can imx219 8MB be used on Tinkerboard or Tinkerboard S

Recommended Posts

Hello

Has any one used IMX219 8MP camera with Tinkerboard or Tinkerboard S hardware?

Please kindly provide me information about how to connect and use imx219 8MB camera.,

In my /boot/config.txt i haven't seen any info about how to set/activate camera on the device. There is a section for loading device tree overlays (I assume these are kind of device drivers) but could"n find any information on the internet,

Even I do not know how to activate them there are "camera-ov5647-overlay.dts" and "camera-ov5647-overlay.dtbo" files In the /boot/overlays folder .

There is no file for `imx219`, so does that mean tinkerboard and tinkerboard s do not support imx219 cameras at all? 

here is my boot config.txt:


##### Hardware Interface Config #####

## Note: fiq_debugger and uart3 use the same pin. Set fiq_debugger first while both on. ##
## Note: uart4 and spi0 are the same pins. Set the latter one while both on. ##
## Note: uart2 is the same pins to pwm2 and pwm3. Set the latter one while both on. ##

intf:fiq_debugger=on
#intf:i2c1=off
#intf:i2c4=off
#intf:spi0=off
#intf:spi2=off
#intf:pwm2=off
#intf:pwm3=off
intf:pcm_i2s=on
#intf:uart1=off
#intf:uart2=off
#intf:uart3=off
#intf:uart4=off

##### Driver Config #####

## Note: auto_ums: Auto enable ums mode while power on with USB connected. ##

conf:auto_ums=on

##### Tinker Power Management #####

cpu_governor=ondemand
a17_minfreq=126000
a17_maxfreq=1800000

gpu_governor=simple_ondemand
t76x_minfreq=200000000
t76x_maxfreq=600000000

##### List of device tree overlays to load. Format: overlay=<dtbo name, no extension> <dtbo2> ... #####

## Note: Put dtbo files under the overlays folder. ##

overlay=

 

Any help is really appreciated

hello @captain kirk

imx219 is supported on tinker board r2.0, i don't think you need to add an overlay, but if you must, try modify the last line:

overlay=CSI0-IMX219

save and then reboot

 

to test and see if the camera works:

gst-launch-1.0 v4l2src device=/dev/video0 ! video/x-raw,format=NV12,width=640,height=480 ! videoconvert ! autovideosink

reference: Tinker Board (asus.com)
