The MCM20027 is a fully integrated, high performance CMOS image sensor with features such as integrated timing,
control, and analog signal processing for digital imaging applications. The part provides designers a complete imaging solution with a monolithic image capture and processing engine thus making it a true “camera on a chip”. System benefits enable design of smaller, portable, low cost and low power systems. Thereby making the product
suitable for a variety of consumer applications including still/full motion imaging, security/surveillance, and automotive among others.
The imaging pixels are based on active CMOS pixels using pinned photodiodes that are realized using Motorola’s
sub-micron ImageMOSTM technology. A maximum frame rate of 10 FPS at full resolution can be achieved, further
the frame rate is completely adjustable without adjusting the system clock. Each pixel on the sensor is individually
addressable allowing the user to control “Window of Interest” (WOI) panning and zooming. Control of sub-sampling, resolution, exposure, gain, and other image processing features is accomplished via a two pin I2C interface.
The sensor is run by supplying a single Master Clock. The sensor output is 10 digital bits providing wide dynamic
range images.

1.0 MCM20027 Overview
The MCM20027 is a solid state CMOS Active CMOS
Imager (ACITM) that integrates the functionality of a
complete analog image acquisition, digitizer, and digital
signal processing system on a single chip. The image
sensor comprises a format pixel array with 1280x1024
active elements. The image size is fully programmable
to user defined windows of interest. The pixels are on a
6.0µm pitch. High sensitivity and low noise are a characteristic of the pinned “shared diffusion” photodiode architecture utilized in the pixels. Standard microlenses
further enhance the sensitivity. The sensor is available
with Bayer patterned Color Filter Arrays (CFAs) for color
output or as a monochrome imager.
Integrated timing and programming controls allow video
or still image capture modes.Frame rates are programmable while keeping Master Clock frequency constant.
User programmable row and column start/stop allow
windowing to a minimum 1x1 pixel window (see “Active
Window of Interest Control” on page 12). Windowing
can also be performed by subsampling in multiple pixel
increments to allow digital zoom (see “Active Window
Sub-sampling Control” on page 12).
The analog video output of the pixel array is processed
by an on chip analog signal processing pipeline. Correlated Double Sampling (see “Correlated Double Sampling (CDS)” on page 15) eliminates the sensor reset
noise without the need to capture and subtract a reset
frame per live video frame. The Frame Rate Clamp
(FRC) enables real time optical black level calibration
and offset correction (see “Frame Rate Clamp (FRC)”
on page 15). The programmable analog gain consists of
exposure or global gain to map the signal swing to the
ADC input range, and white balance gain to perform color white balance in the analog domain. The ASP signal
chain consists of :
(1) Column op-amp(1.5X fixed gain)
(2) Column DOVA (1.5X fixed gain)
(3) White Balance PGA (0.88-2.82X)
(4) Global PGA (0.67X - 5.92X)
(5) Global DOVA (2.0X fixed gain)
These Digitally Programmable Amplifiers (DPGAs) allow real time color gain correction for Auto White Balance (see “White Balance Control PGA” on page 16) as
well as global gain adjustment (see “Exposure Global
Gain PGA” on page 16); offset calibration (see “Pro-
Revision 8.0 - 28 November 2001 :
MCM20027
grammable Per-Column Offset” on page 16 and “Global
Digital Offset Voltage Adjust (DOVA)” on page 19) can
be done on a per column basis and globally. This percolumn offset correction can be applied by using stored
values in the on chip registers. A 10-bit Redundant
Signed Digit (RSD) ADC converts the analog data to a
10-bit digital word stream. The fully differential analog
signal processing pipeline serves to improve noise immunity, signal to noise ratio, and system dynamic
range.
The sensor uses an industry standard two line I 2C complaint serial interface. (see page 26). The MCM20027
operates with a single 3.3V power supply ( see “Electrical Characteristics” on page 53) with no additional biases and requires only a single Master Clock for operation
upto 13.5MHz. It is housed in a 48 pin ceramic LCC
package (see “MCM20027 Packaging Information” on
page 69).
The MCM20027 is designed taking into consideration
interfacing requirements to standard video encoders. In
addition to the 10 bit bayer encoded data stream, the
sensor outputs the valid frame, line and pixel sync signals needed for encoding. The sensor interfaces with a
variety of commercially available video image processors to allow encoding into various standard video formats.
The MCM20027 is an elegant and extremely flexible
single chip solution that simplifies a system designer’s
tasks of image sensing, processing, digital conversion,
and digital signal processing to a high performance, low
cost, low power IC. One that supports among others a
wide range of low power, portable consumer digital imaging applications.
2.0 MCM20027 Architecture
2.1 Pixel Architecture
The MCM20027 ImageMOSTM (1) sensor comprises of
a 1280 x 1024 active pixel array and supports progressive scan mode.
The MCM20027 utilizes the Kodak patented “Shared
Floating Diffusion” pixel design 3. This design enables
two adjacent Row pixels‘ photodiodes to share the
same floating diffusion transistor. (see Figure 2, on
page 8).

SEMICONDUCTOR TECHNICAL DATA
The basic operation of the pixel relies on the photoelectric effect where due to its physical properties silicon is
able to detect photons of light. The photons generate
electron-hole pairs in direct proportion to the intensity
and wavelength of the incident illumination. The application of an appropriate bias allows the user to collect
the electrons and meter the charge in the form of a useful parameter such as voltage.
sion and Row Select gate controls. In addition all pixels
have common supply (VDD) and ground (VSS) connections. An optimized cell architecture provides enhancements such as noise reduction, fill factor maximizations,
and antiblooming. The use of pinned photodiodes (2)
and proprietary transfer gate devices in the photoelements enables enhanced sensitivity in the entire visual
spectral range and a lag free operation.
The pixel architecture also requires all pixels in a row to
have common Reset , Transfer 1 and 2, Floating diffu-

How it works?
In brief, initially during Integration @T=0, both Transfer
Gates 1 and 2 and the Reset Gate is Open (On-Active
High). Transfer Gate 1 then Closes (Off) @ T=1, thereby allowing Photodiode 1 to charge its well capacitance.

