GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD9994 is a highly integrated CCD signal processor for
digital still camera applications. It includes a complete analog
front end with A/D conversion, combined with a full-function
programmable timing generator. The timing generator is capable
of up to 12-phase vertical clocking to support advanced CCDs
with 4-field and 5-field readout. A Precision Timing core allows
adjustment of high speed clocks with approximately 600 ps
resolution at 36 MHz operation.
The AD9994 is specified at pixel rates of up to 36 MHz. The
analog front end includes black level clamping, CDS, VGA, and
a 12-bit A/D converter. The timing generator provides all the
necessary CCD clocks: RG, H-clocks, V-clocks, sensor gate
pulses, substrate clock, and substrate bias control. Operation is
programmed using a 3-wire serial interface.
Packaged in a 64-lead LFCSP, the AD9994 is specified over an
operating temperature range of –25°C to +85°C.
