MT9D111 - 1/3.2-Inch 2-Megapixel SOC Digital Image Sensor
Feature Description
Micron Confidential and Proprietary
Flash STROBE
The sensor core supports both Xenon and LED flash through FLASH output. The timing
of FLASH with the default settings is shown in Figure 26, Figure 27, and Figure 28.
R0x23:0 allows the timing of the flash to be changed.
The flash can be programmed to:
• fire only once
• be delayed by a few frames when asserted
• and (for Xenon flash) the flash duration can be programmed
When Xenon flash is enabled, an integration time significantly smaller than one frame
causes uneven exposure of the image, as does setting a flash pulse width larger than ver-
tical blanking.
Enabling the LED flash causes one bad frame in which several rows have the flash on
during only part of their integration time. This can be avoided by forcing a restart (write
R0x0D:0[1] = 1) immediately after enabling the flash; the first bad frame is then masked
out as shown in Figure 28. Read-only bit R0x23:0[14] is set during frames that are cor-
rectly integrated; the state of this bit is shown below.
