MT9V032
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ON Semiconductor MT9V032 is a 1/3−inch
wide−VGA format CMOS active−pixel digital image sensor
with global shutter and high dynamic range (HDR)
operation. The sensor has specifically been designed to
support the demanding interior and exterior surveillance
imaging needs, which makes this part ideal for a wide
variety of imaging applications in real−world environments.
This wide−VGA CMOS image sensor features ON
Semiconductor’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.
The active imaging pixel array is 752H x 480V. It
incorporates sophisticated camera functions on−chip—such
as binning 2 x 2 and 4 x 4, to improve sensitivity when
operating in smaller resolutions—as well as windowing,
column and row mirroring. It is programmable through a
simple two−wire serial interface.
The MT9V032 can be operated in its default mode or be
programmed for frame size, exposure, gain setting, and
other parameters. The default mode outputs a
wide−VGA−size image at 60 frames per second (fps).
An on−chip analog−to−digital converter (ADC) provides
10 bits per pixel. A 12−bit resolution companded for 10 bits
for small signals can be alternatively enabled, allowing more
accurate digitization for darker areas in the image.
In addition to a traditional, parallel logic output the
MT9V032 also features a serial low−voltage differential
signaling (LVDS) output. The sensor can be operated in a
stereo−camera, and the sensor, designated as a
stereo−master, is able to merge the data from itself and the
stereo−slave sensor into one serial LVDS stream.

area is surrounded with optically transparent dummy
columns and rows to improve image uniformity within the
active area. One additional active column and active row are
used to allow horizontally and vertically mirrored readout to
also start on the same color pixel.
The MT9V032 pixel array is configured as 782 columns
by 492 rows, shown in Figure 4. The left 26 columns and the
top eight rows of pixels are optically black and can be used
to monitor the black level. The black row data is used
internally for the automatic black level adjustment.

MT9V032
COLOR DEVICE LIMITATIONS
The color version of the MT9V032 does not support or
offers reduced performance for the following
functionalities.
Automatic Black Level Calibration
When the color bit is set (R0x0F[2]=1), the sensor uses
GREEN1 pixels black level correction value, which is
applied to all colors. To use calibration value based on all
dark pixels offset values, the color bit should be cleared.
Pixel Binning
Pixel binning is done on immediate neighbor pixels only;
no facility is provided to skip pixels according to a Bayer
pattern. Therefore, the result of binning combines pixels of
different colors. For more information, see “Pixel Binning”.
Other Limiting Factors
Black level correction and row−wise noise correction are
applied uniformly to each color. Automatic exposure and
gain control calculations are made based on all three colors,
not just the green luma channel. High dynamic range does
operate; however, ON Semiconductor strongly recommends
limiting use to linear operation if good color fidelity is
required.
Interlaced Readout
Interlaced readout yields one field consisting only of red
and green pixels and another consisting only of blue and
green pixels. This is due to the Bayer pattern of the CFA.

OUTPUT DATA FORMAT
The MT9V032 image data can be read out in a progressive
scan or interlaced scan mode. Valid image data is surrounded
by horizontal and vertical blanking, as shown in Figure 6.
The amount of horizontal and vertical blanking is
programmable through R0x05 and R0x06, respectively.
LINE_VALID is HIGH during the shaded region of the
figure. See “Output Data Timing” for the description of

Figure 7. Timing Example of Pixel Data
The PIXCLK is a nominally inverted version of the master
clock (SYSCLK). This allows PIXCLK to be used as a clock
to latch the data. However, when column bin 2 is enabled, the
PIXCLK is HIGH for one complete master clock master
period and then LOW for one complete master clock period;
when column bin 4 is enabled, the PIXCLK is HIGH for two
complete master clock periods and then LOW for two
complete master clock periods. It is continuously enabled,
even during the blanking period. Setting R0x74 bit[4] = 1
causes the MT9V032 to invert the polarity of the PIXCLK.
The parameters P1, A, Q, and P2 in Figure 8 are defined
in Table 4.

assumed that R0x0B is programmed with 523 rows. For
Simultaneous Mode, if the exposure time register (0x0B)
exceeds the total readout time, then vertical blanking is
internally extended automatically to adjust for the additional
integration exposure time required. This extended value is
not written back to R0x06 (vertical blanking). R0x06 can be
used to adjust frame to frame readout time. This register
does not affect the exposure time but it may extend the
readout time.
Sensor timing is shown above in terms of pixel clock and
master clock cycles (refer to Figure 7). The recommended
master clock frequency is 26.66 MHz. The vertical blanking
and total frame time equations assume that the number of
integration rows (bits 11 through 0 of R0x0B) is less than the
number of active rows plus blanking rows minus overhead
rows (R0x03 + R0x06 − 2). 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. In this example it is

4. The MT9V032 uses column parallel analog−to−digital converters, thus short row timing is not possible. The minimum total row time is 660
columns (horizontal width + horizontal blanking). The minimum horizontal blanking is 43. When the window width is set below 617, horizontal
blanking must be increased. The frame rate will not increase for row times less than 660 columns.

