Machine vision

= the application of computer vision to industry and manufacturing (Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia).

Main machine vision needs:

(1) to image moving objects

(2) all about image performance rather than low power or cost (consumer applications)

―Interline CCD dominate(s/d) machine vision sensor market providing global shutter and high quality images

― Global shutter CMOS imagers introduced over the years

― CMOS images constantly improve in quality

― Global shuttering is the main differentiator between consumer (low cost) and machine vision (performance driven) CIS developments

VITA series, a true family

Note however that sensor architecture and pixel technology will be identical

for all VITA family members. Differences are limited to:

� Resolution and its impact on active optical area and chip size

� Package dimension, its pinning and the pinlist

� Only VITA 1300 and VITA 2000 have a parallel CMOS interface

variant on top of the default LVDS data interface

� VITA 1300, VITA 2000, VITA 5000 share same pixel and functionality

� VITA 25k has only 4.5µm pixel size, no PLL, AEC or WDR support

VISION 2010 – November 9th 2010 - Cypress VITA CMOS Image sensors – CYPRESS CONFIDENTIAL 16

Pixel

• Highly sensitive pixel with micro lenses

• 4.4 V/lux.sec @ 550 nm

• Pipelined global shutter with DS (integration during read out)

• Triggered global shutter with DS (successive integration and readout)

• Rolling shutter with CDS reducing noise floor <14 electrons

• The pixel is able to operate in several distinct shutter modes:

• Global Shutter Mode

• Pipelined – Master (Register controlled integration)

• Pipelined – Slave (User controlled integration)

• Triggered – Master (Register controlled integration)

• Triggered – Slave (User controlled integration)

• Rolling Shutter Mode

VISION 2010 – November 9th 2010 - Cypress VITA CMOS Image sensors – CYPRESS CONFIDENTIAL 17

ROI and windowing

The VITA sensors supports multiple window readout, which means that only the user-selected Region Of Interests (ROI) will be read out. This allows the user to limit the data output per frame, which allows increasing the frame rate.

• In global shutter mode, up to 8 ROI’s (32 for VITA 25k) can be configured.

• In rolling shutter mode, only a single ROI is supported.

VISION 2010 – November 9th 2010 - Cypress VITA CMOS Image sensors – CYPRESS CONFIDENTIAL 18

Sub-sampling

VITA sensors supports two(2) sub-sampling modes:

• read-1-skip-1 for monochrome sensors

• read-2-skip-2 for color sensors

Horizontal voltage averaging also supported.

VISION 2010 – November 9th 2010 - Cypress VITA CMOS Image sensors – CYPRESS CONFIDENTIAL 19

Output interfaces

VITA sensors support 2 different data output interfaces:

• LVDS Output: 4 LVDS Output channels, together with an LVDS clock output and an LVDS synchronization output channel:

• LVDS data channels operate at 620 Mbps in 10-bit mode

• A synchronization LVDS channel and an LVDS output clock signal are foreseen to synchronize the data

• The data channels only contain image data. The sync channel transmits information about the data sent over these data channels (includes codes indicating black pixels, normal pixels, and CRC codes)

• 10-bit Parallel CMOS Output (only on VITA 1300 and VITA 2000):

• This output is combined with a CMOS clock output and ‘frame valid’ and ‘line valid’ CMOS output signals
