But you are correct - there does seem to be a recessed metal inner sleeve. I had looked for one, but couldn’t see one - tried again after your post (with a brighter light!)
I still need a chassis mount socket for it, though…
There is a 12v car lead - which makes me wonder if that centre pin is actually used at all…
I want to connect five OV2640 cameras via FPC to an ESP32 on a custom PCB. Is this generally possible and does the ESP32 have enough power for this or do I need an ESP32 for each camera? The frames per second are not so important as the cameras will be used as QR code scanners. Which components allow to run so many cameras with...
Usual situation - if I needed to interface to 5 cameras I wouldn’t start with ones that needed: “The DVP physical interface consists of a single, 100-conductor, 110-ohm cable organized. as 45 differential signal pairs. These signal pairs consist of the following: • 36 RGB data pairs. • 2 clock pairs.” So, you would be interfacing to 5 x 45 differential pairs. I’d be looking for camera modules with serial output…
Or, as you suggest, give each camera something that can convert that lot into a single serial data stream. Or even process it down to a QR code and just send that. Or even do what-ever it is that you want to do with that code, once received.
Can't find a 7.4 x 5.08mm female chassis mount socket - am I using the wrong description?
I have a 12v 6.67A power supply with a male co-axial plug (with centre pin) that’s 7.4mm OD and 5.08mm ID. The metal tube is 12.5mm long....