MT9V032
SERIAL BUS DESCRIPTION
Registers are written to and read from the MT9V032
through the two−wire serial interface bus. The MT9V032 is
a serial interface slave with four possible IDs (0x90, 0x98,
0xB0,and 0xB8) determined by the S_CTRL_ADR0 and
S_CTRL_ADR1 input pins. Data is transferred into the
MT9V032 and out through the serial data (SDATA) line. The
SDATA line is pulled up to VDD off−chip by a 1.5KW resistor.
Either the slave or master device can pull the SDATA line
• a start bit
• the slave device 8−bit address
• a(n) (no) acknowledge bit
• an 8−bit message
• a stop bit
down—the serial interface protocol determines which
device is allowed to pull the SDATA line down at any given
time. The registers are 16−bit wide, and can be accessed
through 16− or 8−bit two−wire serial interface sequences.
Protocol
The two−wire serial interface defines several different
transmission codes, as follows:
Sequence
sends a no−acknowledge bit. The MT9V032 allows for 8−bit
data transfers through the two−wire serial interface by
writing (or reading) the most significant 8 bits to the register
and then writing (or reading) the least significant 8 bits to
R0xF0 (240).
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 8−bit 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 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
8 bits at a time, with the slave sending an acknowledge bit
after each 8 bits. The MT9V032 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 register data 8 bits at a time. The master sends
an acknowledge bit after each 8−bit transfer. The register
address is auto−incremented after every 16 bits is
transferred. The data transfer is stopped when the master
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 HIGH−to−LOW transition of
the data line while the clock line is HIGH.
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 7 bits of address and 1 bit of direction. A “0” in
the LSB of the address indicates write mode, and a “1”
indicates read mode. As indicated above, the MT9V032
allows four possible slave addresses determined by the two
input pins, S_CTRL_ADR0 and S_CTRL_ADR1.

indicates an acknowledge bit by pulling the data line LOW

One data bit is transferred during each clock pulse. The
two−wire serial interface clock pulse is provided by the
master. The data must be stable during the HIGH period of
the serial clock—it can only change when the two−wire
serial interface clock is LOW. Data is transferred 8 bits at a
time, followed by an acknowledge bit.
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.
Acknowledge Bit
The master generates the acknowledge clock pulse. The
transmitter (which is the master when writing, or the slave

TWO−WIRE SERIAL INTERFACE SAMPLE READ AND WRITE SEQUENCES
16−Bit Write Sequence
A typical write sequence for writing 16 bits to a register
is shown in Figure 9. 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 16−bit data. After each
8−bit word is sent, 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.

clocks out the register data 8 bits at a time. The master sends
an acknowledge bit after each 8−bit 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.
A typical read sequence is shown in Figure 10. 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

(R0xF0). The register is not updated until all 16 bits have
been written. It is not possible to just update half of a register.
In Figure 11, a typical sequence for 8−bit writing is shown.
The second byte is written to the special register (R0xF0).
To be able to write 1 byte at a time to the register, a special
register address is added. The 8−bit write is done by first
writing the upper 8 bits to the desired register and then
writing the lower 8 bits to the special register address

user writes a 0xBEEF to the register lock register, all
registers are unlocked and any subsequent two−wire serial
interface writes to the register are committed.
Included in the MT9V032 is a register lock (R0xFE)
feature that can be used as a solution to reduce the
probability of an inadvertent noise−triggered two−wire
serial interface write to the sensor. All registers (or read
mode register—register 13 only) can be locked.
At power−up, the register lock defaults to a value of
0xBEEF, which implies that all registers are unlocked and
any two−wire serial interface writes to the register get
committed.
Lock Read More Register Only (R0x0D)
If a unique pattern (0xDEAF) to R0xFE is programmed,
any subsequent two−wire serial interface writes to register
13 are NOT committed. Alternatively, if the user writes a
0xBEEF to register lock register, register 13 is unlocked and
any subsequent two−wire serial interface writes to this
register are committed.

MT9V032
Shadowed Registers
• Shadowed
Some sensor settings cannot be changed during frame
readout. For example, changing the register Window Width
(R0x04) part way through frame readout results in
inconsistent LINE_VALID behavior. To avoid this, the
MT9V032 double buffers many registers by implementing
a “pending” and a “live” version. Two−wire serial interface
reads and writes access the pending register. The live
register controls the sensor operation. The value in the
pending register is transferred to a live register at a fixed
point in the frame timing, called “frame−start.” Frame−start
is defined as the point at which the first dark row is read out.
By default, this occurs four row times before
FRAME_VALID goes HIGH. To determine which registers
or register fields are double−buffered in this way, see the
“Shadowed” column in Table 8.
•
N = No. The register value is updated and used
immediately.
Y = Yes. The register value is updated at next frame
start. Frame start is defined as when the first dark row
is read out. By default this is four rows before
FRAME_VALID goes HIGH.
Read/Write
R = Read−only register/bit.
W = Read/Write register/bit.
Table 8 provides a detailed description of the registers. Bit
fields that are not identified in the table are read only.

