DESCRIPTION
The MT9P031 sensor can be operated in its default mode
or programmed by the user for frame size, exposure, gain
setting, and other parameters. The default mode outputs a
full resolution image at 14 frames per second (fps).
An onchip analogtodigital converter (ADC) provides
12 bits per pixel. FRAME_VALID (FV) and LINE_VALID
(LV) signals are output on dedicated pins, along with a pixel
clock that is synchronous with valid data.
The MT9P031produces extraordinarily clear, sharp
digital pictures, and its ability to capture both continuous
video and single frames makes it the perfect choice for a
wide range of consumer and industrial applications,
including cell phones, digital still cameras, digital video
cameras, and PC cameras..
FUNCTIONAL OVERVIEW
The MT9P031 is a progressivescan sensor that generates
a stream of pixel data at a constant frame rate. It uses an
onchip, phaselocked loop (PLL) to generate all internal
clocks from a single master input clock running between
6 and 27 MHz. The maximum pixel rate is 96 Mp/s,
corresponding to a clock rate of 96 MHz. Figure 1 illustrates
a block diagram of the sensor.

Interface
User interaction with the sensor is through the twowire
serial bus, which communicates with the array control,
analog signal chain, and digital signal chain. The core of the
sensor is a 5 Mp activepixel array. The timing and control
circuitry sequences through the rows of the array, resetting
and then reading each row in turn. In the time interval
between resetting a row and reading that row, the pixels in
the row integrate incident light. The exposure is controlled
by varying the time interval between reset and readout. Once
a row has been read, the data from the columns is sequenced

through an analog signal chain (providing offset correction
and gain), and then through an ADC. The output from the
ADC is a 12bit value for each pixel in the array. The ADC
output passes through a digital processing signal chain
(which provides further data path corrections and applies
digital gain). The pixel data are output at a rate of up to
96 Mp/s, in addition to frame and line synchronization
signals.

PIXEL DATA FORMAT
Pixel Array Structure
The MT9P031 pixel array consists of a 2752column by
2004row matrix of pixels addressed by column and row.
The address (column 0, row 0) represents the upperright
corner of the entire array, looking at the sensor, as shown in
Figure 4.
The array consists of a 2592column by 1944row active
region in the center representing the default output image,
surrounded by a boundary region (also active), surrounded
by a border of dark pixels (see Table 4 and Table 5). The
boundary region can be used to avoid edge effects when
doing color processing to achieve a 2592 x 1944 result
image, while the optically black column and rows can be
used to monitor the black level.
Pixels are output in a Bayer pattern format consisting of
four “colors”GreenR, GreenB, Red, and Blue (Gr, Gb, R,
B)representing three filter colors. When no mirror modes
are enabled, the first row output alternates between Gr and
R pixels, and the second row output alternates between B
and Gb pixels. The Gr and Gb pixels have the same color
filter, but they are treated as separate colors by the data path
and analog signal chain.

Default Readout Order
By convention, the sensor core pixel array is shown with
pixel (0,0) in the top right corner (see Figure 4). This reflects
the actual layout of the array on the die. Also, the first pixel
data read out of the sensor in default condition is that of pixel
(16, 54).
When the sensor is imaging, the active surface of the
sensor faces the scene as shown in Figure 5. When the image
is read out of the sensor, it is read one row at a time, with the
rows and columns sequenced as shown in Figure 6.

Readout Sequence
Typically, the readout window is set to a region including
only active pixels. The user has the option of reading out
dark regions of the array, but if this is done, consideration
must be given to how the sensor reads the dark regions for
its own purposes.
Rows are read from the array in the following order:
1. Dark rows:
If Show_Dark_Rows is set, or if Manual_BLC is
clear, dark rows on the top of the array are read
out. The set of rows sampled are adjusted based on
the Row_Bin setting such that there are 8 rows
after binning, as shown in the Table 6. The
Row_Skip setting is ignored for the dark row
region.
If Show_Dark_Rows is clear and Manual_BLC is
set, no dark rows are read from the array as part of
this step, allowing all rows to be part of the active
image. This does not change the frame time, as
HDR is included in the vertical blank period.
2. Active image:
The rows defined by the row start, row size, bin,
skip, and row mirror settings are read out. If this
set of rows includes rows read out above, those
rows are resampled, meaning that the data is
invalid.

Columns are read out in the following order:
1. Dark columns:
If either Show_Dark_Columns or Row_BLC is
set, dark columns on the left side of the image are
read out followed by those on the right side. The
set of columns read is shown in Table 7. The
Column_Skip setting is ignored for the dark
columns.
If neither Show_Dark_Columns nor Row_BLC is
set, no dark columns are read, allowing all
columns to be part of the active image. This does
not change the row time, as WDC is included in the
vertical blank period.
2. Active image:
The columns defined by column start, column size,
bin, skip, and column mirror settings are read out.
If this set of columns includes the columns read
out above, these columns are resampled, meaning
the data is invalid.

