esp32 with camera and tft display ov7670 fifo free sample
Previously I was unable to capture 320x240x2-byte frames due to memory limitations on the ESP32. But the LCD has its own frame-buffer memory sufficient for this task.
So when we take a snapshot, we detach the camera from the data bus and allow the ESP32 to read back the image data from the LCD framebuffer in useful sized chunks.
The ESP32 can then send the data chunk-by-chunk to a host PC over a serial interface, or perhaps store a file in the SPIFFS file system, or on a Micro SD card.
Because the eight camera data lines no longer come into the ESP32, I free up enough GPIO pins for some extra control signals, reading the touch screen, and having a second serial port to transmit the image to a host PC.
The "common bus" shared between three devices - the camera, the ESP32, and the LCD, requires that we are able to detach the camera data or the ESP32 data from the bus. So the ESP32 takes on the role of bus controller.
To achieve this I added two common ICs to the design: a 74LS244N bus line driver sits between the camera data lines and the LCD bus lines. It allows me to tri-state the 8 camera data lines (put the output pins into high impedance so that the ESP32 / LCD can use the bus without interference).
The 74LS244N driver only has 8 lines, I needed a 9th one for the pixel clock (PCLK). When the camera data is flowing onto the bus, we need its pixel clock (PCLK) to also be routed to the LCD_WR clock line on the LCD. But when the ESP32 is using the shared bus, it needs control of the LCD_WR line. I implemented a 2-input A/B multiplexor to route either PCLK or a GPIO line to LCD_WR using a single 74LS00N chip. The 74LS00N contains four 2-input NAND gates, enough logic to build a multiplexor for 2 inputs.
In addition, I used a 74LS244N bus driver IC and a 74LS00N quad NAND gate IC that I happened to have available. This bus driver is now obsolete, but there are plenty of newer 74LS244x replacements that should do the job as well or better.
The camera data flows through the bus driver onto shared wires that also connect to the LCD and the ESP32. The bus driver has two enable lines - each controls 4 bus output lines. Here I tied the two enable lines together so that a single GPIO pin from the ESP32 can allow the camera data through, or block the data by tri-stating the output lines.
In software, by toggling this tri-state control GPIO line, we allocate the bus to either allow Camera->LCD communication, or LCD<-->ESP32 communication.
When we give the bus to the camera, we also tri-state the ESP32 GPIOs (in fact, making them INPUT is good enough) so that the camera and ESP32 devices do
The VGA timing specs from the camera datasheet (QVGA and QQVGA are subsampled from this timing) have what I call a CountDown interval - the time between the rising edge of VSYNC and the rising edge of the first HREF on the first scan line) of 20 line times. At 25 fps VGA the CountDown interval is 1568 microseconds - and a bit longer for QVGA, which is what we use.
this time that our main loop can take the bus away from the camera and can overlay our own pixels onto the existing image, or set up the destination area for the next data to the LCD, look for touch events, etc.
We also set a camera register that allows us to blank PCLK when no pixel data is present: our LCD doesn"t understand the camera synchronization, and any free-running or spurious clock pulses would cause it to latch invalid data from the bus. This frees us from strict at-the-exact-PCLK timing constraints - it doesn"t matter if we detach or attach the camera onto the bus at any time during CountDown.
I do not move the scanlines out of the DMA buffer. I consume the data in real time and free up the DMA buffer before it is needed again. There are two DMA buffers used alternately. So while the I2S hardware is filling one, we need to be emptying the other one.
So I keep the camera and the I2S capture engine running continuously. After each VSYNC I immediately stop and restart the I2S engine. More about that in a moment.
After each VSYNC I can momentarily stop and restart the I2S engine, but quickly enough so that I know the next scanline will be the first of the next frame.
I do this in case we do lose scanlines or pixels somehow. (I tested this by momentarily grounding the PCLK signal from the camera to confuse the I2S engine. Of course I get bad-looking frames, but once I remove
32-bit "set-these-bits-mask" with three one-bits in the correct places. Direct port writes allow us to also use a mask to clear all 8 data lines at once.
I CAN WALK AGAIN! yaaay.. Back in the lab making videos.This video is the first of a miniseries showing how to interface a camera to a microcontroller (ESP32...
The parts used here are the LOLIN32 microcontroller. Any ESP32 board can be used. The code is currently independent of the actual processor, so you can use also different platforms.
The camera is the cheap OV7670 with FIFO (AL422b). The camera supports up to VGA resolution but the FIFO can only store 3MBit. This is just sufficient for QQVGA or section of higher resolutions.
The “real-time” output is done on the 1.8″ SPI TFT display. Due to the single data line, the update rate is really limited. To be able to run the display on 3.3V the jumper on the back side must be closed.
The pin connections of the devices can also be found in the code. The definitions can be changed except for MOSI and SCK for the SPI interface which is native on these pins on the ESP32. Using other microcontrollers, the corresponding native SPI pins have to be used.
