[PATCH 1/3] Documentation: media: camera-sensor: Correct frame interval

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The formula to compute the frame interval uses the analogue crop
rectangle dimensions to compute the total frame size in conjunction with
blankings.

Horizontal and vertical blankings are realized by extending the time
interval during which no valid pixels are sent on the bus between
visible lines and between consecutive frames, whose size is smaller than
the analogue crop rectangle if any additional cropping or pixel
subsampling is applied on the sensor processing pipeline.

Correct the documentation to use the visible line length and frame
height instead of the analogue crop dimensions.

 The frame interval is calculated using the following equation::
 
-	frame interval = (analogue crop width + horizontal blanking) *
-			 (analogue crop height + vertical blanking) / pixel rate
+	frame interval = (visible width + horizontal blanking) *
+			 (visibile height + vertical blanking) / pixel rate
 
 The formula is bus independent and is applicable for raw timing parameters on

 Horizontal and vertical blanking are specified by ``V4L2_CID_HBLANK`` and
 ``V4L2_CID_VBLANK``, respectively. The unit of the ``V4L2_CID_HBLANK`` control