At this time Photodiode 2 is held at Reset level by having Transfer Gate 2 and the Reset Gate open (On). After 1 Row Period [Trow], @T=2 ,Transfer Gate 2 closes
(Off). This action causes Photodiode 2 to start charging.
When the integration (charging) of Photdiode 1 has

SEMICONDUCTOR TECHNICAL DATA
neared completion, @ T=3, the Reset Gate closes (Off).
The charge off the well capacitance of Photodiode 1 is
then transfered to the Shared Floating Diffusion Gate
@ T=4 when Transfer Gate 1 opens (On). Also @T=4
the Shared Diffusion gate and the Row Select gate
opens (On). This action causes charge from the floating
diffusion to be read out as a Voltage value for that pixel
on Row 1. @T=5 the Row Select gate and the Floating
diffusion close (Off) while the Reset gate opens (On).
This is occurs in preparation of readout of Row 2.
When the integration (charging) of Photodiode 2 has
neared completion, the Reset Gate closes (Off) again.
The charge off the Well Capacitance of Photodiode 2 is
then transfered to the Shared Floating Diffusion Gate
@ T=6 when Transfer Gate 2 opens (On) and then the
same readout procedure as before occurs.

Figure 3. MCM20027 Nominal spectral response
In addition to the imaging pixels, there are additional
pixels called dark and dummy pixels at the periphery of
the imaging section (see Figure 2). The dark pixels are
covered by a light blocking shield rendering the pixels
underneath insensitive to photons. These pixels provide
the sensor means to measure the dark level offset
which is used downstream in the signal processing
chain to perform auto black level calibration. The dummy pixels are provided at the array’s periphery to eliminate inexact measurements due to light piping into the
dark pixels adjacent to active pixels. The output of these
pixels should be discarded.
Electronic shuttering, also known as electronic exposure timing in photographic terms, is a standard feature.
The pixel integration time can be widely varied from a
small fraction of a given frame readout time to the entire
frame time.
2.2 Color Separation and Fill Factor Enhancement
The MCM20027 family is offered with the option of
monolithic polymer color filter arrays (CFAs). The combination of an extremely planarized process and propri-
Revision 8.0 - 28 November 2001 :

atary color filter technology result in CFAs with superior
spectral and transmission properties. The standard option is a primary (RGB) “Bayer” pattern (see Figure 4),
however, facility to produce customized CFAs including
complementary (CMYG) mosaics also exists.
Applications requiring higher sensitivity can benefit from
the optional micro-lens arrays shown in Figure 5. The
lenslet arrays can improve the fill factor (aperture ratio)
of the sensor by 1.5-2x depending on the F number of
the main lens used in the camera system. Microlenses
yield greatest benefits when the main lens has a high F
number. As a caution, telecentric optical design is a requirement due to the limited optical acceptance angle of
the lenslit. The optical acceptance angle is approximately 15 degrees (see figure 5a). Due to the lenslits
being placed in the same area/position over all the photodiodes on the sensor, hence, care should be taken
when taking into consideration the telecentric design for
especially the outermost pixels.The fill factor of the pixels without microlenses is 32%. With Microlens the fill
factor improves to approximately 45% to 50%.

3.1 Continuous Frame Rolling Shutter capture
(CFRS) [Default]
The default mode of image capture is the “Continuous
Frame Rolling Shutter” capture mode (CFRS). This
mode will yield frame rates up to 10fps at 13.5 MHz
MCLK. In this mode the image integration and row readout take place in parallel. While a row of pixels is being
read out, another row(s) are being integrated. Readout
of each row follows the Integration of that row. Therefore the Integration of the rows are staggered out due to
the Readout of sequential rows occurring one after the
other (see “Integration Time in CFRS mode:” on
page 13).
In CFRS, after one frame has completed integrating,
the first row of the second frame automatically begins
integrating. The readout of the rows also follow the
same routine. The waveforms depicting the CFRS output data stream refer to Figure 6, on page 11 and Figure
7, on page 12.
3.1.1 CFRS Video Encoded Data stream
The Pixel Data Stream Signal Control Register, (Table
53), on page 62 allows the user to select how the output
pixel data stream in Continuous Frame Rolling Shutter
mode is encoded/formatted. In default mode, internally
generated signals SOF, VCLK, HCLK etc. drive the integration and readout of the pixel data frames but only
the valid pixel data is readout of the sensor. When a “1”
is written to bit 5 of the Pixel Data Stream Signal Control
Register, (Table 53), on page 62, it causes the output
pixel data to be encoded with SOF, VCLK and End Of
Frame signals. It accomplishes this by attaching the pixel data with certain predefined signal data. The Video
Encoded Signal Definitions, (Table 2), on page 10 defines the data that represents the SOF, VCLK and End
of Frame signals.

