MT9V022_DS - Rev. C 9/10 EN
The color version of the MT9V032 does not support or offers reduced performance for
the following functionalities.
Pixel binning is done on immediate neighbor pixels only; no facility is provided to skip
pixels according to a Bayer pattern. Therefore, the result of binning combines pixels of
different colors. For more information, see “Pixel Binning” on page 53.
Interlaced readout yields one field consisting only of red and green pixels and another
consisting only of blue and green pixels. This is due to the Bayer pattern of the CFA.
When the color bit is set (R0x0F[2]=1), the sensor uses GREEN1 pixels black level correc-
tion value, which is applied to all colors. To use calibration value based on all dark pixels
offset values, the color bit should be cleared.
Black level correction and row-wise noise correction are applied uniformly to each color.
Automatic exposure and gain control calculations are made based on all three colors,
not just the green luma channel. High dynamic range does operate; however, Aptina
strongly recommends limiting use to linear operation if good color fidelity is required.
