2.3.2 IR camera (FlexIO)
The SLN-TLHMI-IOT board supports an IR camera module for supplying IR images for
2D face recognition. The camera module has a GalaxyCore GC0308 VGA sensor, which
provides a full-scale integration of high performance and low power with 640V x 480H
resolution, 1/6.5-inch optical format, and on-chip ISP features.
Data is transmitted from the parallel CSI interface to the FlexIO interface of the i.MX
RT117H MCU. The FlexIO interface emulates the running timing of the parallel CSI
interface to receive IR images. The i.MX RT117H MCU configures and controls the
GC0308 IR camera via its I2C5 interface, along with two GPIOs that are used for power-
down and reset.
The GC0308 IR camera is installed on the board through a 24-pin FPC connector (Molex
505110-2491). The figure below shows the circuit diagram of the IR camera connector.