OUTPUT DATA TIMING
The output images are divided into frames, which are
further divided into lines. By default, the sensor produces
1944 rows of 2592 columns each. The FV and LV signals
indicate the boundaries between frames and lines,
respectively. PIXCLK can be used as a clock to latch the
data. For each PIXCLK cycle, one 12bit pixel datum
outputs on the DOUT pins. When both FV and LV are
asserted, the pixel is valid. PIXCLK cycles that occur when
FV is negated are called vertical blanking. PIXCLK cycles
that occur when only LV is negated are called horizontal
blanking.

Vertical Blanking Horiz Blanking Valid Image Data Horiz Blanking Vertical Blanking
Pn
LV and FV
The timing of the FV and LV outputs is closely related to
the row time and the frame time.
FV will be asserted for an integral number of row times,
which will normally be equal to the height of the output
image. If Show_Dark_Rows is set, the dark sample rows
will be output before the active image, and FV will be
extended to include them. In this case, FV’s leading edge
happens at time 0.
LV will be asserted during the valid pixels of each row.
The leading edge of LV will be offset from the leading edge
of FV by 609 PIXCLKs. If Show_Dark_Columns is set, the
dark columns will be output before the image pixels, and LV
will be extended back to include them; in this case, the first
pixel of the active image still occurs at the same position
relative to the leading edge of FV. Normally, LV will only be
asserted if FV is asserted; this is configurable as described
below.
LV Format Options
The default situation is for LV to be negated when FV is
negated. The other option available is shown in Figure 9. If
Continuous_LV is set, LV is asserted even when FV is not,
with the same period and duty cycle. If XOR_Line_Valid is
set, but not Continuous_Line_Valid, the resulting LV will be
the XOR of FV and the continuous LV.

Frame Time
The pixel clock (PIXCLK) represents the time needed to
sample 1 pixel from the array, and is typically equal to 1
EXTCLK period. The sensor outputs data at the maximum
rate of 1 pixel per PIXCLK. One row time (tROW) is the
period from the first pixel output in a row to the first pixel
output in the next row. The row time and frame time are
defined by equations in Table 8.

SERIAL BUS DESCRIPTION
Registers are written to and read from the MT9P031
through the twowire serial interface bus. The MT9P031 is
a serial interface slave and is controlled by the serial clock
(SCLK), which is driven by the serial interface master. Data
is transferred into and out of the MT9P031 through the serial
data (SDATA) line. The SDATA line is pulled up to
VDD_IO offchip by a 1.5 kΩ resistor. Either the slave or
master device can pull the SDATA line LOWthe serial
interface protocol determines which device is allowed to
pull the SDATA line down at any given time.
Protocol
The two-wire serial defines several different transmission
codes, as follows:
1. a start bit
2. the slave device 8-bit address
3. an (a no) acknowledge bit
4. an 8-bit message
5. a stop bit
Sequence
A typical READ or WRITE sequence begins by the
master sending a start bit. After the start bit, the master sends
the slave device’s 8bit address. The last bit of the address
determines if the request is a READ or a WRITE, where a
“0” indicates a WRITE and a “1”indicates a READ. The
slave device acknowledges its address by sending an
acknowledge bit back to the master.
If the request is a WRITE, the master then transfers the
8bit register address to which a WRITE should take place.
The slave sends an acknowledge bit to indicate that the
register address has been received. The master then transfers
the data 8 bits at a time, with the slave sending an
acknowledge bit after each 8 bits. The MT9P031 uses 16bit
data for its internal registers, thus requiring two 8bit
transfers to write to one register. After 16 bits are transferred,
the register address is automatically incremented, so that the
next 16 bits are written to the next register address. The
master stops writing by sending a start or stop bit.
A typical READ sequence is executed as follows. First the
master sends the writemode slave address and 8bit
register address, just as in the WRITE request. The master
then sends a start bit and the readmode slave address. The
master then clocks out the register data 8 bits at a time. The
master sends an acknowledge bit after each 8bit transfer.
The register address is automaticallyincremented after
every 16 bits is transferred. The data transfer is stopped
when the master sends a noacknowledge bit.
Bus Idle State
The bus is idle when both the data and clock lines are
HIGH. Control of the bus is initiated with a start bit, and the
bus is released with a stop bit. Only the master can generate
the start and stop bits.
Start Bit
The start bit is defined as a HIGHtoLOW transition of
the data line while the clock line is HIGH.
Stop Bit
The stop bit is defined as a LOWtoHIGH transition of
the data line while the clock line is HIGH.
Slave Address
The 8bit address of a twowire serial interface device
consists of 7 bits of address and 1 bit of direction. A “0” in
the LSB (least significant bit) of the address indicates write
mode (0xBA), and a “1” indicates read mode (0xBB).
Data Bit Transfer
One data bit is transferred during each clock pulse. The
serial interface clock pulse is provided by the master. The
data must be stable during the HIGH period of the twowire
serial interface clockit can only change when the serial
clock is LOW. Data is transferred 8 bits at a time, followed
by an acknowledge bit.
Acknowledge Bit
The master generates the acknowledge clock pulse. The
transmitter (which is the master when writing, or the slave
when reading) releases the data line, and the receiver
indicates an acknowledge bit by pulling the data line LOW
during the acknowledge clock pulse.
No-Acknowledge Bit
The noacknowledge bit is generated when the data line
is not pulled down by the receiver during the acknowledge
clock pulse. A noacknowledge bit is used to terminate a
read sequence.

