6INTRODUCTION:
7
8STMicroelectronics produces the STV0680B chip, which comes in two
9types, -001 and -003. The -003 version allows the recording and downloading
10of sound clips from the camera, and allows a flash attachment. Otherwise,
11it uses the same commands as the -001 version. Both versions support a
12variety of SDRAM sizes and sensors, allowing for a maximum of 26 VGA or 20
13CIF pictures. The STV0680 supports either a serial or a usb interface, and
14video is possible through the usb interface.

16The following cameras are known to work with this driver, although any
17camera with Vendor/Product codes of 0553/0202 should work:
18
19Aiptek Pencam (various models)
20Nisis QuickPix 2
21Radio Shack 'Kid's digital camera' (#60-1207)
22At least one Trust Spycam model
23Several other European brand models

25WHAT YOU NEED:
26
27- USB support
28- VIDEO4LINUX support

34MODULE OPTIONS:
35
36When the driver is compiled as a module, you can set a "swapRGB=1"
37option, if necessary, for those applications that require it
38(such as xawtv). However, the driver should detect and set this
39automatically, so this option should not normally be used.

42KNOWN PROBLEMS:
43
44The driver seems to work better with the usb-ohci than the usb-uhci host
45controller driver.