MT9V032
FEATURE DESCRIPTION
Operational Modes
Master Mode
The MT9V032 works in master, snapshot, or slave mode.
In master mode the sensor generates the readout timing. In
snapshot mode it accepts an external trigger to start
integration, then generates the readout timing. In slave mode
the sensor accepts both external integration and readout
controls. The integration time is programmed through the
two−wire serial interface during master or snapshot modes,
or controlled through externally generated control signal
during slave mode.
There are two possible operation methods for master
mode: simultaneous and sequential. One of these operation
modes must be selected through the two−wire serial
interface.
Simultaneous Master Mode
In simultaneous master mode, the exposure period occurs
during readout. The frame synchronization waveforms are
shown in Figure13 and Figure 14. The exposure and readout
happen in parallel rather than sequentially, making this the
fastest mode of operation.

Sequential Master Mode
When exposure time is greater than the sum of vertical
blank and window height, the number of vertical blank rows
is increased automatically to accommodate the exposure
time.
In sequential master mode the exposure period is followed
by readout. The frame synchronization waveforms for
sequential master mode are shown in Figure15. The frame
rate changes as the integration time changes.

interface on R0x0B. After the frame’s integration period is
complete the readout process commences and the syncs and
data are output. Sensor in snapshot mode can capture a single
image or a sequence of images. The frame rate may only be
controlled by changing the period of the user supplied
EXPOSURE pulse train. The frame synchronization
waveforms for snapshot mode are shown in Figure 17.
In snapshot mode the sensor accepts an input trigger
signal which initiates exposure, and is immediately
followed by readout. Figure 16 shows the interface signals
used in snapshot mode. In snapshot mode, the start of the
integration period is determined by the externally applied
EXPOSURE pulse that is input to the MT9V032. The
integration time is preprogrammed via the two−wire serial

Slave Mode
The start and end of integration are controlled by
EXPOSURE and STFRM_OUT pulses, respectively. While
a STFRM_OUT pulse is used to stop integration, it is also
used to enable the readout process.
In slave mode, the exposure and readout are controlled
using the EXPOSURE, STFRM_OUT, and STLN_OUT
pins. When the slave mode is enabled, STFRM_OUT and
STLN_OUT become input pins.

MT9V032
It is recommended that the user program the vertical blank
register (R0x06) with a value of 4, and achieve additional
vertical blanking between frames by delaying the
application of the STFRM_OUT pulse.
The elapsed time between the rising edge of STLN_OUT
and the first valid pixel data is [horizontal blanking register
(R0x05) + 4] clock cycles.
After integration is stopped, the user provides
STLN_OUT pulses to trigger row readout. A full row of data
is read out with each STLN_OUT pulse. The user must
provide enough time between successive STLN_OUT
pulses to allow the complete readout of one row.
It is also important to provide additional STLN_OUT
pulses to allow the sensors to read the vertical blanking rows.

ON−CHIP BIASES
ADC Voltage Reference
The ADC voltage reference is programmed through
R0x2C, bits 2:0. The ADC reference ranges from 1.0V to
2.1V. The default value is 1.4V. The increment size of the
voltage reference is 0.1V from 1.0V to 1.6V (R0x2C[2:0]
values 0 to 6). At R0x2C[2:0] = 7, the reference voltage
jumps to 2.1V.
The effect of the ADC calibration does not scale with
VREF. Instead it is a fixed value relative to the output of the
analog gain stage. At default, one LSB of calibration equals
two LSB in output data (1LSBOffset = 2mV, 1LSBADC =
1mV).
It is very important to preserve the correct values of the
other bits in R0x2C. The default register setting is 0x0004.
V_Step Voltage Reference
This voltage is used for pixel high dynamic range
operations, programmable from R0x31 through R0x34.
Chip Version
Chip version registers R0x00 and R0xFF are read−only.

WINDOW CONTROL
Registers R0x01 column start, R0x02 Row Start, R0x03
window height (row size), and R0x04 window width
(column size) control the size and starting coordinates of the
window.
The values programmed in the window height and width
registers are the exact window height and width out of the
sensor. The window start value should never be set below
four.
To read out the dark rows set bit 6 of R0x0D. In addition,
bit 7 of R0x0D can be used to display the dark columns in
the image.

BLANKING CONTROL
Horizontal blanking and vertical blanking registers
R0x05 and R0x06 respectively control the blanking time in
a row (horizontal blanking) and between frames (vertical
blanking).
• Horizontal blanking is specified in terms of pixel
clocks.
• Vertical blanking is specified in terms of numbers of
rows.
The actual imager timing can be calculated using Table4
and Table 5 which describe “Row Timing and
FRAME_VALID/LINE_VALID signals.” The minimum
number of vertical blank rows is 4.

