Rev. 7 | www.onsemi.com | Page 4 of 25 NOII4SM014KA Architecture and Operation Floor Plan The architecture of the sensor is shown in the Figure 2. The Y-shift registers point at a row of imager arrays. The imager arrays row is selected by the row drivers or reset by them. There are two Y-shift registers, one points to the row that is read out and the other points to the row to be reset. The second pointer may lead the first pointer by a specific number of rows. In that case, the time difference between both pointers is the integration time. Alternatively, both shift registers can point at the same row for reset and readout for a faster reset sequence. When the row is read out, it is also reset. This is to do double sampling for FPN reduction. The pixel array of the IBIS4-14000 consists of 4536 × 3024 active pixels and 24 additional columns and rows which can be addressed (see Figure 3). The column amplifiers read out the pixel information and perform the double sampling operation. They also multiplex the signals on the readout buses, which are buffered by the output amplifiers. The shift registers can be configured for various subsampling modes. The output amplifiers can be individually powered down and some other additional functions are available. These options are configurable using a serial input port. SYL RESET SYR Figure 2.

The pixel is read out and this voltage value is sampled on the capacitor SHS. After readout, the pixel is reset again and this value is sampled by SHR. Both sample and reset values of each pixel are subtracted in the column amplifiers to subtract FPN. Raw images taken by the sensor typically feature a residual (local) FPN of 0.11% RMS of the saturation voltage. The photo response nonuniformity (PRNU), caused by mismatch of photodiode node capacitances, is not corrected on-chip. Measurements indicate that the typical PRNU is less than 1% RMS of the signal level. 3048 x 4560 total pixels Output Stage ------------- SKY -------------- pixel 0,0 4 analog outputs Pixel Specifications The pixel is a classic three transistor active pixel. The photodiode is a high-fill-factor n-well/p-substrate diode. The chip has separate power supplies for the following: ■ General power supply for the analog image core (VDD) ■ Power supply for the reset line drivers (VDDR) Separate power supply for the pixel itself (VDDARRAY). Unity gain buffers are implemented as output amplifiers. These amplifiers can be directly DC-coupled to the analog-digital converter or coupled to an external programmable gain amplifier (PGA). The dark reference offset of the output signal is adjustable between 1.7 V and 3 V. The amplifier output signal is negative going with increasing light levels, with a maximum amplitude of 1.2 V (at 4 V reset voltage, in hard reset mode). The output signal range of the output amplifiers is between 0.5 V and 3 V. Notes on analog video signal and output amplifier specifications: ■ Video polarity: the video signal is negative going with increasing light level. ■ Signal offset: the analog offset of the video signal can be set by an external DC bias (pin 12 DARKREF). The settable range is between 1.7 V and 3 V, with 2.65 V being the nominal expected set point. Hence, the output range (including 1.2 V video signal) is between 3 V and 0.5 V. ■ Power control: the output amplifiers can be switched between an ‘operating’ mode and a ‘standby’ mode via the serial port of the imager (see SPI Register on page 13 for the configuration). ■ Coupling: the IBIS4-14000 can be DC- or AC-coupled to the A/D converter.

Spectral Response Curve Rev. 7 | www.onsemi.com | Page 7 of 25 NOII4SM014KA Output Amplifier Crossbar Switch (multiplexer) Readout and Subsampling Modes A crossbar switch is available that routes the green pixels always to the same output. The switch can be controlled automatically (with a toggle on every CLK_Y rising edge) or manually (through the SPI register). The subsampling modes available on the IBIS4-14000 are summarized in Table 4. A pulse on SYNC_Y resets the crossbar switch. The initial state after reset of the switchboard is read from the SPI control register. When the automatic toggling of the switchboard is enabled, it toggles on every rising edge of the CLK_Y clock. Separate pins are used for the SYNC_Y and CLK_Y signals on the crossbar logic these pins can be connected to the SYNC_YL and CLK_YL pins of the shift register that is used for readout as shown in Figure 6.