3.2 Single Frame Rolling Shutter capture mode
(SFRS)
This mode of capture refers to non-interlaced or sequential row by row scanning of the entire sensor in a
single pass for the purpose of capturing a single frame.
The start of Integration in this mode is triggered by the
SYNC signal. Similar to the CFRS capture mode, Readout of each row follows the Integration of that row.
Therefore the Integration of the rows are staggered out
as well due to the Readout of the sequential rows occurring one after the other (see “Integration Time in SFRS
mode” on page 14). This process continues until all
Rows have been integrated and readout. Once readout
of the entire frame is complete, the sensor awaits a new
SYNC signal before it starts integration and readout of
another frame.
The waveforms depicting the SFRS output data stream
refer to Figure 8, on page 12

4.0 Active Window of Interest Control
5.0 Active Window Sub-sampling Control
The pixel data to be read out of the device is defined as
a ‘Window of Interest’ (WOI). The window of interest
can be defined anywhere on the pixel array at any size.
The user provides the upper-left pixel location and the
size in both row and column depth to define the WOI.
The WOI is defined using the WOI Pointer, WOI Depth,
and WOI Width registers, (Table 32 on page 51 through
Table 39 on page 53). Please refer to Figure 9 for a pictorial representation of the WOI within the active pixel
array.
The user can further control the size of the Active Window that is read out by sub sampling the already defined Active Window Of Interest (See “Active Window of
Interest Control” on page 12). Subsampling enables the
pixel data to be readout in 1 pixel or 2 pixel increments
depending if you are subsampling in either monochrome (1 pixel) or bayer pixel (2 pixel) space in four different sampling rates in each direction: full, 1/2, 1/4, or
1/8. The user controls the subsampling via the Subsample Control Register, (Table 30), on page 49.
An example of Bayer space sub-sampling is shown in
Figure 10.

6.0 Frame Rate and Integration Time Control
In addition to the minimum time required to readout the
selected resolution and WOI, the user has the ability to
control the frame rates while operating in either Continuous Frame Rolling Shutter capture mode (CFRS) and
Single Frame Rolling Shutter (SFRS).
The frame rate can be defined as the time required to
readout an entire frame of data plus the required boundary timing. This is done by varying the size of a number
of parameters identified in later sections, the main one
being the Virtual Frame surrounding the WOI.
Please refer to Figure 11 for a pictorial description of the
Virtual Frame and its relationship to the WOI
6.2 Integration Time in CFRS mode:
In Continuous Frame Rolling Shutter capture mode, the
Integration time is defined as:
Integration Time=Tint = (cintd + 1) * Trow
where cintd is the number of virtual row times desired
for integration time. Therefore, the integration time in
CFRS mode can be adjusted in steps of virtual frame
row times.The user controls cintd via the Integration
Time MSB Register, (Table 40), on page 54 and Integration Time LSB Register, (Table 41), on page 55.
Row Time (Trow) is the length of time required to read
one row of the virtual frame and can be defined as:
Trow = (vcwd + shsd + shrd + 19) * MCLKperiod
.

The user controls the shsd and shrd values via the Internal Timing Control Register 1 (shs time definition);

6.1 CFRS Frame Time/Rate:
In Continuous Frame Rolling Shutter capture mode, the
Frame time is completely defined by the size of the Virtual Frame and can be expressed as:
NOTE!! In Continuous Frame Rolling Shutter
(CFRS) capture mode, the Integration time upper
limit is bounded by the Frame time (see “CFRS
Frame Time/Rate:” on page 13).
i.e.. Tint < Tframe
Frame Time = Tframe = (vrdd + 1) * Trow
where vrdd defines the number of rows in the virtual
frame. The user controls vrdd via the Virtual Frame Row
Depth registers (Table 42 on page 55 and Table 43 on
page 55).
Frame Rate = (Frame time)-1

6.3 SFRS Frame Time/Rate:
In Single Frame Rolling Shutter capture mode the Frame
time is defined as:
Frame time = Tframe= Integration time+Readout time
Readout time is the amount of time to readout the data after integration of the row has been completed. It is defined
as follows:
NOTE!! vcwd and cintd are typically varied frame to
frame
Calculations:
Row Time =Trow = (vcwd + shsd + shrd + 19)
Readout time = (vrdd + 1) * Trow
= (1290 + 10 + 10 + 19) / 13.5e6
where vrdd defines the number of rows in the virtual
frame. The user controls vrdd via the CFRS Virtual Frame
Row Depth registers (Table 42 on page 55 and Table 43
on page 55).
= 98.44µs
Integration Time = (cintd + 1) * Trow
=(350+1)*98.44µs
Trow = (vcwd + shsd + shrd + 19) * MCLKperiod
For Integration time see “Integration Time in SFRS
mode” on page 14
=34.5ms
Readout time = (vrdd + 1) * Trow
= Frame time in CFRS mode
6.3.1 Integration Time in SFRS mode
The Integration time in Single Frame Rolling Shutter capture mode is the same as in Rolling Shutter Capture
Mode. For further information, see “Integration Time in
CFRS mode:” on page 13. The only difference is that
in this mode the Integration time is NOT bounded by
the Frame time
Frame Time in CFRS mode = (vrdd + 1) * Trow
Tframe =(1034 + 1)* 98.44
= 101.34 ms
Frame Time in SFRS mode =
Tframe = Integration time+Readout time
= 34.5ms + 101.34ms
= 135.84ms
6.4 Example of Frame time/rate and Integration Time
in CFRS and SFRS modes
The following illustrates how to determine the Frame time/
rate and Integration time in both capture modes:

7.0 Analog Signal Processing Chain Overview
The MCM20027’s analog signal processing (ASP)
chain incorporates Correlated Double Sampling (CDS),
Frame Rate Clamp (FRC), two Digitally Programmable
Gain Amplifiers (DPGA), Offset Correction (DOVA), and
a 10-bit Analog to Digital Converter (ADC).

(dark) pixels to aid in establishing this reference.

7.1 Correlated Double Sampling (CDS)
The uncertainty associated with the reset action of a capacitive node results in a reset noise which is equal to
kTC; C being the capacitance of the node, T the temperature and k the Boltzmann constant. A common way of
eliminating this noise source in all image sensors is to
use Correlated Double Sampling. The output signal is
sampled twice, once for its reset (reference) level and
once for the actual video signal. These values are sampled and held while a difference amplifier subtracts the
reference level from the signal output. Double sampling
of the signal eliminates correlated noise sources (see
.“Conceptual block diagram of CDS implementation.”