PIXEL INTEGRATION CONTROL
Total Integration
R0x0B Total Shutter Width (In Terms of Number of
Rows)
is changed through the two−wire serial interface while
FRAME_VALID is asserted for frame n, the first frame
output using the new integration time is frame (n + 2).
Similarly, when automatic exposure control is enabled, any
change to the integration time for frame n first appears in
frame (n + 2) output.
The sequence is as follows:
1. During frame n, the new integration time is held in
the R0x0B live register.
2. At the start of frame (n + 1), the new integration
time is transferred to the exposure control module.
Integration for each row of frame (n + 1) has been
completed using the old integration time. The
earliest time that a row can start integrating using
the new integration time is immediately after that
row has been read for frame (n + 1). The actual
time that rows start integrating using the new
integration time is dependent on the new value of
the integration time.
3. When frame (n + 1) is read out, it is integrated
using the new integration time. If the integration
time is changed (R0x0B written) on successive
frames, each value written is applied to a single
frame; the latency between writing a value and it
affecting the frame readout remains at two frames.
However, when automatic exposure control is
disabled, if the integration time is changed through
the two−wire serial interface after the falling edge
of FRAME_VALID for frame n, the first frame
output using the new integration time becomes
frame (n + 3).
This register (along with the window width and horizontal
blanking registers) controls the integration time for the
pixels.
The actual total integration time, tINT, is:
t INT + (Number of rows of integration x row time) ) overhead
(eq. 1)
where:
• The number of rows integration is equal to the result of
automatic exposure control (AEC) which may vary
from frame to frame, or, if AEC is disabled, the value in
R0x0B
• Row time = (R0x04 + R0x05) master clock periods
• Overhead = (R0x04 + R0x05 – 255) master clock
periods
Typically, the value of R0x0B (total shutter width) is
limited to the number of rows per frame (which includes
vertical blanking rows), such that the frame rate is not
affected by the integration time. If R0x0B is increased
beyond the total number of rows per frame, it is required to
add additional blanking rows using R0x06 as needed. A
second constraint is that tINT must be adjusted to avoid
banding in the image from light flicker. Under 60Hz flicker,
this means frame time must be a multiple of 1/120 of a
second. Under 50Hz flicker, frame time must be a multiple
of 1/100 of a second.

• R0x0A shutter width control
• R0x31–R0x34 V_Step voltages
Exposure Indicator
The exposure indicator is controlled by:
• R0x1B LED_OUT control
The MT9V032 provides an output pin, LED_OUT, to
indicate when the exposure takes place. When R0x1B bit 0
is clear, LED_OUT is HIGH during exposure. By using
R0x1B, bit 1, the polarity of the LED_OUT pin can be
inverted.
In the MT9V032, high dynamic range (that is, R0x0F, bit
6 = 1) is achieved by controlling the saturation level of the
pixel (HDR or high dynamic range gate) during the exposure
period. The sequence of the control voltages at the HDR gate
is shown in Figure 21. After the pixels are reset, the step
voltage, V_Step, which is applied to HDR gate, is set up at
V1 for integration time t1 then to V2 for time t2, then V3 for
time t3, and finally it is parked at V4, which also serves as
an antiblooming voltage for the photodetector. This
sequence of voltages leads to a piecewise linear pixel
response, illustrated (in approximates) in Figure 21.

Figure 22. Sequence of Voltages in a Piecewise Linear Pixel Response
The parameters of the step voltage V_Step which takes
values V1, V2, and V3 directly affect the position of the knee
points in Figure 22.
Light intensities work approximately as a reciprocal of the
partial exposure time. Typically, t1 is the longest exposure,
t2 shorter, and so on. Thus the range of light intensities is
shortest for the first slope, providing the highest sensitivity.
The register settings for V_Step and partial exposures are:
V1 = R0x31, bits 4:0
V2 = R0x32, bits 4:0
V3 = R0x33, bits 4:0
V4 = R0x34, bits 4:0
tINT = t1 + t2 + t3
There are two ways to specify the knee points timing, the
first by manual setting (default) and the second by automatic
knee point adjustment.
When the auto adjust enabler is set to HIGH (LOW by
default), the MT9V032 calculates the knee points
automatically using the following equations:
t 1 + t INT * t 2 * t 3
(eq. 2)
åt 2 + t INTx(1ń2) R0x0A,bits3:0
(eq. 3)
åt 3 + t INTx(1ń2) R0x0A,bits7:4
(eq. 4)
As a default for auto exposure, t2 is 1/16 of tINT, t3 is 1/64
of tINT.
www.onsemi.com
38
MT9V032
When the auto adjust enabler is disabled (default), t1, t2,
and t3 may be programmed through the two−wire serial
interface:
t 1 + (R0x08, bits 14:0)
(eq. 5)
t 2 + (R0x09, bits 14:0) * (R0x08,bits 14:0)
(eq. 6)
t 3 + t INT * t 1 * t 2
(eq. 7)
Variable ADC Resolution
By default, ADC resolution of the sensor is 10−bit.
Additionally, a companding scheme of 12−bit into 10−bit is
enabled by the R0x1C (28). This mode allows higher ADC
resolution which means less quantization noise at low−light,
and lower resolution at high light, where good ADC
quantization is not so critical because of the high level of the
photon’s shot noise.
tINT may be based on the manual setting of R0x0B or the
result of the AEC. If the AEC is enabled then the auto knee
adjust must also be enabled.

