本申请主张在2019年10月30日在中国提交的中国专利申请号No.201911044545.1的优先权,其全部内容通过引用包含于此。
技术领域
本发明涉及电子技术领域,尤其涉及一种摄像模组及电子设备。
背景技术
随着电子技术的飞速发展,智能手机以及平板电脑等电子设备已越来越普及,并逐渐成为人们日常生活不可缺少的一部分。为满足人们对于电子设备的摄像功能越来越高的要求,目前电子设备通常设置多个摄像头,例如,电子设备的前后两侧各设置一个或者多个摄像头,从而满足不同场景下的拍摄需求以及有效提升拍摄质量。
其中,在电子设备设置有多个摄像头的情况下,每一摄像头通常是通过移动产业处理器接口(Mobile Industry Processor Interface,MIPI)将图像信号传输至图像处理器连,且通过摄像头的MIPI发送端口与处理器的MIPI接收端口之间设置开关单元(如单刀多掷开关),实现控制各摄像头在不同场景下的分时拍摄。但是,由于开关单元的体积通常较大,在电子设备的电路板上占用较大的安装空间,在电路板面积有限的情况下,使得电路板上承载的各元器件之间过于紧凑,不利于电子设备元器件之间的散热,从而容易造成电子设备的损坏。
可见,目前设置有多个摄像头的电子设备存在可靠性低的问题。
发明内容
本发明实施例提供一种摄像模组及电子设备,以解决目前设置有多个摄像头的电子设备存在可靠性低的问题。
为解决上述问题,本发明实施例是这样实现的:
第一方面,本发明实施例提供一种摄像模组,应用于包括处理器的电子设备,所述摄像模组包括第一摄像头和第二摄像头,所述第一摄像头设置有M个第一信号端,所述第二摄像头设置有N个第二信号端,所述M和所述N为正整数,且所述M大于或者等于所述N:
所述M个第一信号端与所述处理器连接形成M条连接线路;
所述N个第二信号端与所述M条连接线路中的N条连接线路一一对应连接,且至少一个第二信号端通过电阻连接至其所对应的连接线路。
第二方面,本发明实施例还提供一种电子设备,包括上述摄像模组。
本发明实施例的摄像模组,包括第一摄像头和第二摄像头,第一摄像头设置有M个第一信号端,第二摄像头设置有N个第二信号端,M和N为正整数,且M大于或者等于N:M个第一信号端与处理器连接形成M条连接线路;N个第二信号端与M条连接线路中的N条连接线路一一对应连接,且至少一个第二信号端通过电阻连接至其所对应的连接线路。这样,既可以实现第一摄像头和第二摄像头的分时拍摄,又可以降低第一摄像头拍摄时的信号反射,提升摄像模组的拍摄质量。
附图说明

图2是本发明实施例提供的摄像模组的结构示意图之二;
图3a是本发明实施例提供的第一摄像头的信号眼图之一
图3b是本发明实施例提供的第一摄像头的信号眼图之二;
图3c是本发明实施例提供的第二摄像头的信号眼图;
图4是本发明实施例提供的摄像模组的结构示意图之三;
图5是本发明实施例提供的摄像模组的结构示意图之四。
具体实施方式
下面将结合本发明实施例中的附图,对本发明实施例中的技术方案进行清楚、完整地描述,显然,所描述的实施例是本发明一部分实施例,而不是全部的实施例。基于本发明中的实施例,本领域普通技术人员在没有作出创造 性劳动前提下所获得的所有其他实施例,都属于本发明保护的范围。
参见图1,图1是本发明实施例提供的一种摄像模组的结构示意图,该摄像模组应用于包括处理器的电子设备,如图1所示,摄像模组包括第一摄像头21和第二摄像头22,第一摄像头21设置有M个第一信号端211,第二摄像头22设置有N个第二信号端221,M和N为正整数,且M大于或者等于N:
M个第一信号端211与处理器10连接形成M条连接线路23;
N个第二信号端221与M条连接线路23中的N条连接线路23一一对应连接,且至少一个第二信号端221通过电阻24连接至其所对应的连接线路23。
这里,摄像模组通过将第二摄像头22的信号端,连接至对应的第一摄像头21与处理器10形成的连接线路23,从而在第一摄像头21和第二摄像头22不同时间拍摄图像时,处理器10可以分别接收到第一摄像头21的第一信号端211和第二摄像头22的第二信号端221传输的信号,从而无需设置开关单元即可实现第一摄像头21和第二摄像头22的分时拍摄。
