Camera Interface

Hi

Is there anyone who knows if Nordic has SoC`s with Camera Interface ,the Camera is CMOS parallel  data rate 20 - 27MHz

Thanks

  • Hmm, 
    At 27MHz you'll have 128/27 = 4 clock cycles to find the next state of the pins and update the GPIO register. That's not feasible. 

    You'll probably need a minimum of 20 clock cycles of a fully optimized code to bit-bang such an interface, so that's at least a ~20*27MHz = ~540MHz CPU. And that's given that the internal memory bus and GPIO peripheral are fast enough. 

    You're probably better off looking for a dedicated interface IC.