TWO-WIRE SERIAL INTERFACE SAMPLE WRITE AND READ SEQUENCES
16-Bit WRITE Sequence
A typical WRITE sequence for writing 16 bits to a register
is shown in Figure 11. A start bit given by the master,
followed by the write address, starts the sequence. The
image sensor then gives an acknowledge bit and expects the
register address to come first, followed by the 16bit data.
After each 8bit transfer, the image sensor gives an
acknowledge bit. All 16 bits must be written before the
register is updated. After 16 bits are transferred, the register
address is automatically incremented so that the next 16 bits
are written to the next register. The master stops writing by
sending a start or stop bit.

16-Bit READ Sequence
A typical READ sequence is shown in Figure 12. First the
master has to write the register address, as in a WRITE
sequence. Then a start bit and the read address specify that
a READ is about to happen from the register. The master
then clocks out the register data 8 bits at a time. The master
sends an acknowledge bit after each 8-bit transfer. The
register address should be incremented after every 16 bits is
transferred. The data transfer is stopped when the master
sends a no-acknowledge bit.

FEATURES
Reset
The MT9P031 may be reset by using RESET_BAR
(active LOW) or the reset register.
Hard Reset
Assert (LOW) RESET_BAR, it is not necessary to clock
the device. All registers return to the factory defaults. When
the pin is negated (HIGH), the chip resumes normal
operation.
Soft Reset
Set the Reset register field to “1” (R0x0D[0] = 1). All
registers except the following will be reset:
Chip_Enable
Synchronize_Changes
Reset
Use_PLL
Power_PLL
PLL_m_Factor
PLL_n_Divider
PLL_p1_Divider
When the field is returned to “0,” the chip resumes normal
operation.
Power Up and Power Down
When first powering on the MT9P031, follow this
sequence:
1. Ensure RESET_BAR is asserted (LOW).
2. Bring up the supplies. If both the analog and the
digital supplies cannot be brought up
simultaneously, ensure the digital supply comes up
first.
3. Negate RESET_BAR (HIGH) to bring up the
sensor.
When powering down, be sure to follow this sequence to
ensure that I/Os do not load any buses that they are
connected to.
1. Assert RESET_BAR.
2. Remove the supplies.
Clocks
The MT9P031 requires one clock (EXTCLK), which is
nominally 96 MHz. By default, this results in pixels being
output on the DOUT pins at a maximum data rate of 96 Mp/s.
With VDD_IO = 1.8 V, maximum master clock and
maximum data rate become 48 MHz and 48 Mp/s,
respectively. The EXTCLK clock can be divided down
internally by setting Divide_Pixel_Clock to a nonzero
value. This slows down the operation of the chip as though
EXTCLK had been divided externally.
fEXTCLK if Divide_Pixel_Clock = 0
fPIXCLK= {
fEXTCLK / (2 × Divide_Pixel_Clock) otherwise
The DOUT, LV, FV, and STROBE outputs are launched on
the rising edge of PIXCLK, and should be captured on the
falling edge of PIXCLK. The specific relationship of
PIXCLK to these other outputs can be adjusted in two ways.
If Invert_Pixel_Clock is set, the sense of PIXCLK is
inverted from that shown in Figure 8. In addition, if the pixel
clock has been divided by Divide_Pixel_Clock, it can be
shifted relative to the other outputs by setting
Shift_Pixel_Clock.
PLL-Generated Master Clock
The PLL contains a prescaler to divide the input clock
applied on EXTCLK, a VCO to multiply the prescaler
output, and another divider stage to generate the output
clock. The clocking structure is shown in Figure 13. PLL
control registers can be programmed to generate desired
master clock frequency.
NOTE: The PLL control registers must be programmed
while the sensor is in the software Standby state.
The effect of programming the PLL divisors
while the sensor is in the streaming state is
undefined.

