AR0237CS: 1/2.7-Inch 2.1 Mp/Full HD Digital Image Sensor

General Description

The ON Semiconductor AR0237 can be operated in its default mode or programmed for

frame size, exposure, gain, and other parameters. The default mode output is a 1080p-

resolution image at 60 frames per second (fps) through the HiSPi port. In linear mode, it

outputs 12-bit or 10-bit A-Law compressed raw data, using either the parallel or serial

(HiSPi) output ports. In high dynamic range mode, it outputs two exposure values that

the ISP will combine into an HDR image. The device may be operated in video (master)

mode or in single frame trigger mode.

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

synchronized pixel clock in parallel mode.

The AR0237 includes additional features to allow application-specific tuning:

windowing and offset, auto black level correction, and on-board temperature sensor.

Optional register information and histogram statistic information can be embedded in

the first and last 2 lines of the image frame.

The AR0237 is designed to operate over a wide temperature range of -30°C to +85°C

ambient.
