Integrated Camera |
The Integrated cameraAlmost 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. The 4pin connector usually carries two USB data lines and two lines 3.3V power.

Camera modules
Some modules are made or designed by Chicony.
===perfect rectangle, 5 pin connector
perfect rectangular board except a screw hole extending to one side, 10 pin connector
- R61, R61i, R400, R500, T61 (widescreen models only), T400, T500???
- FRU 42T3106
- Xenon(?) controller, 1.3MP
small rectange with two extensions, one of them has the/a screw hole
- the only board I’ve seen with a half-circle cut-out in the middle, above the cut-out a little hole
- camera chip on one side next to the screw hole
- has a heat spreader of same size and shape below the module
- X300, X301
- FRU 42T3564
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 placed screw holes, one of them in the middle of the board, 4 pin connector
- comes with a metal retaining bracket, which has 3 screw holes
- board is not overly long
- straight edges, but the board is not one rectangle
- X200, X200s, X201
- W700, W700ds, W701, W701ds
- FRU 42W8015
- Ricoh R5U875
- FRU 45N2795
- Ricoh R5U877
rectangle with another rectangular extension, USB-connected
- the shape(!) reminds of a fat USB-memory stick
- looks like having 4 screw holes (2 on one side, one on the other, the last in the “middle”)
- E431, E430, T520, W520, Template:T530I, X220, Template:X220T, Template:X230I, Template:X230T
- FRU 04W1364
- Ricoh R5U8710
two screw holes of different size on one side, another half-open screw hole on the other side, 4 pin connector
- connector looks to the side
- connector is on the side with the open screw hole
- T410, T410i, T410s, T410si, T510, T510i, W510
- FRU 60Y9402
- Ricoh R5U877
one big screw hole on each side, long board, narrower in the middle, 10 pin connector
five (or six) sections of different width aligned on one side
- relatively long
- at least two screw holes
- camera chip is more in the middle
- Template:T420S, Template:T420I, T420, Template:T430S, T430,
board is long and covered in foil or plastic or something copper colored

- 0.3MP
- 1.3MP
- 2.0MP
