The LM9833 is a complete USB image scanner system on a single IC. The LM9833 provides all the functions (image sensor control, illumination control, analog front end, pixel processing function image data buffer/DRAM controller, microstepping motor controller, and USB interface) necessary to create a high performance color scanner. The LM9833 scans images in 48 bit color/16 bit gray, and has output data formats for 48 and 24bit color/16 and 8 bit gray. The LM9833 supports sensors with pixel counts of up to 16384 pixels x 3 colors (1200 dpi x 13.6 inches).
