Miniature 0.3 Mega Pixels Serial JPEG Camera with NTSC Video
SC03MPE User Manual, Rev. D
For latest user manual, please visit: www.jpegcamera.com
General Description
The SC03MPE module performs as a video camera or a JPEG compressed still camera and can be attached to
a wireless or PDA host. Users can send out a snapshot command from the host in order to capture a full
resolution single-frame still picture. The picture is then compressed by the JPEG engine and transferred to the
host.
Features
• Small in size, 20x28mm
• VGA resolution, down sample to QVGA (640 x 480)
• Low power consumption, 5V operation
• UART interface support up to 115200 bps (default 115200 bps)
• Built-in JPEG CODEC
• Built-in lens, optional
• User-friendly command
