General Description
Cypress Semiconductor Corporation’s (Cypress’s) CMOS
sensor is a 3.1-megapixel (QXGA) format, 1/2.8-inch
active-pixel digital image sensor with an active imaging pixel
array of 2048H x 1536V. The sensor incorporates camera
functions such as frame size/rate, flip, mirroring and binning
for increased sensitivity. The sensor functions are all programmable through a I2C serial interface.

The megapixel CMOS sensor features Cypress’s HiSENS
circuitry, which dramatically improves low light sensitivity
without increasing the number of transistors used in the pixel
and maintains the fill factor while reducing the cost and
complexity of the sensor.
An on-chip analog-to-digital converter (ADC) provides 12 bits
per pixel. The sensor can be programmed by the user to meet
the application specific requirements such as windowing, gain,
panning and other parameters. The sensor can output a
QXGA image up to 14 frames per second (fps).

Functional Overview
The sensor is a progressive-scan sensor that generates a
stream of pixel data qualified by HSYNC and VSYNC signals.
In default mode, the data rate (pixel clock) is the same as the
master clock frequency, one pixel is generated every master
clock cycle.
The core of the sensor is an active-pixel array. The timing and
control circuitry sequences through the rows of the array,
resetting and then reading each row. In the time interval
between resetting and reading a row, the pixels in that row
integrate incident light. The exposure is controlled by varying
the time interval between reset and readout. After a row is
read, the data from the columns is sequenced through an
analog signal chain (providing offset correction), and then
through an ADC. The output from the ADC is a 12-bit value for
each pixel in the array. The pixel array contains optically active
and light-shielded “black” pixels. The black pixels are used to
provide data for on-chip offset correction algorithms (black
level control).
The sensor contains a set of 8-bit control and status registers
that can be used to control many aspects of the sensor operations. These registers can be accessed through a I2C serial
interface. In this document, registers are specified either by
name (e.g., column start) or by register address (e.g.,
Reg0x04). Fields within a register are specified by bit or by bit
range (e.g., Reg0x20[0] or Reg0x0B[13:0]. The control and
status registers are described in Registers, Section 8.0.
The output from the sensor is a Bayer pattern: alternate rows
are a sequence of either green/red pixels or blue/green pixels.
The offset and gain stages of the analog signal chain provide
per-color control of the pixel data.

Figure 3-1. Typical Configuration
Figure 3-1 shows a typical module wiring diagram. VDDIO can
be connected to either the 1.8V supply or the 2.8V supply (but
not both) to match the voltage requirements of the back-end
processing chip. It is recommended that the 1.8V supply be
used to minimize power consumption. The capacitor for the
VDDIO supply is optional but the capacitors for VDDD and
VDDA are required and must provide sufficient decoupling on
the module to insure clean supply voltages. Note that
ANLG[2:0] must be connected to capacitors to minimize image
noise. ANLG[3] is only for test purposes and should be
unconnected. Note that RESET_N is typically connected with
an RC circuit to hold RESET_N low until both power supplies
have reached their proper level.

Pixel Array Structure
The sensor device is a camera on a chip CMOS imager with
3-megapixel resolution (QXGA) in a 1/2.8” optical format. This
requires a 2.54-μm square pixel pitch for adequate sensitivity.
Figure 5-1 below shows the layout of the Pixel Array. The 12
outermost rows and columns of the array are covered with
metal and are thus optically black. The black rows can also be
set via internal registers to be read out as valid frame data.
There are 2048H x 1536V optically active pixels surrounded
by an additional 2 Bayer patterns (4 pixels) around the image
to avoid boundary effects during color interpolation and
correction.
The sensor is designed with a mosaic of color filters arranged
in a standard Bayer pattern shown in Figure 5-1. The odd
numbered columns contain green and blue pixels as do the
odd numbered rows. Correspondingly, the even rows and
even columns contain green and red pixels. The imager will
output either all Bayer patterned pixels or all physical pixels
based upon register settings. The Bayer primitive pattern at
the periphery should be used for border interpolation.