Output Amplifier Crossbar Switch CLK_YR SYNC_YR Manual Q Power Power Power Table 4. Subsampling Modes Each mode is selected independently for the X-shift and Y-shift registers. The subsampling mode is configured via the serial input port of the chip. The Y-shift and X-shift registers have some difference in subsampling modes because of constraints in the design of the chip. The baseline full resolution operation mode uses four outputs to read out the entire image. Four consecutive pixels of a row are put in parallel on the four parallel outputs. Subsampling is implemented by a shift register with hard coded subsample modes. Depending on the selected mode, the shift register skips the required number of pixels when shifting the row or column pointer. Power The X-shift register always selects four consecutive columns in parallel. You can subsample in X by activating one of the modes wherein a multiple of four consecutive columns are skipped on a CLK_X pulse. The Y-shift register selects a single row. It consecutively selects two adjacent rows and then skips a set number of rows (the number of rows to skip is set in the subsample mode). Rev. 7 | www.onsemi.com | Page 8 of 25 NOII4SM014KA One output can be used and every second row selected by the Y-shift register can be skipped. This doubles the frame rate. Note that for 2 or 1 channel readout, you can power down the not-used output amplifiers through the SPI shift register. Rows can also be skipped by extra CLK_Y pulses. You do not need to apply additional control pulses to rows that are skipped. This is another way to implement extra subsampling schemes. For example, to support the 24:1 X-shift register mode vertically, set the Y-shift register to the 12:1 mode and given an additional CLK_Y pulse at the start of each row. Table 5 lists the frame rates of the IBIS4-14000 in various subsample modes with only one output. The row blanking time (dead time between readout of successive rows) is set to 17.5 s. Table 5.

Sensor Read Out Timing Diagrams the same position. The falling edge of RESET lags behind the rising PC edge. Row Sequencer The row sequencer controls pulses to be given at the start of each new line. Figure 7 on page 10 shows the timing diagram for this sequence. ■ SHR (Sample & Hold pixel Reset level): This signal controls another track and hold circuit in the column amplifiers. It is used to sample the pixel reset level in the columns (for double sampling). (0 = track ; 1 = hold). ■ SYL (Select YL register): Selects the YL shift register to drive the reset line of the pixel array. ■ SYR (Select YR register): Selects the YR shift register to drive the reset line of the pixel array. For rolling shutter applications, SYL and SYR are complementary. In full frame readout, both registers may be selected together, only if it is guaranteed that both shift registers point to the same row. This can reduce the row blanking time. ■ SYNC_YR and SYNC_YL: Synchronization pulse for the YR and YL shift registers. The SYNC_YR/SYNC_YL signal is clocked in during a rising edge on CLK_YR/CLK_YL and resets the YR/YL shift register to the first row. Both pulses are pulsed only once each frame. The exact pulsing scheme depends on the mode of use (full frame/ rolling shutter). A 200 ns setup time applies. See Table 6 on page 10. ■ SYNC_X: Resets the column pointer to the first row. This has to be done before the end of the first PC pulse in case the previous line has not been read out completely. The signals to be controlled at each row are: ■ CLK_YL and CLK_YR: These are the clocks of the YL and YR shift register. They can be driven by the same signals and at a continuous frequency. At every rising edge, a new row is being selected. ■ SELECT: This signal connects the pixels of the currently sampled line with the columns. It is important that PC and SELECT are never active together. ■ PC: An initialization pulse that needs to be given to precharge the column. ■ SHS (Sample & Hold pixel Signal): This signal controls the track and hold circuits in the column amplifiers. It is used to sample the pixel signal in the columns. (0 = track ; 1 = hold). ■ RESET: This pulse resets the pixels of the row that is currently being selected. In rolling shutter mode, the RESET signal is pulsed a second time to reset the row selected by the YR shift register. For “reset black” dark reference signals, the reset pulse can be pulsed also during the first PC pulse. Normally, the rising edge of RESET and the falling edge of PC occur at Rev. 7 | www.onsemi.com | Page 9 of 25 NOII4SM014KA Figure 7 shows the basic timing diagram of the IBIS4-14000 image sensor and Table 6 on page 10 shows the timing specifications of the clocking scheme.

