From the project
Open source Raspberry Pi 5 compatible Micro Four Thirds camera module based on IMX294
FourThirdsEye captures 10.7 Mpix images and 4K (4096 x 2160) videos with improved low-light performance and dynamic range (4.63 um pixel size). It's perfect for photography enthusiasts, developers, and makers who want to level up their Raspberry Pi projects with a powerful camera.
As for the PCB board design, the goal is to make a miniaturized camera board, but because of that I have to use smaller via sizes (0.2mm) and via-in-pad for the decoupling capacitors. There is also a bunch of tiny common mode CSI-2 filter that it might be hard for hand soldering so PCBA services or stencil + paste…