There are some limitations configuring the pins of the ESP32. Pins 34, 35, 36(VP), 39(VN) are read-only. Those can’t be used for I2C, the clock (XCLK) or TFT signals. Pins 0, 2 and 5 are used as boot signals. Those should not be used as inputs to avoid problems while programming. Pin 5 is also attached to the LED on the LOLIN32 board. Pins 6-11 (if available) are a no go since those are wired to the SPI flash memory connected to the ESP32.

SPI0 is permanently reserved for cache access to the flash chip. SPI1 is connected to the same pins via an arbiter and is used to write to flash. You can use SPI1 to also write to other peripherals connected in parallel with the flash (but with another /CS), however, this is tricky to implement because it means you can"t simultaneously access flash anymore. Thats why it"s not in the driver yet.

The WiFi driver conflicts with the SPI bus. Possible solution to use a different library. The problem arose at the time of the initialization of the WiFi module.
The main problem is that the ESP32-CAM module has a limited number of free legs. Part of the ports is used for the camera, part in parallel with the sd-card. The sd-card connector is installed on the board. Another conclusion (IO4) is the LED flashlight.

Several times I caught in the logs "Brownout detector was triggered" so I turned off the detector. Because at first I fed the backlight display from the 3.3V output of the ESP32-CAM
ESP32 low-cost functional module. There is a catastrophic lack of conclusions for implemented ports in the CAM version of the board, so choose the CAM version if you really need a camera.
Right now I"m working to integrate the data plotter and the image viewer features in the main repository of qSerialTerm. Everything should be ready by next week.
In particular, you should check that you are receiving correct data using the default configuration. Then, test that your SCCB interface is working, you should be able to read the OV7670 registers and see their default values.
When doing the YCbCr -> RGB conversion, be sure to use floats/double when carrying out the operations and then limit the obtained R, G, B values between 0 and 255.
Dang not sure how I missed that one. I was using integer. Even with that change I did not get good color image. I had to use register settings I got from Linux driver to get a good image. Not sure why.
About qSerialTerm, it is a quite useful program. The only reason I have not used is that I would have to compile the program myself. That means I have to setup the whole QT environment. Untill now all my time was used up in debugging the camera.
I"m getting a "correct" color image using the above conversion equations, in the sense that the image doesn"t get distorted. But the colors are no good, because instead of green I see magenta and so on.
I have tested the conversion equations against Octave"s rgb2ycbcr function, and it works fine. Maybe the OV7670 follows another conversion standard?. I have also tried switching Cb <-> Cr without any noticeable change in the color output.
We currently have an OV7670 which correctly gives us test patterns, however gives us terribly saturated images with completely incorrect colours. Are you able to share those register settings, or some us advice about how to set this device up for normal looking images? Thanks very much,
I am currently working on real time image processing using FPGA. For that i am using OV7670 camera module. I have got real time video but with wrong colors(mostly magneta color). Can you please mail me the correct color settings?
if I want to use an external clock, do I have to connect the oscillator between XCLK and ground directly or do I need to add a capacitor in series (XCLK - oscillator - cap - GDN)? If yes, which value for the capacitor?
I have a ceramic resonator @ 16Mhz (http://it.rs-online.com/web/p/risonatori-ceramici/5266154/), but it has 3 pins instead of two. Searching on google I"ve seen the the the central pin must be connected to the ground, but I"m stuck with the others two.
Ceramic resonator require an active oscillator circuit. These active oscillators are usually integrated inside microcontrollers, and you have access to it via two pins usually labelled OSC_IN and OSC_OUT.
The OSC_OUT pin won"t have enough current drive and no clock will be produced. This implies that neither your microcontroller nor the OV7670 will work.
I"m using BeagleBone with QNX. But BeagleBone seems not provide an external clock. If I use an external oscillator (crystal) do I have connect one pin to the XCLK and one to the ground without capacitors?
I"ve just found a pin with an external clock on BeagleBone... :) (my fault!) In this case I suppose I have to connect the pin directly to the XCLK (sharing the same GND). Right?
The STM32 F2/F4 microcontrollers have a DCMI peripheral that simplifies the data reception from the camera. I don"t know if the BeagleBone have something similar.
i have interfaced ov7690 with stm32f4 and PIC. i get data in both rgb565 and yuv422 and reconstuct the image . but the image is not so good. u can look my post at
What do you mean with "the image is not so good"? Are you getting a clear image with the wrong colors or are you getting random pixels? Does the grayscale (only the Y channel) image looks clear?
AFAIK in YUV422 mode, getting the right colors with the OV7670 requires some heavy calibration, as stated by brijesh in his/her comment; but the grayscale version should look clear like the image I posted.
Hi Jorge, nice page you have here, seems you have been studying quite a fair bit on OV7670. I am also working on something similar but using AVR uC instead (Atmega16/32) with OV7670 FIFO version and works pretty well.
I am using YUV mode and using the YUV422 equations give me a pretty good looking image, a bit soft but not bad (http://thinksmallthings.wordpress.com/2012/11/03/ov7670-yuv-demystified/).
