Connecting B-CAMS-IMX with Stm32n657x0-Q

Hello,

We would like to know if it is possible to connect the STM32N657X0-Q board with a B-CAMS-IMX camera. If so, what would be the best way to verify that the connection is successful and that the camera is working properly?

Any guidance or documentation references would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

Hello,

You must first check the FFC connector (CN1) assignment with the STM32N657X0-Q board ( UM3354Camera module bundle for STM32 boards) and example DCMIPP_SnapshotDecimationMode.

Then you can dump a frame buffer in debug and to output it has a binary file for a post processing. The export binary file format could be performed using an usart for example.

Simon

Hello,

Thank you for your reply.

We have confirmed that the FFC connector is present on both the STM32N657X0-Q board (CN6) and the BCAMS IMX camera. How can we establish the connection between the board and the camera using STM32CubeIDE?

Best regards.

Hello,

The provided applications for DCMIPP are already available on BCAMS IMX (IMX335) for the Discovery board. They are also provided for STM32CubeIDE. As a first step to verify that the camera is correctly connected, you should try to read the camera ID. The application includes this step through the call to the function IMX335_Probe().

The main aspect you need to verify when switching from the DK to the Nucleo board is the GPIO configuration.

Applications:
