 0x3c),

.platform_data = (void *)&camera_data,

{

I2C_BOARD_INFO("ov5640_mipi", 0x3c),

.platform_data = (void *)&mipi_csi2_data,

....

One information is FYI:

The cameras on the boards come from Omnivision (Ordering Number: OV05640-MRFL-AA0T) and can be ordered through distributor Nu Horizons for example (see http://www.nuhorizons.com/).
