General Description
The ON Semiconductor MT9P401 is a 1/2.5-inch CMOS active-pixel digital image sensor with an active imaging pixel array of 2592H x 1944V. It incorporates sophisticated camera functions on-chip such as windowing, column and row skip mode, and snapshot mode. It is programmable through a simple two-wire serial interface.

FEATUREs
• High frame rate
• Superior low-light performance
• Low dark current
• Global reset release, which starts the exposure of all
   rows simultaneously
• Bulb exposure mode, for arbitrary exposure times
• Snapshot mode to take frames on demand
• Horizontal and vertical mirror image
• Column and row skip modes to reduce image size
   without reducing field-of-view (FOV)
• Column and row binning modes to improve image
   quality when resizing
• Simple two-wire serial interface
• Programmable controls: gain, frame rate, frame size,
   exposure
• Automatic black level calibration
• On-chip phase-locked loop (PLL)
• 720p HDTV video at 60 fps

APPLICATIONs
• Digital still cameras
• Digital video cameras
• PC cameras
• Converged DSCs/camcorders
• Cellular phones
• PDAs