GAIN SETTINGS
Changes to Gain Settings
When the digital gain settings (R0x80–R0x98) are
changed, the gain is updated on the next frame start.
However, the latency for an analog gain change to take effect
depends on the automatic gain control.
If automatic gain control is enabled (R0xAF, bit 1 is set to
HIGH), the gain changed for frame n first appears in frame
(n + 1); if the automatic gain control is disabled, the gain
changed for frame n first appears in frame (n + 2).
Both analog and digital gain change regardless of whether
the integration time is also changed simultaneously.

Analog Gain
Analog gain is controlled by:
For values 16–31: each LSB increases analog gain
0.0625v/v. A value of 16 = 1X gain. Range: 1X to 1.9375X.
For values 32–64: each 2 LSB increases analog gain
0.125v/v (that is, double the gain increase for 2 LSB).
Range: 2X to 4X. Odd values do not result in gain increases;
the gain increases by 0.125 for values 32, 34, 36, and so on.
• R0x35 global gain
The formula for gain setting is:
Gain + Bits[6 : 0] x 0.0625
(eq. 8)
The analog gain range supported in the MT9V032 is
1X–4X with a step size of 6.25 percent. To control gain
manually with this register, the sensor must NOT be in AGC
mode. When adjusting the luminosity of an image, it is
recommended to alter exposure first and yield to gain
increases only when the exposure value has reached a
maximum limit.

In normal operation, the black level calibration
value/offset correction value is calculated at the beginning
of each frame and can be read through the two−wire serial
interface from R0x48. This register is an 8−bit signed two’s
complement value.
However, if R0x47, bit 0 is set to “1,” the calibration value
in R0x48 may be manually set to override the automatic
black level calculation result. This feature can be used in
conjunction with the “show dark rows” feature (R0x0D, bit
6) if using an external black level calibration circuit.
The offset correction voltage is generated according to the
following formulas:
The automatic black level calibration measures the
average value of pixels from 2 dark rows (1 dark row if row
bin 4 is enabled) of the chip. (The pixels are averaged as if
they were light−sensitive and passed through the appropriate
gain.)
This row average is then digitally low−pass filtered over
many frames (R0x47, bits 7:5) to remove temporal noise and
random instabilities associated with this measurement.
Then, the new filtered average is compared to a minimum
acceptable level, low threshold, and a maximum acceptable
level, high threshold.
If the average is lower than the minimum acceptable level,
the offset correction voltage is increased by a programmable
offset LSB in R0x4C. (Default step size is 2 LSB Offset =
1 ADC LSB at analog gain = 1X.)
If it is above the maximum level, the offset correction
voltage is decreased by 2 LSB (default).
Offset Correction Voltage + (8 * bit signed twoȀs complement calibration value, * 127to127) x 0.5mV
(eq. 12)
ADC input voltage + (Pixel Output Voltage ) Offset Correction Voltage) x Analog Gain
(eq. 13)
Row−wise Noise Correction
correction is in addition to the general black level correction
applied to the whole sensor frame and cannot be used to
replace the latter. The dark average is subtracted from each
pixel belonging to the same row, and then a positive constant
is added (R0x72, bits 7:0). This constant should be set to the
dark level targeted by the black level algorithm plus the
noise expected on the measurements of the averaged values
from dark columns; it is meant to prevent clipping from
negative noise fluctuations.
Row−wise noise correction is controlled by the following
registers:
• R0x70 row noise control
• R0x72 row noise constant
• R0x73 dark column start
When the row−wise noise cancellation algorithm is
enabled, the average value of the dark columns read out is
used as a correction for the whole row. The row−wise
Pixel value + ADC value * dark column average ) row noise constant
(eq. 14)
R0x73 is used to indicate the starting column address of
dark pixels that the row−noise correction algorithm uses for
calculation. In the MT9V032, dark columns which may be
used are 759–776. R0x73 is used to select the starting
column for the calculation.
One additional note in setting the row−noise correction
register:
On a per−row basis, the dark column average is calculated
from a programmable number of dark columns (pixels)
values (R0x70, bits 3:0). The default is 10 dark columns. Of
these, the maximum and minimum values are removed and
then the average is calculated. If R0x70, bits 3:0 are set to
“0” (2 pixels), it is essentially equivalent to disabling the
dark average calculation since the average is equal to “0”
after the maximum and minimum values are removed.

