General Description

The Aptina™ MT9M001 is an SXGA-format with a 1/2-

inch CMOS active-pixel digital image sensor. The

active imaging pixel array of 1,280H x 1,024V. It incor-

porates sophisticated camera functions on-chip such

as windowing, column and row skip mode, and snap-

shot mode. It is programmable through a simple two-

wire serial interface.

This megapixel CMOS image sensor features Aptina’s

breakthrough low-noise CMOS imaging technology

that achieves CCD image quality (based on signal-to-

noise ratio and low-light sensitivity) while maintaining

the inherent size, cost, and integration advantages of

CMOS.

Table 1: Key Performance Parameters

The sensor can be operated in its default mode or pro-

grammed by the user for frame size, exposure, gain set-

ting, and other parameters. The default mode outputs

an SXGA-size image at 30 frames per second (fps). An

on-chip analog-to-digital converter (ADC) provides 10

bits per pixel. FRAME_VALID and LINE_VALID signals

are output on dedicated pins, along with a pixel clock

that is synchronous with valid data.

pixels are also optically black. The black row data is used internally for the automatic

black level adjustment. However, the black rows can also be read out by setting the

sensor to raw data output mode (Reg0x20, bit 11 = 1). There are 1,289 columns by 1,033

rows of optically active pixels, which provides a four-pixel boundary around the SXGA

MT9M001: 1/2-Inch Megapixel Digital Image Sensor

Pixel Data Format

Output Data Format

The MT9M001 image data is read out in a progressive scan. Valid image data is

surrounded by horizontal blanking and vertical blanking, as shown in Figure 5. The

amount of horizontal blanking and vertical blanking is programmable through Reg0x05

and Reg0x06, respectively. LINE_VALID is HIGH during the shaded region of the figure.

FRAME_VALID timing is described in “Output Data Timing” on page 9.

Figure 5: Spatial Illustration of Image Readout

Output Data Timing

The data output of the MT9M001 is synchronized with the PIXCLK output. When

LINE_VALID is HIGH, one 10-bit pixel datum is output every PIXCLK period.

Figure 6: Timing Example of Pixel Data

The rising edges of the PIXCLK signal are nominally timed to occur on the rising DOUT

edges. This allows PIXCLK to be used as a clock to latch the data. DOUT data is valid on

the falling edge of PIXCLK. The PIXCLK is HIGH while master clock is HIGH and then

LOW while master clock is LOW. It is continuously enabled, even during the blanking

period. The parameters P1, A, P2, and Q in Figure 7 are defined in Table 4.

Frame Timing Formulas

Note: 1. Row skip mode should have no effect on the integration time. Column skip mode changes the effective

value of Column Size (Reg0x04) as follows:

Column Skip 2 => R4eff = (int(R4 / 4) x 2) + 1

Column Skip 4 => R4eff = (int(R4 / 8) x 2) + 1

Column Skip 8 => R4eff = (int(R4 / 16) x 2) + 1

where the int() function truncates to the next lowest integer. Now use R4eff in the equation for row

time instead of R4

2. Default for Reg0x05 = 9. However, sensor ignores any value for Reg0x05 less than 19.

Sensor timing is shown above in terms of pixel clock and master clock cycles (please

refer to Figure 6). The recommended master clock frequency is 48 MHz. The vertical

blank and total frame time equations assume that the number of integration rows (bits

13 through 0 of Reg0x09) is less than the number of active plus blanking rows (Reg0x03 +

1 + Reg0x06 + 1). If this is not the case, the number of integration rows must be used

instead to determine the frame time, as shown in Table 5.

MT9M001: 1/2-Inch Megapixel Digital Image Sensor

Serial Bus Description

Registers are written to and read from the MT9M001 through the two-wire serial inter-

face bus. The sensor is a two-wire 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 MT9M001 through the serial data (SDATA) line. The SDATA line is pulled up to

3.3V off-chip by a 1.5KΩ resistor. Either the slave or master device can pull the SDATA line

down—the serial interface protocol determines which device is allowed to pull the

SDATA line down at any given time.

