If you know about newer versions of full datasheets or can share them for different camera types don't hesitate to make a PR.

HiSilicon SDK naming principles:

Hi35xxVxxxRxxxCxxSPCxxy

Each field is explained as follows:

  • Hi35xx, segment contains chip type

  • Vxxx segment contains the type of chip version

  • Rxxx segment contains the release package type:

    • R001: Linux SDK

    • R002: Huawei LiteOS SDK

    • R003: Linux RDK reference design

    • other R bit is not used

  • Cxx segment contains compiler specific environment

    • C00: FPGA-based

    • C01: type A compiler (e.g. uclibc based sysroot)

    • C02: type B compiler (e.g. glibc based sysroot)

    • C03 and C04 are reserved

    • C05: Huawei LiteOS

    • C09: based on Demo version

  • SPCxxy segment shows current version

    xx for each next release will be incremented by 1 (releases with fixed errors, additional features, etc)

    xx0 indicates normal version, for temporary versions last character could be incremented by 1 in range from 1-9 and A-z.
