MCM20014
“dark clamping” is active, each dark pixel is processed
and held to establish pixel reference level at the CLRCA
and CLRCB pins. During this period, the FRC’s differen-
tial outputs (V+ and V- on the Diff Amp,

the desired zero code at the ADC output.
Care should be exercised in choosing the capacitors for
the CLRCA, B pins to reflect different frame rates.

Offset Voltage Adjust (DOVA)
A programmable per-column offset adjustment is avail-
able on the MCM20014. A user defined offset value can
be loaded via a 4-bit signed magnitude programming
code. This programmable DOVA allows the user to se-
lect offset coefficients for FPN & PRNU corrections and
channel offset normalization, and is used to correct for
column induced errors. In the default mode, data is au-
tomatically loaded into an onchip RAM that stores 704,

dividual column in the imaging array.

2.2.3 Digitally Programmable Gain Amplifiers
Two DPGAs are available in the analog signal process-
ing chain. These are used to perform white balance and
exposure gain functions. Both are linearly programma-
ble via 6-bit registers.
2.2.3.1 White Balance Control PGA
The sensor produces three primary color outputs, Red,
Green and Blue. These are monochrome signals that
represent luminance values in each of the primary col-
ors. When added in equal amounts they mix to make
neutral color. White balancing is a technique where the
gain coefficients of the green(0), red, blue, and green(3)
pixels comprising the Bayer pattern (see
set so as to equalize their outputs for neutral color
scenes. Since the sensitivity of the two green pixels in
the Bayer pattern may not be equal, an individual color
gain register is provided for each component of the Bay-
er pattern.
Once all color gain registers are loaded with the desired
gain coefficients, white balance is achieved in real time
and in analog space. The appropriate values are select-
ed and applied to the pixel output via a high speed path,
the delay of which is much shorter than the pixel clock
rate. Real time updates can be performed to any of the
gain registers. However, latency associated with the I
interface should be taken into consideration before
changes occur. In most applications, users will be able
to assign predefined settings such as daylight, fluores-
cent, tungsten, and halogen to cover a wide gamut of il-
lumination conditions.
Both DPGA designs use switched capacitors to mini-
mize accumulated offset and improve measurement ac-
curacy and dynamic range. The white balance gain
registers are 6-bits and can be programmed to allow
gain of 0.9x to 4.6x in steps of 0.06x.
The user programs the individual gain coefficients into
the MCM20014 via the Color Gain Registers
through
the color filter array;
addresses are as follows: Reg (00h): green pixel of a
green-red row; Reg (01h): red pixel; Reg (02h): blue pix-
el; and Reg (03h): green pixel of a blue-green row.
The MCM20014 is presently available with only a Bayer
CFA, however, it is designed to support other novel col-
or configurations. This is accomplished via the