另外,由于第二信号端221连接在第一信号端211与处理器10之间的连接线路23上,在第一信号端211传输信号时,传输信号会通过连接线路23至第二信号端221的线路到达第二信号端221,第二摄像头22作为负载会造成信号反射,且第一信号端211至第二信号端221的线路越长,信号反射越严重,反射信号会影响到处理器10接收到的传输信号,导致第一摄像头21的信号眼图变差;而通过在第二信号端221与其对应的连接线路23之间设置电阻24,第一信号端211的传输信号到达电阻24时反射,相比于到达第二信号端221再反射,可以缩短传输信号在连接线路23与第二信号端221之间传输的线路长度,从而降低第一信号端211的传输信号的反射,提升第一摄像头21的拍摄质量,进而提升摄像模组的拍摄质量。
需要说明的是,上述M个第一信号端211是第一摄像头21的MIPI发送接口的信号端,且每一第一信号端211可以是用于传输时钟信号的时钟信号端或者用于传输数据信号的数据信号端等;同样地,上述N个第二信号端221可以是第二摄像头22的MIPI发送接口的信号端,且每一第一信号端211也 可以是时钟信号端或者数据信号端等,在此并不进行限定。
另外,上述至少一个第二信号端221可以是N个第二信号端221中的部分或者全部第二信号端221,例如,在上述N个第二信号端221包括时钟信号端的情况下,可以是仅时钟信号端连接有电阻24;或者,在一些实施方式中,所述N个第二信号端221中,每一第二信号端221通过电阻连接至其所对应的连接线路,即上述至少一个第二信号端221为上述N个第二信号端221,从而可以进一步降低第一摄像头21的信号反射,进一步提升第一摄像头21的拍摄质量。
在一些实施方式中,上述第一连接线路23的连接点与第一连接线路23所连接的第一信号端211之间的线路长度,小于连接点与第一连接线路23所连接的第二信号端221之间的线路长度;
第一连接线路23为N条连接线路23中的任一条连接线路23。
这里,由于第一信号端211至连接点的线路长度小于对应的第二信号端221至连接点的线路长度,若第一信号端211的传输信号达到对应的第二信号端221,则可能产生严重的反射,而通过在对应的第二信号端221至连接点之间设置电阻24,则可以使降低信号反射的效果更显著。
当然,上述第一连接线路23的连接点与第一连接线路23所连接的第一信号端211之间的线路长度,也可以等于或者大于连接点与第一连接线路23所连接的第二信号端221之间的线路长度,在此并不进行限定。
在一些实施方式中,上述目标第二信号端221通过第一电阻24连接至第二连接线路23,且第一电阻24与目标第二信号端221之间的第一线路长度大于第二线路长度,其中:
第二线路长度为:第一电阻24与第二连接线路23之间的线路长度;
目标第二信号端221为至少一个第二信号端221中的任一第二信号端221。
同样地,由于第一线路长度大于第二线路长度,从而可以进一步缩短目标第二信号端221对应的第一信号端211的传输信号,在第二连接线路23至目标第二信号端221之间传输的线路长度,从而进一步降低第一信号端211的传输信号的反射。
当然,第一线路长度也可以小于或者等于第二线路长度,在此也不作限定。
需要说明的是,由于第二摄像头22的第二信号端221在传输信号时,传输信号也会到达第一摄像头21产生反射信号,导致第二摄像头22的信号眼图变差,为降低第二摄像头22的拍摄质量受反射信号的影响,在一些实施方式中,第一摄像头21和第二摄像头22满足以下至少一项:
第二摄像头22的像素低于第一摄像头21的像素;
第二摄像头22的信号频率低于第一摄像头21的信号频率;
第二摄像头22的传输速率低于第一摄像头21的传输速率。
本发明实施例中,上述第一信号端211和第二信号端221的数量可以相同,即上述M等于上述N。
示例性地,如图2中所示,摄像模组包括摄像头A(相当于第一摄像头21)、摄像头B(相当于第二摄像头22)以及电阻模块,且摄像头B为低像素摄像头,摄像头A可以为高像素摄像头,也可以像素高于摄像头B的低像素摄像头;
其中,摄像头A的MIPI发送接口A包括时钟信号端CLKA、数据信号端D1A和D2A(相当于M个第一信号端211,且M=3),CLKA、D1A和D2A与处理器10的MIPI接收接口连接,且CLKA与MIPI接收端口的CLK连接、D1A与MIPI接收端口的D1连接以及D2A与MIPI接收端口的D2连接,形成3条连接线路23;
电阻模块包括电阻R1、电阻R2和电阻R3,且电阻R1、电阻R2和电阻R3的阻值范围可以为5Ω至200Ω;
摄像头B的MIPI发送接口B包括时钟信号端CLKB、数据信号端D1B和D2B(相当于N个第二信号端221,且N=3),且CLKB通过电阻R1连接于CLK1与CLK之间的连接线路23上,D1B通过电阻R2连接于D1A与D1之间的连接线路23上,以及D2B通过电阻R3连接于D2A与D2之间的连接线路23上(即上述至少一个第二信号端221包括CLKB、D1B和D2B),且电阻模块靠近摄像头A设置;
