Important Note On The IMX477 MiPi Lanes

Our IMX477 camera module support 4-lane in hardware, but the 4-lane camera driver requires extra customization. Here is why:

1. Standard Raspberry Pi and Jetson Nano/Xavier NX can’t physically support a 4-lane connection (both of them only have 2-lane CSI connectors). Only the Raspberry Pi Compute Module and some 3rd party Jetson Carrier Boards come with 4-lane hardware support. Therefore, it’s not a general need.
2. Extra works, specifically camera drivers, are required for a 4-lane connection other than the 4-lane physical connector. And the drivers are limited by the performance of the platform itself. For example, 4-lane can’t unlock 4k video on Raspberry Pi because the VideoCore does not currently support it. Jetson Nano is also to some extent limited because of the encoding capabilities. You need to make sure you really need it.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Can I use this module with a Raspberry Pi Model 4B?

No. This camera is designed for Compute Module series (CM, CM3, CM3+, CM4) and requires the V2 CSI-2 connector found only on their carrier boards.

Q: Does the package include the lens and mounting hardware?

Yes. The Arducam MINI IMX477 kit comes with a low-distortion M12 mount lens pre-installed on the 24 mm × 25 mm camera board.

Q: How do I achieve full 4-lane performance of the IMX477?

While the sensor hardware supports 4-lane MIPI CSI-2, standard Raspberry Pi and Jetson boards only expose 2 lanes. Full 4-lane operation requires a custom carrier board and driver modifications.
