8209023 rev 5 13/107 vx6953cb overview the sensor main function is to convert the vi ewed scene into a data stream. the companion processor function is to manage the sensor so that it can produce the best possible pictures and to process the data stream into a form which is easily handled by up-stream mobile baseband or multi-media processor (mmp) chipsets. the sensor supplies high-speed clock signals to the processor and provides the embedded control sequences which allow the coprocessor to synchronize with the frame and line level timings. the processor then performs the color processing on the raw image data from the sensor before supplying the final image data to the host. with the coprocessor system, the clock is s ent by host to both the vx6953cb and the coprocessor. the high-speed clock for the copr ocessor is supplied from the vx6953cb. it is generated using the vx6953cb pll and is prov ided as the continuous data qualification clock. 1.2 vx6953cb use in a system wi th software image processing the vx6953cb image sensor can be directly connected to a baseband or multimedia processor. no dedicated coprocessor is used in this configuration. the image processing is done in software or hardware within the baseband processor. figure 2. vx6953cb in a system with software image processing systems with a ccp 2.0 interface can operate with this device, however they may have a maximum ccp link speed of 650 mbps and theref ore will not be able to achieve 15 fps with this device. systems with csi-2 interface (mipi) can operat e with this sensor. with a 800 mbps csi-2 link speed, they can achieve 15 fps in full size image. mobile baseband processor xshutdown extclk smia cci ccp vx6953cb imaging processes cci ccp2 tx pixel array and

functional description vx6953cb 18/107 8209023 rev 5 3.2 digital video block the main features of the digital video block are: ? frame rate: 16.65 frame/s maximum can be reduced down to less than 3 frame/s (5.0 mpixel) using frame extension ? automatic dark calibration to ensure consistent video level over varying scenes ? on-chip power-on-reset cell ? output format: 5.0 mpixel 2608 x 1960 (maximum) 3.2.1 dark calibration algorithm the vx6953cb runs a dark calibration algorithm on the raw image data to control the video offsets caused by dark current. this ensures that a high quality image is output over a range of operating conditions. the first frame dark level is correctly calibrated, for subsequent frames the adjustment of the dark level is damped by a leaky integrator function to avoid possible frame to frame flicker. 3.3 device operating modes figure 5. system state diagram power-off csi-2 hw-standby csi-2 sw_standby csi-2 csi-2 streaming sw_standby ccp2 ccp2 streaming power supplies off power supplies off power supplies off power supplies on cci cci cci cci xshutdown xshutdown power supplies off xshutdown is high cci is low xshutdown is low is low power supplies off

functional description vx6953cb 26/107 8209023 rev 5 3.4.4 failsafe signals all signals going into the vx6953cb must be at either a low state or a high impedance when power is removed from the device. the exceptions to this rule are the extclk, xshutdown and the cci signals. these pads have been designed to be high impedance when the vx6953cb is powered-down. this means that the input signal on the specified pads can either be high or low with no leakage problems. 3.5 clock and frame rate timing 3.5.1 video frame rate control the output frame rate of vx6953cb can be reduced by extending either the line length or the frame length. the extension is achieved by adding extra blanking bytes at the end of a line or ?blank? video lines to act as timing padding. the frame rate can be reduced from the default 15 frame/s at 5.0 mpixel resolution to less than 3 frame/s at 5.0 mpixel resolution. the advantage of the frame extension approach is that it does not reduce the pixel readout rate or the active frame time and therefore do es not introduce unwanted motion distortion effects to the image. 3.5.2 pll and clock input the vx6953cb has an embedded pll block. this block generates all necessary internal clocks from an input range defined in table 8 . the input clock pad accepts up to 27 mhz signals. the input clock can be a sine wave or square wave. table 8. system input clock frequency range min.

