Flash Control Reference
|
|
***********************
|
|
|
|
The V4L2 flash controls are intended to provide generic access to flash
|
|
controller devices. Flash controller devices are typically used in
|
|
digital cameras.
|
|
|
|
The interface can support both LED and xenon flash devices. As of
|
|
writing this, there is no xenon flash driver using this interface.

Supported use cases
|
|
===================
|
|
|
|
|
|
Unsynchronised LED flash (software strobe)
|
|
------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Unsynchronised LED flash is controlled directly by the host as the
|
|
sensor. The flash must be enabled by the host before the exposure of the
|
|
image starts and disabled once it ends. The host is fully responsible
|
|
for the timing of the flash.
|
|
|
|
Example of such device: Nokia N900.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Synchronised LED flash (hardware strobe)
|
|
----------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
The synchronised LED flash is pre-programmed by the host (power and
|
|
timeout) but controlled by the sensor through a strobe signal from the
|
|
sensor to the flash.
|
|
|
|
The sensor controls the flash duration and timing. This information
|
|
typically must be made available to the sensor.
|
|
|
|
|
|
LED flash as torch
|
|
------------------
|
|
|
|
LED flash may be used as torch in conjunction with another use case
|
|
involving camera or individually.

|
|
|
|
``V4L2_CID_FLASH_CLASS (class)``
|
|
The FLASH class descriptor.
|
|
|
|
``V4L2_CID_FLASH_LED_MODE (menu)``
|
|
Defines the mode of the flash LED, the high-power white LED attached
|
|
to the flash controller. Setting this control may not be possible in
|
|
presence of some faults. See V4L2_CID_FLASH_FAULT.

|
|
|
|
* - ``V4L2_FLASH_STROBE_SOURCE_SOFTWARE``
|
|
- The flash strobe is triggered by using the
|
|
V4L2_CID_FLASH_STROBE control.
|
|
* - ``V4L2_FLASH_STROBE_SOURCE_EXTERNAL``
|
|
- The flash strobe is triggered by an external source. Typically
|
|
this is a sensor, which makes it possible to synchronises the
|
|
flash strobe start to exposure start.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
``V4L2_CID_FLASH_STROBE (button)``
|
|
Strobe flash. Valid when V4L2_CID_FLASH_LED_MODE is set to
|
|
V4L2_FLASH_LED_MODE_FLASH and V4L2_CID_FLASH_STROBE_SOURCE
|
|
is set to V4L2_FLASH_STROBE_SOURCE_SOFTWARE. Setting this
|
|
control may not be possible in presence of some faults. See
|
|
V4L2_CID_FLASH_FAULT.
|
|
|
|
``V4L2_CID_FLASH_STROBE_STOP (button)``
|
|
Stop flash strobe immediately.
|
|
|
|
``V4L2_CID_FLASH_STROBE_STATUS (boolean)``
|
|
Strobe status: whether the flash is strobing at the moment or not.
|
|
This is a read-only control.
|
|
|
|
``V4L2_CID_FLASH_TIMEOUT (integer)``
|
|
Hardware timeout for flash. The flash strobe is stopped after this
|
|
period of time has passed from the start of the strobe.
|
|
|
|
``V4L2_CID_FLASH_INTENSITY (integer)``
|
|
Intensity of the flash strobe when the flash LED is in flash mode
|
|
(V4L2_FLASH_LED_MODE_FLASH). The unit should be milliamps (mA)
|
|
if possible.
|
|
|
|
``V4L2_CID_FLASH_TORCH_INTENSITY (integer)``
|
|
Intensity of the flash LED in torch mode
|
|
(V4L2_FLASH_LED_MODE_TORCH). The unit should be milliamps (mA)
|
|
if possible. Setting this control may not be possible in presence of
|
|
some faults. See V4L2_CID_FLASH_FAULT.
|
|
|
|
``V4L2_CID_FLASH_INDICATOR_INTENSITY (integer)``
|
|
Intensity of the indicator LED. The indicator LED may be fully
|
|
independent of the flash LED. The unit should be microamps (uA) if
|
|
possible.
|
|
|
|
``V4L2_CID_FLASH_FAULT (bitmask)``
|
|
Faults related to the flash. The faults tell about specific problems
|
|
in the flash chip itself or the LEDs attached to it. Faults may
|
|
prevent further use of some of the flash controls. In particular,
|
|
V4L2_CID_FLASH_LED_MODE is set to V4L2_FLASH_LED_MODE_NONE
|
|
if the fault affects the flash LED. Exactly which faults have such
|
|
an effect is chip dependent. Reading the faults resets the control
|
|
and returns the chip to a usable state if possible.

|
|
|
|
* - ``V4L2_FLASH_FAULT_OVER_VOLTAGE``
|
|
- Flash controller voltage to the flash LED has exceeded the limit
|
|
specific to the flash controller.
|
|
* - ``V4L2_FLASH_FAULT_TIMEOUT``
|
|
- The flash strobe was still on when the timeout set by the user ---
|
|
V4L2_CID_FLASH_TIMEOUT control --- has expired. Not all flash
|
|
controllers may set this in all such conditions.
|
|
* - ``V4L2_FLASH_FAULT_OVER_TEMPERATURE``
|
|
- The flash controller has overheated.
|
|
* - ``V4L2_FLASH_FAULT_SHORT_CIRCUIT``
|
|
- The short circuit protection of the flash controller has been
|
|
triggered.
|
|
* - ``V4L2_FLASH_FAULT_OVER_CURRENT``
|
|
- Current in the LED power supply has exceeded the limit specific to
|
|
the flash controller.
|
|
* - ``V4L2_FLASH_FAULT_INDICATOR``
|
|
- The flash controller has detected a short or open circuit
|
|
condition on the indicator LED.
|
|
* - ``V4L2_FLASH_FAULT_UNDER_VOLTAGE``
|
|
- Flash controller voltage to the flash LED has been below the
|
|
minimum limit specific to the flash controller.
|
|
* - ``V4L2_FLASH_FAULT_INPUT_VOLTAGE``
|
|
- The input voltage of the flash controller is below the limit under
|
|
which strobing the flash at full current will not be possible.The
|
|
condition persists until this flag is no longer set.
|
|
* - ``V4L2_FLASH_FAULT_LED_OVER_TEMPERATURE``
|
|
- The temperature of the LED has exceeded its allowed upper limit.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
``V4L2_CID_FLASH_CHARGE (boolean)``
|
|
Enable or disable charging of the xenon flash capacitor.
|
|
|
|
``V4L2_CID_FLASH_READY (boolean)``
|
|
Is the flash ready to strobe? Xenon flashes require their capacitors
|
|
charged before strobing. LED flashes often require a cooldown period
|
|
after strobe during which another strobe will not be possible. This
|
|
is a read-only control.