Protocol

The two-wire serial interface defines several different transmission codes, as follows:

•a start bit

• the slave device eight-bit address

• a(an) (no) acknowledge bit

• an 8-bit message

•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 eight-bit address. The last bit of the address

determines if the request will be 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 was a write, the master then transfers the 8-bit 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 eight bits at a time, with

the slave sending an acknowledge bit after each eight bits. The MT9M001 uses 16-bit

data for its internal registers, thus requiring two 8-bit 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 write-mode

slave address and 8-bit register address, just as in the write request. The master then

sends a start bit and the read-mode slave address. The master then clocks out the

transfer. The register address is auto-incremented after every 16 bits is transferred. The

data transfer is stopped when the master sends a no-acknowledge bit.

Bus Idle State

The bus is idle when both the data and clock lines are HIGH. Control of the bus is initi-

ated 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 HIGH-to-LOW transition of the data line while the clock line

is HIGH.

PDF:7657919000/Source: 7657919000

MT9M001: 1/2-Inch Megapixel Digital Image Sensor

Serial Bus Description

Stop Bit

The stop bit is defined as a LOW-to-HIGH transition of the data line while the clock line

is HIGH.

Slave Address

The 8-bit address of a two-wire serial interface device consists of seven bits of address

and 1 bit of direction. A “0” (0xBA) in the LSB (least significant bit) of the address indi-

cates the write mode, and a “1” (0xBB) indicates read mode.

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 two-wire

serial interface clock—it can only change when the serial clock is LOW. Data is trans-

ferred eight 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 indi-

cates an acknowledge bit by pulling the data line LOW during the acknowledge clock

pulse.

No-Acknowledge Bit

The no-acknowledge bit is generated when the data line is not pulled down by the

receiver during the acknowledge clock pulse. A no-acknowledge bit is used to terminate

a read sequence.

MT9M001: 1/2-Inch Megapixel Digital Image Sensor

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 8. A start bit

given by the master, followed by the write address, starts the sequence. The image sensor

will then give an acknowledge bit and expects the register address to come first, followed

by the 16-bit data. After each eight-bit transfer, the image sensor will give an acknowl-

edge bit. All 16 bits must be written before the register will be 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.

Figure 8: Timing Diagram Showing a Write to Reg0x09 with the Value 0x0284

16-Bit Read Sequence

A typical read sequence is shown in Figure 9. First the master has to write the register

address, as in a write sequence. Then a start bit and the read address specifies that a read

is about to happen from the register. The master then clocks out the register data eight

bits at a time. The master sends an acknowledge bit after each eight-bit transfer. The

transfer is stopped when the master sends a no-acknowledge bit.

MT9M001: 1/2-Inch Megapixel Digital Image Sensor

Feature Description

Signal Path

The MT9M001 signal path consists of two stages, a programmable gain stage and a

programmable analog offset stage.

Programmable Gain Stage

A total programmable gain of 15 is available and can be calculated using the following

formula:

Gain 1 to 8: Gain = (bit[6] + 1) x (bit[5:0] x 0.125)

For gain higher than eight, the user would need to set bit[6:5] = 11 and use the lower 3

LSB's bit[2:0] to set the higher gain values. The formula for obtaining gain greater than

eight is as follows:

Total gain = 8 + bit[2:0]

For example, for total gain = 12, the value to program is bit[6–0] = 1100100.

The maximum total gain = 15, i.e. bit[6:0] = 1100111.

The gain circuitry in the MT9M001 is designed to offer signal gains from one to 15. The

minimum gain of one corresponds to the lowest setting where the pixel signal is guaran-

teed to saturate the ADC under all specified operating conditions. Any reduction of the

gain below this value may cause the sensor to saturate at ADC output values less than

the maximum, under certain conditions. It is recommended that this guideline be

followed at all times.

Since bit[6] of the gain registers are multiplicative factors for the gain settings, there are

alternative ways of achieving certain gains. Some settings offer superior noise perfor-

mance to others, despite the same overall gain. Recommended gain settings are listed in

Table 6.

MT9M001: 1/2-Inch Megapixel Digital Image Sensor

Feature Description

Programmable Analog Offset Stage

The programmable analog offset stage corrects for analog offset that might be present in

the analog signal. The user would need to program register 0x62 appropriately to enable

the analog offset correction.

