General Description
single-chip camera CMOS active-pixel digital image
sensor. This device combines the MT9V012 image sen-
sor core with fourth-generation digital image flow pro-
cessor technology from Micron Imaging. It captures
high-quality color images at VGA resolution.
ity—Micron’ s breakthrough low-noise CMOS imaging
technology that achieves CCD image quality (based on
signal-to-noise ratio and low-light sensitivity) while
maintaining the inherent size, cost, and integration
advantages of CMOS.
tion designed specifically to meet the low-power, low-
cost demands of battery-powered products such as
cellular phones, PDAs, and toys. It incorporates
sophisticated camera functions on-chip and is pro-
grammable through a simple two-wire serial interface.
functions including color recovery, color correction,
sharpening, programmable gamma correction, auto
black reference clamping, auto exposure, automatic
50Hz/60Hz flicker avoidance, lens shading correction,
auto white balance (AWB), and on-the-fly defect iden-
tification and correction. Additional features include
day/night mode configurations; special camera effects
such as sepia tone and solarization; and interpolation
to arbitrary image size with continuous filtered zoom
and pan. The device supports both Xenon and LED-
type flash light sources in several snapshot modes.
gressive-scan images up to 30 frames per second (fps).
The image data can be output in any one of six 8-bit
formats:
output on dedicated balls, along with a pixel clock that
is synchronous with valid data.

and an image flow processor (IFP). The IFP is divided
in two sections: the colorpipe (CP), and the camera
controller (CC). The sensor core captures raw Bayer-
encoded images that are then input in the IFP . The CP
section of the IFP processes the incoming stream to
create interpolated, color-corrected output, and the
CC section controls the sensor core to maintain the
desired exposure and color balance, and to support
snapshot modes. The sensor core, CP , and CC registers
are grouped in three separate address spaces, shown
in Figure 2. When accessing internal registers via the
two-wire serial interface, select the desired address
space by programming the R240 register.

Y CbCr, RGB, raw Bayer (unprocessed, directly from the
sensor), and processed Bayer (Bayer format data