To prevent SYNC from being inadvertently indicated in the
active portion of the image, the 0xFF value is remapped to
0xFE when operating in 8-bits/pixel mode. The embedded
sync format follows several industry standards including ITU-R
BT.656.
With discrete sync signals, the polarity of the HSYNC, VSYNC,
and PIXCLK may be independently inverted with respect to the
active pixel readout. HSYNC and VSYNC toggle even when
embedded syncs are enabled.
The resolution is set by three factors. The resolution may be
decreased by sub-windowing a smaller region of interest
(ROI), as set in the internal registers. The imager can also be
programmed to sub-sample the array to read out every nth
Bayer rows and mth Bayer columns. Finally, the imager can be
programmed to bin (combine) adjacent pixels of similar color
in both row and column directions independently with
strengths of 2, 3, or 4.
The output data can be shifted down by 4 bits to accommodate
back-end processors that want to switch from processing
12-bit data to 8-bit data where the LSBs must remain at bit zero
on the Pixel Bus.
6.1
Frame Timing
A frame of data is comprised of valid image data which is
output when the HSYNC and VSYNC signals are inactive (1).
Frame rate is computed as a function of the CLK frequency,
the row timing, the number of rows and the number of vertical
blanking (VBLANK) rows programmed. The frame timing is
programmable via a number of registers described later in this
document.
Interfacing to a back-end processor involves the control
signals, HSYNC and VSYNC, and the appropriate PIXCLK
timing. The Imager has several programmable modes to allow
interfacing to a wide variety of back-end processors.
Figure 6-2 shows typical interface signals.
VSYNC
DATVAL
Dark Pixels
Active Pixels
HBLANK Region
The imager is read out in a progressive scan fashion. This
means that each successive row is read out in an increasing
row number. The data is digitized via on chip A/D converters
and the output resolution is selectable at 8 and 12 bits
resolution. The pixel data is output in parallel with synchronization signals for frame (VSYNC), line (HSYNC), and pixel
(PIXCLK). The frame and line sync signals may be embedded
in the data as set by internal registers. When sync signals are
embedded in the data, the numbers of available colors is
reduced by one value. The embedded SYNC values are
indicated by a pattern of 0xFF, 0x00, 0x00, SYNC_VALUE
where SYNC_VALUE is listed in Table 6-1.
start of a new row of the image. In this mode PIXCLK only
clocks when there is valid data on the PIXDATA bus.
VBLANK Region
Figure 6-1. Frame Timing
In DATVAL mode, PIXCLK runs throughout the HBLANKING
period (or optionally free-runs) and the HSYNC signals
becomes a Data Valid signal which tells the back-end
processor when there is valid data on the PIXDATA bus.
Note that if Dark Pixels are enabled to be output or if digital
horizontal binning is used, DATVAL will toggle many times
during a single row. Enabling Embedded Syncs does not
change the row or frame timing. The 4-byte SYNC fields are
inserted into the data stream during the HBLANK time
(HBLANK must be at least 8).
The timing diagram in Figure 6-2 shows the detailed row
timing of all of the modes that the imager can produce. The
HSYNC signal can be programmed to be either HSYNC or
DATVAL. PIXCLK can be programmed in four different
operating modes. Depending on the back-end processor,
some modes will work better than others. Generally DATVAL
mode with PIXCLDK mode = 10 is the most common mode. In
this mode the HSYNC signal is acting as a DATA VALID pulse.
PIXCLK runs continuously except when invalid data is on the
PIXDATA bus. In the diagram above, CLK 4 is when the dark
pixels are being processed. If the dark pixels were enabled to
be output then CLK 4 would be high. Note that the number of
clocks is significantly reduced in this diagram for ease of
viewing. HSYNC is typically low for 16 or more clocks and
there are 24 dark pixels, not just the one shown here.
The row timing gets more complicated when horizontal binning
or subsampling is enabled (see Figure 6-3). The timing
diagram shows the case where HBIN by 2 is enabled. Note
that since the output format is Bayer patterns, it outputs 2
pixels, then skip (or bin) 2 pixels. Note that when using
DATVAL mode, the DATVAL signal will toggle many times
each row. However, using PIXCLK mode = 01, the backend
processor will not clock in the pixels when DATVAL is low and
thus it looks to the processor like DATVAL is always high when
there is valid data.
There are two basic modes of operation, HSYNC and
DATVAL. In HSYNC mode, the HSYNC signal indicates the

Otherwise, the processor has to clock in every pixel in a frame
and then compute which ones are valid and which ones re not

6.2
Frames per Second and Integration Time
Calculation
The number of frames per second taken by the Osprey is
programmable. It can vary from less then 1 fps to 14 fps in full
resolution capture mode (and can be much higher in reduced
resolution modes). The frame rate is dictated by input clk
frequency, the total number of rows output per frame and the
time required to read out a single row. The total number of rows
output and the time required to output a row can be calculated
using simple formula’s based on I2c register reads.
RowNum register (0x4) stores the number of active rows
output.COLCNT register (0xa8) stores the # of clks required to
read out a single row (hence time required to read out a single
row is COLCNT / CLK FREQ. COLCNT is modified based on
active number of columns output (COLNUM register (0x6) and
the HBLANK register (0x8,0x9), which adds additional clk
cycles onto the end of the row readout). Note that COLCNT is
a 12bit register.
Frames/Second = Clock Frequency / (Total number of Rows
per frame * COLCNT (register 0xa8 and 0xa9))
Document #: 38-19009 Rev. *E
Where Total number of Rows per frame =RowNum(register
0x4 and 0x5 +1)+ VBLANK(0xC and 0xD) + Number of Dark
rows.
The RowNum register will have a value 1 less than actual
number of active rows and hence an addition of 1 in the
formula.
The Dark rows are the optically black rows located towards the
periphery to calculate the black level. At least 4 rows must be
turned on to properly compute the dark current. By default, the
middle 4 rows are turned on which typically are the best for
computing Dark current. Please refer section 7.2.36.
Integration Time Calculation
TINT (in Seconds) = COLCNT (register 0xa8 and 0xa9) *
INTTIME (register 0xE and 0xF) / Clock Frequency
It is recommended that INTTIME should not be set larger than
the Total Number of Rows per Frame.

Output Data Timing
The Pixel Output bus has programmable polarities for the
clock and the sync signals to simplify timing to the back-end
processor. The timing of all of the signals is relative to PIXCLK.
The delay time for HSYNC, VSYNC and the PIXDAT bus to be
valid relative to the selected edge of PIXCLK is a minimum of
0 ns (Ddsmin) and a maximum of 4 ns (Tdsmax).
Page 10 of 37
CYIWOSC3000AA
The SDAT line must only transition when SCLK is low when
data is being transferred. If SDAT transitions while SCLK is
high, then it will be interpreted as either a START or a STOP
condition. Sufficient timing margins must be provided around
the rising and falling edges of SCLK to insure that a START or
STOP condition are not mistakenly recognized.