I"am unable to read proper image data, SCCB works fine for me and I can read registers, but for example when i"m reading frames with my lens covered i get some random numbers - where as you wrote there should be 128 0 pattern. I"m using camera mode with FIFO buffer embedded. Could you send me your code for reading frames ? Or will you be able to help me with this ? I"m using STM32F103VC
I haven"t used the OV7670 FIFO version and I used the STM32F4 which has a Digital Camera Interface (DCMI) that the STM32F1 doesn"t have. That"s the reason my code won"t really help.
Make sure you are supplying a correct clock (12-24 MHz) to the OV7670 XCLK pin. The SCCB works WITHOUT the XCLK, so a working SCCB doesn"t guarantee a working parallel interface (D0-D7).
I"ve just tried to get SCCB working on my OV7670 (like yours: no FIFO) and it looks like it doesn"t work at all until I connect clock source to XCLK pin. After successful test implementation (got 0x80 from 0x01 register etc) i tried to disconnect XCLK signal and it simply stopped working. So it seems to me that XCLK is necessary for SCCB operation.
In the module I use, (ov7970 without fifo) the DVDD pad (core voltage) is simply filtered to ground via capacitor thus ov7670 will generate 1.8 from DOVDD. This requires the DOVDD to range from 2.45V to 3V.
The (blue) model I used in this post has internal LDO regulators. You must have the (black?) model that is wired directly. I have also used the latter with a 3.3V supply and a series Schottky diode.
You need to drive the XCLK pin with a clock signal to make the OV7670 parallel interface (D0-D7) work to get any image data out of it. Also a user reported here that driving the XCLK pin is also necessary to get the SCCB interface working.
Wow, Jorge, it looks like your post has struck a chord with a number of users! If I may throw another question into the fray, I am thinking about using a microprocessor (thinking mbed, but not sure yet) to sample from multiple OV7670s. I don"t need to capture every frame from every camera, just be able to grab a picture from camera 1, then from 2, etc. at whatever rate the processor can manage. Any thoughts on how one might do this with some sort of bus, or would this require a separate processor for each camera?
(1) Hooking multiple OV7670s to the same uC will require a digital circuit to act as a multiplexer and will increase the capacitive load of the logic lines (XCLK, D0-D7), which can degrade or totally corrupt the data.
(3) The OV7670 outputs raw data, that means each frame of 640x480 color pixels equals a minimum of 600 KiB (YUV422 format). This implies you can"t keep one frame in the uC RAM memory (usually less than 200 KiB), so you"ll need to stream the frame to a bigger memory as soon as possible.
I have only the following parts which are OV7670 and Arduino uno board. I wrote my code and I have to cheange the clock function code to either read or write in the registers of the camera"OV7670". But, I can"t get any response from the camera.
You got me there. I don"t have experience with Linux when it comes to accessing peripherals, for this post I used a microcontroller without OS. AFAIK, Linux is more restrictive on specific memory/register access.
My wild guess, is that you"ll need to create a C/C++ project and link/add the necessary Linux drivers (either a parallel interface or the image sensor interface + network interfaces). After that, pretty much everything is specific to your NGW100 board.
"**: On some models the VDD is directly connected to the OV7670 sensor AVDD and DOVDD, in this case VDD should be below 3.0V. With this model I have used a 3.3V supply with a series Schottky diode without problems.
**: There are other models (like the blue one I used in this post) which contain LDO regulators between the VDD and the OV7670 sensor AVDD and DOVDD. I"m not sure how much input voltage these regulators can stand, but I have used 3.3V directly without problems."
Could you please have a look and tell me which kind of supply I need to provide to this camera? And maybe also where are LDO regulators placed (if there are...)?
Hi Jorge, I am trying to store the data in an array that captured from OV7670. I"d like to implement in Keil 4. Can you send me this project? I will surely compensate your effort (which an amount we both agree :) adnanoktar41@hotmail.com
I don"t think you can interface this version of the OV7670 module with a 8 bit uC, because the data is streamed at very high speeds and your uC RAM is way too small.
You might have more luck with the FIFO version (I don"t have experience with that version). But then again, a 8 bit uC has very little RAM so you would be able to process a very scaled down (in resolution) image. If you are using the uC as a buffer to a higher speed interface, then the lack of DMA and processing power will make the uC a bottleneck.
Not true I got it working with an arduino uno I get about 1fps at qvga. Also this is the version without the fifo see http://forum.arduino.cc/index.php?topic=159557.0 and check out my github project for working code https://github.com/ComputerNerd/arduino-camera-tft
On every PCLK transition you should read D0-D7 (one byte), these bytes you read should be a Cb byte, then a Y byte, next a Cr byte, a Y byte again, and the cycle repeats with Cb and so on. (Assuming you are correctly synchronized by HREF and VSYNC)
"A PCLK of 24 MHz will produce 30 fps, a PCLK of 12 MHz will produce 15 fps and so on. All this is independent of the format of the image (VGA, CIF, QCIF, etc)."
I mean, in my purpose I just need to sample the Y component and I can sample it only on the 2nd (and 4th and so on...) rising edge of a 24Mhz PCLK: so pratically I"m working with a 12Mhz pixel clock!
In order to have 30fps and assuming that I"m using the default parameters, I need to feed the XCLK of the camera with a 48Mhz clock... Is my idea right?