PLL Setup
The MT9P031 has a PLL which can be used to generate
the pixel clock internally.
To use the PLL:
1. Bring the MT9P031 up as normal, make sure that
fEXTCLK is between 6 and 27 MHz and then
power on the PLL by setting Power_PLL
(R0x10[0] = 1).
2. Set PLL_m_Factor, PLL_n_Divider, and
PLL_p1_Divider based on the desired input
(fEXTCLK) and output (fPIXCLK) frequencies.
Determine the M, N, and P1 values to achieve the
desired fPIXCLK using this formula:
fPIXCLK = (fEXTCLK × M) / (N × P1)
where
M = PLL_m_Factor
N = PLL_n_Divider + 1
P1 = PLL_p1_Divider + 1
2 MHz < fEXTCLK / N < 13.5 MHz
180 MHz < (fEXTCLK × M) / N < 360 MHz
NOTE: If P1 is odd (that is, PLL_p1_Divider is even),
the duty cycle of the internal system clock will
not be 50:50. In this case, it is important that
either a slower clock is used or all clock enable
bits are set in R101.
It is desirable to keep (fEXTCLK / n) as large as
possible within the limits. Also, ”m” must be
between 16 and 255, inclusive.
3. Wait 1ms to ensure that the VCO has locked.
4. Set Use_PLL (R0x10[1] = 1) to switch from
EXTCLK to the PLL-generated clock.
Standby and Chip Enable
The MT9P031 can be put in a low-power Standby state by
either method below:
1. Hard Standby: By pulling STANDBY_BAR LOW,
or
2. Soft Standby: By clearing the Chip_Enable
register field (R0x07[1] = 0).
When the sensor is put in standby, all internal clocks are
gated, and analog circuitry is put in a state that it draws
minimal power. The two wire serial interface is still active.
If the sensor was in continuous mode when put in standby,
it resumes from where it was when standby was deactivated.
Naturally, this frame and the next frame are corrupted,
though the sensor itself does not realize this. As this could
affect automatic black level calibration, it is recommended
that either the chip be paused (by setting Restart_Pause)
before being put in standby mode, or it be restarted (setting
Restart) upon resumption of operation.
Entering Soft Standby
REG= 0x0B, 0x0002
REG= 0x0B, 0x0003
REG= 0x07, 0x1F82
REG= 0x07, 0x1F80
REG= 0x0B, 0x0001
Leaving Soft Standby
REG= 0x0B, 0x0002
REG= 0x0B, 0x0003
REG= 0x07, 0x1F80
REG= 0x07, 0x1F82
REG= 0x0B, 0x0001
For maximum power savings in standby mode, EXTCLK
should not be toggling.
When standby mode is entered, either by clearing
Chip_Enable or by asserting STANDBY_BAR, the PLL is
disabled automatically or powered down. It must be
manually re-enabled when leaving standby as needed.
Full-Array Readout
The entire array, including dark pixels, can be read out
without digital processing or automatic black level
adjustments. This can be accomplished as follows:
1. Set Row_Start and Column_Start to 0.
2. Set Row_Size to 2003.
3. Set Column_Size to 2751.
4. Set Manual_BLC to 1.
5. Set Row_BLC to 0.
6. Set Row_Black_Default_Offset to 0.
7. Set Show_Dark_Rows and Show_Dark_Columns
to 0.
If automatic analog (coarse) BLC is desired, but no digital
processing, modify the above settings as follows:
1. Set Row_Start to 12.
2. Set Row_Size to 1993.
3. Set Manual_BLC to 0.
These settings result in the same array layout as above, but
only 22 dark rows are available at the top of the array; the
first eight are used in the black level algorithm, and there
should be a two-row buffer between the black region and the
active region.
Window Control
The output image window of the pixel (the FOV) is
defined by four register fields. Column_Start and Row_Start
define the X and Y coordinates of the upper-left corner of the
FOV. Column_Size defines the width of the FOV, and
Row_Size defines the height of the FOV in array pixels.
The Column_Start and Row_Start fields must be set to an
even number. The Column_Size and Row_Size fields must
be set to odd numbers (resulting in an even size for the FOV).
The Row_Start register should be set no lower than 12 if
either Manual_BLC is clear or Show_Dark_Rows is set.
If no special resolution modes are set (see below), the
width of the output image, W, is Column_Size + 1 and the
height, H, is Row_Size + 1.
MT9P031

Readout Modes
Subsampling
By default, the resolution of the output image is the full
width and height of the FOV as defined in “Window
Control”. The output resolution can be reduced by two
methods: Skipping and Binning.
Row and column skip modes use subsampling to reduce
the output resolution without reducing FOV. The MT9P031
also has row and column binning modes, which can reduce
the impact of aliasing introduced by the use of skip modes.
This is achieved by the averaging of 2 or 3 adjacent rows and
columns (adjacent same-color pixels). Both 2X and 4X
binning modes are supported. Rows and columns can be
binned independently.
Skipping
Skipping reduces resolution by using only selected pixels
from the FOV in the output image. In skip mode, entire rows
and columns of pixels are not sampled, resulting in a lower
resolution output image. A skip 2X mode skips one Bayer
pair of pixels for every pair output. Skip 3X skips two pairs
for each one pair output. Rows and columns are always read
out in pairs. If skip 2X mode is enabled with otherwise
default sensor settings, the columns in the output image
correspond to the pixel array columns 16, 17, 20, 21, 24,
25... .