Serial Bus Description
The CYIWOSC3000AA includes a serial control interface that
allows the application processor to control the imager using
only two signals. The Serial Bus Interface (SBI) is a simple
bidirectional communication interface based on the I2C
protocol that is in wide use throughout the industry. The serial
bus operates at speeds of up to 400,000 bits per second. The
Interface is a multi-drop protocol which allows multiple devices
to be connected to a single pair of wires and can be used
between numerous standard image processing chips.
The two interface signals are called SCLK and SDAT. SCLK
provides a clock for asserting and sampling the SDAT signal.
SCLK is unidirectional from the bus master, typically an image
processing chip, to the CYIWOSC3000AA image sensor.
SDAT is the data bus and is bidirectional. Both signals are
open-drain and require a pull-up resistor of 1.5K Ohms.
Data is always transmitted with the Most-Significant-Bit (MSB)
first. Eight bits of data are always transferred and are followed
by a single ACKnowledge bit.
7.1
The SLAVE ADDRESS is a sequence of 7 bits, a
READ/WRITE bit and an ACKnowledge bit. Data is always
transmitted MSB first and LSB last as shown in Figure 7-1.
The SLAVE ADDRESS is 7 bits long and must be 1110_x10
(0xE4 or 0xEC) where x is the state of the SBIA3 pin. The
SBIA3 pin allows two CYIWOSC3000AA Image Sensors to be
connected to the same Serial Bus Interface. The LSB of the
SLAVE ADDRESS is the READ/WRITE bit where a high (1)
indicates that a READ cycle will follow and a low (0) indicates
that a write cycle will follow. After the READ/WRITE bit, the
CYIWOSC3000AA Image Sensor will assert SDAT low shortly
after SCLK goes low to acknowledge that the SLAVE
ADDRESS has been recognized and is ready to process the
command that will follow.
If a read transaction has been requested (READ/WRITE is
high), then the imager will begin driving SDAT with the register
data at the current address. If a write transaction has been
requested then the bus master should send the two REG
ADDRESS bytes. The REG ADDRESS bytes specifies which
register in the imager is to be accessed.
The next byte of data is the write data. Additional bytes of data
can be written and the ADDRESS will be automatically incremented to the next register. Upon completion of all data being
transferred, the master should issue a STOP command to
place the SBI in an idle state. A STOP command is initiated by
first driving SDAT low and SCLK high, then bringing SDAT high
while SCLK remains high.
7.2
Serial Bus Protocol
Data transfer on the Serial Bus Interface is initiated with a
START condition. The START condition is indicated when the
SDAT signal goes low while SCLK remains high. The START
condition may be initiated at anytime during a transfer and the
imager will restart the transfer to begin accepting the SLAVE
ADDRESS which must immediately follow the START.
Detailed Timing
Figure 7-1 shows the detailed timing of each byte of data to be
transferred on the SBI. A transfer begins with the START
condition. This is always followed by 8-bits of data. The
Acknowledge bit always follows the data which is from the
receiver of the data to the transmitter. Additional bytes of data
can then be transferred until either the STOP condition or
another START condition is detected. Data is always transferred most-significant-bit first.

Single Random WRITE
A WRITE cycle to any register is accomplished by sending a
START followed by a 7 bit SLAVE ADDRESS, one bit of zero
(the read/write indicator) and an ACK bit (see Figure 7-2).
Then the 16-bit register address must be sent in two bytes,
each with an ACK bit from the slave. Finally the 8-bits of data
are sent and the slave will respond with a final ACK bit. The
master can then either issue a STOP command or write to the
next sequential address by sending additional data bytes.
7.4
Multiple WRITE
Multiple registers can be written in a single stream of data
which reduces the time required to update registers. In
Figure 7-3, DATA would be written to the address given in
ADDR. DATA+1 would be written to ADDR+1 and so on with
each byte of data being written to the next higher register
address.
7.5
Single Random READ
A single random read cycle requires that a dummy write cycle
be done first so that the register address can be set. The first
SLAVE ADDR is followed with a 0 bit which indicates that this
is a write cycle. The register address follows but instead of
sending the data to write, a new START condition is sent which
restarts the SBI state machine but the REG ADDR remains
initialized. The SLAVE ADDR must be sent again but this time
is followed with a 1 bit indicating that this is a read cycle. The
S SLAVE ADDR 0 A
ADDR MSB A
ADDR LSB
slave responds with the ACK bit and then drives the 8 data bits
of the register which has been read. After the eight data bits,
the slave does NOT assert the ACK bit. Instead, it tri-states the
SDAT signal so that the master can either ACK, or assert the
STOP condition.
7.6
Multiple Sequential READ
Multiple sequential registers can be read without having to
resend the SLAVE ADDR and register addresses. To read
multiple registers, simply continue to issue more SCLKs and
the imager will increment to the next higher register address.
After each byte that is transferred, the master must issue an
ACK by driving SDAT low if it wishes to continue to read more
data. The last byte that is read should not ACK, which allows
the master to drive SDAT low before releasing SCLK and then
release SDAT to cause a STOP condition to be recognized.
Alternatively, if the master does not drive SDAT low during the
ACK bit, the imager will release the SDAT line and the state
machine will return to its idle state waiting for the next START
condition.
The register ADDR is always retained at the current address
as long as power is applied to the chip. A register read at the
current address can be initiated at any time without having to
send the register ADDR first if the desired register is already
being addressed. Note that the register address is incremented on the rising edge of SCLK at the start of the ACK bit.

