1 Introduction

The AR0134 module is a 1/3 inch 1.2MP global shutter color camera module which can be

operated in its default mode or programmed for frame size, exposure, gain, and other parameters.

The default mode output is a full-resolution image at 54 frames per second (fps). It outputs 12-bit

raw data, using either the parallel output ports. The device may be operated in video (master)

mode or in frame trigger mode.

FRAME_VALID and LINE_VALID signals are output on dedicated pins, along with a

synchronized pixel clock. A dedicated FLASH pin can be programmed to control external LED or

flash exposure illumination.

The AR0134 includes additional features to allow application-specific tuning: windowing,

adjustable auto-exposure control, auto black level correction, on-board temperature sensor, and

row skip and digital binning modes.

The AR0134 is a progressive-scan sensor that generates a stream of pixel data at a constant

frame rate. It uses an on-chip, phase-locked loop (PLL) that can be optionally enabled to generate

all internal clocks from a single master input clock running between 6 and 50 MHz. The

maximum output pixel rate is 74.25 Mp/s, corresponding to a clock rate of 74.25 MHz.