Rev. 7 | www.onsemi.com | Page 10 of 25 NOII4SM014KA In Figure 7 on page 10 timing diagram, the YR shift register is used for the electronic shutter. The CLK_YR is driven identically as CLK_YL. The SYNC_YR pulse leads the SYNC_YL pulse by a given number of rows. Relative to the row timing, both SYNC pulses are given at the same time position. ■ Preset the X shift register: Apply a low level to SYNC_X during a rising edge on CLK_X at the start of a new row ■ Readout of the image row: Pulse CLK_X ■ Analog-digital conversion: Clock the ADC SYNC_YR and SYNC_YL are only pulsed once each frame, SYNC_YL is pulsed when the first row is read out and SYNC_YR is pulsed for the electronic shutter at the appropriate moment. The SYNC pulses perform a synchronous reset of the shift registers to the first row/column on a rising edge on CLK. This is identical for all shift registers (YR, YL and X). This timing assumes that the registers that control the subsampling modes have been loaded in advance (through the SPI interface), before the pulse on SYNC_YL or SYNC_YR. Note The SYNC_X signal has a setup time Ts of 150 ns. For the YR and YS shift registers, the setup time is 200 ns. CLK_X must be stable at least during this setup time. The second reset pulse and the pulses on SYL and SYR (all pulses drawn in red) are only applied when the rolling electronic shutter is used. For full frame integration, these pulses are skipped. If a partial row readout is performed, 2 CLK_X pulses (with SYNC_X = LOW) are required to fully deselect the column where the X pointer is stopped. A single CLK_X leaves the column partially selected which then has a different response when read out in the next row. The SYNC_Y pulse is also used to initialize the switchboard (output multiplexer). This is also done by a synchronous reset on the rising edge of CLK_Y. Normally the switchboard is controlled by the shift register used for readout (this is the YL shift register). This means that pin SYNC_Y can be connected to SYNC_YL, and pin CLK_Y can be connected to CLK_YL. The additional RESET BLACK pulse (indicated in dashed lines in Figure 7 on page 10) can be given to make one or more lines black. This is useful to generate a dark reference signal. Timing Pulse Pattern for Readout of a Pixel Figure 8 shows the timing diagram to preset (sync) the X shift register, read out the image row, and analog-digital conversion. There are 3 tasks: When full row readout is performed, the last column is fully deselected by a single CLK_X pulse (with SYNC_X = LOW). The X-register is reset by a single CLK_X pulse (with SYNC_X = LOW). In case of partial row readout, give the SYNC_X pulse before the sample pulses (SHR and SHS) of the process to avoid a different response of the last column of the previous window. For the X shift register the analog signal is delayed by 2 clock periods before it becomes available at the output (due to internal processing of the signal in the columns and output amplifier). Figure 8 gives an example of an ADC clock for an ADC that samples on the rising edge. Figure 8.

The parameters are: ■ Subsampling modes for X and Y-shift registers (3-bit code for six subsampling modes) ■ Power control of the output amplifiers, column amps and pixel array. Each amplifier can be individually powered up/down ■ Output crossbar switch control bits. The crossbar switch is used to route the green pixels to the same output amplifiers at all times. A first bit controls the crossbar. When a second bit is set, the first bit toggles on every CLK_Y edge to automatically route the green pixels of the bayer filter pattern. The code is uploaded serially as a 16-bit word (LSB uploaded first). Table 9 on page 14 lists the register definition.

This initial value is clocked into the crossbar switch at a SYNC_YR rising edge pulse (when the array pointers jump back to row 1). The crossbar switch control bit selects the correspondence between multiplexer busses and output amplifiers. Bus-to-output correspondence is according to the following table: Bus when bit set to 0 1 output 1 2 output 2 3 (4 outputs) output 3 4 (4 outputs) output 4 when bit set to 1 output 2 output 1 output 4 output 3 13 1 = Toggle crossbar switch control bit on every odd/even line.

