INTRODUCTION:
7
 
8
The SE401 chip is the used in low-cost usb webcams.
9
It is produced by Endpoints Inc. (www.endpoints.com).
10
It interfaces directly to a cmos image sensor and USB. The only other major
11
part in a se401 based camera is a dram chip.

MODULE OPTIONS:
33
 
34
When the driver is compiled as a module you can also use the 'flickerless'
35
option. With it exposure is limited to values that do not interfere with the
36
net frequency. Valid options for this option are 0, 50 and 60. (0=disable,
37
50=50hz, 60=60hz)

KNOWN PROBLEMS:
41
 
42
The driver works fine with the usb-ohci and uhci host controller drivers,
43
the default settings also work with usb-uhci. But sending more then one bulk
44
transfer at a time with usb-uhci doesn't work yet.
45
Users of usb-ohci and uhci can safely enlarge SE401_NUMSBUF in se401.h in
46
order to increase the throughput (and thus framerate).
