KAC-12040

4000 (H) x 3000 (V) CMOS Image Sensor

Description

The KAC−12040 Image Sensor is a high-speed 12 megapixel CMOS image sensor in a 4/3″ optical format based on a 4.7 mm 5T CMOS platform. The image sensor features very fast frame rate, excellent NIR sensitivity, and flexible readout modes with multiple regions of interest (ROI). The readout architecture enables use of 8, 4, or 2 LVDS output banks for full resolution readout of 70 frames per second.

Each LVDS output bank consists of up to 8 differential pairs operating at 160 MHz DDR for a 320 Mbps data rate per pair. The pixel architecture allows rolling shutter operation for motion capture with optimized dynamic range or global shutter for precise still image capture.

1. DI = Digital Input, DO = Digital Output, AO = Analog Output.

2. Tie unused DI pins to Ground, NC unused DO pins.

3. By default Clk_In2 should equal Clk_In1 and should be the same source clock.

4. The RESETN pin has a 62 kW internal pull-up resistor, so if left floating the chip will not be in reset mode.

5. The TRIGGER pin has an internal 100 kW pull down resistor. If left floating (and at default polarity) then the sensor state will not be affected by this pin (i.e. defaults to ‘not triggered’ mode if floated).

6. All of the DI and DO pins nominally operate at 0 V → 2.0 V and are associated with the VDD_DIG power supply.

Power vs. Frame Rate

The most effective method to use the maximum PLL2 speed (313 → 320 MHz) and control frame rate with minimum Power and maximum image quality is to adjust Vertical Blanking. (register 01F1h). Unnecessary chip

operations are suspended during Vertical Blanking conserving significant power consumption and also minimizing the image storage time on the storage node when in Global Shutter Operation.

NOTE: The LVDS clock is ½ the PLL2 clock speed.

Test Descriptions

1) Dark Field Local Non-Uniformity Floor (DSNU_flr)

This test is performed under dark field conditions. A 4 frame average image is collected. This image is partitioned into 300 sub-regions of interest, each of which is 200 by 200 pixels in size. For each sub-region the standard deviation of all its pixels is calculated. The dark field local non-uniformity is the largest standard deviation found from all the sub regions of interest. Units: e

−

rms (electrons rms).

2) Bright Field Global Photoresponse Non-Uniformity (PRNU_1)

The sensor illuminated to 70% of saturation (~700 dn). In this condition a 4 frame average image is collected. From this 4 frame average image a 4 frame average dark image is subtracted. The Active Area Standard Deviation is the standard deviation of the resultant image and the Active Area Signal is the average of the resultant image.

3) Bright Field Global Peak to Peak Non-Uniformity (PRNU_2)

This test is performed with the sensor uniformly illuminated to 70% of saturation (~700 dn), a 4 frame average image is collected and a 4 frame averaged dark image is subtracted. The resultant image is partitioned into 300 sub regions of interest, each of which is 200 by 200 pixels in size. The average signal level of each sub regions of interest (sub-ROI) is calculated.

The highest sub-ROI average (Maximum Signal) and the lowest sub-ROI average (Minimum Signal) are then used in the following formula to calculate PRNU_2.

4) Dark Field Defect Test

This test is performed under dark field conditions. The sensor is partitioned into 300 sub regions of interest, each of which is 128 by 128 pixels in size. In each region of interest, the median value of all pixels is found. For each region of interest, a pixel is marked defective if it is greater than or equal to the median value of that region of interest plus the defect threshold specified in the Defect Definition Table section.

5) Bright Field Defect Test

This test is performed with the imager illuminated to a level such that the output is at approximately 700 dn. The average signal level of all active pixels is found. The bright and dark thresholds are set as:

Dark Defect Threshold = Active Area Signal ⋅ Threshold Bright Defect Threshold = Active Area Signal ⋅ Threshold

The sensor is then partitioned into 300 sub regions of interest, each of which is 128 by 128 pixels in size. In each region of interest, the average value of all pixels is found. For each region of interest, a pixel is marked defective if it is greater than or equal to the median value of that region of interest plus the bright threshold specified or if it is less than

or equal to the median value of that region of interest minus the dark threshold specified.

