Unable to ap1302 firmware on default image for FRDM im93 board when trying to use RPI_CAM

[Aditya_Vashista]

I am trying to run the demos on NXP Go point which comes pre-installed in the FRDM imx-93 development board. For that i have downloaded the ap1302 firmware from ONSEMI github repo 9as mentioned in Board User Manual Rev. 1.0. I have renamed and placed the firmware file in /lib/firmware/imx/camera/ path as well.  When connecting RPI-CAM-MIPI, i am not able to interface with the camera and getting no feed when trying to run GoPoint demos for video test or object classification.

I have tried using all 3 firmwares, available on ONSEMI github link in UM, but getting the same results. 

Output of $dmesg | grep ap1302, is attached as image.

Hi @Aditya_Vashista 

Have you resolved this issue? I am also working on the same board and facing the same problem.

Hi @Aditya_Vashista!

Thank you for contacting NXP Support!

You should download the "ap1302_60fps_ar0144_27M_2Lane_awb_tuning.bin" file from the ON Semiconductor github page, rename the file to "ap1302.fw" and save the file in  "/lib/firmware/imx/camera/"

After that you have to reboot your board and corroborate that the camera is working with the next command:

$ gst-launch-1.0 -v v4l2src device=/dev/video0 ! "video/x-raw,format=YUY2,width=1280,height=800" ! queue ! waylandsink

I have tried those steps by my side and is working  without problems.

Best Regards!