摄像头A和摄像头B采集到的包含图像信息的电信号通过MIPI接口传 输到处理器10,MIPI发送接口A和MIPI发送接口B为输出,MIPI接收接口为输入,MIPI发送接口A和MIPI发送接口B上述走线电气连接,CLKA、D1A、D2A、CLK、D1、D2、CLKB、D1B、D2B为MIPI差分对走线的网络名,一个差分对包含P和N两条MIPI走线,所有连接到同一个公共节点的MIPI走线实现电气连接;电阻模块的一端连接到MIPI发送接口B,另一端连接到公共节点处;
当摄像头A工作时,摄像头B处于待机或断电状态,此时CLKA、D1A、D2A、CLK、D1和D2为MIPI信号主路,CLKB、D1B和D2B为MIPI信号支路,MIPI发送接口A通过MIPI信号主路发送至MIPI接收接口,此时MIPI主路信号上会叠加MIPI支路走线反射的信号,导致MIPI接收接口的信号眼图变差(例如,如图3a所示,为未设置电阻模块时摄像头A的信号眼图),电阻模块14的作用是减小支路走线的反射大小,改善MIPI接收接口位置的眼图,如图3b所示,为设置电阻模块时摄像头A的信号眼图。当摄像头A的MIPI速率较高,MIPI支路走线较长时,在电阻模块14的作用下,MIPI接收接口位置的信号眼图仍可以满足标准要求。
当摄像头B工作时,摄像头A处于待机或断电状态,此时CLKB、D1B、D2B、CLK、D1和D2为MIPI信号主路,CLKA、D1A和D2A为MIPI信号支路,MIPI发送接口B通过MIPI信号主路发送至MIPI接收接口,此时MIPI主路信号上会叠加MIPI支路走线反射回来的信号,导致MIPI接收接口的信号眼图变差。其中,摄像头B可采用低像素摄像头,MIPI速率低,支路走线较短,信号反射较小,由如图3c所示的为摄像头B的信号眼图可知,在MIPI主路上串联电阻24后MIPI接收接口位置的信号眼图仍可以满足标准要求;
需要说明的是,在上述M等于N的情况下,上述摄像头A和摄像头B还可以包括其他数量的信号端,例如,在此列举如下方式一和方式二进行说明:
方式一中,摄像头A的MIPI发送接口A包括时钟信号端和1个数据信号端(M=2),且摄像头B的MIPI发送接口B包括时钟信号端和1个数据信号端(N=2),此时,电阻模块包括3个电阻24,以及处理器10的MIPI接收端口包括时钟信号端和1个数据信号端;
方式二中,摄像头A的MIPI发送接口A包括时钟信号端和4个数据信号端(M=5),且摄像头B的MIPI发送接口B包括时钟信号端和4个数据信号端(N=5),此时,电阻模块包括5个电阻24,,以及处理器10的MIPI接收端口包括时钟信号端和4个数据信号端,即如图4所示。
当然,上述第一信号端211和第二信号端221的数量可以不相同,即上述M大于上述N,例如,在此列举如下方式三至方式五进行说明:
方式三中,摄像头A的MIPI发送接口A包括时钟信号端和2个数据信号端(M=3),且摄像头B的MIPI发送接口B包括时钟信号端和1个数据信号端(N=2),此时,电阻模块包括2个电阻24,以及处理器10的MIPI接收端口包括时钟信号端和2个数据信号端;

需要说明的是,上述摄像模组除设置有上述第一摄像头21和第二摄像头22之外,还可以设置其他摄像头,例如,还可以设置一与第一摄像头21同时工作的摄像头,等等。
在一些实施方式中,M个第一信号端211包括第一时钟信号端,且N条连接线路23包括连接第一时钟信号端的第三连接线路23;N个第二信号端221包括第二时钟信号端,且第二时钟信号端通过第二电阻24与第三连接线路23连接;摄像模组还包括设置有K个第三信号端的第三摄像头,且K个第三信号端中的第三时钟信号与第三连接线路23连接;除第三时钟信号之外的K-1个第三信号端分别连接第一信号端211与处理器10之间的连接线路23,且至少一个第三信号端分别通过电阻24与对应的连接线路23连接,K为正整数,从而在摄像模组设置有两个以上的摄像头的情况下,可以降低第 一摄像头21传输信号时的反射,提升第一摄像头21的拍摄质量。
需要说明的是,第三信号端连接的连接线路23与第二信号端221连接的连接线路23可以相同,也可以不同;另外,第三摄像头与第一摄像头21、第二摄像头22之间的工作原理,类似于第一摄像头21与第二摄像头22之间的工作原理,对此不再进行赘述。