8209023 rev 5 51/107 vx6953cb video timing 6 video timing 6.1 output size the vx6953cb has the following methods available to achieve the required output size, these can be used independently or in conjunction with any other: ? programmable addressable region of the pixel array ? programmable width and height for output image data ? scaling ? subsampling the programmable image size and output si ze are independent functions. it is the responsibility of the ho st to ensure that these function s are programmed correctly for the intended application. these functions also redu ce the amount of data and therefore reduce the peak data rate of ccp2/csi-2. 6.1.1 programmable addressable region of the pixel array the native size for the vx6953cb is 2592 x 1944, the maximum addressable array is 2608 x 1960 which gives border pixels (outer eight rows and eight columns) for the color reconstruction algorithms to use at the edges of the array. by programming the x_addr_start, y_addr_start, x_addr_end and y_addr_end registers it is possible to use the full size of the array as yo u would do for a native size output or you can select a ?window of interest?. the addressed regi on of the array is used in any subsequent sub-sampling or scaling. see figure 14 . figure 14. programmable addressable region of the pixel array the host must ensure the following rules are kept; ? the end address must be greater than the start address ? the x and y start addresses are restricted to even numbers only, and the x and y end addresses are restricted to odd numbers only, to ensure that there is always a even number of pixels readout y_addr_max =1959 x_addr_max =2607 y_addr_min = 0 x_addr_min = 0 x_addr_max, y_addr_max x_addr_end, y_addr_end addressed pixel array region x_addr_start, y_addr_start x_addr_min, y_addr_min
video timing vx6953cb 52/107 8209023 rev 5 6.1.2 programmable width and he ight for output image data the x_output_size and y_output_size registers are not intended as the primary cropping controls. they are intended to define the position of th e le/fe codes in the ccp data frame so that the sensor does not need to calculate this based on region of interest or sub-sampling settings. it should be expected that the host w ill set the output sizes to exactly enclose the output image data. if the host should not do this, the vx6953cb treats the output sizes as being calculated from the top left hand corner of the output array. so in the case where output sizes are smaller than the output data, the data is cropped from its right hand and lower limits. in the case where output sizes are larger than the output data, the lines shall be padded out to the defined output size with undefined data. figure 15. output size within a ccp data frame ccp2 requires that the number of pixels between the line start and the line end sync codes is: ? a multiple of 4 pixels for raw8 ? a multiple of 16 pixels for raw10 the host must control the x_output_size to ensure that the above criteria is met. 6.1.3 scaling the vx6953cb module is compliant with the ?profile level 2 - fu ll (horizontal and vertical)? level of image scaling. the image scaling function within the sensor module provides a flexible way of generating lower resolution full field of view image data, at a reduced data rates, for viewfinder and video applications. the scaler is able to scale the full resolution of the sensor module down to within 10% of a the target image size (the smallest output size is 256 x 192). this flexibility means that the vx6953cb module can support a wide range of lcd viewfinder sizes and different codec resolutions. the vx6953cb has three scaling modes which are controlled by the scaling_mode register shown in figure 16 . ccp output active line length interline padding interframe padding x_output_size y_output_size output data ccp embedded ls codes ccp embedded checksum codes ccp embedded le codes fe fs embedded data lines dummy columns

video timing vx6953cb 56/107 8209023 rev 5 binning repair binning can introduce some phases errors from the image perspective as it clusters the output of each color channel. gr,r,b and gb binned pixels are located around the same intersection point on the output lattice. to reduce this error, a binning ip is integrated into the imaging data path. the ip moves each binned color channel by 1/8 of an inter-pixel distance. therefore the top-left gr pixel moves into the top-left corner, the r pixel in the top-right moves in the top-right direction. this is shown in figure 20 . figure 20. binning repair 6.2 video timing this section specifies the timing for the image data that is readout from the pixel array and the output image data. these are not necessarily the same size. the application of all of the video timing read/w rite parameters must be retimed to the start of the frame boundary to ensure that the parameters are consistent within a frame. the video stream which is output from the vx 6953cb contains both video data and other auxiliary information. the vx6 953cb output coding conforms to the ccp raw8 and raw10 data format (see smia 1.0 part 2: ccp2 specification) including line checksums. reference smia 1.0 specification section 5 for a detailed description of video timing. 6.2.1 pll block the vx6953cb contains a phase locked loop (pll) block, which generates all the necessary internal clo cks from the external clock input. ch anges to the pll settings on the vx6953cb will only be consumed on the softwa re standby to str eaming mode transition. figure 21 shows the internal functional blocks, which define the relationship between the external input clock frequency and the pixel clock frequency. the majority of the logic withi n the device is clocked by vt_sys_clk however the cci block is clocked by the external input clock. image after binning ?displacement? vectors of the pixels image after phase shifts

