Integrated Camera

The Integrated camera

Almost all recent ThinkPads have an integrated camera above the display. This camera (typically called a webcam) is USB attached. On some earlier ThinkPads a proprietary camera was used, but later models use a standard UVC camera which is supported by the uvcvideo driver.

Because of their location above the display the cameras all share a long and thin board layout. But the exact shape varies. Often several models share the exact same form factor, but with different resolutions. DIY upgraders can sometimes use higher resolution cameras from later models or cheaper camera modules from earlier’s.

Also their connector varies.

ThinkPads which may have a proprietary camera

These ThinkPads have a 0.3MP fixed focus Sonix SN9C201 camera which is supported by the gspca_sn9c20x driver.

ThinkPads which may have a UVC camera

The video interface controllers recorded here so far are:

  • Xenon or Xinon or sth.
  • Ricoh R5U875: VGA (640×480 0.3MP) @30fps and both SXGA (1280×1024 1.3MP), UXGA (1600×1200 1.9MP) @15fps
  • Ricoh R5U877: VGA (640×480 0.3MP), UXGA (1600×1200 1.9MP) @30fps and QXGA (2048×1536 3.1MP) @15fps. Has an Image Signal Processor.
    • USB id: 17ef:480d (Lenovo Integrated Webcam [R5U877])


perfect rectangular board except a screw hole extending to one side, 10 pin connector

3.5 screw holes (but it’s fixed with double sided tape?), 4 pin connector

  • it’s “half” screw hole lets the whole board look like a hook
  • X200 Tablet, X201 Tablet
  • probably available with 1.3 and 2.0MP
    • FRU 60Y5750 is one of them

2 diagonally screw holes, one more in the middle of the board, 4 pin connector

  • comes with a metal retaining bracket, which has 3 screw holes
  • X200, X200s, X201
  • FRU 42W8015
    • Ricoh R5U875
  • FRU 45N2795
    • Ricoh R5U877

of unknown shape and connection