Figure 13. FRC Conceptual Block Diagram
On the MCM20027, dark pixel input signals should be
sampled for a minimum of 137µs to allow the two 0.1µF
capacitors at the CLRCA and CLRCB pins sufficient
time to charge for 10-bit accuracy. This guarantees that
the FRC’s “droop” will be maintained at <750 µV, thus
assuring the specified ADC 10-bit accuracy at +0.5
LSB. Therefore, at maximum operational frequency
(13.5 MHz), the imager would require a number of
frames to establish the dark pixel reference for subsequent active pixel processing. The dark pixel sample
period is automatically controlled internally and it is set
to skip the first 3 dark rows and then sample the next 2
dark rows. When “dark clamping” is active, each dark
pixel is processed and held to establish pixel reference
level at the CLRCA and CLRCB pins. During this period,
the FRC’s differential outputs (V+ and V- on the Diff
Amp, Figure 13) are clamped to Vcm. Together, these
actions help to eliminate the dark level offset, simultaneously establishing the desired zero code at the ADC
output.
Care should be exercised in choosing the capacitors for
the CLRCA, B pins to reflect different frame rates.
The user can disable this function via the FRC Definition
Register; Table 54 and the Power Configuration Register, (Table 19), on page 41 (Check this - should be referring o FRC clamp ON/OFF) which will allow the ASP
chain to drift in offset Per-Column Digital Offset Voltage
Adjust (DOVA), and controls the number of rows to
clamp on.

7.3 Programmable Per-Column Offset
A programmable per-column offset adjustment is available on the MCM20027. In order to reduce the risk and
have the ability to cover any mode of repetitive column
Fixed Pattern Noise (FPN), there exists 64 registers that
can be programmed with a DC offset that is added to all
columns. (Mod64 Column Offset registers; Table 27).
Each register is 6 bits, (5 bits plus 1 sign bit), providing+/
- 32 register values. The DC register values is added to
each of the 64 columns registers to provide the total offset value. This set of 64 values is then repeatedly applied to each bank of 64 in the sensor via the column
DOVA stage of the ASP chain.
The Column DOVA DC Register; Table 26, is used to
set the initial offset of the pixel output in a range that will
facilitate per-column offset data generation for varying
operational conditions. In most operational scenarios,
this register can be left in its default state of 00h. This is
a pre-image processing gain in comparison to the Global DOVA Register (see section )which is a post image
processing chain gain (pre A2D gain)
7.4 Digitally Programmable Gain Amplifiers (DPGA)
for White Balance and Exposure Gain
Two DPGAs are available in the analog signal processing chain. These are used to perform white balance and
exposure gain functions.
7.4.1 White Balance Control PGA
The sensor produces three primary color outputs, Red,
Green and Blue. These are monochrome signals that
represent luminance values in each of the primary colors. When added in equal amounts they mix to make
neutral color. White balancing is a technique where the
gain coefficients of the green(0), red, blue, and green(3)
pixels comprising the Bayer pattern (see Figure 14.) are
set so as to equalize their outputs for neutral color
scenes. Since the sensitivity of the two green pixels in
the Bayer pattern may not be equal, an individual color
gain register is provided for each component of the Bayer pattern.
Once all color gain registers are loaded with the desired
gain coefficients ,according to which gain mode (see
“Gain Modes” on page 17) has been set, white balance
is then achieved in real time and in analog space. These
gain coefficient values are then selected and applied to
the pixel output via a high speed path, the delay of
which is much shorter than the pixel clock rate. Real
time updates can be performed to any of the gain registers. However, latency associated with the I2C interface
should be taken into consideration before changes occur. In most applications, users will be able to assign
predefined settings such as daylight, fluorescent, tungMOTOROLA
sten, and halogen to cover a wide gamut of illumination
conditions.
Both DPGA designs use switched capacitors to minimize accumulated offset and improve measurement accuracy and dynamic range. The white balance gain
registers are 6-bits and can be programmed to allow
gain of 0.696x to 2.74x in varying steps.
The user programs the individual gain coefficients into
the MCM20027 via the Color Gain Registers (Table 8
through Table 11). For the default Bayer configuration
of the color filter array; Figure 4, the Color Gain Register
addresses are as follows: Reg (00h): green pixel of a
green-red row; Reg (01h): red pixel; Reg (02h): blue pixel; and Reg (03h): green pixel of a blue-green row.
The MCM20027 is presently available with only a Bayer
CFA, however, it is designed to support other novel color configurations. This is accomplished via the Color
Tile Configuration Register, (Table 12), on page 37 and
the Color Tile Row Definition registers (Table 13
through Table 16).

The global gain DPGA provides a 0.67x to 7.5x (approx)
programmable gain adjustment for dynamic range. The
gain of the amplifier is linearly programmable using a six
bit gain coefficients on 2 6-bit PGA gain registers in
varying steps depending on which exposure gain mode
it is set at i.e. RAW or LIN or LIN2
(PGA Gain Mode,
(Table 25), on page 45). The user programs the global
gain via the Exposure PGA Global Gain Register A, (Table 23), on page 44.

7.5 Global Digital Offset Voltage Adjust (DOVA)
A programmable global offset adjustment is available
on the MCM20027. A user defined offset value is loaded
via a 6-bit signed magnitude programming code via the
Global DOVA Register, (Table 28), on page 47.
7.6 Analog to Digital Converter (ADC)
The ADC is a fully differential, low power circuit. A pipelined, Redundant Signed Digit (RSD) algorithmic technique is used to yield an ADC with superior
characteristics for imaging applications.
Offset correction allows fine-tuning of the signal to remove any additional residual error which may have accumulated in the analog signal path. This function is
performed directly before analog to digital conversion
and introduces a fixed gain of 2.0X. This feature is useful in applications that need to insert a desired offset to
adjust for a known system noise floor relative to AVSS
and offsets of amplifiers in the analog chain.
Integral Noise Linearity (INL) and Differential Noise Linearity (DNL) performance is specified at +1.0 and +0.5,
respectively, with no missing codes. The input voltage
resolution is 2.44 mV with a full-scale 2.5 V pp input (2.5
Vpp/210). The input dynamic range of the ADC is programmed via a Programmable Voltage Reference Generator. The positive reference voltage (VREFP) and
negative reference voltages (VREFM) can be programmed from 2.5V to 1.25V and 0V to 1.25V respectively in steps of 5mV via the Reference Voltage
Registers (Table 17 and Table 18). This feature is used
independently or in conjunction with the DPGAs to maximize the system dynamic range based on incident illumination. The default input range for the ADC is 1.9V for
VREFP and 0.6V for VREFM hence allowing a 10 bit
digitization of a 1.3V peak to peak signal.