MT9V032
Automatic exposure control (AEC) and automatic gain
control (AGC) can be individually enabled or disabled by
R0xAF. When AEC is disabled (R0xAF[0] = 0), the sensor
uses the manual exposure value in R0x0B. When AGC is
disabled (R0xAF[1] = 0), the sensor uses the manual gain
value in R0x35. See ON Semiconductor Technical Note
TN−09−81, “MT9V032 AEC and AGC Functions,” for
further details.
This is to ensure the column pointer does not go beyond
the limit the MT9V032 can support.
Automatic Gain Control and Automatic Exposure
Control
The integrated AEC/AGC unit is responsible for ensuring
that optimal auto settings of exposure and (analog) gain are
computed and updated every frame.

The exposure is measured in row−time by reading
R0xBB. The exposure range is 1 to 2047. The gain is
measured in gain−units by reading R0xBA. The gain range
is 16 to 63 (unity gain = 16 gain−units; multiply by 1/16 to
get the true gain).
When AEC is enabled (R0xAF[0] = 1), the maximum auto
exposure value is limited by R0xBD; minimum auto
exposure is fixed at 1 row.
When AGC is enabled (R0xAF[1] = 1), the maximum
auto gain value is limited by R0x36; minimum auto gain is
fixed to 16 gain−units.
The exposure control measures current scene luminosity
and desired output luminosity by accumulating a histogram
of pixel values while reading out a frame. The desired
exposure and gain are then calculated from this for
subsequent frame.
The RC circuit for the MT9V032 uses a 10kW resistor and
a 0.1mF capacitor. The rise time for the RC circuit is 1ms
maximum.
Soft Reset of Logic
Soft reset of logic is controlled by:
• R0x0C reset
Bit 0 is used to reset the digital logic of the sensor while
preserving the existing two−wire serial interface
configuration. Furthermore, by asserting the soft reset, the
sensor aborts the current frame it is processing and starts
a new frame. Bit 1 is a shadowed reset control register bit to
explicitly reset the automatic gain and exposure control
feature.
These two bits are self−resetting bits and also return to “0”
during two−wire serial interface reads.
Pixel Clock Speed
STANDBY Control
The pixel clock speed is same as the master clock
(SYSCLK) at 26.66 MHz by default. However, when
column binning 2 or 4 (R0x0D, bit 2 or 3) is enabled, the
pixel clock speed is reduced by half and one−fourth of the
master clock speed respectively. See “Read Mode Options”
and “Column Binning” for additional information.
The sensor goes into standby mode by setting STANDBY
to HIGH. Once the sensor detects that STANDBY is
asserted, it completes the current frame before disabling the
digital logic, internal clocks, and analog power enable
signal. To release the sensor from the standby mode, reset
www.onsemi.com

STANDBY back to LOW. The LVDS must be powered to
ensure that the device is in standby mode. See
“Appendix B – Power−On Reset and Standby Timing” for
more information on standby.
continues until R0x0E bit 0 is cleared to return to normal
operation.
In some applications when monitor mode is enabled, the
purpose of capturing frames is to calibrate the gain and
exposure of the scene using automatic gain and exposure
control feature. This feature typically takes less than 10
frames to settle. In case a larger number of frames is needed,
the value of R0xC0 may be increased to capture more
frames.
During the sleep period, none of the analog circuitry and
a very small fraction of digital logic (including
a five−minute timer) is powered. The master clock
(SYSCLK) is therefore always required.
Monitor Mode Control
Monitor mode is controlled by:
• R0x0E monitor mode enable
• R0xC0 monitor mode image capture control
The sensor goes into monitor mode when R0x0E bit 0 is
set to HIGH. In this mode, the sensor first captures
a programmable number of frames (R0xC0), then goes into
a sleep period for five minutes. The cycle of sleeping for five
minutes and waking up to capture a number of frames

operation increases SNR but decreases resolution.
Enabling row bin2 and row bin4 improves frame rate by
2x and 4x respectively. The feature of column binning does
not increase the frame rate in less resolution modes.
In addition to windowing mode in which smaller
resolution (CIF, QCIF) is obtained by selecting small
window from the sensor array, the MT9V032 also provides
the ability to show the entire image captured by pixel array
with smaller resolution by pixel binning. Pixel binning is
based on combining signals from adjacent pixels by
averaging. There are two options: binning 2 and binning 4.
When binning 2 is on, 4 pixel signals from 2 adjacent rows
and columns are combined. In binning 4 mode, 16 pixels are
combined from 4 adjacent rows and columns. The image

