Description

The Raspberry Pi 5 introduces two four-lane MIPI connectors, engineered to support either a camera or a display. These new connectors utilize a compact 22-way, 0.5mm-pitch “mini” FPC format, differing from the 15-way, 1mm-pitch “standard” format found on previous Raspberry Pi camera and display products. Consequently, adapter cables are essential to bridge this format difference.

This official 200mm camera FPC cable is specifically designed by Raspberry Pi to address this requirement. It acts as a crucial link, enabling users to seamlessly connect their existing 15-way Raspberry Pi camera modules to the high-performance MIPI CSI-2 interfaces on the Raspberry Pi 5. Its 200mm length offers a practical solution for integrating cameras into enclosures or projects.

It is important to note that this cable is dedicated for camera use only. The design and pinout are optimized for camera signals, and it should not be interchanged with display-specific FPC cables to ensure proper functionality and prevent potential damage to connected hardware.

Key Features

  • Official Raspberry Pi accessory, guaranteeing full compatibility and reliability with Raspberry Pi 5.
  • Specifically engineered for Raspberry Pi 5's dual four-lane MIPI CSI-2 connectors.
  • Adapts the new 22-way, 0.5mm-pitch "mini" FPC format to the standard 15-way, 1mm-pitch FPC.
  • Enables direct connection of legacy Raspberry Pi camera modules (e.g., Camera Module 3) to Raspberry Pi 5.
  • Optimized exclusively for camera applications; not interchangeable with display FPC cables due to pinout differences.
  • Provides a functional 200mm length, suitable for a range of embedded vision projects and setups.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why is a special FPC cable needed for Raspberry Pi 5 cameras?

The Raspberry Pi 5 utilizes new 22-way, 0.5mm-pitch mini FPC connectors for its MIPI interfaces, which differ from the 15-way, 1mm-pitch standard connectors on previous models. This adapter cable bridges the physical and electrical connection gap, allowing existing camera modules to work.

Can this camera FPC cable be used to connect a display to Raspberry Pi 5?

No, this cable is specifically designed for camera modules and should not be used for displays. Raspberry Pi provides separate display-specific FPC adapter cables, as the pin assignments and electrical characteristics differ between camera and display interfaces on the Pi 5's MIPI ports.

What type of Raspberry Pi camera modules are compatible with this cable?

This cable is compatible with standard Raspberry Pi camera modules that use the 15-way, 1mm-pitch FPC connector. This includes models like the Raspberry Pi Camera Module 3, Raspberry Pi High Quality Camera, and other legacy official camera modules when used with the Raspberry Pi 5.

Are there different lengths available for this camera FPC cable?

Yes, Raspberry Pi offers these mini-to-standard adapter cables in various lengths. This particular product is the 200mm version, providing a moderate length for connecting camera modules. Other common lengths include 300mm and 500mm, available separately, to suit diverse project requirements.
