DESCRIPTION
The PYTHON 300, PYTHON 500, and PYTHON 1300
image sensors utilize high sensitivity 4.8 mm x 4.8 mm pixels
that support low noise “pipelined” and “triggered” global
shutter readout modes. The sensors support correlated
double sampling (CDS) readout, reducing noise and
increasing dynamic range.
The image sensors have onchip programmable gain
amplifiers and 10bit A/D converters. The integration time
and gain parameters can be reconfigured without any visible
image artifact. Optionally the onchip automatic exposure
control loop (AEC) controls these parameters dynamically.
The image’s black level is either calibrated automatically or
can be adjusted by adding a user programmable offset.
A high level of programmability using a four wire serial
peripheral interface enables the user to read out specific
regions of interest. Up to eight regions can be programmed,
achieving even higher frame rates.
The image data interface of the P1SN/SE/FN devices
consists of four LVDS lanes, enabling frame rates up to 210
frames per second in Zero ROT mode for the
PYTHON 1300. Each channel runs at 720 Mbps. A separate
synchronization channel containing payload information is
provided to facilitate the image reconstruction at the
receiving end. The P2SN/SE devices provide a parallel
CMOS output interface at reduced frame rate. The
P3SN/SE/FN devices are the same as the P1SN/SE/FN
but with only two of the four LVDS data channels enabled,
facilitating frame rates of 90 frames per second in Normal
ROT for the PYTHON 1300.

Stresses exceeding those listed in the Maximum Ratings table may damage the device. If any of these limits are exceeded, device functionality
should not be assumed, damage may occur and reliability may be affected.
1. The ADC is 11bit, downscaled to 10bit. The PYTHON uses a larger wordlength internally to provide 10bit on the output.
2. Operating ratings are conditions in which operation of the device is intended to be functional.
3. ON Semiconductor recommends that customers become familiar with, and follow the procedures in JEDEC Standard JESD625A. Refer
to Application Note AN52561. Long term exposure toward the maximum storage temperature will accelerate color filter degradation.
4. Caution needs to be taken to avoid dried stains on the underside of the glass due to condensation. The glass lid glue is permeable and can
absorb moisture if the sensor is placed in a high % RH environment.

Ray Angle and Microlens Array Information
An array of microlenses is placed over the CMOS pixel
array in order to improve the absolute responsivity of the
photodiodes. The combined microlens array and pixel array
has two important properties:
1. Angular dependency of photoresponse of a pixel
The photoresponse of a pixel with microlens in the center
of the array to a fixed optical power with varied incidence
angle is as plotted in Figure 5, where definitions of angles fx
and fy are as described by Figure 6.
2. Microlens shift across array and CRA
The microlens array is fabricated with a slightly smaller
pitch than the array of photodiodes. This difference in pitch
creates a varying degree of shift of a pixel’s microlens with
regards to its photodiode. A shift in microlens position
versus photodiode position will cause a tilted angle of peak
photoresponse, here denoted Chief Ray Angle (CRA).
Microlenses and photodiodes are aligned with 0 shift and
CRA in the center of the array, while the shift and CRA
increases radially towards its edges, as illustrated by
Figure 7.
The purpose of the shifted microlenses is to improve the
uniformity of photoresponse when camera lenses with a
finite exit pupil distance are used. The CRA varies nearly
linearly with distance from the center as illustrated in Figure
8, with a corner CRA of approximately 2.7 degrees. This
edge CRA is matching a lens with exit pupil distance of
80 mm.

The center axes of the microlens and the photodiode coincide for the center pixels. For the edge pixels,
there is a shift between the axes of the microlens and the photodiode causing a Peak Response Incidence
Angle (CRA) that deviates from the normal of the pixel array.

The PYTHON 1300 pixel array contains 1280 (H) x
1024 (V) readable pixels with a pixel pitch of 4.8 mm. The
PYTHON 300 and PYTHON 500 image arrays contain
672 (H) x 512 (V) and 832 (H) x 632 (V) readable pixels
respectively, inclusive of 16 pixel rows and 16 pixel
columns at every side to allow for reprocessing or color
reconstruction. The sensors use inpixel CDS architecture,
which makes it possible to achieve a low noise read out of
the pixel array in global shutter mode with CDS.
The function of the row drivers is to access the image array
line by line, or all lines together, to reset or read the pixel
data. The row drivers are controlled by the onchip
sequencer and can access the pixel array.
The pixel biasing block guarantees that the data on a pixel
is transferred properly to the column multiplexer when the
row drivers select a pixel line for readout.
Phase Locked Loop
The PLL accepts a (low speed) clock and generates the
required high speed clock. Optionally this PLL can be
bypassed. Typical input clock frequency is 72 MHz.
LVDS Clock Receiver
The LVDS clock receiver receives an LVDS clock signal
and distributes the required clocks to the sensor.
Typical input clock frequency is 360 MHz in 10bit mode
and 288 MHz in 8bit mode. The clock input needs to be
terminated with a 100 W resistor.
Column Multiplexer
All pixels of one image row are stored in the column
sampleandhold (S/H) stages. These stages store both the
reset and integrated signal levels.
The data stored in the column S/H stages is read out
through 8 parallel differential outputs operating at a
frequency of 36 MHz. At this stage, the reset signal and
integrated signal values are transferred into an
FPNcorrected differential signal. A programmable gain of
1x, 2x, or 4x can be applied to the signal. The column
NOIP1SN1300A
www.onsemi.com
12
multiplexer also supports read1skip1 and
read2skip2 mode. Enabling this mode increases the
frame rate, with a decrease in resolution.
Bias Generator
The bias generator generates all required reference
voltages and bias currents used on chip. An external resistor
of 47 kW, connected between pin IBIAS_MASTER and
gnd_33, is required for the bias generator to operate
properly.
Analog Front End
The AFE contains 8 channels, each containing a PGA and
a 10bit ADC.
For each of the 8 channels, a pipelined 10bit ADC is used
to convert the analog image data into a digital signal, which
is delivered to the data formatting block. A black calibration
loop is implemented to ensure that the black level is mapped
to match the correct ADC input level.
Data Formatting
The data block receives data from two ADCs and
multiplexes this data to one data stream. A cyclic
redundancy check (CRC) code is calculated on the passing
data.
A frame synchronization data block transmits
synchronization codes such as frame start, line start, frame
end, and line end indications.
The data block calculates a CRC once per line for every
channel. This CRC code can be used for error detection at the
receiving end.
Serializer and LVDS Interface (P1SN/SE/FN,
P3SN/SE/FN only)
The serializer and LVDS interface block receives the
formatted (10bit or 8bit) data from the data formatting
block. This data is serialized and transmitted by the LVDS
288 MHz output driver.
In 10bit mode, the maximum output data rate is
720 Mbps per channel. In 8bit mode, the maximum output
data rate is 576 Mbps per channel.
In addition to the LVDS data outputs, two extra LVDS
outputs are available. One of these outputs carries the output
clock, which is skew aligned to the output data channels. The
second LVDS output contains frame format synchronization
codes to serve systemlevel image reconstruction.
Output MUX (P2SN/SE)
The output MUX multiplexes the four data channels to
one channel and transmits the data words using a 10bit
parallel CMOS interface.
Frame synchronization information is communicated by
means of frame and line valid strobes.
Channel Multiplexer
The P1SN/SE/FN LVDS channel multiplexer provides
a 4:2 and 4:1 feature, in addition to utilizing all 4 output
channels.
The P3 SN/SE/FN LVDS channel multiplexer provides
a 2:1 feature, in addition to utilizing both the output
channels.
Sequencer
The sequencer:
Controls the image core. Starts and stops integration
and control pixel readout.
Operates the sensor in master or slave mode.
Applies the window settings. Organizes readouts so that
only the configured windows are read.
Controls the column multiplexer and analog core.
Applies gain settings and subsampling modes at the
correct time, without corrupting image data.
Starts up the sensor correctly when leaving standby
mode.
Automatic Exposure Control
The AEC block implements a control system to modulate
the exposure of an image. Both integration time and gains
are controlled by this block to target a predefined
illumination level.

