JPEG Color Camera - UART Interface

Product Description

Replacement: SEN-10061. This page is for reference only.

Description: This is a simple-to-use, UART controlled, color camera with on-board JPEG compression. Capable of resolutions up to 640x480, and a number of color types. Send the snapshot command, and this module will capture a single-frame picture, compress it, and send it back over a serial connection. The easy-to-use and well defined command set is detailed in the User's Manual below.

Note: This is a last time buy for this camera. COMedia is discontinuing the C328 serial series cameras. They have announced plans for another serial camera but have no information or ETA at this time. We have a few left, but when they're gone, they're gone.



This module includes an OmniVision OV7640/8 VGA camera sensor, OV528 camera-to-serial bridge, program EEPROM and a 4-wire cable that mates with the camera module.