8.0 Sensor External Controls (Additional
Operational Conditions)
The MCM20027 includes initialization, standby modes,
and external reference voltage outputs to afford the
user additional applications flexibility.
8.1 Initialization
The INIT input pin (#42) controls reinitialization of the
MCM20027. This serves to assure controlled chip and
system startup. Control is asserted via a logic high input. (i.e.. Asserting a Logic high “1” initializes all the
Registers, while asserting a Logic low “0” returns the
sensor to normal operation). This state must be held a
minimum of 1 ms and a 1 ms “wait period” should be allowed before chip processing to ensure that the start-up
routines within the MCM20027 have run to completion,
and to guarantee that all holding and bypass capacitors,
etc. have achieved their required steady state values.
Tasks which are accomplished during startup include:
reset of the utility programming registers and initialization to their default values (please refer to previous section for settings), reset of all internal counters and
latches, and setup of the analog signal processing
chain.
8.3 Tristate Mode
The sensors HCLK, SOF, VCLK, SYNC and STROBE
output signals as well as the pixel output data can be
tristated via the Tristate Control Register, (Table 21), on
page 42.
8.4 References CVREFP, CVREFM
The MCM20027 contains all internally generated references and biases on-chip for system simplification. An
internally generated differential bandgap regulator derives all the ADC and other analog signal processing required references. The user should connect 0.1µF
capacitors to the CVREFP and CVREFM pins (#15 and
#14 respectively) to accurately hold the biases.
8.5 Common Mode References: VAG, VAGREF and
VAGRETURN
The MCM20027 holds the Common Mode Reference
Voltages on the chip to a stable value. In order to
achieve this stable value, the VAG (pin #16),
VAGREF(pin #18 ) and VAGRETURN (pin #17) have to
be connected to two 0.1µF capacitors in the manner described in the diagram below:
Another method of saving power consumption is to applying an active high signal to the INIT pin (#42) but
Note - Doing this will also cause initialization of the chip
.
8.2 Standby Mode
The standby mode option is implemented to allow the
user to reduce system power consumption during periods which do not require operation of the MCM20027.
This feature allows the user to extend battery life in low
power applications.
By utilizing this mode, the user may reduce dynamic
power consumption from 250mW RMS nominal
@13.5MHz to <100 uW in the standby mode.

(pin #16)

8.6 Internal Bias Current Control
The ASP chain has internally generated bias currents
that result in an operating power consumption of nearly

consumption of the device. This feature is enabled by
writing a 1b to bit res of the Power Configuration Register. Additional power savings can be achieved at lower
clock rates. Note - The External Bias resistor Input pin
(EXTRESP - pin #20) should be connected to the

9.5 Strobe Signal
The Strobe signal is a output pin on the MCM20027
sensor that can be used to activate ‘Flash/Strobe illumination modules”. It can be activated by writing a “1” to
bit 3 of “Sync and Strobe Control register” on page 50
while in SFRS mode. When activated, the Strobe signal
goes high (Active) when all Rows are Integrating simultaneously, and ends one Row period (Trow) before the
last Row begins to Integrate. (see 3“Frame Rate and Integration Time Control” on page 13). The start of the
strobe signal can also be set by the user. In default
mode, when the strobe is activated, the signal fires 2
Row Periods (Trow) before the first Row begins to Readout and last for a length of 1 Trow .A sample timing diagram for the Strobe signal can be seen in Figure 16, on

To ensure that Strobe signal fires, the integration time
must be large enough to ensure that all rows are integrating simulanteously for at least 2 Row periods (Trow)
Variables:
(see “Frame Rate and Integration Time Control” on
page 13)
Tintmin=(cintmin+1)*Trow
where Trow = (vcwd + shsd + shrd + 19)
To accomplish this - ensure that the Integration time
(cintd) greater than 2 Row periods (Trow) larger than
the active Window of Interest Row depth.
Integration Time (cintmin) is the main variable used to control
the time of the Strobe signals.
Calculations:
Row Time =Trow = (vcwd + shsd + shrd + 19)
= (1290 + 10 + 10 + 19) / 13.5e6
Min. Integration time =Tintmin=(cintmin+1)*Trow
cintmin=wrdd+x
where x > 2
where wrdd is the Window Of Interest Row depth.
= 98.44µs
Tintmin=(cintmin+1)*Trow
cintmin=wrdd+x
where x > 2
Tstrobe1= Trow
Tstrobe2= Tintmin- (wrdd+1)*Trow
Let cintmin= wrdd+x
where x > 2
= 1023 + 4 = 1029
where x=4
Therefore,
Tintmin= 101.39
Tstrobe1= 98.44µs
EXAMPLE: Below you will find an example of how to
ensure that the strobe signal will fire and to determine
the length of the STROBE signal in default mode:
(Refer to Figure 16, on page 24 for timing analysis)
Tstrobe2= Tintmin- (wrdd+2)*Trow
= 3 * Trow

