Revision as of 14:29, 14 March 2021
This example uses Raspberry Pi Camera Rev 1.3 (build on OV5647 MIPI sensor) as a test device for CSI Interface. On this page OV5647 sensor integration, settings and usage on i.MX6 processors are shown.
Note: There is an issue concerning Raspberry Pi 1.3 cameras and its I2C detected. There might be some models that does not get identified.

GPIO control
GPIO pins are controlled by the camera driver and access to these pins is blocked. Power on signal is recognised as GPIO 74, LED GPIO has number 54.
LED located on camera module can be tested by temporarily disabling mipi kernel module and toggling corresponding GPIO pin:
root@imx6s-tinyrex:~# modprobe -r ov5647_camera_mipi root@imx6s-tinyrex:~# echo 54 > /sys/class/gpio/export root@imx6s-tinyrex:~# echo out > /sys/class/gpio/gpio54/direction root@imx6s-tinyrex:~# echo 1 > /sys/class/gpio/gpio54/value root@imx6s-tinyrex:~# echo 0 > /sys/class/gpio/gpio54/value root@imx6s-tinyrex:~# echo 54 > /sys/class/gpio/unexport root@imx6s-tinyrex:~# modprobe ov5647_camera_mipi
