mance for use with non-visible NIR illumination
Progressive or interlaced readout modes
2x2 and 4x4 binning at full 60 fps resolution
Global shutter photodiode pixels; simultaneous
integration and readout
Simple two-wire serial interface
On-chip, 10-bit analog to digital converter (ADC),
column-parallel with option to operate in 12-bit
to 10-bit companding mode
Support for four unique serial control register IDs
to control multiple imagers on the same bus
This wide VGA CMOS active-pixel digital image
sensor with global shutter also features DigitalClar-
ity, Micron’s breakthrough, low-noise CMOS imaging
technology that achieves CCD image quality
(based on signal-to-noise ratio and low-light sensi-
tivity) while maintaining the inherent size, cost, and
integration advantages of CMOS.
The MT9V032 also incorporates sophisticated
camera functions on-chip, such as 2x2 and 4x4
binning to improve sensitivity when operating
at smaller resolutions, as well as windowing, and
column and row mirroring. The device is program-
mable through a simple two-wire serial interface.
Micron’s MT9V032 CMOS image sensor provides
the best of both worlds: best-in-class performance
and low-cost video for home and commercial secu-
rity system applications—especially those that use
cameras in the uncontrolled lighting conditions of
real-world environments.

Wide Dynamic Range Imager
The focus for security cameras has shifted from low
light sensitivity to wide dynamic range. The ability to
adjust for the high contrast of both light and dark in
the same frame is particularly important for cameras
that operate in uncontrolled lighting conditions.
Micron’s 1/3-inch wide VGA CMOS image sensor with
100dB dynamic range enables cameras to capture
scenes containing both low light levels (down to sub-
0.1 lux) and direct sunlight for clear identification of
scenes and stills on e-mail or through remote viewing.
With its broad temperature range and enhanced
near infrared sensititivity, the MT9V032
performs superbly under low-light con-
ditions and in extremely low to very high temper-
ature. The MT9V032 functions brilliantly at –30°C
to +70°C, while its sister part, the MT9V022,
operates within an even wider, –40°C to +85°C
temperature range. Both devices can withstand
storage temperatures up to +125°C.
