VGA Camera Sensor PICtail™ Plus Daughter Board
Information Sheet
Thank you for purchasing a VGA Camera Sensor PICtail Plus Daughter Board. This
information sheet provides some important details that will help you successfully use
the board as quickly as possible.
Additional information can be accessed at: http://www.microchip.com
Basic Requirements
The VGA Camera Sensor PICtail Plus Daughter Board was designed to work with a
PICtail™ Plus connector. This connector can be found on many boards including
the Explorer 16 Development Board (DM240001) and the Starter Kit I/O Expansion
Board (DM320002).
The VGA Camera Sensor PICtail Plus Daughter Board uses an OmniVision
Technologies CameraCubeChip™ to receive digital video images. These images are
then controlled by the microcontroller via I/O ports. Depending on the desired use,
there are eight DATAx jumpers on the daughter board that can be used to switch
between I/O lines. There is another jumper (J10) that can be used to switch
between using an external clock source or the microcontroller as a clock source for
the OmniVision Technologies CameraCubeChip™.
Getting Started
To get started with the VGA Camera Sensor PICtail Plus Daughter Board, follow these
steps:
1. Ensure that MPLAB
®
IDE is installed.
2. Download a project file for the daughter board from the Microchip web site.
3. Power the daughter board.
4. Connect a debugger/programmer.
5. Using MPLAB IDE, open the project that was previously downloaded.
6. Select a debugger/programmer in MPLAB IDE.
7. Click Build. This builds the downloaded project.
8. Click Program all memories.
9. Click Run.
Your VGA Camera Sensor PICtail Plus Daughter Board should now be up and
running. To begin viewing the camera sensor image, either online or on an LCD,
follow the guide that accompanies the chosen demonstration.