INTTIMEH and INTTIMEL are a register pair that make up a twelve-bit register. The Integration Time is the number of row times
that the pixels are exposed before being read out.
Note that the INTTIME register may be updated at any time during the frame. It is only used by the timing logic when at a specific
point in each frame (when the TINT reset pointer is at the first row of bottom dark pixels). The INTTIMEH register should utilize
the SYNC register so that it only gets updated during VSYNC. Note that when AutoExposure is enabled, this register is ignored.
When the INTTIME value is increased, it must only be increased by the number of bottom dark rows plus the number of VBLANK
rows or a split frame may be output. INTTIME can be decreased by any amount from one frame to the next. When INTTIME is
increased by a large number (the image pans from a bright to a dark scene), the user has the option of accepting the split frame
or increasing TINT by only the amount listed above. You can also increase the number of VBLANK rows to allow a rapid increase
in the number of rows.

The ENB bit of the TINTINC register enables the 50/60 flicker mode for the Auto Exposure unit. When TINTINC mode is enabled,
Tint is forced to be the nearest increment of the value programmed in TINTINC. If the Auto Exposure unit wants to set Tint to a
value less than TINTINC, it will be set to exactly the desired value. If the Auto Exposure unit wants to set Tint to a value larger
than TINTINC, then it will only set Tint to be an integer multiple of TINTINC.
TINTINC must be programmed with the number of row times that corresponds to either 1/100th of a second or 120th of a second.

AUTOENB causes the value of Tint to be computed based on the current image average. This is a relatively crude automatic
exposure control mode. The image average is computed in the ROI specified in the ROI registers.
INSIDE determines whether the image statistics are to be computed from the area inside the ROI or outside.
FAST determines the rate of adjustment of the auto exposure. When FAST=1, the exposure control is adjusted each frame to ½
of the difference between the current Tint and the calculated new Tint. When FAST=0, tint is adjusted by 1/8th of the difference.

In normal operation, BLKLVL is automatically computed by accumulating the value of the first 8096 pixels in the top dark rows.
This value is then subtracted from each pixel to remove the dark current if DARKMODE ENB = 1. The automatic computation of
BLKLVL can be overridden by setting the OVERRIDE bit. In this case, BLKLVL must be written with the desired black level to be

ENB enables an FPN mode where the dark rows across the top of the imager are averaged to compute a Black Level. The Black
Level is then subtracted from each pixel in the rest of the current frame. The dark values are clipped to acceptable values before
being accumulated. The digital gain should be adjusted slightly depending on the Black Level being subtracted to insure that
saturated pixels remain saturated. The Black Level can be manually controlled with the BLKLVL register.

The STATUS bit is a flag indicating that there are not enough dark pixels to properly compute the dark current in the current
operating mode. If STATUS = 1, then MOD should be increased until STATUS is 0. Otherwise the dark current subtraction will be
incorrect. Typically MOD will need to be increased when binning or subwindowing in X.
The MOD bits allow for a few different numbers of pixels to be accumulated. When the ABIN register is set to combine pixels in
the horizontal direction, the MOD bits must be changed to reduce the number of pixels used for the dark current subtraction.
There must be at least the desired number of dark pixels or the calculation will be incorrect. When HBIN by 2 is enabled, there
are only 1040 dark pixels per row and MOD must be set to 1. Additional dark rows can also be enabled with the DARKTOP register.

Function
Fixed Pattern Noise removal is enabled with the FPNMODE register.
FPNFLUSH mode is typically used to quickly stabilize the Column FPN data when changing modes, especially when switching
to or from one of the binning modes. When FPHFLUSH is a 1, the imager does not output data but will instead output black so
the back-end processor will have to discard all frames when FPNFLUSH is a 1. It it recommended to leave FPHNFLUSH a 1 for
one frame time to insure the Column FPN data is stable.
TESTSIGCOL selects an internal voltage signal as the reference signal for Column FPN data collections. When TESTSIGCOL
is a zero, the data is sourced from one of the bottom dark rows instead of the internal voltage. It is recommended to keep this
signal as a 1.
FPNCOLENB enables a sophisticated column noise removal algorithm. Each column has a value that is sampled from a test
voltage and averaged across all rows of vertical blanking. This accumulated value is stored for each column and is subtracted
from each pixel in that column.
COLMAX enables maximum mode for Column FPN removal. In this mode, the maximum value of the columns is searched for
and kept in a register. Each pixel is then computed with the following equation:
Pixel_out = Pixel_in + FPNmax – FPNcol
Note that this mode is susceptible to outlyers in column FPN data and will tend to oversaturate pixels as it adds a significant
offset. This offset is normally removed by the dark current removal logic later in the image pipeline.
When COLMAX is 0, then Average Mode Column FPN is enabled. This is the recommended mode of operation. In Average mode,
the average value of all of the columns is added to each pixel and the value in the FPN RAM is subtracted from each pixel. In
this mode, pixels are saturated both in the max and min direction.
Pixel_out = Pixel_in = FPNavg – FPNcol
COLCLIP is only used in Average Mode and lowers the saturation clip value for each pixel by the following equation:
Saturate_max = 0xfff – FPNavg
COLLPF is normally left at its default value of 1. The Low-Pass filter insures that the Column FPN data is accumulated slowly
across many frames to compensate for changes in temperature or voltage. COLLPF should be cleared to 0 to initialize the Column
FPN data for at least 1 frame. Otherwise it may take several seconds for the Column FPN data to stabilize to its correct value.
DISPLAYCOL is for testing purposes only and this bit should always remain 0 in normal operation. When 1, the values from the
COLFPN RAM are output on the first row of vertical blanking.