Example for bright field defective pixels:

• Average value of all active pixels is found to be 700 dn

• Lower defect threshold: 700 dn ⋅ 12% = 84 dn

• A specific 128 × 128 ROI is selected:

♦ Median of this region of interest is found to be

690 dn.

♦ Any pixel in this region of interest that is

≤ (690 − 84 dn) in intensity will be marked

defective.

♦ Any pixel in this region of interest that is

≥ (690 − 84 dn) in intensity will be marked

defective.

• All remaining 299 sub regions of interest are analyzed

for defective pixels in the same manner.

6) Parasitic Light Sensitivity (PLS)

Parasitic Light Sensitivity is the ratio of the light sensitivity of the photodiode to the light sensitivity of the storage node in Global Shutter. There is no equivalent distortion in Rolling Shutter. A low PLS value can provide distortion of the image on the storage node by the scene during readout.

PLS +

GSE (Global Shutter Efficiency) is a related unit.

Detailed Method: Photodiode Responsivity:

The sensor is set in global shutter serial mode (integration time not overlapping readout) and the FLO signal is used to control a 550 nm normal incident (or large f# focused) illumination source so that the sensor is illuminated only during photodiode integration time (not illuminated during readout time). The integration time is not critical but should be large enough to create a measurable mean during this time. A 16 frame-average illuminated photodiode image is recorded. A 16 frame-average dark frame using the same sensor settings is captured and is subtracted from the illuminated image.

Detailed Method: Storage Node Responsivity:

The sensor is set to a special characterization mode where the PD signal is discarded and does not impact the storage node. A long total frame time (storage node exposure time) is used to increase the storage node signal. A 16 frame-average dark frame is captured. The sensor is illuminated by the same 550 nm incident light source used for the photodiode responsivity. A 16 frame-average illuminated photodiode image is recorded; the dark frame image is subtracted from this. The integration time is not critical but should be set such that a significant response is detected, typically several orders of magnitude greater than the photodiode integration time.

7) Black-Sun Anti-Blooming

A typical CMOS image sensor has a light response profile that goes from 0 dn to saturation (1023 dn for KAC−12040 in 10 bit ADC mode) and, with enough light, back to 0 dn. The sensor reaching 0 dn at very bright illumination is often called the “Black-sun” artifact and is undesirable. Black-sun artifact is typically the dominant form of anti-blooming image distortion. For the KAC−12040 the Black-sun artifact threshold is measured at the onset of saturation distortion, not at the point where the output goes to 0 dn. To first order the onset of black-sun artifact for the KAC−12040 is not proportional to the integration time or readout time.

The sensor is placed in the dark at unity gain and illuminated with a 532 nm laser with the intensity of about 26 W/cm

at the center of the sensor. The laser is strong enough to make the center of the laser spot below 1020 dn without any ND filters. ND filters are added to adjust the laser intensity until the signal in the region at the center of the spot increases to > 1020 dn.

This illumination intensity at this ND filter is recorded

(W/cm

) as the Black-Sun Anti-blooming.

The ‘xIlumSat’ unit is calculated using and integration

time of 100 msec.

Exposing the sensor to very strong illumination for extended periods of time will permanently alter the sensor performance in that localized region.

8) Read Noise

This test is performed with no illumination and one line of integration time. The read noise is defined as one standard deviation of the frequency histogram containing the values of all pixels after the excessively deviant pixels (± three standard deviations) are removed.

9) Column Noise

After all rows are averaged together. Shading (low frequency change wrt column address) is removed. A frequency histogram is constructed of the resulting column values. The column noise is the standard deviation of the frequency histogram of the column values.

