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.