The HBIN register enables and sets the value for Horizontal Binning mode or skip mode. In effect, HBIN sets the horizontal zoom
factor. There are two stages of bin/skip. The first stage can bin by 2, 3, or 4 pixels. The second stage can only bin by 2 or 3. Each
stage can either BIN or Skip independently. The BIN1/2 bits determine if subsampling (skip) or binning it to be performed.
Subsampling requires less power but may result in a sparkling of the image if details line up with the active pixel or not. Binning
averages many pixels together which is a fairly compute intensive operation and thus requires more power. Horizontal Binning
is done digitally.
The WEIGHT bit is only used if binning is enabled for X3 or X4. If X3 binning is enabled, then a weighting is applied so that the
average can be obtained with a simple shift operation instead of a divide. When WEIGHT = 1, this weighting is changed for Red
or Green-Blue pixels and for Green–red or Blue pixels. This shifts the weight from the center of the superpixel to a more correct
spatial weighting. In bin X4 mode, if WEIGHT = 1 then a weighting is applied. WEIGHT has no effect on bin X2.
The SUM bit is also only used when binning is enabled. When SUM=1, then the result of the bin is not shifted down after adding
the pixels together. This results in a 2, 3, or 4X gain which can improve images in low-light conditions.

The VBIN register enables and sets the value for Vertical Binning mode. Vertical Binning causes the number of vertical pixels to
be averaged together. Horizontal and Vertical Binning as normally set to the same value at the same time. Binning causes the
pixels of the same color to be averaged together. This allows a full field-of-view image at a lower resolution to be output without
the “sparkling” effects of a sub-sampled windowing mode. Subsampling will significantly increase the frame rate and reduce the
overall power consumption. The choice of binning or subsampling is independent for both the analog and digital stages.
There are two stages of Vertical Binning, Analog and Digital. Analog Binning is done in the analog domain and Digital Binning is
done digitally. Analog binning requires a number of changes to the timing control registers.
The WEIGHT and SUM bits have the same meaning here as they do for digital binning (see the HBIN register) but only apply to
the digital binning stage. The analog stage is not affected by either the WEIGHT or SUM bits. Independent bits are provided here
but typically they should be set to the same value as the HBIN register.

PIXREPLENB enables the Pixel replacement algorithm that hides normal defects in the image array. Pixel Replacement must be
turned off when Binning or Boosting. Pixel replacement is not needed when Binning since multiple pixels are averaged together.
The maximum error a bad pixel can contribute is only ¼ of a pixel in bin by 3 where the bad pixel is in the center and thus weighted
2X. Do not turn off Pixel Replacement when subsampling.
THRESHOLD enables a 4-bit threshold mode for the pixel replacement algorithm. When THRESHOLD is a one, the difference
between the current pixel and the minimum or maximum of its adjacent same-color pixels must have a magnitude that extends
into the upper 4 bits of the 12-bit pixel. Thus, for a pixel to be replaced, the pixel difference must be more than 1/16th of a the full
scale. This insures that only significantly bad pixels are replaced. When THRESHOLD mode is a zero, then any pixel that is
greater than the maximum or less than the minimum is replaced. This occurs many thousands of time in a typical image.

EMBDSYNC enables embedded SYNC information to be embedded in the pixel data stream. When EMBDSYNC is disabled, the
HSYNC and VSYNC pulses must be used to identify when a frame or row begins and ends. When EMBDSYNC is enabled, then
the SYNC signals are identified when a pattern of 0xFF, 0x00, 0x00 is seen in the pixel stream. Any color values that are 0xFF
are clipped to 0xFE to insure that the data is not seen as a sync indicator. Following the SYNC pattern the following values indicate
what SYNC is present – 0x00 = Row Start, 0x01 = Row End, 0x02 = Frame Start, 0x03 = Frame End.
CONFIGROW enables a packet of data to be output on the PIXDATA bus during vertical blanking. The data is embedded in the
last row of vertical blanking and is prefixed with the code 0xFF, 0x00, 0x00, 0x0C. The data is always output as bytes of data
regardless of the setting of 8BMODE. Thus, when 8BMODE is 0, the data is broken up as 3 bytes of data every 2 pixels (12 bits).
When 8BMODE is 1, then the config row matches the data width. The following table lists the bytes of data in the config row:

8BMODE simply shifts the PIXDAT bus to the right by 4 bits. This allows a linear mapping of 12-bit to 8-bits by simply dividing
the pixel value by 16.
DARKENB enables the dark pixels to be output on the PIXDAT bus as if they were part of the image. This mode is usually used
for testing purposes but can be used to improve noise reduction if black-level correction is turned off and instead the function is
performed by the back-end processor.