OPERATING MODES
Global Shutter Mode
The PYTHON 300, PYTHON 500, and PYTHON 1300
operate in pipelined or triggered global shuttering modes. In
this mode, light integration, light integration takes place on
all pixels in parallel, although subsequent readout is
sequential. Figure 11 shows the integration and readout
sequence for the global shutter. All pixels are light sensitive
at the same period of time. The whole pixel core is reset
simultaneously and after the integration time all pixel values
are sampled together on the storage node inside each pixel.
The pixel core is read out line by line after integration. Note
that the integration and readout can occur in parallel or
sequentially. The integration starts at a certain period,
relative to the frame start.
Figure 11. Global Shutter Operation
Pipelined Global Shutter Mode
In pipelined global shutter mode, the integration and
readout are done in parallel. Images are continuously read
and integration of frame N is ongoing during readout of the
previous frame N1. The readout of every frame starts with
a Frame Overhead Time (FOT), during which the analog
value on the pixel diode is transferred to the pixel memory
element. After the FOT, the sensor is read out line per line
and the readout of each line is preceded by the Row
Overhead Time (ROT). Figure 12 shows the exposure and
readout time line in pipelined global shutter mode.
Master Mode
The PYTHON 300, PYTHON 500, and PYTHON 1300
operate in pipelined or triggered global shuttering modes. In
this mode, light, the integration time is set through the
register interface and the sensor integrates and reads out the
images autonomously. The sensor acquires images without
any user interaction.

Slave Mode
The slave mode adds more manual control to the sensor.
The integration time registers are ignored in this mode and
the integration time is instead controlled by an external pin.
As soon as the control pin is asserted, the pixel array goes out
of reset and integration starts. The integration continues
until the user or system deasserts the external pin. Upon a
falling edge of the trigger input, the image is sampled and the
readout begins. Figure 13 shows the relation between the
external trigger signal and the exposure/readout timing.

FOT FOT
Triggered Global Shutter Mode
In this mode, manual intervention is required to control
both the integration time and the start of readout. After the
integration time, indicated by a user controlled pin, the
image core is read out. After this sequence, the sensor goes
to an idle mode until a new user action is detected.
The three main differences with the pipelined global
shutter mode are:
Upon user action, one single image is read.
Normally, integration and readout are done
sequentially. However, the user can control the sensor
in such a way that two consecutive batches are
overlapping, that is, having concurrent integration and
readout.
Integration and readout is under user control through an
external pin.
This mode requires manual intervention for every frame.
The pixel array is kept in reset state until requested.
The triggered global mode can also be controlled in a
master or in a slave mode.
Master Mode
In this mode, a rising edge on the synchronization pin is
used to trigger the start of integration and readout. The
integration time is defined by a register setting. The sensor
autonomously integrates during this predefined time, after
which the FOT starts and the image array is readout
sequentially. A falling edge on the synchronization pin does
not have any impact on the readout or integration and
subsequent frames are started again for each rising edge.
Figure 14 shows the relation between the external trigger
signal and the exposure/readout timing.
If a rising edge is applied on the external trigger before the
exposure time and FOT of the previous frame is complete,
it is ignored by the sensor.

Slave Mode
Integration time control is identical to the pipelined
shutter slave mode. An external synchronization pin
controls the start of integration. When it is deasserted, the
FOT starts. The analog value on the pixel diode is
transferred to the pixel memory element and the image
readout can start. A request for a new frame is started when
the synchronization pin is asserted again.
NOIP1SN1300A

Normal and Zero Row Overhead Time (ROT) Modes
In pipelined global shutter mode, the integration and
readout are done in parallel. Images are continuously read
out and integration of frame N is ongoing during readout of
the previous frame N1. The readout of every frame starts
with a Frame Overhead Time (FOT), during which the
analog value of the pixel diode is transferred to the pixel
memory element. After the FOT, the sensor is read out line
by line and the readout of each line is preceded by a Row
Overhead Time (ROT) as shown in Figure 15.
In Reduced/Zero ROT operation mode (refer to
Figure 16), the row blanking and kernel readout occur in
parallel. This mode is called reduced ROT as a part of the
ROT is done while the image row is readout. The actual ROT
can thus be longer, however the perceived ROT will be
shorter (‘overhead’ spent per line is reduced). The
integration time and gain parameters can be reconfigured
without any visible image artifact in Normal ROT mode.
Columnlevel offset corrections are required in Zero ROT
mode. Refer to ColumnLevel Image Correction
application note in the PYTHON Developers Guide
AND9362/D available at the Image Sensor Portal.
This operation mode can be used for two reasons:
Reduced total line time.
Lower power due of reduced clockrate.
NOTE: Zero ROT is not supported on P3SN/SE/FN
devices.

Sensor States
Low Power Standby
In low power standby state, all power supplies are on, but
internally every block is disabled. No internal clock is
running (PLL / LVDS clock receiver is disabled).
All register settings are unchanged.
Only a subset of the SPI registers is active for read/write
in order to be able to configure clock settings and leave the
low power standby state. The only SPI registers that should
be touched are the ones required for the ‘Enable Clock
Management’ action described in Enable Clock
Management Part 1 on page NO TAG
Standby (1)
In standby state, the PLL/LVDS clock receiver is running,
but the derived logic clock signal is not enabled.
Standby (2)
In standby state, the derived logic clock signal is running.
All SPI registers are active, meaning that all SPI registers
can be accessed for read or write operations. All other blocks
are disabled.
Idle
In the idle state, all internal blocks are enabled, except the
sequencer block. The sensor is ready to start grabbing
images as soon as the sequencer block is enabled.
Running
In running state, the sensor is enabled and grabbing
images. The sensor can be operated in global master/slave
modes.
User Actions: Power Up Functional Mode Sequences
Power Up Sequence
Figure 18 shows the power up sequence of the sensor. The
figure indicates that the first supply to rampup is the
vdd_18 supply, followed by vdd_33 and vdd_pix
respectively. It is important to comply with the described
sequence. Any other supply ramping sequence may lead to
high current peaks and, as consequence, a failure of the
sensor power up.
The clock input should start running when all supplies are
stabilized. When the clock frequency is stable, the reset_n
signal can be deasserted. After a wait period of 10 ms, the
power up sequence is finished and the first SPI upload can
be initiated.
NOTE: The ‘clock input’ can be the CMOS PLL clock
input (clk_pll), or the LVDS clock input
(lvds_clock_inn/p) in case the PLL is bypassed.