10.0 I2C Serial Interface
The I2C is an industry standard which is also compatible
with the Motorola bus (called M-Bus) that is available on
many microprocessor products. The I2C contains a serial two-wire half-duplex interface that features bidirectional operation, master or slave modes, and multimaster environment support. The clock frequency on
the system is governed by the slowest device on the
board. The SDATA and SCLK are the bidirectional data
and clock pins, respectively. These pins are open drain
and will require a pull-up resistor to VDD of 1.5 kΩ to 10
kΩ (see page 66).
The I2C is used to write the required user system data
into the Program Control Registers in the MCM20027.
The I2C bus can also read the data in the Program Control Register for verification or test considerations. The
MCM20027 is a slave only device that supports a maximum clock rate (SCLK) of 100 kHz while reading or
writing only one register address per I2C start/stop cycle. The following sections will be limited to the methods
for writing and reading data into the MCM20027 register.
For a complete reference to I 2C, see “The I 2C Bus from
Theory to Practice” by Dominique Paret and CarllFenger, published by John Wiley & Sons, ISBN
0471962686.
10.1 MCM20027 I2C Bus Protocol
The MCM20027 uses the I2C bus to write or read one
register byte per start/stop I2C cycle as shown in Figure
17 and Figure 18. These figures will be used to describe
the various parts of the I2C protocol communications as
it applies to the MCM20027.
MCM20027 I2C bus communication is basically composed of following parts: START signal, MCM20027
slave address (0110011b) transmission followed by a R/
W bit, an acknowledgment signal from the slave, 8 bit
data transfer followed by another acknowledgment signal, STOP signal, Repeated START signal, and clock
synchronization.
10.2 START Signal
When the bus is free, i.e. no master device is engaging
the bus (both SCLK and SDATA lines are at logical “1”),
a master may initiate communication by sending a
START signal. As shown in Figure 17, a START signal
is defined as a high-to-low transition of SDATA while
SCLK is high. This signal denotes the beginning of a
new data transfer and wakes up all the slaves on the
bus.
10.3 Slave Address Transmission
MOTOROLA
The first byte of a data transfer, immediately after the
START signal, is the slave address transmitted by the
master. This is a 7-bit calling address followed by a R/
W bit. The seven-bit address for the MCM20027, starting with the MSB (AD7) is 0110011b. The transmitted
calling address on the SDATA line may only be
changed while SCLK is low as shown in Figure 17. The
data on the SDATA line is valid on the High to Low signal transition on the SCLK line. The R/W bit following
the 7-bit tells the slave the desired direction of data
transfer:
•
•
1 = Read transfer, the slave transitions to a slave
transmitter and sends the data to the master
0 = Write transfer, the master transmits data to the
slave
10.4 Acknowledgment
Only the slave with a calling address that matches the
one transmitted by the master will respond by sending
back an acknowledge bit. This is done by pulling the
SDATA line low at the 9th clock (see Figure 17). If a
transmitted slave address is acknowledged, successful
slave addressing is said to have been achieved. No two
slaves in the system may have the same address. The
MCM20027 is configured to be a slave only.
10.5 Data Transfer
Once successful slave addressing is achieved, data
transfer can proceed between the master and the selected slave in a direction specified by the R/W bit sent
by the calling master. Note that for the first byte after a
start signal (in Figure 17 and Figure 18), the R/W bit is
always a “0” designating a write transfer. This is required since the next data transfer will contain the register address to be read or written.
All transfers that come after a calling address cycle are
referred to as data transfers, even if they carry sub-address information for the slave device.
Each data byte is 8 bits long. Data may be changed only
while SCLK is low and must be held stable while SCLK
is high as shown in Figure 17. There is one clock pulse
on SCLK for each data bit, the MSB being transferred
first.
Each data byte has to be followed by an acknowledge
bit, which is signalled from the receiving device by pulling the SDATA low at the ninth clock. So one complete
data byte transfer needs nine clock pulses. If the slave
receiver does not acknowledge the master, the SDATA
line must be left high by the slave. The master can then
generate a stop signal to abort the data transfer or a
start signal (repeated start) to commence a new calling.

MOTOROLA
ImageMOS
SEMICONDUCTOR TECHNICAL DATA
10.7 Repeated START Signal
A Repeated START signal is a START signal generated
without first generating a STOP signal to terminate the
communication. This is used by the master to communicate with another slave or with the same slave in a different mode (transmit/receive mode) without releasing
the bus.
If the master receiver does not acknowledge the slave
transmitter after a byte transmission, it means 'end of
data' to the slave, so the slave releases the SDATA line
for the master to generate STOP or START signal.
10.6 Stop Signal
The master can terminate the communication by generating a STOP signal to free the bus. However, the master may generate a START signal followed by a calling
command without generating a STOP signal first. This
is called a Repeated START. A STOP signal is defined
as a low-to-high transition of SDATA while SCLK is at
logical “1” (see Figure 17).
As shown in Figure 18, a Repeated START signal is being used during the read cycle and to redirect the data
transfer from a write cycle (master transmits the register
address to the slave) to a read cycle (slave transmits
the data from the designated register to the slave).
The master can generate a STOP even if the slave has
generated an acknowledge bit at which point the slave
must release the bus.

10.8 I2C Bus Clocking and Synchronization
Open drain outputs are used on the SCLK outputs of all
master and slave devices so that the clock can be synchronized and stretched using wire-AND logic. This
means that the slowest device will keep the bus from
going faster than it is capable of receiving or transmitting data.
After the master has driven SCLK from High to Low, all
the slaves drive SCLK Low for the required period that
is needed by each slave device and then releases the
SCLK bus. If the slave SCLK Low period is greater than
the master SCLK Low period, the resulting SCLK bus
Revision 8.0 - 28 November 2001 :
MCM20027
signal Low period is stretched. Therefore, synchronized
clocking occurs since the SCLK is held low by the device with the longest Low period. Also, this method can
be used by the slaves to slow down the bit rate of a
transfer. The master controls the length of time that the
SCLK line is in the High state. The data on the SDATline
is valid when the master switches the SCLK line from a
High to a Low.
Slave devices may hold the SCLK low after completion
of one byte transfer (9 bits). In such case, it halts the bus
clock and forces the master clock into wait states until
the slave releases the SCLK line.