The lower eight bits (bit[7:0]) determines the absolute value of the analog offset to be

corrected and bit[8] determines the sign of the correction. When bit[8] is “1”, the sign of

the correction is negative and vice versa. The analog value of the correction relative to

the analog gain stage can be determined from the following formula:

Analog offset (bit[8] = 0) = bit[7:0] x 2mV

Analog offset (bit[8] = 1) = - (bit[7:0] x 2mV)

Column and Row Mirror Image

By setting bit 14 of Reg0x20, the readout order of the columns will be reversed, as shown

in Figure 11.

Figure 11: Readout of Six Columns in Normal and Column Mirror Output Mode

By setting bits 15 of Reg0x20 the readout order of the rows will be reversed, as shown in

Figure 12.

Figure 12: Readout of Six Rows in Normal and Row Mirror Output Mode

Column and Row Skip

By setting bit 3 of Reg0x20, only half of the columns set will be read out. An example is

shown in Figure 13. Only columns with bit 1 equal to “0” will be read out (xxxxxxx0x).

The row skip works in the same way and will only read out rows with bit 1 equal to “0.”

Row skip mode is enabled by setting bit 4 of Reg0x20. For both row and column skips, the

number of rows or columns read out will be half of what is set in Reg0x03 or Reg0x04,

respectively.

MT9M001: 1/2-Inch Megapixel Digital Image Sensor

Feature Description

Figure 13: Readout of Eight Pixels in Normal and Column Skip Output Mode

Black Level Calibration

The MT9M001 has automatic black level calibration on-chip which can be overridden by

the user, as described below and shown in Figure 14.

The automatic black level calibration measures the average value of 256 pixels from two

dark rows of the chip for each of the four colors. The pixels are averaged as if they were

light-sensitive and passed through the appropriate color gain. This average is then digi-

tally filtered over many frames.

For each color, the new filtered average is compared to a minimum acceptable level (to

screen for too low a black level) and a maximum acceptable level. If the average is lower

than the minimum acceptable level, the offset correction voltage for that color is

increased by one offset LSB (offset LSBs do not match ADC LSBs; typically, one offset

LSB is approximately 2mV). If it is above the maximum level, the level is decreased by 1

LSB (2mV). The upper threshold is automatically adjusted upwards whenever an

upward shift in the black level from below the minimum results in a new black level

above the maximum. This prevents black level oscillation from below the minimum to

above the maximum. The lower threshold is increased with the maximum gain setting

according to the formula described under Reg0x5F. This prevents clipping of the black

level.

Whenever the gain or any of the readout timing registers is changed (shutter width,

vertical blanking, number of rows or columns, or the shutter delay) or if the black level

recalculation bit, reset bit or restart bit is set, the running digitally filtered average is

reset to the first average of the dark pixels. The digital filtering over many frames is then

restarted. Whenever the gain or the readout timing registers are changed, the upper

threshold is restored to its default value.

After changes to the sensor configuration, large shifts in the black level calibration can

result. To quickly adapt to this shift, a rapid sweep of the black level during the dark-row

readout is performed on the first frame after certain changes to the sensor registers. Any

changes to the registers listed above will cause this recalculation. The data from this

sweep allows the sensor to choose an accurate new starting point for the running

average. This procedure can be disabled as described under Reg0x5F.

MT9M001: 1/2-Inch Megapixel Digital Image Sensor

Feature Description

Still Image Capture with External Synchronization

In continuous mode video image capture, the TRIGGER signal should be held LOW or

“0.” To capture a still image, the sensor must first be put into snapshot mode by

programming a “1” in register 0x1E, bit 8. In snapshot mode, the sensor waits for a

TRIGGER signal (FRAME_VALID, LINE_VALID signals are LOW, pixel clock signal

continues). When the TRIGGER signal is received (active HIGH), one frame is read out (a

TRIGGER signal can also be achieved by programming a restart—for example, program

a “1” to bit 0 of Reg0x0B). The reset, readout timing for that frame will be the same as for

a continuous frame with similar register settings; the only difference is that only one

frame is read out. General timing for the snapshot mode is shown in Figure 15.

Figure 15: General Timing for Snapshot Mode

LINE_VALID Signal

By setting bit 9 and 10 of Reg0x20 the line valid signal can get three different output

formats. The formats are shown when reading out four rows and two vertical blanking

rows (Figure 16). In the last format, the LINE_VALID signal is the XOR between the

continuously LINE_VALID signal and the FRAME_VALID signal.