The SYNCPOL register provides polarity control of the pixel data output pins. VSYNC will be high during Vertical Blanking time
when VSYNCPOL = 1. HSYNC will be high during the Horizontal Blanking time when HSYNCPOL = 1. The edge that PIXDATA
transitions on can be selected with the PCLKPOL bit. Normally PCLKPOL will want to be zero which sets the rising edge of
PIXCLK in the middle of a clock period where PIXDATA is stable. This will insure sufficient setup and hold times across a flex
cable to the back-end processor. If the back-end processor clocks data in on the falling edge of the clock or if there is a significant
amount of delay of PIXCLK, PCLKPOL may be programmed with a 1.
DATVAL = 1 changes the functionality of the HSYNC pin to be a “Data Valid” signal instead of a synchronization pulse. This mode
is normally used when MOD = 11 as PIXCLK is free-running and the back-end processor needs a signal to tell it when valid data
is present on the PIXDATA bus.
The MOD bits provide four different clocking modes that provide different options for clocking data into the back-end processor.
The simplest mode is MOD=00 where PIXCLK runs only when there is valid data on the PIXDATA bus. The problem with this
mode is that there are no clocks during HSYNC and VSYNC and many back-end processors need a few clocks during this time.
If the back-end processor needs to clock in HSYNC and VSYNC, use MOD = 01. This mode provides one extra clock each row
at the end of a row. This insures that HSYNC and VSYNC are sampled by the back-end processor. Note that this will increase
the size of the image by 1 pixel and this pixel must be ignored when doing image processing.
If PIXCLK needs to free-run during the syncs, use MOD = 10. In this mode it is assumed that the back-end processor knows that
it does not need to clock in the data when HSYNC is active. Note that PIXCLK will skip some pulses during the active portion of
a row if binning is enabled.
If PIXCLK needs to always free-run, then use MOD = 11. In this mode PIXCLK is the same as CLK except that it is delayed by
the internal clock buffers to match the output delay on the PIXDATA bus. In this mode DATVAL is normally set to 1 so that the
back-end processor knows which pixels have valid data or not. Some back-end processors are able to compute where the valid
pixels are in a row but care must be taken to properly align the data.

imager. If the bit is a 1, then the row is used in the dark current calculation. If the bit is 0, then the row is ignored. DARKTOP[0]
corresponds to row 0, DARKTOP[1] corresponds to row 1 and so on. At least 4 rows must be turned on to properly compute the
dark current. By default, the middle 4 rows are turned on which typically are the best for computing the dark current.

The GPIO register controls the state of the GPIO pin. The GPIO pin is a general purpose IO pin that is controlled via this register.
The default state of the GPIO pins is for a weak pulldown resistor to pull the pin to ground and insure a proper logic level even if
the pin is left unconnected.
The LEVEL bit is used to set the output level of the GPIO pin when TRISTATE is 0. Note that when this bit is read, it reflects the
current level on the GPIO pin and not the value programmed in the LEVEL bit of this register. Thus, when TRISTATE is a 1, this
bit is effectively a read-only bit that is the current logic level of the GPIO pin.
The TRISTATE bit is used to program the GPIO pin as either an input or an output. When TRISTATE = 0, the GPIO pin is an
output and the value programmed in the LEVEL bit will be driven onto the GPIO pin. If TRISTATE = 1, the GPIO pin is an input.
The KEEP bit will enable a weak bus keeper on the GPIO pin. If TRISTATE = 1 and PULLENB = 0, this pin should be programmed
as a 1 to insure a valid logic level is maintained on the GPIO pin. GPIO should not be allow to float.
The INENB bit enables the input. If TRISTATE=1 this bit should be a 1. This pin also gates the bus keeper function so it has to
be 1 for the bus keeper to be enabled.

PULLDIR determines the direction of the optional pull-up resistor. 0 = pull-down, 1 = pull-up.
The PULLENB bit enables an on-chip pull-up or pull-down resistor. PULLDIR selects if a pull-up or pull-down is selected.
DRV selects the drive strength of the output driver. 0 = 8 mA nominal drive, 1 = 2 mA low-power drive. The 2-mA drive strength
is recommended to keep power consumption low.
The VSEL bit must be programmed to match the power supply that Vddio is connected to. If Vddio is connected to a 1.8V supply,
then VSEL must be programmed with a 0. If Vddio is connected to a 2.8 to 3.3V supply, then VSEL must be programmed with a 1.

The PWRCTL register controls the power consumption of the CYIWOSC3000AA Imager. The Imager powers-up in normal active
mode ready to begin full operation once the registers have been initialized. The default state of PWRCTL corresponds to power
Mode 1 (Active).
Power Mode 2 (Standby) is achieved by setting the TRIIO bits in the PCLKIO and PIXIO registers. This tri-states the IO pins and
reduces power consumption. Power consumption is only slightly reduced however the imager is continuing to accumulate
statistics and ready to take an image on the very next frame.
Power Mode 3 (Full Standby) is achieved by setting the IMGDIS bit to a 1. In this mode, the imager is turned off and no video
data is produced and no statistics are computed. All registers retain their current state and are ready to begin image capture once
IMGDIS is cleared to 0. Power consumption is reduced as the timing signals to the image array are static and no data is flowing
through the digital logic. The PIX bus IOs are static as well. Note that since no statistics are being computed, the exposure control
and FPN algorithms will need several frames to stabilize before a valid image is ready to capture.

