## Description

The Arducam 5MP Plus OV5642 Mini is an SPI-enabled camera module designed for low-cost microcontrollers like Arduino and RP2040. With 5MP resolution and a generous 8MB frame buffer, it supports JPEG compression, multiple capture modes, and RAW/YUV/RGB output formats — all controllable via SPI for simplified integration. A step up from the Arducam-M-5MP, this module features an M12 mount lens holder with interchangeable lenses. Multiple modules can be controlled from the same microcontroller, and code libraries are available for Arduino, STM32, Chipkit, Raspberry Pi, and BeagleBone Black. Key Features 5MP Resolution – Active array 2592 × 1944, supports 1080p, 720p, VGA, QVGA SPI Interface – Up to 8MHz, simplified microcontroller integration 8MB Frame Buffer – Single/multiple shoot, burst read, and short movie recording Multiple Output Formats – RAW, YUV, RGB, JPEG compression Interchangeable Lens – M12 mount (default 55° FOV lens included) Multi-Camera Support – Control multiple modules from one microcontroller Low Power Mode – For battery-powered applications Specifications Sensor: OV5642 Power Supply: 3.3–5V Pixel Size: 1.4µm × 1.4µm Shutter: Rolling shutter Default Lens: 1/4" sensor, EFL 4.9mm, F/2.2, 60° HFOV Size: 34 × 24mm Weight: 20g Operating Temperature: -10°C to +55°C Ideal For Arduino and RP2040 camera projects Image capture and processing applications Multi-camera setups IoT and embedded vision projects Resources User Guide (PDF) OV5642 Sensor Datasheet (PDF) Application Note (PDF) 3D Drawing (STEP) Source Code on GitHub
