MT9D111 - 1/3.2-Inch 2-Megapixel SOC Digital Image Sensor
Feature Description
Micron Confidential and Proprietary
Global Reset
The sensor core provides a global reset mode in which the pixel integration time is con-
trolled by an external mechanical shutter. The sensor can then operate on a lower clock
frequency, reducing the bandwidth on the interface between the sensor and the host
processor without losing image quality.
The basic operation is as follows:
1. The sensor operates in either preview or full-frame mode (electronic rolling shutter
[ERS]).
2. A rising edge on the signal GRST_CTR or a WRITE to an internal register starts the glo-
bal reset sequence.
3. The sensor now enters the snapshot mode and after a certain time, all the lines in the
sensor array are reset and kept in a reset state until the integration starts.
The start of the integration (exposure) period, the assertion of STROBE, the start of the
readout, and the de-assertion of STROBE can be controlled by internal registers (T1, T2,
T3, and T4, as shown in Figure 29).
The sensor core provides an output signal, STROBE, that can be used to control the
mechanical shutter. This signal can be programmed to occur in a specified window
around the actual start of integration. During global reset, FLASH is programmed in a
different way than during normal ERS operation. Normally, the FLASH behavior is pro-
grammed using R0x23:0. In global reset mode, FLASH is programmed in the same way as
STROBE, showed in Figure 29, using registers R0xC5:0 and R0xC6:0.
R0xC0:0[0] controls the mechanism for starting the readout after a GLOBAL RESET oper-
ation. If this bit is HIGH, the integration time is directly controlled by GRST_CTR. Very
long integration times can be achieved this way.

Analog Signal Path
The sensor core features two identical analog readout channels. A block diagram for one
channel is shown in Figure 30. The readout channel consists of two gain stages (ASC1
and ASC2), a sample-and-hold (ADCSH) stage with black level calibration capability
(V
OFFSET), and a 10-bit ADC.