Function
0 = Not currently in VBLANK
1 = Imager is currently in VBLANK
Critical configuration registers have a shadow register in their write path. This allows these registers to be loaded with a new
value but it won't take effect until just before the next frame begins. When ENB is 0, the shadow register is disabled and access
is direct to the register. Note that changing many of the row/column registers during an active frame time will cause a bad frame
to be output. When ENB is 1, then any write to a register with a shadow register causes the write to be stored but not take effect
until the NextVsync bit is a 1 and VSYNC begins.
Note that register reads always come from the currently active register. When ENB = 1, after you write to a register, if you
immediately read the register you will get the old value, not the value you just wrote. Once NextVsync = 1 and VSYNC has
occurred, then the new value can be read from the register.
The VBLANK bit may be used to update a small number of registers during the vertical blanking time. This is a read only bit.
Software can simply poll this bit and wait until it is a one (or transitions to a one) and then write a few registers directly without
causing bad frames.
Once the ENB and the NextVsync bit are set, no register writes should be performed until the registers have been updated. The
ENB bit will be cleared to 0 when the registers are updated. There is a small chance that a write to a register will happen just as
the other registers are being updated at VSYNC and the write conflict will result in unpredictable operation.
Usage examples:
1. Initial power-up
a. The imager is currently off and we wish to configure the registers as quickly as possible.
b. ENB = 0, NextVsync = X (don't care but usually 0).
c. Write all configuration registers
d. Enable the back-end processor to begin searching for a VSYNC pulse to begin processing frame data. The first frame may
be a partial frame with bad data.
2. Change from video sub-windowed mode to full image capture mode
a. ENB = 1, NextVsync = 0
b. Write all registers that need to be updated for the new capture mode
c. NextVsync = 1
d. Wait until NextVsync = 0, which indicates that the registers have been updated. The next frame should begin immediately
and be in the new format. Do not write to any other registers while waiting for NextVsync to change to 0.
NOTE: Registers in Table 8-1 labeled with a 1 are controlled by the SYNC bit. Note that many of the other registers are effectively
SYNCed as they are only used by internal logic at specific times during a frame. See the individual register descriptions for more
details.

HiSENS™
This circuit provides reduced readout noise using circuitry both
inside and peripheral to the imaging area.
9.2
Power Saver Settings
There are three power modes on the sensor to provide a
balance of imager performance and power consumption, as
described in Table 9-1.
The imager default (power-up) setting is in Power Mode 1 but
will inhibit output video until it has stabilized to avoid displaying
bad frame data. Significant power savings can be obtained by
running the imager at a slower clock frequency, reducing the
active pixel area (subwindowing) or by sub-sampling the
image. This allows the imager to run in an active preview mode
at substantially reduced power levels but return briefly to a
high power mode when taking a full 3MP capture.
Selectable Frame Rate
Frame rate can be adjusted by a number of factors. The CLK
frequency sets the basic frame rate and can be as high as
48 MHz. To readout a full 3MP image in 1/14th of a second
requires a 48-MHz CLK. The frame rate can also be adjusted
by varying the number of Vblank rows. The number of Vblank
rows can be up to 4095, allowing for a wide range of frame
rates. Subwindowing will also increase the frame rate as fewer
rows need to be read out. Note that binning does not increase
the frame rate as the imager must still collect all of the pixels
but the data rate out of the pixel data bus is significantly lower
in these modes.
Windowing into a relatively small number of rows can increase
the frame rate for high-speed auto-focus applications.
Reading out just the middle third of the image area will
increase the frame rate by 3X. Decreasing the number of
columns does not change the frame rate as all pixels in a row
must be read out to keep the row timing consistent.