10) Row Noise

All columns are averaged together. Shading (low frequency change wrt row address) is removed. A frequency histogram is constructed of the resulting row values. The row noise is the standard deviation of the frequency histogram of the row values.

11) Maximum Photoresponse Non-Linearity

The photoresponse non-linearity is defined as the deviation from the best fit of the sensor response using 70% of saturation and zero signal as the reference points. The different signal levels are determined by varying the integration time. The sensor saturation level is (1023-dark offset). The dark offset is subtracted from the image for the following M

12) Maximum Gain Difference between Outputs

The sensor contains two ADC and four channels of analog data in its highest frame rate configuration. The sensor is factory calibrated to reduce the gain differences between the channels. The gain variations are manifest as a row oriented pattern where every other row uses a different ADC. Using triple scan read out mode, an additional two analog channels are introduced resulting in a four row pattern. With one channel (‘Top Ping’) used as the reference, the residual gain difference is defined as:

13) Photodiode Dark Current

The photodiode dark current is measured in rolling shutter read out mode using 105 ms integration time and an analog gain = 8. The value is converted to electrons/pix/sec using the formula:

Photodiode Dark Current + Aver. Signal (DN) @

where ‘average signal (DN)’ is the average of all pixels in the sensor array, and ‘el-per-DN (gain=8)’ is measured on each sensor using the photon transfer method.

14) Storage Node Dark Current

The storage node dark current is measured in global shutter read out mode using a special timing mode to prevent the photodiode dark current from being transferred to the storage node. In global shutter mode, the integration time of the storage node is the time it takes to read out a frame. The sensor analog gain is set to 2:

Storage Node Dark Current + Aver. Signal (DN) @

where ‘average signal (DN)’ is the average of all pixels in the sensor array and ‘el-per-DN (gain=2)’ is measured on each sensor using the photon transfer method.

15) Lag

Lag is measured as the number of electrons left in the photodiode after readout when the sensor is illuminated at 70% of Photodiode Charge Capacity.

(gain=2)

Analog gain is set to 8. With no illumination a 64 average dark image is recorded (Dark_ref). The ‘el-per-DN’ is measured using the photon transfer method.

Illumination is adjusted blink every other frame such that the mean image output is 70% of the Photodiode Charge Capacity for even frames, and with no illumination for odd frames. A 64 frame average of Odd Dark Frames is recorded as Dark_Lag.

Lag +(Dark_Lag * Dark_Ref)@ el−per−DN Units : Electrons rms

16) Photodiode Charge Capacity

The sensor analog gain is reduced to < 1 to prevent ADC clipping at 1023 dn. The ‘el-per-DN’ is measured using the photon transfer method. The sensor is illuminated at a light level ~1.5x the illumination at which the pixel output no longer linearly changes with illumination level. The Photodiode Charge Capacity is equal to the average signal (DN) ⋅ el-per-DN. Units: electrons rms.

17) Dark Field Faint Column/Row Defect

A 4 frame average, no illumination image is acquired at one line time of integration. Major defective pixels are removed (> 5 Sigma). All columns or rows are averaged together. The average of the local ROI of 128 columns or rows about the column/row being tested is determined. Any columns/rows greater than the local average by more than the threshold are identified.

18) Bright Field Faint Column/Row Defect

A 4 frame average, 70% illumination image is acquired at one line time of integration. Major defective pixels are removed (> 5 Sigma). All columns or rows are averaged together. The average of the local ROI of 128 columns or rows about the column/row being tested is determined. Any columns/rows greater than the local average by more than the threshold are identified.

19) Total Pixelized Noise

This test is performed with no illumination and one line of integration time. A single image is captured including both T emporal a n d F i x e d P attern Noise (FPN). A spatial low pass filter is applied to remove shading and deviant pixels (± three standard deviations) are removed. The Total Pixelized Noise is defined as one standard deviation of the frequency histogram.