Skipping can be enabled separately for rows and columns.
To enable skip mode, set either or both of Row_Skip and
Column_Skip to the number of pixel pairs that should be
skipped for each pair used in the output image. For example,
to set column skip 2X mode, set Column_Skip to “1”.
The size of the output image is reduced by the skip mode
as shown in the following two equations:
(eq. 1)
W+2 ceil((Column_Size )1))ń(2 (Column_Skip )1)))
H+2 ceil((Row_Size )1))ń(2 (Row_Skip )1))) (eq. 2)

Binning
Binning reduces resolution by combining adjacent
same-color imager pixels to produce one output pixel. All of
the pixels in the FOV contribute to the output image in bin
mode. This can result in a more pleasing output image with
reduced subsampling artifacts. It also improves low-light
performance. For columns, the combination step can be
either an averaging or summing operation. Depending on
lighting conditions, one or the other may be desirable. In
low-light conditions, summing produces a gain roughly
equivalent to the column bin factor. Column summing may
be enabled by setting Column_Sum.
Binning works in conjunction with skipping. Pixels that
would be skipped because of the Column_Skip and
Row_Skip settings can be averaged instead by setting
Column_Bin and Row_Bin to the number of neighbor pixels
to be averaged with each output pixel. For example, to set
bin 2X mode, set Column_Skip and Column_Bin to 1.
Additionally, Column_Start must be a multiple of
(2 * (Column_Bin + 1)) and Row_Start must be a multiple
of (2 * (Row_Bin + 1)).
Only certain combinations of binning and skipping are
allowed.
These are shown in Table 12. If an illegal skip value is
selected for a bin mode, a legal value is selected instead.

By setting R0x20[14] = 1, the readout order of the
columns is reversed, as shown in Figure 21. The starting

By default, active pixels in the resulting image are output
in row-major order (an entire row is output before the next
row is begun), from lowest row/column number to highest.
If desired, the output (and sampling) order of the rows and
columns can be reversed. This affects only pixels in the
active region defined above, not any pixels read out as dark
rows or dark columns. When the readout direction is
reversed, the color order is reversed as well (red, green, red,
and so on, instead of green, red, green, and so on, for
example).
MT9P031
www.onsemi.com