It can be extracted from photon transfer curves. column noise Variation of column mean signal strengths. The human eye is sensitive to line patterns so this noise is analyzed separately. conversion gain A constant that converts the number of electrons collected by a pixel into the voltage swing of the pixel. Conversion gain = q/C where q is the charge of an electron (1.602E 19 Coulomb) and C is the capacitance of the photodiode or sense node. CDS Correlated double sampling. This is a method for sampling a pixel where the pixel voltage after reset is sampled and subtracted from the voltage after exposure to light. CFA Color filter array. The materials deposited on top of pixels that selectively transmit color. color crosstalk The leakage of signal from one color channel into another when the imager is NOT saturated. The signal can leak through either optical means, in which a photon enters a pixel of the ‘wrong’ color, or electrical means, in which a charge carrier generated within one pixel diffuses into a neighboring pixel. CRA Chief ray angle. Oblique rays that pass through the center of a lens system aperture stop. Color filter array, metal, and micro lens shifts are determined by the chief ray angle of the optical system. In general, optical systems with smaller CRA are desired to minimize color artifacts DN Digital number. The number of bits (8, 12, 14, …) should also be specified. DNL Differential nonlinearity (for ADCs) DSNU Dark signal nonuniformity. This parameter characterizes the degree of nonuniformity in dark leakage currents, which can be a major source of fixed pattern noise. fill-factor A parameter that characterizes the optically active percentage of a pixel. In theory, it is the ratio of the actual QE of a pixel divided by the QE of a photodiode of equal area. In practice, it is never measured. grating monochromator An instrument that produces a monochromatic beam of light. It typically consists of a broadband light source such as a tungsten lamp and a diffraction grating for selecting a particular wavelength. INL Integral nonlinearity (for ADCs) luminance Light flux per unit area in photometric units (lux) IR Infrared. IR light has wavelengths in the approximate range 750 nm to 1 mm. irradiance Light flux per unit area in radiometric units (W/m2) Lag The persistence of signal after pixel reset when the irradiance changes from high to low values. In a video stream, lag appears as ‘ghost’ images that persist for one or more frames. Lux Photometric unit of luminance (at 550 nm, 1lux = 1 lumen/m2 = 1/683 W/m2) NIR Near Infrared. NIR is part of the infrared portion of the spectrum and has wavelengths in the approximate range 750 nm to 1400 nm. pixel noise Variation of pixel signals within a region of interest (ROI). The ROI typically is a rectangular portion of the pixel array and may be limited to a single color plane. photometric units Units for light measurement that take into account human physiology. photon transfer Measurement in which a bare imager (no external lens) is irradiated with uniform light from dark to saturation levels. Typically the source is collimated, monochromatic 550 nm light. Chapter 2 of J. Janesick's book, Scientific Charge Coupled Devices, describes the technique in detail. PLS Parasitic light sensitivity. Parasitic discharge of sampled information in pixels that have storage nodes. PRNU Photo-response nonuniformity. This parameter characterizes the spread in response of pixels, which is a source of FPN under illumination. QE Quantum efficiency. This parameter characterizes the effectiveness of a pixel in capturing photons and converting them into electrons. It is photon wavelength and pixel color dependent. radiometric units Units for light measurement based on physics. Rev. 7 | www.onsemi.com | Page 23 of 25 NOII4SM014KA read noise Noise associated with all circuitry that measures and converts the voltage on a sense node or photodiode into an output signal. reset The process by which a pixel photodiode or sense node is cleared of electrons. Soft reset occurs when the reset transistor is operated below the threshold. Hard reset occurs when the reset transistor is operated above threshold. reset noise Noise due to variation in the reset level of a pixel. In 3T pixel designs, this noise has a component (in units of volts) proportionality constant depending on how the pixel is reset (such as hard and soft). In 4T pixel designs, reset noise can be removed with CDS. responsivity The standard measure of photodiode performance (regardless of whether it is in an imager or not). Units are typically A/W and are dependent on the incident light wavelength. Note that responsivity and sensitivity are used interchangeably in image sensor characterization literature so it is best to check the units. reverse saturation Phenomenon in which the signal level decreases with increasing light intensity. It typically occurs at irradiance levels much higher than saturation, such as an image taken of the sun. ROI Region of interest. The area within a pixel array chosen to characterize noise, signal, crosstalk, and so on. The ROI can be the entire array or a small subsection; it can be confined to a single color plane. row noise Variation of row mean signal strengths. The human eye is sensitive to line patterns, so this noise is analyzed separately. sense node In 4T pixel designs, a capacitor used to convert charge into voltage. In 3T pixel designs it is the photodiode itself. sensitivity A measure of pixel performance that characterizes the rise of the photodiode or sense node signal in Volts upon illumination with light. Units are typically V/(W/m2)/sec and are dependent on the incident light wavelength. Sensitivity measurements are often taken with 550 nm incident light. At this wavelength, 1 683 lux = 1 W/m2; the units of sensitivity are quoted in V/lux/sec. Note that responsivity and sensitivity are used interchangeably in image sensor characterization literature so it is best to check the units. shot noise Noise that arises from measurements of discretised quanta (electrons or photons). It follows a Poisson distribution with the strength of the noise increasing as the square root of the signal. spectral response The photon wavelength dependence of sensitivity or responsivity. SNR Signal-to-noise ratio. This number characterizes the ratio of the fundamental signal to the noise spectrum up to half the Nyquist frequency. temporal noise Noise that varies from frame to frame. In a video stream, temporal noise is visible as twinkling pixels. tint Integration time.
