The first step: system powers on, and loads the program among the FLASH, configuration image sensor 12 after loading is accomplished.Configuration image sensor 12 mainly is to accomplish through serial camera control bus (Serial Camera Control Bus is called for short SCCB).SCCB is formulated by OmniVision company to be used for the bus of control chart image-position sensor, on DSP, can directly be used as SCCB through the I2C bus and use, and imageing sensor 23 is configured, and mainly comprises the resolution of the form and the image of its photographic images.The picture format that adopts in the present invention is the YUV422 form, and wherein major concern is the Y component, promptly obtains the half-tone information of sun image.The resolution that the present invention sets cmos image sensor is 640*480.
Second step: images acquired.Crystal oscillator is the clock signal that imageing sensor provides 24M; Imageing sensor 12 inside are with this clock its work major clock of Clock Managing Unit generation through it; At first; Digital signal processor 21 triggers interruption when detecting the rising edge of frame synchronizing signal VSYNC, initialization dma controller 211 (when interrupting first) is put Flag_End and is masked as 1.Next, trigger DSP at the rising edge of line synchronizing signal HREF and interrupt, enable dma controller 211, trigger dma controller 211 at the rising edge of pixel clock signal PCLK and move the data of gathering on the GPIO mouth with behavior unit to image buffer A (B).Because the picture format that adopts is the YUV422 form, corresponding two the pixel clock signal PCLK of each pixel (2bytes), i.e. the DMA twice that to move the needed pixel clock signal PCLK of data line be the pixel number.And only handle the Y component during digital signal processor 21 deal with data, abandon the UV component.
The 3rd step: obtain image.After DMA has moved data line, trigger DMA and interrupt, reconfigure dma controller 211, promptly switch the store data buffer zone address.Simultaneously, digital signal processor 21 carries out Flame Image Process according to buffer flag in image buffer B (A).Rising edge at line synchronizing signal HREF triggers interruption once more; Dma controller 211 is moved the next line view data again to another piece image buffer, like this, and when DSP handles the lastrow data; Dma controller 211 can be moved the data of descending image, to accelerate the speed of system.Every reception one frame image data common property is given birth to 480 capable HREF and is interrupted and 480 DMA data transmission.
The 4th step: carry out data processing output solar vector information.DSP inquiry Flag_End zone bit representes that when it is 1 a two field picture transmits completion, and go to handle the view data of previous frame this moment, and convert the solar facula centre coordinate that processing obtains to sun angle information, calculates three solar vector information outputs; If the sun is positioned at the measurement blind area of cmos image sensor; Then handling the solar facula centre coordinate that obtains is (0; 0), abandons handling the information of CMOS sun sensor this moment, gather the sun information of voltage of four-piece type simulated solar sensor through A/D converter output through the I2C bus; And convert the output of solar vector information to, thereby overcome the blind area of CMOS sun sensor.
Digital signal processor 21 constantly repeats the operation in~the four step of second step in entire work process.
The above is merely preferred implementation of the present invention, and protection scope of the present invention is not limited in above-mentioned embodiment, and every technical scheme that belongs to the principle of the invention all belongs to protection scope of the present invention.For a person skilled in the art, some improvement and the retouching under the prerequisite that does not break away from principle of the present invention, carried out, these improvement and retouching also should be regarded as protection scope of the present invention.
