color CMOS QSXGA (5 megapixel) image sensor with OmniBSI™ technology

proprietary to OmniVision Technologies PRELIMINARY SPECIFICATION version 1.0
4.8 strobe flash and frame exposure
4.8.1 strobe flash control
The strobe signal is programmable. It supports both LED and Xenon modes. The polarity of the pulse can be changed.
The strobe signal is enabled (turned high/low depending on the pulse’s polarity) by requesting the signal via the SCCB
interface. Flash modules are triggered by the rising edge by default or by the falling edge if the signal polarity is changed.
It supports the following flashlight modes (see
table 4-9).
4.9 xenon flash control
After a strobe request is submitted, the strobe pulse will be activated at the beginning of the third frame (see figure 4-9).
The third frame will be correctly exposed. The pulse width can be changed in Xenon mode between 1H and 4H,
depending on register 0x3B00[3:2], where H is one row period.