20) Responsivity ke

/lux-sec

This number is calculated by integrating the multiplication of the sensor QE by the human photopic response assuming a 3200K light source with a QT100 IR filter. This is a sharp 650 nm cutoff filter. If the IR filter is removed a higher response value will result.

21) Responsivity V/lux-sec

Voltage levels are not output from the sensor. This metric uses the pixel output in volts at the ADC input for 1x Analog Gain.

This Datasheet presumes the recommended startup script that is defined in the KAC−12040 User Guide has been applied. The KAC−12040 defaults to Dual-Scan mode. In this mode the LVDS data readout overlaps the pixel readout and ADC conversion time. The Pixel and ADC conversion time are fixed (for 10 bit operation) and total ~8.66 ms. The LVDS time will be dependent on the PLL2 frequency selected. If the PLL2 < 313 MHz, then the LVDS data readout will dominate the row time. For PLL2 > 313 MHz, the Pixel + ADC will set the minimum Line Time. The Line Time is not impacted by the selection of Rolling Shutter or Global Shutter mode.

EOF

The KAC−12040 architecture always outputs two rows at once, one row from the top ADC, and one from the bottom ADC. Each ADC then divides up the pixel into 1 → 4 parallel pixel output LVDS Banks. The default is 4 output banks per ADC for a total of 8 parallel pixel outputs to minimize the LVDS data output time. Since the sensor always outputs 2 rows at a time the timing and registers are based on a Line Time (LT) or Line Length (LL) where one LT = the time to readout 2 rows in parallel (one even row and one odd row).

Frame Time

The frame time is defined in units of Line Time. 1 Line Time unit = 2 output rows. To first-order the frame rate is not directly impacted by selection of Global Shutter, Rolling Shutter, Dual-Scan, or Tri-Scan.

The Frame Time is made up of three phases:

)

By default the Integration Phase overlaps the Readout and Frame Wait Phases. If the Integration Phase is larger than the Readout + Fram e Wait time, then the Integration Phase will determine the video frame rate. Otherwise the frame rate will be set by the Readout + Frame Wait time. In other words, if the programmed integration time is larger than the minimum readout time (and vertical blanking) then extra vertical blanking will be added and the frame rate will slow to accommodate the requested integration time.

Integration of Next Frame Overlaps

Global Shutter Readout

Global Shutter readout provides the maximum precision for freezing scene motion. Any motion artifacts will be 100% defined by an ideal integration time edge. Every pixel in the array starts and stops integration at the same time.

Figure 17 illustrates a Global Shutter Frame readout assuming the recommended Start-up Script defined in the KAC−12040 User Guide (8 LVDS banks, Dual-Scan,

8.75 ms line time). The Frame W ait Phase is not shown due to its small default size (1 LL) and for clarity.

Global Shutter readout mode is selected using Bits [1:0]

of Register 01D1h.

Images can be initiated by setting and holding the TRIGGER input pin or by placing the sensor into RUNNING mode by writing 03d to register 4019h. If the TRIGGER input pin is true when at the start of the integration time for the next frame then the sensor will complete an additional frame integration and readout. In the case shown in Figure 17 two frames will be output.

Rolling Shutter Readout

The KAC−12040 high speed Rolling Shutter readout provides the maximum dynamic range while still providing excellent motion capture. In Rolling Shutter the readout more closely matches a film camera shutter. Each row of the image receives the same integration time, but each row starts and ends at a di fferent time as the shutter travels from the top

of the array to the bottom. In the Figure 18 frame time illustration this ‘moving shutter’ displays as a sloped edge for the blue pixel array region, just as the readout edge is sloped.

The number of output banks used is independent of the ADC bit depth chosen. By default the KAC−12040 uses all 8 output banks for maximum frame rate. If technical restrictions prevent the use of 8 LVDS banks, the sensor can be programmed to use 4 or 2 banks, however this can result in reduced frame rate and reduction of image quality. It is recommended that 8 banks be used when possible. Only the 8 bank option is discussed in detail in this specification, see the KAC−12040 User Guide for additional detail on 4 and 2 bank mode.

