+Test points and 0R resistors for camera interface
+
+
+We should allow for experimentation with the camera interface. The
+24xx/64xx camera interface would be the obvious choice of interface to
+connect a camera to, but a few details need verification:
+
+The SC32442B manual specifies a short VSYNC pulse (high) between lines. 
+Several camera modules instead keep VSYNC high during lines. It is not clear
+from the manual if simply inverting VSYNC polarity is enough to make it
+work.
+
+The SC32442B manual isn't quite clear on how to receive e.g. JPEG compressed
+data as offered by some cameras. E.g. will we need a separate VSYNC
+interrupt pin to deal with variable frame data lengths?
+
+The change is to route unused pins to test points and insert 0R into the
+rest.
+
+Impact: Little if any. The signals currently at the camera port are less
+than 1 Hz or not used at all.
