The Smart Choice
With revolutionary CMOS active-pixel technology,
Micron’s ultra low-power MT9V011 image sensor
combines superb VGA resolution with many advan-
tages not available in standard charged-coupled
devices (CCDs).
It outputs high-quality, progressive-scan images
at up to 30 fps while extending battery life much
longer than its CCD competitors, making it the
smart choice for cellular phones, PDAs, dual-mode
PC cameras, and many other consumer and indus-
trial applications.
Board Space. The Finite Frontier.
The MT9V011’s sophisticated camera functions,
including windowing, row mirroring, left-right and
up-down frame reversal, electronic rolling shutter
(ERS), and column mirroring have been integrated
directly onto the chip, reducing the number of
additional parts normally needed by CCDs and mini-
mizing the device’s form factor and the board space
needed by the application.
Its variable functions (also included directly on the
chip) like programmable gain, frame rate, and expo-
sure control, can be operated in their default modes
or programmed by the end-user through a simple
two-wire serial interface.
Faster Times-To-Market
Another powerful advantage of Micron’s CMOS
technology is how fast and easy it is to implement
in cameras. Designers are not only able to devise
smaller, higher-performance applications that con-
sume less power, but are able to get them on store
shelves faster than those who insist on using CCDs.
Applications
l Cellular phones
l PDAs
l PC cameras
