Flex Config User Guide

The "Flex Config" application is mainly for internal Aptina ON Semiconductor use only, targeted mainly to Application Engineers, but is also available to customers.
Note: if something goes wrong with a Demo3 FW updated, follow these instructions to recover.

It enables a user to store a sensor or ISP configuration on the Demo3 that gets applied upon power-up, and optionally can enable the HDMI port of the Demo3.It can also optionally setup the UVC default Descriptor and download FW that converts the Demo3 in to a UVC device.
Intended use-cases include;

  • Automotive; in conjunction with headboard Flash programming of the headboard, demonstrate that by only applying power to the Demo3 that images can be streamed.
  • Mobile; for ICP, store custom configurations that don't require DevWare initialization.
  • Enable the Demo3 be an UVC plug-and-play device with the default Descriptor.

Supported SOCs.

The Demo3 can be updated with UVC FW to enable select SOCs to be UVC devices,. This same tool is used to program a Demo3 back to a USB device.

Each supported SOC has its own unique UVC FW image that must be programmed in to the Demo3 in order to enable it to be be used as a UVC device.
The following is a list of the supported SOCs along with their revision and interface; note that these must be a direct match for SOC to work properly
