Start-Up and Usage
Micron Confidential and Proprietary
giving preference to increase in gain. ae.maxGain23 specifies maximum allowed gain
in this situation. ae.VirtGain indicates current green channel gain.
In darker situations, the gain achieves ae.maxGain23 and the integration time is
allowed to increase again up to ae.maxIndex.
In yet darker situations, once the integration time achieves ae.maxIndex, the analog
gain is allowed to increase up to ae.maxVirtGain.
In very dark conditions, the digital IFP gains are allowed to increase up to
ae.maxDGainAE1 and ae.maxDGainAE2.
ADC is used as an additional gain stage by adjusting reference levels. See ae.ADC* vari-
ables.

Lens Correction Zones
In order to increase the precision of the correction function, the image plane is divided
into 8 zones in each dimension. The coordinates of zone boundaries are referenced with
respect to the lens center, C. Each boundary as well as C (Cx, Cy) coordinate is stored as a
byte, which represents the coordinate value divided by 4. There always three boundaries
to the left (top) of the center and three to the right (bottom) of the center. These bound-
aries apply uniformly for each color channel. However, the correction functions are pro-
grammable independently for each color component. Boundary and lens center
positions are also valid for the preview mode. Figure 40 illustrates the lens correction
zones.