consequently, the number of rows read out is half what is set

field is read out; if row start address is odd, the odd field is

writes through the two−wire serial interface are done in such
a way that both sensors can get their configuration updates
at once. The inter−sensor serial link is designed in such a
way that once the slave PLL locks and the data−dly,
shft−clk−dly and stream−latency−sel are configured, the
master sensor streams good stereo content irrespective of
any variation voltage and/or temperature as long as it is
within specification. The configuration values of data−dly,

sensor is able to reproduce 8−bit pixel data from each sensor
(with embedded LINE_VALID and FRAME_VALID) and

to extract LINE_VALID and FRAME_VALID from the

When LVDS mode is enabled along with column binning
(bin 2 or bin 4, R0x0D[3:2]), the packet size remains the
same but the serial pixel data stream repeats itself depending
on whether 2X or 4X binning is set:
• For bin 2, LVDS outputs double the expected data
(pixel 0,0 is output twice in sequence, followed by pixel
0,1 twice, . . .).
• For bin 4, LVDS outputs 4 times the expected data
(pixel 0,0 is output 4 times in sequence followed by
pixel 0,1 times 4, . . .).
The receiving hardware will need to undersample the
output stream getting data either every 2 clocks (bin 2) or
every 4 (bin 4) clocks.
If the sensor provides a pixel whose value is 0,1, 2, or 3
(that is, the same as a reserved word) then the outgoing serial
pixel value is switched to 4

Propagation Delays for PIXCLK and Data Out Signals
Propagation Delays for FRAME_VALID and
LINE_VALID Signals
The pixel clock is inverted and delayed relative to the
master clock. The relative delay from the master clock
(SYSCLK) rising edge to both the pixel clock (PIXCLK)
falling edge and the data output transition is typically 7ns.
Note that the falling edge of the pixel clock occurs at
approximately the same time as the data output transitions.
See Table 14 for data setup and hold times.
The LINE_VALID and FRAME_VALID signals change
on the same rising master clock edge as the data output. The
LINE_VALID goes HIGH on the same rising master clock
edge as the output of the first valid pixel’s data and returns
LOW on the same master clock rising edge as the end of the
output of the last valid pixel’s data.
As shown in the Output Data Timing, FRAME_VALID
goes HIGH 143 pixel clocks before the first

NOTES: All specifications address operation is at TA = 25°C (±3°C) and supply voltage = 3.3V. Image sensor was tested without a lens.
Multiple images were captured and analyzed.
Setup: VDD = VAA = VAAPIX = LVDSVDD = 3.3V. Testing was done with default frame timing and default register settings, with
the exception of AEC/AGC, row noise correction, and auto black level, which were disabled.
Performance definitions are detailed in the following sections.
Test 1: Sensitivity
Test 3: Photo Response Nonuniformity (PRNU)
A flat−field light source (90 lux, color temperature
4400K, broadband, w/ IR cut filter) is used as an
illumination source. Signals are measured in LSB on the
sensor output. A series of four frames are captured and
averaged to obtain a scalar sensitivity output code.
A flat−field light source (90 lux, color temperature
4400K, broadband, with IR cut filter) is used as an
illumination source. Signals are measured in LSB on the
sensor output. Two series of four frames are captured and
averaged (pixel−by−pixel) into one average frame, one
series is captured under illuminated conditions, and one is
captured in the dark. PRNU is expressed as a percentage
relating the standard deviation of the average frames
difference (illuminated frame − dark frame) to the average
illumination level:
Test 2: Dark Signal Nonuniformity (DSNU)
The image sensor is held in the dark. Analog gain is
changed to the maximum setting of 4X. Signals are
measured in LSB on the sensor output. A series of four
frames are captured and averaged (pixel−by−pixel) into one
average frame. DSNU is calculated as the standard deviation
of this average frame.

Test 5: Signal−to−Noise Ratio
A flat−field light source (90 lux, color temperature

illumination source. Signals are measured in LSB on the
sensor output. Two consecutive illuminated frames are
captured. Temporal noise is calculated as the average pixel

The signal−to−noise ratio is calculated as the ratio of the
average signal level to the temporal noise according to the
following formula:
Where Sillumination (i) is the signal measured for the i−th pixel
from the average illuminated frame, Sdark is the signal
measured for the i−th pixel from the average dark frame, and
Np is the total number of pixels contained in the array.
Test 4: Dynamic Range
A temporal noise measurement is made with the image
sensor in the dark and analog gain changed to the maximum
setting of 4X. Signals are measured in LSB on the sensor
output. Two consecutive dark frames are captured.

APPENDIX A − SERIAL CONFIGURATIONS
With the LVDS serial video output, the deserializer can be
up to 8 meters from the sensor. The serial link can save on
the cabling cost of 14 wires (DOUT[9:0], LINE_VALID,
FRAME_VALID, PIXCLK, GND). Instead, just three wires
(two serial LVDS, one GND) are sufficient to carry the video
signal.
SER_DATAOUT_N must be connected to a deserializer
(clocked at approximately the same system clock
frequency).
Figure 46 shows how a standard off−the−shelf deserializer
(National Semiconductor DS92LV1212A) can be used to
retrieve the standard parallel video signals of DOUT(9:0),
LINE_VALID and FRAME_VALID.

