Integration Support for VD56G3 Camera Sensor with STM32N6

Hi everyone,

I am currently working with the STM32N6570-DK board and would like to integrate the STEVAL-56G3MAI camera module with it. The camera's overview page mentions that it supports the STM32N6 series. However, I have been unable to locate any STM32N6 header files to facilitate this integration.

I did come across the STSW-IMG502 software package, which also lists STM32N6 compatibility, but it only includes drivers for Raspberry Pi and Linux platforms.

I would greatly appreciate any guidance or resources (e.g., example projects, driver libraries) that could help me successfully interface this camera with the STM32N6570-DK board.

Thank you in advance for your support.

Solved:
As mentioned above, the code in given link does support multiple cameras. However, my specific camera model, VD56G3, which is a monochrome sensor, was not directly available. Among the supported sensors listed, there is a VD6G sensor, which is functionally equivalent to the VD56G3 but also supports RGB. Both sensors share almost the same patch files and register mappings.

By making a few modifications in the DCMIPP and LTDC configuration, I was able to successfully get the camera feed working.

Hi @athern27,

Sure, the STM32N6 drivers are available at this link. They are compatible with the VD56G3 camera sensor. You will  find all the necessary libraries and some example projects.

If you have any questions related to the driver,  I recommend contacting the MEMS (sensors) group directly, as they are managing it.

Regards, Megane