13.0 Detailed Register Block Assignments
This section describes in further detail the functional operation of the various MCM20027 programmable registers. The registers are subdivided into various blocks for
ease of addressability and use (see Table 6).
In each table where a suffix code is used; h = hex, b =
binary, and d = decimal.
13.1 Analog Register Interface Block
The address range for this block is 00h to BFh.
13.1.1 Analog Color Configuration
Address
00h
The four Color Gain Registers, Color Tile Configuration
Register, and four Color Tile Row definitions define how
white balance is achieved on the device. Six-bit gain
codes can be selected for four separate colors: Table 8,
Table 9, Table 10, and Table 11. Gain for each individual color register is programmable given the gain function defined in the table. The gain function used
depends on what Gain mode (White balance gain
mode) the sensor is set (PGA Gain Mode; Table
25).The user programs these registers to account for
changing light conditions to assure a white balanced
output. The default value in each register is provides for
a unity gain. In addition, the default CFA pattern color is
listed in the title of each register.

13.1.2 Reference Voltage Adjust Registers
The analog register block allows programming the input
voltage range of the analog to digital converter to match
the saturation voltage of the pixel array. The voltage reference generator can be programmed via two registers;
nrv (0 to 1.25V) Table 17, prv (2.5V to 1.25V) Table 18,
in 5mV steps. A 00h value in the prv register represents
a reference output voltage of 2.5V. A 00h value in the
nrv register represents output voltage of 0V. The default settings for the two registers produce a 1.9V reference on prv and 0.6V on nrv outputs. When adjusting

13.1.3 Analog Control Registers
The Analog Register Block also contains a Power Configuration Register; Table 19, and a Reset Control Register; Table 20.
The Power Configuration Register controls the internal
analog functionality that directly effect power consumption of the device. An external precision resistor pin is
available on the MCM20027 that may be used to more
accurately regulate the internal current sources. This
serves to minimize variations in power consumption that
are caused by variations in internal resistor values as
well as offer a method to reduce the power consumption
of the device. The default for this control uses the internally provided resistor which is nominally 12.5kΩ. This
feature is enabled by setting the res bit of the Power
Configuration Register and placing a resistor between
the pin; EXTRES, and ground. Figure 11 depicts the
power savings that can be achieved with an external re-
MOTOROLA
sistor at a specific clock rate. Power is further reduced
at lower clock rates.
The pbg bit of the Power Configuration Register; Table
19, is used to enable/disable the “Programmable Bias
Generator”. When this bit is enabled, the user can vary
the power consumption of the White Balance PGA
(PGAWB), Exposure gain PGA A (PGAEXPa), Exposure gain PGA B (PGEXPb), Frame Rate Clamp (FRC),
Column Offset DOVA (COL_DOVA), Global offset
DOVA (DOVE) and/or the Analog to Digital converter
(A2D) between half an full current (power) consumption.
in the Programable Bias Generator Control register; Table 22.
When this bit is disabled, it will use the power configured by the internal or external resistor (bit 3).

Additional control of the MCM20027 can be had using
the Reset Control Register; Reset Control Register; Table 20.
Setting the sir bit of this register will reset all the non
programmable Sensor interface registers to a known reset state.
Setting the sit bit allows the user to completely reset the
MCM20027 to the default state via the serial control Interface. For both reset bits, ssr and sit, the user must
return those bits to 0 to enable continued operation
Setting the par bit of this register will reset all the Sensors non programmable Post ADC registers to a known
reset state.
Setting the asp bit of this register will reset all the sensors registers in the ASP processing chain to a known
reset state.
Setting the ssr bit of this register will reset all the nonuser programmable registers to a known reset state.
This is useful in situations when control of the
MCM20027 has been lost due to system interrupts and
the device needs only to be restarted using the earlier
user programmed values.

13.4.1 Sensor Output Control
The sensor output control registers define how the window of interest is captured and what data is output from
the MCM20027.
The Capture Mode Control Register; Table 29, defines
how the data is captured and how the data is to be provided at the output..
Revision 8.0 - 28 November 2001 :
MCM20027
Setting the cms bit will stop the current output data
stream at the end of the current frame. Unsetting this bit
(cms = 0b) will resume the output of the frame stream.
The MCM20027 is in CFRS in default. The user may
use this bit to capture data in the CFRS mode and/or
SFRS while using the SYNC pin. The SYNC pin triggers
a single frame of data to be output from the device in the

a timing diagram of this mode.
The sp bit is used to define whether SOF is active high
or low. SOF is active high in default.
The ve bit is used to determine whether VCLK is output
at the beginning of all the rows including virtual frame
rows or for the WOI rows only. The default is WOI only.
The he bit is used to determine whether HCLK is output
continuously or for the WOI pixels only. The default is
WOI only.
The hp bit is used to define whether HCLK is active high
or low. HCLK is active high in default.
The hm bit is used to define HCLK is toggled or whetherwhether it is continuously output.

Table 29. Capture Mode Control Register
The Sub-sample Control Register; Table 30, is used to
define what pixels of the WOI are read and the method
they are read.
Using the cm bit, the user can sample the pixel array in
either monochrome or Bayer pattern color space. This
means that when sampling the rows or columns, the set
of pixels read will be gathered as individual pixels
MOTOROLA
(monochrome) or in color tiles of pixels (Bayer pattern).
The pixels will be read in monochrome mode in default.
The row sub sampling rate is defined by rf[1:0] while the
column sub sampling rate is defined by cf[1:0]. The pixel array is fully sampled in default.