Enable Clock Management
The ‘Enable Clock Management’ action configures the
clock management blocks and activates the clock generation
and distribution circuits in a predefined way. First, a set of
clock settings must be uploaded through the SPI register.
These settings are dependent on the desired operation mode
of the sensor.
The SPI uploads that need to be executed to configure the
sensor for P1SN/SE/FN, P3SN/SE/FN 10bit serial
mode, with the PLL, and all available LVDS channels, as
well as all other supported modes (P1SN/SE/FN 8bit
serial, P2SN/SE 10bit parallel, ...) are available to
customers under NDA at the ON Semiconductor Image
Sensor Portal.
In the serial modes, if the PLL is not used, the LVDS clock
input must be running.
In the P2SN/SE 10bit parallel mode, the PLL is
bypassed. The clk_pll clock is used as sensor clock.
NOIP1SN1300A
www.onsemi.com
18
Use of Phase Locked Loop
If PLL is used, the PLL is started after the upload of the
SPI registers. The PLL requires (dependent on the settings)
some time to generate a stable output clock. A lock detect
circuit detects if the clock is stable. When complete, this is
flagged in a status register.
NOTE: The lock detect status must not be checked for
the P2SN/SE sensor.
Required Register Upload
In this phase, the ‘reserved’ register settings are uploaded
through the SPI register. Different settings are not allowed
and may cause the sensor to malfunction.
Soft Power Up
During the soft power up action, the internal blocks are
enabled and prepared to start processing the image data
stream. This action exists of a set of SPI uploads.
Enable Sequencer
During the ‘Enable Sequenceraction, the frame grabbing
sequencer is enabled. The sensor starts grabbing images in
the configured operation mode. Refer to Sensor States on
page 17.
The ‘Enable Sequencer’ action consists of enabling bit
192[0].
User Actions: Functional Modes to Power Down
Sequences
Disable Sequencer
During the ‘Disable Sequencer’ action, the frame
grabbing sequencer is stopped. The sensor stops grabbing
images and returns to the idle mode.
The ‘Disable Sequencer’ action consists of disabling bit
192[0].
Soft Power Down
During the soft power down action, the internal blocks are
disabled and the sensor is put in standby state to reduce the
current dissipation. This action exists of a set of SPI uploads.
Disable Clock Management
The ‘Disable Clock Management’ action stops the
internal clocking to further decrease the power dissipation.
Power Down Sequence
Figure 19 illustrates the timing diagram of the preferred
power down sequence. It is important that the sensor is in
reset before the clock input stops running. Otherwise, the
internal PLL becomes unstable and the sensor gets into an
unknown state. This can cause high peak currents.
The same applies for the ramp down of the power
supplies. The preferred order to ramp down the supplies is
first vdd_pix, second vdd_33, and finally vdd_18. Any other
sequence can cause high peak currents.
NOTE: The ‘clock input’ can be the CMOS PLL clock
input (clk_pll), or the LVDS clock input
(lvds_clock_inn/p) in case the PLL is bypassed.

Sensor Reconfiguration
During the standby, idle, or running state several sensor
parameters can be reconfigured.
Frame Rate and Exposure Time: Frame rate and
exposure time changes can occur during standby, idle,
and running states by modifying registers 199 to 203.
Refer to page 3032 for more information.
Signal Path Gain: Signal path gain changes can occur
during standby, idle, and running states by modifying
registers 204/205. Refer to page 37 for more
information.
Windowing: Changes with respect to windowing can
occur during standby, idle, and running states. Refer to
Multiple Window Readout on page 26 for more
information.
Subsampling: Changes of the subsampling mode can
occur during standby, idle, and running states by
modifying register 192. Refer to Subsampling on
page 27 for more information.
Shutter Mode: The shutter mode can only be changed
during standby or idle mode by modifying register 192.
Reconfiguring the shutter mode during running state is
not supported.
Sensor Configuration
This device contains multiple configuration registers.
Some of these registers can only be configured while the
sensor is not acquiring images (while register 192[0] = 0),
while others can be configured while the sensor is acquiring
images. For the latter category of registers, it is possible to
distinguish the register set that can cause corrupted images
(limited number of images containing visible artifacts) from
the set of registers that are not causing corrupted images.
These three categories are described here.
Static Readout Parameters
Some registers are only modified when the sensor is not
acquiring images. Reconfiguration of these registers while
images are acquired can cause corrupted frames or even
interrupt the image acquisition. Therefore, it is
recommended to modify these static configurations while
the sequencer is disabled (register 192[0] = 0). The registers
shown in Table 15 should not be reconfigured during image
acquisition. A specific configuration sequence applies for
these registers. Refer to the operation flow and startup
description.

Dynamic Configuration Potentially Causing Image
Artifacts
The category of registers as shown in Table 16 consists of
configurations that do not interrupt the image acquisition
process, but may lead to one or more corrupted images
during and after the reconfiguration. A corrupted image is an
image containing visible artifacts. A typical example of a
corrupted image is an image which is not uniformly
exposed.
The effect is transient in nature and the new configuration
is applied after the transient effect.

Group Addresses Description
Black level configuration 128–129

Reconfiguration of these registers may have an impact on the blacklevel
calibration algorithm. The effect is a transient number of images with incorrect black level com-
pensation.

Incorrect sync codes may be generated during the frame in which these registers are modified.

Dynamic Readout Parameters
It is possible to reconfigure the sensor while it is acquiring
images. Frame related parameters are internally
resynchronized to frame boundaries, such that the modified
parameter does not affect a frame that has already started.
However, there can be restrictions to some registers as
shown in Table 8. Some reconfiguration may lead to one
frame being blanked. This happens when the modification
requires more than one frame to settle. The image is blanked
out and training patterns are transmitted on the data and sync
channels.
Table 8. DYNAMIC READOUT PARAMETERS
Group Addresses Description
Subsampling/binning 192[7]
192[8]
Subsampling or binning is synchronized to a new frame start.
ROI configuration 195
256–303
A ROI switch is only detected when a new window is selected as the active window
(reconfiguration of register 195). reconfiguration of the ROI dimension of the active window does not
lead to a frame blank and can cause a corrupted image.
Exposure
reconfiguration
199203 Exposure reconfiguration does not cause artifact. However, a latency of one frame is observed unless
reg_seq_exposure_sync_mode is set to ‘1’ in triggered global mode (master).
Gain reconfiguration 204 Gains are synchronized at the start of a new frame. Optionally, one frame latency can be incorporated
to align the gain updates to the exposure updates
(refer to register 204[13] gain_lat_comp).
Freezing Active Configurations
Though the readout parameters are synchronized to frame
boundaries, an update of multiple registers can still lead to
a transient effect in the subsequent images, as some
configurations require multiple register uploads. For
example, to reconfigure the exposure time in master global
mode, both the fr_length and exposure registers need to be
updated. Internally, the sensor synchronizes these
configurations to frame boundaries, but it is still possible
that the reconfiguration of multiple registers spans over two
or even more frames. To avoid inconsistent combinations,
freeze the active settings while altering the SPI registers by
disabling synchronization for the corresponding
functionality before reconfiguration. When all registers are
uploaded, reenable the synchronization. The sensors
sequencer then updates its active set of registers and uses
them for the coming frames. The freezing of the active set
of registers can be programmed in the sync_configuration
registers, which can be found at the SPI address 206.
Figure 20 shows a reconfiguration that does not use the
sync_configuration option. As depicted, new SPI
configurations are synchronized to frame boundaries.
Figure 21 shows the usage of the sync_configuration
settings. Before uploading a set of registers, the
corresponding sync_configuration is deasserted. After the
upload is completed, the sync_configuration is asserted
again and the sensor resynchronizes its set of registers to the
coming frame boundaries. As seen in the figure, this ensures
that the uploads performed at the end of frame N+2 and the
start of frame N+3 become active in the same frame (frame
N+4).

