the world's first 1/4-inch 5 megapixel SOC image sensor
with OmniBSI™ technology
The OV5642 is the world's first 1/4-inch, 5 megapixel
SOC CameraChip™ sensor featuring OmniVision's most
advanced 1.4 micron OmniBSI backside illumination
architecture and TrueFocus™ ISP. It provides the full
functionality of a complete camera on a single chip,
including anti-shake technology, auto focus control,
MIPI and high definition support (720p and 1080p).
The OV5642 delivers best-in-class streaming video and
photography for camera phone applications, creating the
ultimate imaging experience.
The low-voltage OV5642 provides full-frame,
sub-sampled, windowed or scaled 8-bit/10-bit images in
various formats over a serial camera control bus (SCCB)
interface or high speed MIPI interface. It operates at up
to 15 frames per second (fps) in full resolution with full
user control over image quality, format and image data
output transfer. An integrated JPEG compression engine
simplifies data transfer for bandwidth limited interfaces.
The OV5642 features an embedded microcontroller to
support an internal auto focus engine, a programmable
general purpose I/O for external auto focus control, and
an internal anti-shake engine for image stabilization. It
uses proprietary sensor technology to improve image
quality by reducing or eliminating common lighting and/
or electrical sources of image contamination to produce
a clean, fully stable, color image. All required image
processing functions, including exposure control, white
balance, defective pixel canceling and noise cancelling
are programmable through the SCCB interface, MIPI
interface or the integrated microcontroller.
The OV5642 offers bridging and daisy chain support,
which allows secondary cameras to share the use of its
TrueFocus ISP via the DVP, while providing continued
output through the MIPI interface