If row binning is combined with row mirroring, the
binning is still done in the positive direction. Therefore, if
the first output row in bin 2X + row mirror was 1997, pixels
on rows 1997 and 1999 would be averaged together. The
next pixel output would be from rows 1996 and 1998,
followed by the average of 1993 and 1995.
For column mirroring plus binning, the span of pixels used
should be the same as with non-mirror mode.
Maintaining a Constant Frame Rate
Maintaining a constant frame rate while continuing to
have the ability to adjust certain parameters is the desired
scenario. This is not always possible, however, because
register updates are synchronized to the read pointer, and the
shutter pointer for a frame is usually active during the
readout of the previous frame. Therefore, any register
changes that could affect the row time or the set of rows
sampled causes the shutter pointer to start over at the
beginning of the next frame.
By default, the following register fields cause a “bubble”
in the output rate (that is, the vertical blank increases for one
frame) if they are written in continuous mode, even if the
new value would not change the resulting frame rate:
Row_Start
Row_Size
Column_Size
Horizontal_Blank
Vertical_Blank
Shutter_Delay
Mirror_Row
Row_Bin
Row_Skip
Column_Skip
The size of this bubble is (SW × tROW), calculating the
row time according to the new settings.
The Shutter_Width_Lower and Shutter_Width_Upper
fields may be written without causing a bubble in the output
rate under certain circumstances. Because the shutter
sequence for the next frame often is active during the output
of the current frame, this would not be possible without
special provisions in the hardware. Writes to these registers
take effect two frames after the frame they are written, which
allows the shutter width to increase without interrupting the
output or producing a corrupt frame (as long as the change
in shutter width does not affect the frame time).
Synchronizing Register Writes to Frame Boundaries
Changes to most register fields that affect the size or
brightness of an image take effect on the frame after the one
during which they are written. These fields are noted as
“synchronized to frame boundaries” in Table 12 of the
register reference. To ensure that a register update takes
effect on the next frame, the write operation must be
completed after the leading edge of FV and before the
trailing edge of FV.
As a special case, in Snapshot modes (see “Operating
Modes”), register writes that occur after FV but before the
next trigger will take effect immediately on the next frame,
as if there had been a Restart. However, if the trigger for the
next frame in ERS Snapshot mode occurs during FV, register
writes take effect as with continuous mode.
Additional control over the timing of register updates can
be achieved by using synchronize_changes. If this bit is set,
writes to certain register fields that affect the brightness of
the output image do not take effect immediately. Instead, the
new value is remembered internally. When
synchronize_changes is cleared, all the updates
simultaneously take effect on the next frame (as if they had
all been written the instant synchronize_changes was
cleared). Register fields affected by this bit are identified in
Table 13 of the register reference.
Fields not identified as being framesynchronized or
affected by synchronize_changes are updated immediately
after the register write is completed. The effect of these
registers on the next frame can be difficult to predict if they
affect the shutter pointer.
Restart
To restart the MT9P031 at any time during the operation
of the sensor, write a “1” to the restart register (R0x0B[0] =
1). This has two effects: first, the current frame is interrupted
immediately. Second, any writes to frame-synchronized
registers and the shutter width registers take effect
immediately, and a new frame starts (in continuous mode).
Register updates being held by synchronize_changes do not
take effect until that bit is cleared. The current row and one
following row complete before the new frame is started, so
the time between issuing the Restart and the beginning of the
next frame can vary by about tROW.
If Pause_Restart is set, rather than immediately beginning
the next frame after a restart in continuous mode, the sensor
pauses at the beginning of the next frame until Pause_Restart
is cleared. This can be used to achieve a deterministic time
period from clearing the Pause_Restart bit to the beginning
of the first frame, meaning that the controller does not need
to be tightly synchronized to LV or FV.
NOTE: When Pause_Restart is cleared, be sure to leave
Restart set to “1” for proper operation. The
Restart bit will be cleared automatically by the
device.
Image Acquisition Modes
The MT9P031 supports two image acquisition modes
(Shutter Types) (see “Operating Modes”), electronic rolling
shutter and global reset release.
Electronic Rolling Shutter
The ERS modes take pictures by scanning the rows of the
sensor twice in the order described in “Full-Array Readout”.
On the first scan, each row is released from reset, starting the
exposure. On the second scan, the row is sampled,
processed, and returned to the reset state. The exposure for
MT9P031
www.onsemi.com
19
any row is therefore the time between the first and second
scans. Each row is exposed for the same duration, but at
slightly different point in time, which can cause a shear in
moving subjects.
Whenever the mode is changed to an ERS mode (even
from another ERS mode), and before the first frame
following reset, there is an anti-blooming sequence where
all rows are placed in reset. This sequence must complete
before continuous readout begins. This delay is:
tALLRESET = 16 × 2004 × tACLK
Global Reset Release
The GRR modes attempt to address the shearing effect by
starting all rows’ exposures at the same time. Instead of the
first scan used in ERS mode, the reset to each row is released
simultaneously. The second scan occurs as normal, so the
exposure time for each row would different. Typically, an
external mechanical shutter would be used to stop the
exposure of all rows simultaneously.
In GRR modes, there is a startup overhead before each
frame as all rows are initially placed in the reset state
(tALLRESET). Unlike ERS mode, this delay always occurs
before each frame. However, it occurs as soon as possible
after the preceding frame, so typically the time from trigger
to the start of exposure does not include this delay. To ensure
that this is the case, the first trigger must occur no sooner
than tALLRESET after the previous frame is read out.
Exposure
The nominal exposure time, tEXP, is the effective shutter
time in ERS modes, and is defined by the shutter width, SW,
and the shutter overhead, SO, which includes the effect of
Shutter_Delay. Exposure time for other modes is defined
relative to this time. Increasing Shutter_Delay (SD)
decreases the exposure time. Exposure times are typically
specified in units of row time, although it is possible to
fine-tune exposures in units of tACLKs (where tACLK is 2
* tPIXCLK).
tEXP = SW × tROW – SO × 2 × tPIXCLK
where:
SW = max(1, (2 * 16 × Shutter_Width_Upper) +
Shutter_Width_Lower)
SO = 208 × (Row_Bin + 1) + 98 + min(SD, SDmax) – 94
SD = Shutter_Delay + 1
SDmax = 1232; if SW < 3
1504, otherwise
The exposure time is calculated by determining the reset
time of each pixel row (with time 0 being the start of the first
row time), and subtracting it from the sample time. Under
normal conditions in ERS modes, every pixel should end up
with the same exposure time. In global shutter release
modes, or in row binning modes, the exposure times of
individual pixels can vary.
In global shutter release modes (described later) exposure
time starts simultaneously for all rows, but still ends as
defined above. In a real system, the exposure would be
stopped by a mechanical shutter, which would effectively
stop the exposure to all rows simultaneously. Because this
specification does not consider the effect of an external
shutter, each output row’s exposure time will differ by
tROW from the previous row.
Global shutter modes also introduce a constant added to
the shutter time for each row, because the exposure starts
during the global shutter sequence, and not during any row’s
shutter sequence. For each additional row in a row bin, this
offset will increase by the length of the shutter sequence.
In Bulb_Exposure modes (see details in Table 13), the
exposure time is determined by the width of the TRIGGER
pulse rather than the shutter width registers. In ERS bulb
mode, it is still a multiple of row times, and the shutter
overhead equation still applies. In GRR bulb mode, the
exposure time is granular to ACLKs, and shutter overhead
(and thus shutter_delay) has no effect.
Operating Modes
In the default operating mode, the MT9P031 continuously
samples and outputs frames. It can be put in “snapshot” or
triggered mode by setting snapshot, which means that it
samples and outputs a frame only when triggered. To leave
snapshot mode, it is necessary to first clear Snapshot then
issue a restart.
When in snapshot mode, the sensor can use the ERS or the
GRR. The exposure can be controlled as normal, with the
shutter_width_lower and shutter_width_upper registers, or
it can be controlled using the external TRIGGER signal. The
various operating modes are summarized in Table 13.

