In order to improve the user experience and meet the use requirements of users, the multi-camera function becomes a great development direction of the camera technology,

The camera module is connected with a control chip on a mobile phone mainboard through an I2C bus, the control chip is a host, and a plurality of functional modules of the camera module mounted on the I2C bus are slaves. The I2C bus is a bi-directional two-wire continuous bus that passes information between devices connected to the bus via a Serial Data (SDA) line and a Serial Clock (SCL) line.

The terminal is provided with a plurality of cameras, and the camera modules of the cameras are different in software for driving the cameras due to differences of production channels, manufacturing processes and the like. When the terminal loads the plurality of cameras, the loading time of the driving software of the plurality of cameras is prolonged, the operation interface is displayed after the terminal is started in severe cases, and when a user wants to use the camera to shoot, the driving of the camera is not loaded, so that the user cannot normally use the functions of the camera, and the user experience is influenced.