8209023 rev 5 61/107 vx6953cb video timing fifo the fifo is used to implement the data rate reduction required for profile 1 and 2 operation. the concept of an output frame length and a line length for the output timing domain does not exist for smia devices such as the vx6953cb. this is a result of the fifo input data patterns being different depending on scaling factor and if the data is co-sited or bayer sampled, which results in vari able interframe and interline blanking time between lines and between frames. figure 23. smia output timing when the fifo reaches a certain level of usage the ccp transmitter starts outputting a line containing x_output_size pixels . this then naturally tracks any variation in the input data rate, if the water mark is set co rrectly underflow is not possible. figure 24. fifo water mark control if the derating factor >= downscale factor then the average input rate of a burst of a line of scaler output data into the fifo is always faster than the output data rate, in this case the fifo_water_mark_pixels can be set to eight as th e fifo input data rate is always faster than the fifo output data rate. if the derating factor < downscale factor then the average input rate of a burst of a line of scaler output data into the fifo is slower than the output data rate, in this case the fifo_water_mark_pixels must be set to avoid underflow. output data: 2608 pixels x 1960 lines output line length (does not exist in smia) output frame length (does not exist in smia) ccp active video line blanking cs le fifo water mark level = ccp output trigger fifo usage ls ls le cs data data x_output_size + additional_cols x_output_size + additional_cols

video timing vx6953cb 64/107 8209023 rev 5 6.4 image compression the objective of the image compression is to reduce the required bandwidth in transmission between the sensor and the host. the key features of the dpcm/pcm compression algorithm are: ? visually lossless ? low cost implementation (no line memories are required) ? fixed rate compression the 10-bit to 8-bit dpcm/pcm image compression algorithm is supported by vx6953cb. 10-bit to 8-bit compression has the additional advantage that one pixel value equals 1 byte of data. the level of compression is controlled thro ugh the csi_data_format register. the same register is also used to enable and disable compression. the compression_mode register is used to sele ct the compression algorithm. currently only the dpcm/pcm technique is supported. therefor e the value of this register is always 0x01. the compression_capability regist er tells the host whether a s ensor module does or does not have compression and, if it has compressio n, what is the compre ssion technique. again currently only the dpcm/pcm technique is supported. please also refer to section 10 of the smia1.0 specif ication document. 6.5 exposure and gain control vx6953cb does not contain any form of automatic exposure control. to produce a correctly exposed image the integration period and analogue gain for the pixels must be calculated by an exposure control algorithm implemented externally. the parameters are the written to the vx6953cb using the cci interface. the exposure control parameters available on vx6953cb are: ? fine integration time ? coarse integration time ? analog gain ? digital gain the exposure control parameter registers are defined in chapter 4 on page 29 . integration time and analogue gain capability registers should be used to determine the exposure control parameter limits for a given video timing configuration. see section 6.7 of the smia 1.0 part 1 specification for more info rmation on how to interpret the integration and gain capability registers and how to calculate exposure and gain limits. 6.5.1 analogue gain model vx6953cb only supports the single global analog gain mode. vx6953cb has a 16-bit register (0x0204 and 0x0205) to control analog gain. however, only 4 bits are supported by the smia1.0 description. two extra bits can be used for fine gain between values 8 and 16 but their description is not currently supported by smia1.0 specification. figure 26 shows how the analog gain bits are used for vx6953cb. use only coarse gain bits for standard 1/x functionality.