Window Configuration
Global Shutter Mode
Up to 8 windows can be defined in global shutter mode
(pipelined or triggered). The windows are defined by
registers 256 to 303. Each window can be activated or
deactivated separately using register 195. It is possible to
reconfigure the inactive windows while the sensor is
acquiring images.
Switching between predefined windows is achieved by
activation of the respective windows. This way a minimum
number of registers need to be uploaded when it is necessary
to switch between two or more sets of windows. As an
example of this, scanning the scene at higher frame rates
using multiple windows and switching to full frame capture
when the object is tracked. Switching between the two
modes only requires an upload of one register.
Black Calibration
The sensor automatically calibrates the black level for
each frame. Therefore, the device generates a configurable
number of electrical black lines at the start of each frame.
The desired black level in the resulting output interface can
be configured and is not necessarily targeted to ‘0’.
Configuring the target to a higher level yields some
information on the left side of the black level distribution,
while the other end of the distribution tail is clipped to ‘0’
when setting the black level target to ‘0’.
The black level is calibrated for the 8 columns contained
in one kernel. This implies 8 black level offsets are generated
and applied to the corresponding columns. Configurable
parameters for the blacklevel algorithm are listed in
Table 19.
Table 10. CONFIGURABLE PARAMETERS FOR BLACK LEVEL ALGORITHM
Address Register Name Description
Black Line Generation
197[7:0] black_lines This register configures the number of black lines that are generated at the start of a frame. At least one
black line must be generated. The maximum number is 255.
Note: When the automatic blacklevel calibration algorithm is enabled, make sure that this register is
configured properly to produce sufficient black pixels for the blacklevel filtering.
The number of black pixels generated per line is dependent on the operation mode and window configu-
rations:
Each black line contains 162 kernels.
197[12:8] gate_first_line A number of black lines are blanked out when a value different from 0 is configured. These blanked out
lines are not used for black calibration. It is recommended to enable this functionality, because the first
line can have a different behavior caused by boundary effects. When enabling, the number of black
lines must be set to at least two in order to have valid black samples for the calibration algorithm.
Black Value Filtering
129[0] auto_blackcal_enable Internal blacklevel calibration functionality is enabled when set to ‘1’. Required black level offset com-
pensation is calculated on the black samples and applied to all image pixels.
When set to ‘0’, the automatic blacklevel calibration functionality is disabled. It is possible to apply an
offset compensation to the image pixels, which is defined by the registers 129[10:1].
Note: Black sample pixels are not compensated; the raw data is sent out to provide
external statistics and, optionally, calibrations.
129[9:1] blackcal_offset Black calibration offset that is added or subtracted to each regular pixel value when auto_blackcal_en-
able is set to ‘0’. The sign of the offset is determined by register 129[10] (blackcal_offset_dec).
Note: All channels use the same offset compensation when automatic black calibration is disabled.
129[10] blackcal_offset_dec Sign of blackcal_offset. If set to ‘0’, the black calibration offset is added to each pixel. If set to ‘1’, the
black calibration offset is subtracted from each pixel.
This register is not used when auto_blackcal_enable is set to ‘1’.

Black Line Generation
128[10:8] black_samples The black samples are lowpass filtered before being used for black level calculation. The more sam-
ples are taken into account, the more accurate the calibration, but more samples require more black
lines, which in turn affects the frame rate.
The effective number of samples taken into account for filtering is 2^ black_samples.
Note: An error is reported by the device if more samples than available are requested (refer to register
136).
Black Level Filtering Monitoring
136 blackcal_error0 An error is reported by the device if there are requests for more samples than are available (each bit
corresponding to one data path). The black level is not compensated correctly if one of the channels
indicates an error. There are three possible methods to overcome this situation and to perform a correct
offset compensation:
Increase the number of black lines such that enough samples are generated at the cost of increas-
ing frame time (refer to register 197).
Relax the black calibration filtering at the cost of less accurate black level determination (refer to
register 128).
Disable automatic black level calibration and provide the offset via SPI register upload. Note that
the black level can drift in function of the temperature. It is thus recommended to perform the offset
calibration periodically to avoid this drift.
NOTE: The maximum number of samples taken into account for black level statistics is half the number of kernels.

Serial Peripheral Interface
The sensor configuration registers are accessed through
an SPI. The SPI consists of four wires:
sck: Serial Clock
ss_n: Active Low Slave Select
mosi: Master Out, Slave In, or Serial Data In
miso: Master In, Slave Out, or Serial Data Out
The SPI is synchronous to the clock provided by the
master (sck) and asynchronous to the sensor’s system clock.
When the master wants to write or read a sensors register,
it selects the chip by pulling down the Slave Select line
(ss_n). When selected, data is sent serially and synchronous
to the SPI clock (sck).
Figure 22 shows the communication protocol for read and
write accesses of the SPI registers. The PYTHON 300,
PYTHON 500, and PYTHON 1300 image sensors use 9bit
addresses and 16bit data words.
Data driven by the system is colored blue in Figure 16,
while data driven by the sensor is colored yellow. The data
in grey indicates highZ periods on the miso interface. Red
markers indicate sampling points for the sensor (mosi
sampling); green markers indicate sampling points for the
system (miso sampling during read operations).
The access sequence is:
3. Select the sensor for read or write by pulling down
the ss_n line.
4. One SPI clock cycle after selecting the sensor, the
9bit data is transferred, most significant bit first.
The sck clock is passed through to the sensor as
indicated in Figure 22. The sensor samples this
data on a rising edge of the sck clock (mosi needs
to be driven by the system on the falling edge of
the sck clock).
5. The tenth bit sent by the master indicates the type
of transfer: high for a write command, low for a
read command.
6. Data transmission:
- For write commands, the master continues
sending the 16bit data, most significant bit first.
- For read commands, the sensor returns the
requested address on the miso pin, most significant
bit first. The miso pin must be sampled by the
system on the falling edge of sck (assuming
nominal system clock frequency and maximum
10 MHz SPI frequency).
7. When data transmission is complete, the system
deselects the sensor one clock period after the last
bit transmission by pulling ss_n high.
Note that the maximum frequency for the SPI interface
scales with the input clock frequency, bit depth and LVDS
output multiplexing as described in Table 5.
Consecutive SPI commands can be issued by leaving at
least two SPI clock periods between two register uploads.
Deselect the chip between the SPI uploads by pulling the
ss_n pin high.