Frames are output one at a time, with each frame initiated by a trigger. GRR is
used. Readout is electronically triggered based on SW.
GRR Bulb Snapshot = 1;
Bulb_Exposure = 1;
Global_Reset = 1
Frames are output one at a time, with each frame initiated by a trigger. GRR is
used. Readout is initiated by a second trigger.
1. In ERS bulb mode, SW must be greater than 4 (use trigger wider than tROW * 4).
All operating modes share a common set of operations:
1. Wait for the first trigger, then start the exposure.
2. Wait for the second trigger, then start the readout.
The first trigger is by default automatic, producing
continuous images. If snapshot is set, the first trigger can
either be a low level on the TRIGGER pin or writing a “1”
to the trigger register field. If Invert_Trigger is set, the first
trigger is a high level on TRIGGER pin (or a “1” written to
trigger register field). Because TRIGGER is level-sensitive,
multiple frames can be output (with a frame rate of
tFRAME) by holding TRIGGER pin at the triggering level.
The second trigger is also normally automatic, and
generally occurs SW row times after the exposure is started.
If Bulb_Exposure is set, the second trigger can either be a
high level on TRIGGER or a write to Restart. If
Invert_Trigger is set, the second trigger is a low level on
TRIGGER (or a Restart). In bulb modes, the minimum
possible exposure time depends on the mechanical shutter
used.
After one frame has been output, the chip will reset step
1, above, eventually waiting for the first trigger again. The
next trigger may be issued after ((VB - 8) x tROW) in ERS
modes or tALLREST in GRR modes.
The choice of shutter type is made by Global_Reset. If it
is set, the GRR shutter is used; otherwise, ERS is used. The
two shutters are described in “Electronic Rolling Shutter”
and “Global Reset Release”.
The default ERS continuous mode is shown in Figure 8.
Figure 23 shows default signal timing for ERS snapshot
modes, while Figure 24 shows default signal timing for
GRR snapshot modes.

Strobe Control
To support synchronization of the exposure with external
events such as a flash or mechanical shutter, the MT9P031
produces a STROBE output. By default, this signal is
asserted for approximately the time that all rows are
simultaneously exposing, minus the vertical blanking time,
as shown in Figure 23 and Figure 24. Also indicated in these
figures are the leading and trailing edges of STROBE, which
an be configured to occur at one of several timepoints. The
leading edge of STROBE occurs at STROBE_Start, and the
trailing edge at STROBE_End, which are set to codes
described in Table 14.
Table 14. STROBE TIMEPOINTS
Symbol Timepoint Code
TT1 Trigger 1 (start of shutter scan)
TSE Start of exposure (all rows simultaneously exposing) offset by VB 1
TSW End of shutter width (expiration of the internal shutter width counter) 2
TT2 Trigger 2 (start of readout scan) 3
If STROBE_Start and STROBE_End are set to the same
timepoint, the strobe is a tROW wide pulse starting at the
STROBE_Start timepoint. If the settings are such that the
strobe would occur after the trailing edge of FV, the strobe
may be only tACLK wide; however, because there is no
concept of a row at that time. The sense of the STROBE
signal can be inverted by setting Invert_Strobe (R0x1E[5] =
1. To use strobe as a flash in snapshot modes or with
mechanical shutter, set the Strobe_Enable register bit field
R0x1E[4] = 1.
Signal Chain and Datapath
The signal chain and datapath are shown in Figure 25.
Each color is processed independently, including separate
gain and offset settings. Voltages sampled from the pixel
array are first passed through an analog gain stage, which
can produce gain factors between 1 and 8. An analog offset
is then applied, and the signal is sent through a 12-bit
analog-to-digital converter. In the digital space, a digital
gain factor of between 1 and 16 is applied, and then a digital
MT9P031
www.onsemi.com
22
offset of between –2048 and 2047 is added. The resulting
12-bit pixel value is then output on the DOUT[11:0] ports.
The analog offset applied is determined automatically by
the black level calibration algorithm, which attempts to shift
the output of the analog signal chain so that black is at a
particular level. The digital offset is a fine-tuning of the
analog offset.