8209023 rev 5 69/107 vx6953cb edof control 8 edof control the vx6953cb module uses a fixed focused le ns with optical aberrations that the edof reconstruction engine is designed for so as to recover the resolution and increase the depth of field in the range of 15 cm to infinity. t he focus is tuned for far distances > 2m but for closer distances where a standard fixed focus camera would show a blur image, the edof correction is capable of recovering significantly the resolution. figure 29. what is sharp? some optics facts: ? the depth of focus narrows with reduction in object distance or with aperture increase. ? if the lens is focussed at the hyper-focal distance, the sharpness will be the same from hyperfocal/2 to infinity. ? the depth of field is defined by the range of scene distances that appears acceptably sharp in the image. ? the size of a pixel (1.4um) can be defined as a blurred spot. a blurred spot smaller than 1.4um is registered as sharp. above that va lue the spot will look blurred (refer to circle of confusion graph). considering the above points, edof aims to make the blur spot invariant (or change its reference) over a range of objects distances, thus defeating the obvious geometric optical effects to enhance the depth of field.
edof control vx6953cb 70/107 8209023 rev 5 the plot in figure 30 shows the edof main principle: figure 30. edof main principle 8.1 edof capabilities the edof reconstruction engine is applied to the image after defect correction. it has denoising, sharpening, deconvolution algorith ms among others that allow recovering the resolution. the end user should not use the edof ip as a sharpness block. edof has a depth of field recovery role. oversharpening the image using edof before the host image processing might alter the final image quality. the edof reconstruction engine can improve the depth of field for a coloured image in the range of 30 cm to infinity and for a monochrome image below 30 cm. the edof block works with ranges of distan ces for which the corr ection applied will be different: ? 5 mpixel edof camera: ? super macro mode: < 30cm ? macro mode: 30cm to 59cm ? portrait: 60cm to 249cm ? landscape: 250cm to infinity the distance estimation analyzes gradients and relative sharpness among channels. it first returns a measure of the sharpest chann el in the image giving a macro ?vote? when the sharpest channel is the blue one, portrait when it?s the green and landscape when it?s the red. the relative sharpness among channel varies with the object distance but also in the field of the image (field curvature), so the votes are then weighted by calibration data in order to obtain the most appropriate mode or distance at the output. note: the aim of the distance estimation is not to obtain a precise distance but to select the best parameterization for the correction to be applied in capture, therefore the returned distance or specified distances range is indicative only.
8209023 rev 5 71/107 vx6953cb edof control like an auto-focus module: ? the algorithm has failure cases, but the corr ection is constrained in order to always have acceptable image quality even if not optimal. ? for a single image several modes are often possible and giving same level of image quality. for overlap distances (between macro and portrait modes, or between portrait and landscape modes), two of the channels may have the same level of sharpness, so any of the two corresponding distances could be returned, depending on scene content and field curvature of the module. for scenes with objects at different distances, any of the three distances could be returned depending on content of the sc ene, field curvature of the module and spatial weights used for estimation (edof_estimation_control). supermacro mode is used for bar code and business card reading. supermacro mode uses a monochrome image. below 30cm distance, the mtf is lost and there is too little green and red pixel information to build a colored image. however, the blue pixel has enough mtf to reconstruct a monochrome image. 8.2 control interface vx6953 has a 100 khz/400 khz i 2 c compatible 2-wire control in terface. it uses the smia 16-bit index, 8-bit data message format. the cci interfaces allows the programming of the edof control register. 8.3 edof control registe rs [0x0b80 to 0x0b8a] table 41. edof registers [0x0b80 to 0x0b8a] index byte register name data type default type comment 0x0b80 edof_mode 8ui 00 rw edof control 0 - edof disabled (power saving) 1 - edof application (capture) 2 - edof estimation (preview) 0x0b82 edof_est_focus_distance 8ui 32 ro the estimated focus point (cm) 0x0b83 edof_sharpness 8ui 00 rw edof sharpness control 0x7f: manual mode 0x80 to 0xff: automatic mode 0x0b84 edof_denoising 8ui 00 rw edof denoising control 0x0b85 edof_module_specific 8ui 00 r w edof noise vs details control

8209023 rev 5 75/107 vx6953cb edof control 8.5 video modes and edof setting a video mode implies targetting a reducti on in the image size and an increase of the frame rate. the st 5 mpixel cameras are smia profile 2 compliant therefore output images can be downscaled in both x and y dimensions either using a digital scaling post edof engine or by subsampling pixels before the edof engine. downsampling or binning by a factor of two or more in each direction increases the sharpness enough to remove the need to process the raw image. therefore image processing is disabled in preview mode within the edof processor in order to save power and the image is simply copied on the outpu t. the consequence is that the image must be subsampled by a factor of 2x2 at least to get distance information and a usable raw image. to summarize, it is recommended that edof is forced to landscape mode when in video: ? if subsampling or binning is used and outp ut image is at least full size image/4 ? if a scaling+cropping method is used from a full size image to output a smaller image and output image < (2*full size image)/3 ? for a crop of a full resolution image 8.6 edof and white balance the edof reconstruction engine requires the white balance gains to be programmed by the host (by i2c writes) frame after frame to the colour feedback register (0x0b8e-0x0b95) of the sensor. these white balance gains must be corresponding the wb output ones to prevent from fringing artefacts. these gains are also used for the sensor adaptive lens shading correction if enabled. the white balance gains are required in both preview and capture modes. the four host white balance gains to be programmed are listed in table 42 . table 42. color feedback registers [0x0b8c to 0x0b95] index byte register name data type default type comment 0x0b8c hi colour_temperature 16sr 00.00 rw not supported by vx6953cb 0x0b8d lo 0x0b8e hi host_wb_stats_green_red 16ur 01.00 rw white balance gains to be applied by the host. these stats are used by the edof and the adaptive av to estimate the color temperature of the scene. 0x0b8f lo 0x0b90 hi host_wb_stats_red 16ur 01.00 rw 0x0b91 lo 0x0b92 hi host_wb_stats_blue 16ur 01.00 rw 0x0b93 lo 0x0b94 hi host_wb_stats_green_blue 16ur 01.00 rw 0x0b95 lo