Figure 47 shows how a standard off−the−shelf deserializer

and slave sensors. Additional logic is required to extract out
LINE_VALID and FRAME_VALID embedded within the
pixel data stream.

12. Broadcast WRITE to issue a soft reset (set
R0x0C[0] = 1 followed by R0x0C[0] = 0).
NOTE: The stereo_error_flag is set if a mismatch has
occurred at a reserved byte (slave and master
sensor’s codes at this reserved byte must match).
If the flag is set, steps 11 and 12 are repeated
until the stereo_error_flag remains cleared.
Typical configuration of the master and slave sensors:
1. Power up the sensors.
2. Broadcast WRITE to de−assert LVDS
power−down (set R0xB1[1] = 0).
3. Individual WRITE to master sensor putting its
internal PLL into bypass mode (set R0xB1[0] = 1).
4. Broadcast WRITE to both sensors to set the
stereoscopy bit (set R0x07[5] = 1).
5. Make sure all resolution, vertical blanking,
horizontal blanking, window size, and AEC/AGC
configurations are done through broadcast WRITE
to maintain lockstep.
6. Broadcast WRITE to enable LVDS driver (set
R0xB3[4] = 0).
7. Broadcast WRITE to enable LVDS receiver (set
R0xB2[4] = 0).
8. Individual WRITE to master sensor, putting its
internal PLL into bypass mode (set R0xB1[0] = 1).
9. Individual WRITE to slave sensor, enabling its
internal PLL (set R0xB1[0] = 0).
10. Individual WRITE to slave sensor, setting it as a
stereo slave (set R0x07[6] = 1).
11. Individual WRITEs to master sensor to minimize

Broadcast and Individual Writes for Stereoscopic
Topology
In stereoscopic mode, the two sensors are required to run
in lockstep. This implies that control logic in each sensor is
in exactly the same state as its pair on every clock. To ensure
this, all inputs that affect control logic must be identical and
arrive at the same time at each sensor.
These inputs include:
• system clock
• system reset
• two−wire serial interface clk − SCL
• two−wire serial interface data − SDA

allows the host to perform either a broadcast or a one−to−one
access.
Broadcast WRITES are performed by setting the same
S_CTRL_ADR input bit for both slave and master sensor.
Individual WRITES are performed by setting opposite
S_CTRL_ADR input bit for both slave and master sensor.
Similarly, individual READs are performed by setting
opposite S_CTRL_ADR input bit for both slave and master
sensor.
The setup in Figure 48 shows how the two sensors can
maintain lockstep when their configuration registers are
written through the two−wire serial interface. A WRITE to
configuration registers would either be broadcast
(simultaneous WRITES to both sensors) or individual
(WRITE to just one sensor at a time). READs from
configuration registers would be individual (READs from
just one sensor at a time).

sensor is hardwired. The other is controlled by the host. This

1. All output signals are defined during initial power−up with RESET# held LOW without SYSCLK being active. To properly
reset the rest of the sensor, during initial power−up, assert RESET# (set to LOW state) for at least 750ns after all power
supplies have stabilized and SYSCLK is active (being clocked). Driving RESET# to LOW state does not put the part in
a low power state.
2. Before using two−wire serial interface,wait for 10 SYSCLK rising edges after RESET# is de−asserted.
3. Once the sensor detects that STANDBY has been asserted, it completes the current frame readout before entering
standby mode. The user must supply enough SYSCLKs to allow a complete frame raedout. See Table 4, “Frame Time,”
for more information.
4. In standby, all video data and synchronization output signals are High−Z.
5. In standby, the two−wire serial interface is not active.

maintaining STANDBY assertion for a minimum
of one frame period.
2. Asserting STANDBY at the end of valid frame
readout (falling edge of FRAME_VALID) and
maintaining STANDBY assertion for a minimum
of [5 + R0x06] row−times.
When STANDBY is asserted during the vertical blanking
period (FRAME_VALID is LOW), the STANDBY signal
must not change state between [Vertical Blanking Register
(R0x06) − 5] row−times and [Vertical Blanking Register
+ 5] row−times after the falling edge of FRAME_VALID.
STANDBY cannot be asserted at any time. If STANDBY
is asserted during a specific window within the vertical
blanking period, the MT9V032 may enter a permanent
standby state. This window (that is, dead zone) occurs prior
to the beginning of the new frame readout. The permanent
standby state is identified by the absence of the
FRAME_VALID signal on frame readouts. Issuing a
hardware reset (RESET# set to LOW state) will return the
image sensor to default startup conditions.
This dead zone can be avoided by:
1. Asserting STANDBY during the valid frame
readout time (FRAME_VALID is HIGH) and