Gain
There are two types of gain supported: analog gain and
digital gain. Combined, gains of between 1 and 128 are
possible. The recommended gain settings are shown in
Table 15.
Table 15. GAIN INCREMENT SETTINGS
Gain Range Increments Digital Gain Analog Multipier Analog Gain
1– 4 0.125 0 0 8–32
4.25–8 0.25 0 1 17–32
9–128 1 1–120 1 32
1. Analog gain should be maximized before applying digital gain.
2. The recommended minimum gain is 1.38 (0x000B)
3. For optimal sensor performance, when using gain settings <= 4.0, also set reserved register R0x3E = 0x0080 and for gain settings >4.0,
set register R0x003E=0x00C0.
The combined gain for a color C is given by: GC = AGC x DGC.
Analog Gain
The analog gain is specified independently for each color
channel. There are two components, the gain and the
multiplier. The gain is specified by Green1_Analog_Gain,
Red_Analog_Gain, Blue_Analog_Gain, and
Green2_Analog_Gain in steps of 0.125. The analog
multiplier is specified by Green1_Analog_Multiplier,
Red_Analog_Multiplier, Blue_Analog_Multiplier, and
Green2_Analog_Multiplier. These combine to form the
analog gain for a given color C as shown in this equation:
AGC = (1 + C_Analog_Multiplier) × (C_Analog_Gain /
8)
The gain component can range from 0 to 7.875 in steps of
0.125, and the multiplier component can be either 0 or 1
(resulting in a multiplier of 1 or 2). However, it is best to keep
the “gain” component between 1 and 4 for the best noise
performance, and use the multiplier for gains between 4 and
8.
Digital Gain
The digital gain is specified independently for each color
channel in steps of 0.125. It is controlled by the register
fields Green1_Digital_Gain, Red_Digital_Gain,
Blue_Digital_Gain, and Green2_Digital_Gain. The digital
gain for a color C is given by:
DGC = 1 + (C_Digital_Gain / 8)
Offset
The MT9P031 sensor can apply an offset or shift to the
image data in a number of ways.
An analog offset can be applied on a color-wise basis to
the pixel voltage as it enters the ADC. This makes it possible
to adjust for offset introduced in the pixel sampling and gain
stages to be removed, centering the resulting voltage swing
in the ADC’s range. This offset can be automatically
determined by the sensor using the automatic black level
calibration (BLC) circuit, or it can be set manually by the
user. It is a fairly coarse adjustment, with adjustment step
sizes of 4 to 8 LSBs.
MT9P031
www.onsemi.com
23
Digital offset is also added on a color-wise and line-wise
basis to fine tune the black level of the output image. This
offset is based on an average black level taken from each
row’s dark columns, and is automatically determined by the
digital row-wise black level calibration (RBLC) circuit. If
the RBLC circuit is not used, a user-defined offset can be
applied instead. This offset has a resolution of 1 LSBs.
A digital offset is added on a color-wise basis to account
for channel offsets that can be introduced due to “even” and
“odd” pixels of the same color going through a slightly
different ADC chain. This offset is automatically
determined based on dark row data, but it can also be
manually set.
Analog Black Level Calibration
The MT9P031 black level calibration circuitry provides
a feedback control system since adjustments to the analog
offset are imprecise by nature. The goal is that within the
dark row region of any supported output image size, the
offset should have been adjusted such that the average black
level falls within the specified target thresholds.
The analog offsets normally need a major adjustment only
when leaving the Reset state or when there has been a change
to a colors analog gain. Factors like shutter width and
temperature have lower-order impact, and generally only
require a minor adjustment to the analog offsets. The
MT9P031 has various calibration modes to keep the system
stable while still supporting the need for rapid offset
adjustments when necessary.
The two basic steps of black level calibration are:
1. Take a sample.
2. If necessary, adjust the analog offset.
Black level calibration is normally done separately for
each color channel, and different channels can use different
sample or adjustment methods at the same time. However,
because both Green1 and Green2 pixels go through the same
signal chain, and Red and Blue pixels likewise go through
the same signal chain, it is expected that the chosen offset for
these pairs should be the same as long as the gains are the
same. If Lock_Green_Calibration is set, and
(Green1_Analog_Gain = Green2_Analog_Gain) and
(Green1_Analog_Multiplier = Green2_Analog_
Multiplier), the calculated or user-specified Green1_Offset
is used for both green channels. Similarly, if
Lock_Red/Blue_Calibration is set, and (Red_Analog_Gain
= Blue_Analog_Gain) and (Red_Analog_Multiplier =
Blue_Analog_Multiplier), the calculated or user-specified
Red_Offset is used for both the red and blue channels.
The current values of the offsets can be read from the
Green1_Offset, Red_Offset, Blue_Offset, and
Green2_Offset registers. Writes to these registers when
Manual_BLC is set change the offsets being used. In
automatic BLC mode, writes to these registers are effective
when manual mode is re-entered. In Manual_BLC mode, no
sampling or adjusting takes place for any color.
Digital Black Level Calibration
Digital black level calibration is the final calculation
applied to pixel data before it is output. It provides a precise
black level to complement the coarser-grained analog black
level calibration, and also corrects for black level shift
introduced by digital gain. This correction applies to the
active columns for all rows, including dark rows.
Test Patterns
The MT9P031 has the capability of injecting a number of
test patterns into the top of the datapath to debug the digital
logic. With one of the test patterns activated, any of the
datapath functions can be enabled to exercise it in a
deterministic fashion. Test patterns are enabled when
Enable_Test_Pattern is set. Only one of the test patterns can
be enabled at a given point in time by setting the
Test_Pattern_Mode register according to Table 16. When
test patterns are enabled the active area will receive the value
specified by the selected test pattern and the dark pixels will
receive the value in Test_Pattern_Green for green pixels,
Test_Pattern_Blue for blue pixels, and Test_Pattern_Red for
red pixels’+.
NOTE: ON Semiconductor recommends turning off
black level calibration (BLC) when Test Pattern
is enabled, otherwise some of the test patterns
will not be properly output.