Table 30. Sub-sample Control Register
The Sync and Strobe Control register; Table 31 is used
to control the sync and strobe signals.
The sr bit when enabled causes the SYNC signal to go
high for exactly one clock cycle, and then returns to a
low. It remains low until the sr bit is enabled again.
The sa bit when enabled causes the SYNC signal high
until this bit is disabled. This causes continuous frame
processing.
The se bit when enabled will allow for an external signal
to drive the SYNC signal via the SYNC pin on the chip.
the bit is set to 0 (Setting 0), causes the STROBE signal
to on for a duration of 1 Row time (TROW) from the time
all Rows are integrating
The sso bit ,when enabled, forces the STROBE signal
and thereby the STROBE Pin high until it is reset back
to 0. When this bit is set high - the sae and saw bit settings become negligible.
NOTE! Please refer to Figure 15, on page 14 for Strobe
Signal timing diagram.
The sae bit when enabled will enable the STROBE signal to be generated automatically by the sensor.This will
only work in SFRS (Single Frame Rolling Shutter). The
STROBE signal is goes high when all the Rows in the
Frame are integrating together.
The saw bit allows the user to select how long the
STROBE signal is going to be on. If the bit is set to 1
(Setting 1), causes the STROBE Signal to be on from
the time all the Rows are integrating to 1 Row time
(TROW) before Read-Out of the first Row commences. If

13.4.2 Programmable “Window of Interest”
The WOI is defined by a set of registers that indicate the
upper-left starting point for the window and another set
of registers that define the size of the window. Please
refer to Figure 9, on page 12 for a pictorial representation of the WOI within the active pixel array.
The WOI Row Pointer; wrp[10:0] (Table 32 and Table
33), and the WOI Column Pointer; wcp[10:0] (Table 36
and Table 37), mark the upper-left starting point for the
WOI.
The WOI Row Depth; wrd[10:0] (Table 32 and Table
33), and the WOI Column Depth; wcd[10:0] (Table 36
and Table 37), indicate the size of the WOI.
The WOI Row Depth; wrd[10:0], has a range of 0d to
1047d whereas the WOI Column Depth; wcd[10:0], has
a range of 0d to 1295d.
The user should be careful to create a WOI that contains active pixels only. There is no logic in the sensor
The WOI Row Pointer; wrp[10:0], has a range of 0d to
1047d whereas the WOI Column Pointer; wcp[10:0] has
a usable range of 0d to 1295d. The pointer can be

13.4.3 Integration Time Control
The Integration Time registers; Table 41, Table 40, and
Table 41, control the integration time for the pixel array.
Integration time for CFRS and SFRS; cint[13:0], is
measured in Virtual Row times. Please refer to Figure
11 for a pictorial description of the Virtual Frame and its
relationship to the WOI.
NOTE!! The upd bit of the Integration Time MSB Register; Table 40 is used to indicate a change to cint[13:0].
Since multiple I2C writes may be needed to complete
desired frame to frame integration time changes, the
upd bit signals that all desired programming has been
completed, and to apply these changes to the next
frame captured. This prevents undesirable changes in
integration time that may result from I2C writes that
span the “End of Frame” boundary. This upd bit has to
be toggled from its previous state in order for the new
value of cint[13:0] to be accepted/updated by the sensor and take effect. i.e. If its previous state is “0”, when
writing a new cint value, first write cint[7:0] to the Integration Time LSB Register; Table 41, then write both
cint [13:8] and “1” to the upd bit to the Integration Time
MSB Register; Table 40.
data stream. By adding additional rows or columns as
‘blanking’ to the WOI to form the Virtual Frame, the user
can control the amount of blanking in both horizontal
and vertical space.(Table 42, “Virtual Frame Row Depth
MSB Register,” on page 55 Table 43, “Virtual Frame
Row Depth LSB Register,” on page 55Table 44, “Virtual
Frame Column Width MSB Register,” on
page 56Table 45, “Virtual Frame Column Width LSB
Register,” on page 56)
The user should be careful to create a Virtual Frame
that is larger than the WOI. There is no logic in the sensor interface to prevent the user from defining a Virtual
Frame smaller than the WOI. Therefore, pixel data may
be lost.
The Virtual Frame must be at least 1 row and 6 columns
larger than the WOI.
The Virtual Frame completely defines the integration
time in CFRS. Any changes to the WOI or how the WOI
is sampled has no effect on integration time.
A virtual frame is the mechanism by which the user controls the integration time and frame time for the output

The vcb bit allows the user to force all the Blanking data coming out of the A2D to be 0.
The vcg bit allows the user to choose between encoded pixel data output stream or non-encoded pixel data output

The vcc bit allows the user to clip the output active pixel data to lie between 001 and 3FE
The default mode (Normal Mode) has the SOF, HCLK, VCLK etc. signals being utilised to indicate the start of data
and the end of data. (Figure 2, on page 7 and Figure 14, on page 20)
Register Value = 00h
Another mode, Video Mode is a mode where the SOF and Row start/end signals are encoded (contained) in the
Active Pixel data stream. In addition, all data that is not a SOF, Row start/end, or Active pixel data are forced to 0.
i.e. all Blanking data from the A2D are forced to 0. The following sequence identifies the signals below: (see Figure

a) SOF (1st Row of Pixel Data) - “3FF x 4)
b) Start of all other Rows - “3FF x 2” then “000 x 2”

Notes:
- All parameters are characterized for DC conditions after thermal equilibrium has been established.
- Unused inputs must always be tied to an appropriate logic level, e.g., either VSS or VDD.
- This device contains circuitry to protect the inputs against damage due to high static voltages or electric fields; however, it is advised that
normal precautions be taken to avoid application of any voltage higher than the maximum rated voltages to this high impedance circuit.
- For proper operation it is recommended that Vin and Vout be constrained to the range VSS < (Vin or Vout) < VDD.