8 Bank Pixel Order

The KAC−12040 always processes two rows at a time. Even row decodes are sent to the bottom ADC and LVDS output banks (0, 2, 4, 6). Odd rows are sent to the top ADC and LVDS banks (1, 3, 5, 7). The ROI must be (and is internally forced to) an even size and always starting on an even row decode.

The rows are read out progressively left to right (small column address to large). Eight pixels are sent out of the chip at once, one pixel per LVDS bank per LVDS clock cycle.

Pixel Readout order:

1. Two rows are selected, the even row is sent to the bottom ADC and the odd row to the top ADC.

2. Each ADC converts its row of pixel data at once and stores the result in a line buffer.

3. At default settings there are 4 output LVDS banks for each ADC.

Bank 3 Bank 5 Bank 7

4. Each LVDS Bank outputs one pixel per clock cycle, so 4 pixels of each row are output each full LVDS clock cycle, two rows in parallel for 8 pixels per clock cycle total.

5. The pixels are sent out from left to right (low column number to high column number). So the first 4 pixels are sent out on clock cycle 1, and the next 4 pixels to the right are sent out on clock cycle 2.

6. To conserve the number of wires per port, the 10 bits per pixel are sent out DDR (Dual Data Rate) over 5 ports. On the falling edge the upper 5 MSB bits are sent out, and on the rising edge the lower 5 bits LSB are sent out. Completing one full LVDS clock cycle and one set of eight pixels.

Clock Polarity and Phase

CPOL (Clock POLarity) and CPHA (Clock PHAse) are commonly defined in SPI protocol such as to define SCK clock phase and polarity. The KAC−12040 defaults to

expecting the master to be configured with CPOL = 1 (the base value of the clock is VDD_DIG) and CPHA = 1 (data is valid on the clock rising edge).

Wait Time

1.5 ms

There is a delay during readback between presenting the address to be read on the MOSI and being able to read the register contents on the MISO. This delay is not the same for all registers. Some are available immediately, some require a longer fetch time. The 1.5 ms shown in Figure 15 is the maximum time to fetch a register’s value when in CONFIG state (the recommended state for changing registers). Some registers can be adjusted during RUNNING state (see the Register Summary on page 25). If performing a readback during RUNNING state, the delay could be as long as 4.5 ms depending on when in the row the request was sent and the sensor’s microcontroller activity at that moment.

Note that readback does not provide the actual register value being used, but reflects the next value to be used. All

new register writes are placed in a shadow memory until they can be updated into the active memory. This active memory update occurs at the start of the next frame or upon entering the state listed in the Register Summary table on page 25. Register reads access this shadow memory not the active memory. For instance if the sensor is in RUNNING mode and you adjust the LL in register 200h. You can read back and confirm that your register change was received by the sensor; however, the LL will not change since register 200h can only be changed in CONFIG state. If you change the sensor state to CONFIG and then back to RUNNING, then the new LL will take effect.

The data output can be configured to follow standard TIA/EIA−644−A LVDS specification or a low power mode compatible with common Sub-LVDS definition used in FPGA industry. (Please refer to the KAC−12040 User Guide for more information).

Unless otherwise noted, min/max characteristics are for T = −40°C to +85°C, output termination resistance

RL = 100 W ±1%, Typical values are at VDD_LVDS =

3.3 V. Use register 2449h to select standard or Sub-LVDS. This

document assumes that Sub-LVDS is active for all power measurements. Standard LVDS can increase the average power consumption as much as 200 mW in the case of minimum horizontal and vertical blanking.

Value Description

If the sampling window is too small the PLL2 can be reduced to increase the window (parameter C). Alternatively, the majority of the transition uncertainty is potential skew between the 7 data lines. Using de-skewing can remove 350 ps from the uncertainty window.
