In the present embodiment, imageing sensor 12 is as follows with the communication detailed process of digital signal processor 21:
1., after digital signal processor 21 powers on and loaded in program storage block 24 program, first imageing sensor 12 is carried out to the configuration of picture format and resolution.
2. output image under the clock that provides at crystal oscillator of imageing sensor 12, interrupt at the rising edge triggered digital signal processor 21 of frame synchronizing signal VSYNC, arranging zone bit Flag_End is 1, represents the end of a two field picture, if first time enters to interrupt, then also need to carry out initialization operation to DMA.Digital signal processor 21 inquires this zone bit when being 1, changes, obtain three axle solar vector information to coordinate information in the solar facula of previous frame.
3. line synchronizing signal HREF rising edge again triggered digital signal processor 21 interrupt, buffer flag is initialized as 1 when entering to interrupt by first time, by buffer flag negate later at every turn when entering, enable dma controller 211 simultaneously, the rising edge trigger DMA controller 211 of PCLK moves a line view data to image buffer A (B) from GPIO, and after data-moving completes, trigger DMA interruption, reconfigure dma controller 211, switch the address of buffer zone, alternately every row view data is cushioned.When carrying out buffer memory with behavior unit to view data, have employed the method for opening up double buffering.Concrete grammar is: when buffer flag is 1, image buffer A is used as the buffer zone of current line view data, namely dma controller 211 by current line view data stored in image buffer A, and digital signal processor 21 couples of image buffer B carry out peek operation and process, otherwise, when buffer flag is 0, image buffer B is used as the image buffer of current line view data, digital signal processor 21 couples of image buffer A carry out peek operation and process, realize the isolation in the physical space of buffer zone with this, efficiently solve read-write operation collision problem.

Second step: gather image.Crystal oscillator provides the clock signal of 24M for imageing sensor, this clock is produced its work major clock through its Clock Managing Unit by imageing sensor 12 inside, first, digital signal processor 21 is triggered interrupts when the rising edge of frame synchronizing signal VSYNC being detected, initialize DMA controller 211 (when interrupting first), puts Flag_End and is masked as 1.Next, DSP interrupt is triggered at the rising edge of line synchronizing signal HREF, enable dma controller 211, moves data that GPIO mouth gathers to image buffer A (B) at the rising edge trigger DMA controller 211 of pixel clock signal PCLK with behavior unit.Because the picture format adopted is YUV422 form, corresponding two the pixel clock signal PCLK of each pixel (2bytes), namely DMA moves the twice that the pixel clock signal PCLK required for data line is pixel number.And digital signal processor 21 only processes Y-component when processing data, abandons UV component.
3rd step: obtain image.After DMA has moved data line, trigger DMA interrupt, reconfigure dma controller 211, namely switch store data buffer zone address.Meanwhile, digital signal processor 21 carries out image procossing according to buffer flag in image buffer B (A).At the rising edge triggered interrupts again of line synchronizing signal HREF, dma controller 211 moves again next line view data to another block image buffer, like this, while DSP process lastrow data, dma controller 211 can move the data of descending image, to accelerate the speed of system.Often receive raw 480 the row HREF of a frame image data common property to interrupt and 480 DMA data transmission.
4th step: carry out data processing and export solar vector information.DSP inquires about Flag_End zone bit, represents that a two field picture transmission completes when it is 1, now goes the view data processing previous frame, and converts sun angle information to processing the solar facula centre coordinate obtained, and the three axle solar vector information that calculate export; If the sun is positioned at the measurement blind area of cmos image sensor, then processing the solar facula centre coordinate obtained is (0,0), now abandon the information processing CMOS sun sensor, by the sun information of voltage that I2C bus collection four-piece type simulated solar sensor is exported by A/D converter, and convert the output of solar vector information to, thus overcome the blind area of CMOS sun sensor.
Digital signal processor 21, in the whole course of work, constantly repeats the operation of second step ~ the 4th step.