IMAGE SENSOR TIMING AND READOUT
The following sections describe the configurations for
single slope reset mechanism. Dual and triple slope handling
during global shutter operation is similar to the single slope
operation. Extra integration time registers are available.
Global Shutter Mode
Pipelined Global Shutter (Master)
The integration time is controlled by the registers
fr_length[15:0] and exposure[15:0]. The mult_timer
configuration defines the granularity of the registers
reset_length and exposure. It is read as number of system
clock cycles (14.706 ns nominal at 68 MHz) for the
P1SN/SE/FN, P3SN/SE/FN version and 18 MHz cycles
(55.556 ns nominal) for the P2SN/SE version.
The exposure control for (Pipelined) Global Master mode
is depicted in Figure 23.
The pixel values are transferred to the storage node during
FOT, after which all photo diodes are reset. The reset state
remains active for a certain time, defined by the reset_length
and mult_timer registers, as shown in the figure. Note that
meanwhile the image array is read out line by line. After this
reset period, the global photodiode reset condition is
abandoned. This indicates the start of the integration or
exposure time. The length of the exposure time is defined by
the registers exposure and mult_timer.
NOTE: The start of the exposure time is synchronized to
the start of a new line (during ROT) if the
exposure period starts during a frame readout.
As a consequence, the effective time during
which the image core is in a reset state is
extended to the start of a new line.
Make sure that the sum of the reset time and exposure
time exceeds the time required to readout all lines. If
this is not the case, the exposure time is extended until
all (active) lines are read out.
Alternatively, it is possible to specify the frame time
and exposure time. The sensor automatically calculates
the required reset time. This mode is enabled by the
fr_mode register. The frame time is specified in the
register fr_length.

Triggered Global Shutter (Master)
In master triggered global mode, the start of integration
time is controlled by a rising edge on the trigger0 pin. The
exposure or integration time is defined by the registers
exposure and mult_timer, as in the master pipelined global
mode. The fr_length configuration is not used. This
operation is graphically shown in Figure 24.

Notes:
The falling edge on the trigger pin does not have any
impact. Note however the trigger must be asserted for
at least 100 ns.
The start of the exposure time is synchronized to the
start of a new line (during ROT) if the exposure period
starts during a frame readout. As a consequence, the
effective time during which the image core is in a reset
state is extended to the start of a new line.
If the exposure timer expires before the end of readout,
the exposure time is extended until the end of the last
active line.
The trigger pin needs to be kept low during the FOT.
The monitor pins can be used as a feedback to the
FPGA/controller (eg. use monitor0, indicating the very
first line when monitor_select = 0x5 a new trigger can
be initiated after a rising edge on monitor0).
Triggered Global Shutter (Slave)
Exposure or integration time is fully controlled by means
of the trigger pin in slave mode. The registers fr_length,
exposure and mult_timer are ignored by the sensor.
A rising edge on the trigger pin indicates the start of the
exposure time, while a falling edge initiates the transfer to
the pixel storage node and readout of the image array. In
other words, the high time of the trigger pin indicates the
integration time, the period of the trigger pin indicates the
frame time.
The use of the trigger during slave mode is shown in
Figure 25.
Notes:
The registers exposure, fr_length, and mult_timer are
not used in this mode.
The start of exposure time is synchronized to the start
of a new line (during ROT) if the exposure period starts
during a frame readout. As a consequence, the effective
time during which the image core is in a reset state is
extended to the start of a new line.
If the trigger is deasserted before the end of readout,
the exposure time is extended until the end of the last
active line.
The trigger pin needs to be kept low during the FOT.
The monitor pins can be used as a feedback to the
FPGA/controller (eg. use monitor0, indicating the very
first line when monitor_select = 0x5 a new trigger can
be initiated after a rising edge on monitor0).

ADDITIONAL FEATURES
Multiple Window Readout
The PYTHON 300, PYTHON 500, and PYTHON 1300
image sensors support multiple window readout, which
means that only the userselected Regions Of Interest (ROI)
are read out. This allows limiting data output for every
frame, which in turn allows increasing the frame rate. In
global shutter mode, up to eight ROIs can be configured.
Window Configuration
Figure 26 shows the four parameters defining a region of
interest (ROI).
Figure 26. Region of Interest Configuration
y-start
y-end
x-start x-end
ROI 0
xstart[7:0]
xstart defines the xstarting point of the desired window.
The sensor reads out 8 pixels in one single clock cycle. As
a consequence, the granularity for configuring the xstart
position is also 8 pixels for no sub sampling. The value
configured in the xstart register is multiplied by 8 to find
the corresponding column in the pixel array.
xend[7:0]
This register defines the window end point on the xaxis.
Similar to xstart, the granularity for this configuration is
one kernel. xend needs to be larger than xstart.
ystart[9:0]
The starting line of the readout window. The granularity
of this setting is one line, except with color sensors where it
needs to be an even number.
yend[9:0]
The end line of the readout window. yend must be
configured larger than ystart. This setting has the same
granularity as the ystart configuration.
Up to eight windows can be defined, possibly (partially)
overlapping, as illustrated in Figure 27.

The sequencer analyses each line that need to be read out
for multiple windows.
Restrictions
The following restrictions for each line are assumed for
the user configuration:
Windows are ordered from left to right, based on their
xstart address:
x_start_roi(i) x_start_roi(j) ANDv
x_end_roi(i) x_end_roi(j)v
Where j i>
Processing Multiple Windows
The sequencer control block houses two sets of counters
to construct the image frame. As previously described, the
ycounter indicates the line that needs to be read out and is
incremented at the end of each line. For the start of the frame,
it is initialized to the ystart address of the first window and
it runs until the yend address of the last window to be read
out. The last window is configured by the configuration
registers and it is not necessarily window #7.
The xcounter starts counting from the xstart address of
the window with the lowest ID which is active on the
addressed line. Only windows for which the current
yaddress is enclosed are taken into account for scanning.
Other windows are skipped.
NOIP1SN1300A
www.onsemi.com
27
Figure 28 illustrates a practical example of a
configuration with five windows. The current position of the
read pointer (ys) is indicated by a red line crossing the image
array. For this position of the read pointer, three windows
need to be read out. The initial start position for the xkernel
pointer is the xstart configuration of ROI1. Kernels are
scanned up to the ROI3 xend position. From there, the
xpointer jumps to the next window, which is ROI4 in this
illustration. When reaching ROI4’s xend position, the read
pointer is incremented to the next line and xs is reinitialized
to the starting position of ROI1.
Notes:
The starting point for the readout pointer at the start of
a frame is the ystart position of the first active
window.
The read pointer is not necessarily incremented by one,
but depending on the configuration, it can jump in
ydirection. In Figure 28, this is the case when reaching
the end of ROI0 where the read pointer jumps to the
ystart position of ROI1
The xpointer starting position is equal to the xstart
configuration of the first active window on the current
line addressed. This window is not necessarily window
#0.
The xpointer is not necessarily incremented by one
each cycle. At the end of a window it can jump to the
start of the next window.
Each window can be activated separately. There is no
restriction on which window and how many of the 8
windows are active.

