## Overview

The Arducam Mini Module Camera Shield features a 2MP OV2640 CMOS sensor with interchangeable M12 or CS lens mounts, supporting SPI and I2C interfaces. Designed for seamless integration with Arduino, Raspberry Pi, and other MCU platforms, it offers versatile imaging capabilities in a compact form factor, backed by open-source code for rapid development.

## Description

Arducam-M-2MP is optimized version of Arducam shield Rev.C, and is a high definition 2MP SPI camera, which reduce the complexity of the camera control interface. It integrates 2MP CMOS image sensor OV2640, and provides miniature size, as well as the easy to use hardware interface and open source code library. The Arducam mini can be used in any platforms like Arduino, Raspberry Pi, Maple, Chipkit, Beaglebone black, as long as they have SPI and I2C interface and can be well mated with standard Arduino boards. Arducam mini not only offers the capability to add a camera interface which doesn’t have in some low cost microcontrollers, but also provides the capability to add multiple cameras to a single microcontroller. Application: IoT cameras Robot cameras Wildlife cameras Other battery-powered products Can be used in MCU, Raspberry Pi, ARM, DSP, FPGA platforms Features: 2 megapixels image sensor OV2640 M12 mount or CS mount lens holder with changeable lens options IR sensitive with proper lens combination I2C interface for the sensor configuration SPI interface for camera commands and data stream All IO ports are 5V/3.3V tolerant Support JPEG compression mode, single and multiple shoot mode, one time capture multiple read operation, burst read operation, low power mode and etc. Well mated with standard Arduino boards Provide open source code library for Arduino, STM32, Chipkit, Raspberry Pi, BeagleBone Black Small form of factor Package Including: 1pcs Arducam Mini module Camera Shield With OV2640 2 megapixels lens for Arduino UNO Mega2560 board NOTE:Arduino UNO is not incldued

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How do I connect this to an Uno? The photo show the shield connected (apart from the VCC and GND) to digital pins 8-11, GND and AREF. Correct?**
A: Go to http://www.arducam.com/camera-modules/2mp-ov2640/ and you will find all of the answers you need.

**Q: Does anyone know what light wavelengths this will pick up?  I'd like to capture visible as well as infrared images.**
A: Our default lens only pass visible light, if you need both visible and infrared light, you need to choose other lenses, http://www.arducam.com/downloads/Lenses/HX1820.JPG we can use this lens without IR filter

**Q: How many frames per second can you get with this camera? (I'm not necessarily going to use an Arduino)**
A: I haven't got specific measurements yet, but the real limit isn't frames per second but your data throughput. At a lower resolution a frame appears to be well under 10 ms (i.e. something over 100 fps) - you can only read data out of the FIFO buffer at 1 byte per 12 microseconds or so according to the sample code, so that would give you a hard limit from the module itself.

**Q: What is the current draw for this camera?**
A: Roughly 12 ma
