DENEBOLA (See3CAM_CX3_RDK_H01R2) - Infineon EZ-USB™ CX3 Reference Design
Infineon Reference Design Kit, Denebola (See3CAM_CX3_RDK_H01R2) is an USB 3.0 - USB video class (UVC) camera RDK for Infineon Semiconductor's EZ-USB™ CX3 USB 3.0 peripheral controller. The Infineon EZ-USB™ CX3 is a USB 3.0 peripheral controller that enables developers to add USB 3.0 connectivity to any image sensor compliant with the Mobile Industry Processor Interface (MIPI) Camera Serial Interface Type 2 (CSI-2) standard.
The Denebola RDK developed using EZ-USB™ CX3 is a complete RDK and has the OmniVision® OV5640 CMOS image sensor interfaced to it through a two-lane MIPI CSI-2 interface. This is a fully functional camera RDK that can stream uncompressed 720p60, 1080p30, and 5 MP at 15 fps. Denebola RDK is a two-board solution containing a base board designed around the Infineon CX3 USB 3.0 peripheral controller and the camera daughter board designed using the OmniVision® OV5640 CMOS image-sensor-based autofocus camera module.
The Denebola RDK support various CMOS image sensors and e-con provides add-on camera daughter boards that can be plugged on to the RDK. For a complete list of supported CMOS sensors, please view accessories tab.
Customer Speaks:
We purchased Denebola, See3CAM_CX3_RDK_H01R2. We are extremely impressed with Denebola because we were able to modify the firmware to access the camera module resisters, Read More..

The Denebola RDK is a two-board solution containing a base board designed around the Infineon CX3 USB 3.0 Peripheral controller and a Camera daughter board designed using the OmniVision OV5640 CMOS image sensor based autofocus camera module. e-con also supports various camera sensor daughter boards that can be used to evaluate the CX3 performance with various CMOS Image sensors. For a complete list of supported CMOS sensors, please view accessories tab.
Based on the proven EZ-USB FX3 Platform, CX3 comes with an ARM9 CPU and 512KB SRAM that provides 200 MIPS of computational power. The CX3 supports MIPI CSI-2 version 1.01, up to 4 data lanes with data speed up to 1Gbps per lane, for a total bandwidth of 4 Gbps. CX3 is ideally suited for high-definition or high-speed image-capturing applications. CX3 supports multiple peripheral interfaces such as I2C, SPI, and UART, which can be programmed to support Pan, Tilt and Zoom or other camera control functions.