Subsampling
Subsampling is used to reduce the image resolution. This
allows increasing the frame rate. Two subsampling modes
are supported: for monochrome and NIR enhanced sensors
(P1SN/FN, P2SN and P3SN/FN) and color sensors
(P1SE / P2SE / P3SE).
Monochrome and NIR Sensors
These sensors utilize the read1skip1 subsampling
scheme. Subsampling occurs both in x and y direction.
Color Sensors
For color sensors, the read2skip2 subsampling
scheme is used. Subsampling occurs both in x and y
direction. Figure 29 shows which pixels are read and which
ones are skipped.
Figure 29. Subsampling Scheme for Monochrome and Color Sensors
NOIP1SN1300A

Binning
Pixel binning is a technique in which different pixels
belonging to a rectangular bin are averaged in the analog
domain. Twobytwo pixel binning is available with the
monochrome and NIR enhanced image sensors (P1SN/FN,
P2SN, P3SN/FN). This implies that two adjacent pixels
are averaged both in column and row. Binning is
configurable using a register setting. Pixel binning is not
supported on PYTHON color option (P1SE / P2SE /
P3SE) and in Zero ROT mode.
NOTES:
1. Register 194[13:12] needs to be configured to 0x0
for 2x2 pixel binning and to 0x1 for 2x1 binning.
Binning occurs only in x direction.
2. Binning in y-direction cannot be used in
combination with pipelined integration and
readout. The integration time and readout time
should be separated in time (do not coincide).
Reverse Readout in Ydirection
Reverse readout in ydirection can be done by toggling
reverse_y (reg 194[8]). The reference for y_start and y_end
pointers is reversed.
Black Reference
The sensor reads out one or more black lines at the start of
every new frame. The number of black lines to be generated
is programmable and is minimal equal to 1. The length of the
black lines depends on the operation mode. The sensor
always reads out the entire line (160 kernels), independent
of window configurations.
The black references are used to perform black calibration
and offset compensation in the data channels. The raw black
pixel data is transmitted over the usual output interface,
while the regular image data is compensated (can be
bypassed).
On the output interface, black lines can be seen as a
separate window, however without Frame Start and Ends
(only Line Start/End). The Sync code following the Line
Start and Line End indications (“window ID”) contains the
active window number, which is 0. Black reference data is
classified by a BL code.
Signal Path Gain
Analog Gain Stages
Referring to Table 12, three gain settings are available in
the analog data path to apply gain to the analog signal before
it is digitized. The gain amplifier can apply a gain of
approximately 1x to 4x to the analog signal.
The moment a gain reconfiguration is applied and
becomes valid can be controlled by the gain_lat_comp
configuration.
With ‘gain_lat_comp’ set to ‘0’, the new gain
configurations are applied from the very next frame.
With ‘gain_lat_comp’ set to ‘1’, the new gain settings are
postponed by one extra frame. This feature is useful when
exposure time and gain are reconfigured together, as an
exposure time update always has one frame latency.

NOTE: The sensor performance specifications are tested at unity gain. Analog gain above 2x affects noise performance. All other gain
settings shown in this table are tested for sensor functionality.
Digital Gain Stage
The digital gain stage allows fine gain adjustments on the
digitized samples. The gain configuration is an absolute 5.7
unsigned number (5 digits before and 7 digits after the
decimal point).

Image Capture
Three main blocks can be distinguished:
The statistics block compares the average of the
current image’s samples to the configured target value
for the average illumination of all pixels
The relative gain change request from the statistics
block is filtered through the AEC Filter block in the
time domain (low pass filter) before being integrated.
The output of the filter is the total requested gain in the
complete signal path.
The enforcer block accepts the total requested gain and
distributes this gain over the integration time and gain
stages (both analog and digital)
The automatic exposure control loop is enabled by asserting
the aec_enable configuration in register 160.
NOTE: Dual and Triple slope integration is not
supported in conjunction with the AEC.
AEC Statistics Block
The statistics block calculates the average illumination of
the current image. Based on the difference between the
calculated illumination and the target illumination the
statistics block requests a relative gain change.
Statistics Subsampling and Windowing
For average calculation, the statistics block will
subsample the current image or windows by taking every
fourth sample into account. Note that only the pixels read out
through the active windows are visible for the AEC. In the
case where multiple windows are active, the samples will be
selected from the total samples. Samples contained in a
region covered by multiple (overlapping) window will be
taking into account only once.
It is possible to define an AEC specific subwindow on
which the AEC will calculate it’s average. For instance, the
sensor can be configured to read out a larger frame, while the
illumination is measured on a smaller region of interest, e.g.
center weighted as shown in Table 13.
Table 13. AEC SAMPLE SELECTION
Register Name Description

When 0x1, the AEC samples are selected from the active pixels contained in the region of interest defined
by roi_aec
253255 roi_aec These registers define a window from which the AEC samples will be selected when roi_aec_enable is
asserted. Configuration is similar to the regular region of interests.
The intersection of this window with the active windows define the selected pixels. It is important that this
window at least overlaps with one or more active windows.
NOIP1SN1300A

Target Illumination
The target illumination value is configured by means of
register desired_intensity as shown in Table 14.

Target intensity value, on 10bit scale.

Color Sensor
The weight of each color can be configured for color
sensors by means of scale factors. Note these scale factor are
only used to calculate the statistics in order to compensate
for (offchip) white balancing and/or color matrices. The
pixel values itself are not modified.
The scale factors are configured as 3.7 unsigned numbers
(0x80 = unity). Refer to Table 15 for color scale factors. For
mono sensors, configure these factors to their default value.

AEC Filter Block
The filter block lowpass filters the gain change requests
received from the statistics block.
The filter can be restarted by asserting the restart_filter
configuration of register 160.
AEC Enforcer Block
The enforcer block calculates the four different gain
parameters, based on the required total gain, thereby
respecting a specific hierarchy in those configurations.
Some (digital) hysteresis is added so that the (analog) sensor
settings don’t need to change too often.
Exposure Control Parameters
The several gain parameters are described below, in the
order in which these are controlled by the AEC for large
adjustments. Small adjustments are regulated by digital gain
only.
Exposure Time
The exposure is the time between the global image array
reset deassertion and the pixel charge transfer. The
granularity of the integration time steps is configured by the
mult_timer register.
NOTE: The exposure_time register is ignored when the
AEC is enabled. The register fr_length defines
the frame time and needs to be configured
accordingly.
Analog Gain
The sensor has two analog gain stages, configurable
independently from each other. Typically the AEC shall only
regulate the first stage.
Digital Gain
The last gain stage is a gain applied on the digitized
samples. The digital gain is represented by a 5.7 unsigned
number (i.e. 7 bits after the decimal point). While the analog
gain steps are coarse, the digital gain stage makes it possible
to achieve very fine adjustments.

AEC Control Range

registers.

AEC Update Frequency
As an integration time update has a latency of one frame,
the exposure control parameters are evaluated and updated
every other frame.
Note: The gain update latency must be postpone to match
the integration time latency. This is done by asserting the
gain_lat_comp register on address 204[13].
Exposure Control Status Registers
Configured integration and gain parameters are reported
to the user by means of status registers. The sensor provides
two levels of reporting: the status registers reported in the
AEC address space are updated once the parameters are
recalculated and requested to the internal sequencer. The
status registers residing in the sequencers address space on
the other hand are updated once these parameters are taking
effect on the image readout. Refer to Table 17 reflecting the
AEC and Sequencer Status registers.

Mode Changes and Frame Blanking
Dynamically reconfiguring the sensor may lead to
corrupted or non-uniformilly exposed frames. For some
reconfigurations, the sensor automatically blanks out the
image data during one frame. Frame blanking is
summarized in the following table for the sensors image
related modes.
NOTE: Major mode switching (i.e. switching between
master, triggered or slave mode) must be
performed while the sequencer is disabled
(reg_seq_enable = 0x0).

