Applications

Description

The VS6555 is an ultra small reflowable VGA

camera module for use across a range of mobile

phone handsets and accessories. It is primarily

designed to be used as a secondary camera for

video conferencing applications, but could equally

be used as a primary camera. The camera silicon

device is SMIA class 0 profile 0 compliant and is

capable of generating raw bayer VGA images up

to 30 fps. The VS6555 supports the CCI control

and CCP2.0 data interfaces

As different phone platforms have different

baseband processors with varying capabilities, it

may not be possible for all phones to support the

associated image processing algorithms. Where

the baseband cannot support this processing

load, a separate hardware accelerator (STV0984

or STV0986) device can be incorporated in the

phone system to run the algorithms in hardware.

The STV0984 and STV0986 processors can

support 2 cameras.

The module design is optimized to provide an ultra

small footprint and height, and is designed to be

reflowable at lead-free solder profiles. The product

is lead free.

The lens design is optimized for video

conferencing and maintains its performance even

after the high temperatures of lead-free reflow.

VS6555 offers an ultra low power consumption

hardware standby mode consuming less than

30 µW.
