STV0680 Camera System Defect Specification
and information on correct driver versions.
General
ST CMOS Sensors can contain defects as part of their standard sales specification. The sensor
defect specification, if required, can be found in the appropriate sensor datasheet, however this
specification is not the same as the camera system defect specification.
When an ST CMOS Sensor is used in a STV0680B camera system, a defect correction algorithm in
the camera system will correct the sensor defects so that in the vast majority of cases the user
should not see defects in the final colour image generated by the PC/Mac driver. This chapter
clarifies the defect specification for the overall camera system.
Defect specification
When using the specified Camera System, under the specified Test Conditions:
Appearance of defects under other conditions
During normal camera use (e.g. lensed camera used in a “real situation”), it is possible that defects
may be visible under certain conditions:
Definition of the "Camera System"
All of the following conditions must be met for the defect specification to be applicable to the
"Camera System".
Note that the EVK units STV-DCA/CIF-E01 or -E04 and STV-VGA/VGA-E01 or -E04 both conform
to these conditions, hence have the same defect specification as detailed in
CMOS Imaging Sensor
The defect specification applies to the Camera System if any of the following sensors are used.
1 No Major Visible defects are allowed in the Final Colour Image from a CIF camera (VV6410/
2 No Major Visible defects are allowed in the "Inner area" (within the central 242 x 322 pixels) of
3 Some Minor Visible defects are allowed in the "Outer area" (outside the central 242 x 322