9.4
FPN Reduction
Column Fixed Pattern Noise Reduction: The imager
collects pattern data generated in the dark rows for fixed
pattern noise and computes correction values to reduce this
noise. A test voltage is applied to the ADCs during 16 rows of
VBLANK and the results are accumulated and stored in a
special Row Buffer. This offset is then subtracted digitally. This
subtraction is done to all pixels including the dark pixels.
Point Defect Correction: Pixels operating outside of the
response of their neighbors may be defective. The
CYIWOSC3000AA imager will compare the response of the
neighbor pixels and will replace the defective pixel with the
nearest same color. All of these modes can be disabled via
software.
9.5
Black Level Setting and Averaging
The electronic and dark current induced offsets that cause
black level errors will be removed on-chip. The imager will
collect statistics on the electronic black level from optically
shielded pixels. These statistics will provide an average value
for subtracting from active pixels. The first 8096 pixels in the
top 12 dark rows are accumulated and an average is calculated. The remaining pixels in the image have this value
subtracted from them. This algorithm has the advantage of
collecting statistics for the current frame and applying them
immediately which will improve quality as it will track changes
in Tint. Pixels that have the upper 4 MSbs set are not included
in the black level calculation. This insures that “hot” pixels are
ignored which might otherwise cause the average to be
unusually high. There is a mask register that allows any of the
12 rows to be not used in the black level calculation. This
allows certain rows to be excluded which are found to not be
truly black. Only four rows are typically needed for the black
level calculation.
9.6
Digital Gain per Color
A 12x12 multiplier can be applied to each of the four color
channels (R, Gr, Gb and B) individually via registers. The
default is to multiply by 1 which has no effect. These multipliers
provide digital gain typically used correct the responsivity of
the color masks. If the color value exceeds 12 bits after the
multiplication, then the color is saturated to the maximum
value. The multiplication factor is in a 12-bit register with a 4.8
fixed point format. The value is rounded to the nearest by
adding 128 to the result before shifting right by 8.
9.7
Exposure Control
The imager provides for both automatic and manual control of
the exposure or integration period. The exposure control
algorithm sets the imager base integration period to set the
average pixel value at a default or user specified level. In
addition to setting the desired image average, the user may
limit the integration period available to the automatic control.
These registers may be used to prevent the integration from
exceeding motion blur limits in dark environments.
9.8
Resolution Control
The imager contains several blocks to control the output
resolution and field of view (FOV). By combining these blocks,
Document #: 38-19009 Rev. *E
many combinations of resolution/FOV are available to the user
via register setting.
9.9
Sub-window Control
The imager can be read out at any sub-frame resolution on
Bayer boundaries (odd columns and even rows) down to 2H
X 2V pixels. The blanking time minimums are required. The
size of the sub-window is specified in the registers by setting
the coordinates of the corners. The location of the sub-window
can start at any Bayer boundary.
9.10
Analog On-chip Binning
Binning can be performed in the analog domain to independently combine pixels in the horizontal and vertical dimensions
with factors of 2, 3 (Vertical only) and 4 adjacent Bayer pixels.
By combining pixels the low-light signal-to-noise ratio is
increased. The imager architecture was tuned for on-chip
binning factors of 2, 3, and 4. Binning by 3 can only be done
in the vertical dimension. Analog Binning has the advantage
that it increases the frame rate. However, binning by more than
2X is not as flexible in analog as it is in digital. Analog binning
is also lower power than digital binning. Generally, analog
binning by 2 should be used whenever possible.
9.11
Digital On-chip Binning
The imager provides additional digital binning to support
reduced resolution output modes. Digital binning can be
performed in both the horizontal and vertical dimensions.
Vertical binning is limited to 2X and 4X. Horizontal binning can
be any combination of 2, 3, or 4X in two stages. Thus,
horizontal binning can be 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 9, 12, or 16X. There are
two pixel weighting modes for digital binning. The weighting for
each pixel can either be the normal 1:1 weighting, or a special
mode where the appropriate color of the Bayer pattern is
weighted more favorably based on the location in the
super-pixel. Subsampling can be performed instead of
binning, which increases the frame rate and lowers power
consumption, however the image may tend to “sparkle” due to
aliasing artifacts. Subsampling in the vertical dimension will
increase the frame rate however subsampling in the horizontal
dimension will not. It is recommended to subsample vertically
wherever possible and always use binning in the horizontal
dimension.
9.12
50-/60-Hz Flicker Reduction
Flicker reduction involves setting the Integration Time to be a
multiple of either 100 or 120 Hz. This will insure that in
relatively low-light situations where the lighting is likely to be
from fluorescent bulbs, the image does not “beat” with the
flicker of the fluorescent bulbs. Software must perform this
function and properly set the Integration Time to be a multiple
of 100 or 120 Hz.
9.13
Blanking Time, PCLK and Sync Polarity
The polarity of the HSYNC, VSYNC, and PCLK signals can be
inverted by setting the proper register. Additional HBlank
pixels and VBlank rows can be added to the image frame by
setting the appropriate registers.

Power-on Reset
The CYIWOSC3000AA powers up automatically to default
register mode operation as specified in this document. No
serial communications are required on power-up to initiate
image capture, the imager will output video imagery at full
resolution with associated sync signals. The RESET_N signal
should be asserted until both power supplies have reached
their proper voltage level and the CLK is stable.
9.15
On-chip Test Pattern Generation
A test pattern will be output from the imager when set by the
registers to provide a standard SMPTE color bar pattern. This
is to assist with system development and testing. A representation of the test pattern is shown in Figure 9-1 with RGB
values of 8-bit depth. The output of the test pattern will be in
raw Bayer form and each sample may be adjusted on chip
using the digital gain per color channel registers. A configuration row of data may optionally be inserted into row 0 of the
image. This configuration row contains data such as the
Frame Number. Tint value and other parameters. This mode
is only used for testing and debug.
9.16
Exposure Control Region of Interest (ROI)
The camera includes a region of interest feature that can be
used to influence the automatic control of the integration
period. The region is defined by specifying the upper left and
lower right corners of a rectangle using pixel row and column
numbers. The exposure calculations can generated with pixels
within the region or on those that lie outside the region.
9.17
Register Setting Sync Control
Most of the configuration registers have a shadow register that
will hold the new value until the next VSYNC. This insures that
all of the registers are updated at the same time and no bad
frames are output. See the definition of the SYNC register for
more details.

Preview and Video Mode
The imager generates a video signal at up to 14 fps (full frame)
with internally generated clocks and synchronization signals.
These synchronization signals are output to other devices
together with the processed image data.

Parallel Digital Interface
The CYIWOSC3000AA image sensor offers 8 and 12-bit
parallel digital interfaces. This interface is configured to
operate in a variety of modes to maximize compatibility with a
variety of DSP interfaces and other custom applications.
The imager samples and processes 12-bit data. If an 8-bit
output is selected, the 12-bit data is mapped to 8-bit either with
a fixed non-linear curve or linear mapping.
The Parallel Digital Output option will have the following output
modes:
1. 12-bit data out, with HSYNC, VSYNC, PCLK
2. 8-bit data out with HSYNC, VSYNC, PCLK
Figure 9-1. SMPTE Color Bars
Document #: 38-19009 Rev. *E
3. Each of the previously mentioned modes with embedded
sync. The HSYNC and VSYNC are embedded by substituting raw pixel values of assigned sync levels. This will allow
client devices to sync up to the timing codes in the data
stream.