Temperature Sensor
The PYTHON 300, PYTHON 500, and PYTHON 1300
image sensors have an onchip temperature sensor which
returns a digital code (Tsensor) of the silicon junction
temperature. The Tsensor output is a 8bit digital count
between 0 and 255, proportional to the temperature of the
silicon substrate. This reading can be translated directly to
a temperature reading in °C by calibrating the 8bit readout
at 0°C and 85°C to achieve an output accuracy of ±2°C. The
Tsensor output can also be calibrated using a single
temperature point (example: room temperature or the
ambient temperature of the application), to achieve an
output accuracy of ±5°C.
Note that any process variation will result in an offset in
the bit count and that offset will remain within ±5°C over the
temperature range of 0°C and 85°C. Tsensor output digital
code can be read out through the SPI interface.
Output of the temperature sensor to the SPI:
tempd_reg_temp<7:0>: This is the 8bit N count readout
proportional to temperature.
Input from the SPI:
The reg_tempd_enable is a global enable and this enables
or disables the temperature sensor when logic high or logic
low respectively. The temperature sensor is reset or disabled
when the input reg_tempd_enable is set to a digital low state.
Calibration using one temperature point
The temperature sensor resolution is fixed for a given type
of package for the operating range of 0°C to +85°C and
hence devices can be calibrated at any ambient temperature
of the application, with the device configured in the mode of
operation.
Interpreting the actual temperature for the digital code
readout:
The formula used is
TJ = R (Nread Ncalib) + Tcalib
TJ = junction die temperature
R = resolution in degrees/LSB (typical 0.75 deg/LSB)
Nread = Tsensor output (LSB count between 0 and 255)
Tcalib = Tsensor calibration temperature
Ncalib = Tsensor output reading at Tcalib
Monitor Pins
The internal sequencer has two monitor outputs (Pin 44
and Pin 45) that can be used to communicate the internal
states from the sequencer. A threebit register configures the
assignment of the pins as shown in Table 19.

DATA OUTPUT FORMAT
The PYTHON 300, PYTHON 500, and PYTHON 1300
image sensors are available in two LVDS output
configuration, P1 and P3.
The P1 configuration utilizes four LVDS output channels
together with an LVDS clock output and an LVDS
synchronization output channel.
The P3 configuration consists of two LVDS output
channels together with an LVDS clock output and an LVDS
synchronization output channel.
The PYTHON 1300 is also available in a CMOS output
configuration P2, which includes a 10bit parallel CMOS
output together with a CMOS clock output and ‘frame valid’
and ‘line valid’ CMOS output signals.
P1SN/SE/FN, P3SN/SE/FN: LVDS Interface Version
LVDS Output Channels
The image data output occurs through four LVDS data
channels where a synchronization LVDS channel and an
LVDS output clock signal synchronizes the data. Referring
to Table 21, the four data channels on the P1 option are used
to output the image data only, while on the P3 option, two
data channel channels are utilized. The sync channel
transmits information about the data sent over these data
channels (includes codes indicating black pixels, normal
pixels, and CRC codes).
8bit / 10bit Mode
The sensor can be used in 8bit or 10bit mode.
In 10bit mode, the words on data and sync channel have
a 10bit length. The output data rate is 720 Mbps.
In 8bit mode, the words on data and sync channel have
an 8bit length, the output data rate is 576 Mbps.
Note that the 8bit mode can only be used to limit the data
rate at the consequence of image data word depth. It is not
supported to operate the sensor in 8bit mode at a higher
clock frequency to achieve higher frame rates.
The P1 option supports 10bit/8bit in ZROT/NROT
mode, while the P3 option supports 10bit NROT mode
only.
Frame Format
The frame format in 8bit mode is identical to the 10bit
mode with the exception that the Sync and data word depth
is reduced to eight bits.
The frame format in 10bit mode is explained by example
of the readout of two (overlapping) windows as shown in
Figure 31(a).
The readout of a frame occurs on a linebyline basis. The
read pointer goes from left to right, bottom to top.
Figure 31 indicates that, after the FOT is completed, the
sensor reads out a number of black lines for black calibration
purposes. After these black lines, the windows are
processed. First a number of lines which only includes
information of ‘ROI 0’ are sent out, starting at position
y0_start. When the line at position y1_start is reached, a
number of lines containing data of ‘ROI 0’ and ‘ROI 1’ are
sent out, until the line position of y0_end is reached. From
there on, only data of ‘ROI 1’ appears on the data output
channels until line position y1_end is reached
During read out of the image data over the data channels,
the sync channel sends out frame synchronization codes
which give information related to the image data that is sent
over the four data output channels.
Each line of a window starts with a Line Start (LS)
indication and ends with a Line End (LE) indication. The
line start of the first line is replaced by a Frame Start (FS);
the line end of the last line is replaced with a Frame End
indication (FE). Each such frame synchronization code is
followed by a window ID (range 0 to 7). For overlapping
windows, the line synchronization codes of the overlapping
windows with lower IDs are not sent out (as shown in the
illustration: no LE/FE is transmitted for the overlapping part
of window 0).
NOTE: In Figure 31, only Frame Start and Frame End
Sync words are indicated in (b). CRC codes are
also omitted from the figure.
For additional information on the
synchronization codes, please refer to
Application Note AND5001.

Frame Synchronization for 10bit Mode
Table 20 shows the structure of the frame synchronization
code. Note that the table shows the default data word
(configurable) for 10bit mode. If more than one window is
active at the same time, the sync channel transmits the frame
synchronization codes of the window with highest index
only.

Window Identification
Frame synchronization codes are always followed by a
3bit window identification (bits 2:0). This is an integer
number, ranging from 0 to 7, indicating the active window.
If more than one window is active for the current cycle, the
highest window ID is transmitted.
Data Classification Codes
For the remaining cycles, the sync channel indicates the
type of data sent through the data links: black pixel data
(BL), image data (IMG), or training pattern (TR). These
codes are programmable by a register setting. The default
values are listed in Table 21.

image).
9:0 125 [9:0] 0x059 CRC value. The data on the data output channels is the CRC code of the finished image
data line.
9:0 126 [9:0] 0x3A6 Training pattern (TR). The sync channel sends out the training pattern which can be
programmed by a register setting.
Frame Synchronization in 8bit Mode
The frame synchronization words are configured using
the same registers as in 10bit mode. The two least
significant bits of these configuration registers are ignored
and not sent out. Table 32 shows the structure of the frame
synchronization code, together with the default value, as
specified in SPI registers. The same restriction for
overlapping windows applies in 8bit mode.

4:0 117 [6:2] 0x0A These bits indicate that the received sync word is a frame synchronization code.
The value is programmable by a register setting.
Window Identification
Similar to 10bit operation mode, the frame
synchronization codes are followed by a window
identification. The window ID is located in bits 4:2 (all other
bit positions are ‘0’). The same restriction for overlapping
windows applies in 8bit mode.
Data Classification Codes
BL, IMG, CRC, and TR codes are defined by the same
registers as in 10bit mode. Bits 9:2 of the respective
configuration registers are used as classification code with
default values shown in Table 23.

Training Patterns on Data Channels
In 10bit mode, during idle periods, the data channels
transmit training patterns, indicated on the sync channel by
a TR code. These training patterns are configurable
independent of the training code on the sync channel as
shown in Table 24.

which can be programmed by a register setting. The default value of the training pattern
is 0x3A6, which is identical to the training pattern indication code on the sync channel.
In 8bit mode, the training pattern for the data channels is
defined by the same register as in 10bit mode, where the
lower two bits are omitted; see Table 25.

