ArduCAM-M-2MP Camera User Guide 6 Block Diagram Figure 2 shows the block diagram of ArduCAM mini shield which is composed by lens, image sensor and an ArduChip. The lens is changeable and can be mounted by S-mount (M12x0.5) or CS-mount lens holder. The image sensor is 2MP CMOS OV2640 from Omnivision. The ArduChip uses ArduCAM proprietary third generation camera controller technology which handles the complex camera, memory and user interface hardware timing and provides a user friendly SPI interface.