Value Description
[7:0] 116 [9:2] 0xE9 Data Channel Training Pattern (Training pattern).
Cyclic Redundancy Code
At the end of each line, a CRC code is calculated to allow
error detection at the receiving end. Each data channel
transmits a CRC code to protect the data words sent during
the previous cycles. Idle and training patterns are not
included in the calculation.
The sync channel is not protected. A special character
(CRC indication) is transmitted whenever the data channels
send their respective CRC code.
The polynomial in 10bit operation mode is
x10 +x
9+x
6+x
3+x
2+ x + 1. The CRC encoder is seeded
at the start of a new line and updated for every (valid) data
word received. The CRC seed is configurable using the
crc_seed register. When ‘0’, the CRC is seeded by all‘0’;
when ‘1’ it is seeded with all‘1’.
In 8bit mode, the polynomial is x8+x
6+x
3+x
2+1.
The CRC seed is configured by means of the crc_seed
register.
NOTE: The CRC is calculated for every line. This
implies that the CRC code can protect lines from
multiple windows.
LVDS Output Multiplexing
The PYTHON300, PYTHON500 and PYTHON1300
image sensors contain a function for downmultiplexing the
output channels. Using this function, one may for instance
use the device with 2 or 1 data channels instead of 4 data
channels.
Enabling the channel multiplexing is done through
register 32[5:4]. The default value of 0x0 disables all
channel multiplexing. Higher values sets a higher degree of
channel multiplexing. Note that the Sync identification
codes are repeated multiple times depending on the
multiplex factor. The channels that are used per degree of
multiplexing and the number of Sync Code repetitions are
shown in Table 26. The unused data channels are powered
down and will not send any data.

Data Order for P1SN/SE/FN, P3SN/SE/FN: LVDS
Interface Version
To read out the image data through the output channels,
the pixel array is organized in kernels. The kernel size is
eight pixels in xdirection by one pixel in ydirection. The
data order in 8bit mode is identical to the 10bit mode.
Figure 35 indicates how the kernels are organized. The first
kernel (kernel [0, 0]) is located in the bottom left corner. The
data order of this image data on the data output channels
depends on the subsampling mode.

P1SN/FN, P3SN/FN: Subsampling on Monochrome
Sensor
During subsampling on a monochrome sensor, every
other pixel is read out and the lines are read in a
read-1-skip-1 manner. To read out the image data with
subsampling enabled on a monochrome sensor, two
neighboring kernels are combined to a single kernel of
16 pixels in the xdirection and one pixel in the ydirection.
Only the pixels at the even pixel positions inside that kernel
are read out. Note that there is no difference in data order for
even/odd kernel numbers, as opposed to the
‘nosubsampling’ readout.

P2SN/SE: CMOS Interface Version
CMOS Output Signals
The image data output occurs through a single 10bit
parallel CMOS data output, operating at the applied clk_pll
frequency. A CMOS clock output, ‘frame valid’ and ‘line
valid’ signal synchronizes the output data.
No windowing information is sent out by the sensor.
8bit/10bit Mode
The 8bit mode is not supported when using the parallel
CMOS output interface.
Frame Format
Frame timing is indicated by means of two signals:
frame_valid and line_valid.
The frame_valid indication is asserted at the start of a
new frame and remains asserted until the last line of the
frame is completely transmitted.
The line_valid indication serves the following needs:
While the line_valid indication is asserted, the data
channels contain valid pixel data.
The line valid communicates frame timing as it is
asserted at the start of each line and it is deasserted
at the end of the line. Low periods indicate the idle
time between lines (ROT).
The data channels transmit the calculated CRC code
after each line. This can be detected as the data
words right after the falling edge of the line valid.

The frame format is explained with an example of the
readout of two (overlapping) windows as shown in
Figure 46 (a).
The readout of a frame occurs on a linebyline basis. The
read pointer goes from left to right, bottom to top. Figure 46
(a) and (b) indicate that, after the FOT is finished, a number
of lines which include information of ‘ROI 0’ are sent out,
starting at position y0_start. When the line at position
y1_start is reached, a number of lines containing data of
‘ROI 0’ and ‘ROI 1’ are sent out, until the line position of
y0_end is reached. Then, only data of ‘ROI 1’ appears on the
data output until line position y1_end is reached. The
line_valid strobe is not shown in Figure 46.

Black Lines
Black pixel data is also sent through the data channels. To
distinguish these pixels from the regular image data, it is
possible to ‘mute’ the frame and/or line valid indications for
the black lines. Refer to Table 27 for black line, frame_valid
and line_valid settings.
Table 27. BLACK LINE FRAME_VALID AND LINE_VALID SETTINGS
bl_frame
_valid_enable
bl_line
_valid_enable Description
0x1 0x1 The black lines are handled similar to normal image lines. The frame valid indication is asserted
before the first black line and the line valid indication is asserted for every valid (black) pixel.
0x1 0x0 The frame valid indication is asserted before the first black line, but the line valid indication is not
asserted for the black lines. The line valid indication indicates the valid image pixels only. This
mode is useful when one does not use the black pixels and when the frame valid indication needs
to be asserted some time before the first image lines (for example, to precondition ISP pipelines).
0x0 0x1 In this mode, the black pixel data is clearly unambiguously indicated by the line valid indication,
while the decoding of the real image data is simplified.
0x0 0x0 Black lines are not indicated and frame and line valid strobes remain deasserted. Note however
that the data channels contains the black pixel data and CRC codes (Training patterns are
interrupted).

Data order for P2SN/SE: CMOS Interface Version
To read out the image data through the parallel CMOS
output, the pixel array is divided in kernels. The kernel size
is eight pixels in xdirection by one pixel in ydirection.
Figure 35 on page 40 indicates how the kernels are
organized.
The data order of this image data on the data output
channels depends on the subsampling mode.
P2SN/SE: No Subsampling
The image data is read out in kernels of eight pixels in
xdirection by one pixel in ydirection.
Figure 47 shows the pixel sequence of a kernel which is
read out over the single CMOS output channel. The pixel
order is different for even and odd kernel positions.

P2SN: Subsampling On Monochrome Sensor
To read out the image data with subsampling enabled on
a monochrome sensor, two neighboring kernels are
combined to a single kernel of 16 pixels in the xdirection
and one pixel in the ydirection. Only the pixels at the even
pixel positions inside that kernel are read out. Figure 48
shows the data order
Note that there is no difference in data order for even/odd
kernel numbers, as opposed to the ‘nosubsampling’
readout.

P2SE: Subsampling On Color Sensor
To read out the image data with subsampling enabled on
a color sensor, two neighboring kernels are combined to a
single kernel of 16 pixels in the xdirection and one pixel in
the ydirection. Only the pixels 0, 1, 4, 5, 8, 9, 12, and 13 are
read out. Figure 49 shows the data order.
Note that there is no difference in data order for even/odd
kernel numbers, as opposed to the ‘nosubsampling’
readout.

Glass Lid
The PYTHON 300, PYTHON 500, and PYTHON 1300
image sensors use a glass lid without any coatings. Figure 44
shows the transmission characteristics of the glass lid.
As shown in Figure 49, no infrared attenuating color filter
glass is used. Use of an IR cut filter is recommended in the
optical path when color devices are used. (source:
http://www.pgoonline.com).

Protective Foil
For certain size and speed options, the sensor can be
delivered with a protective foil that is intended to be
removed after assembly. The dimensions of the foil are as
illustrated in Figure 56 with the tab aligned towards pin 1 of
the package.
