Description
The VS6724 is a UXGA resolution CMOS imaging device designed for low power systems,
particularly mobile phone applications.
Manufactured using ST 0.18 µm CMOS Imaging process, it integrates a high-sensitivity
pixel array, digital image processor and camera control functions.
The VS6724 is capable of streaming UXGA video up to 30 fps JPEG and up to 15 fps with
ITU-R BT.656-4 YCbCr 4:2:2 format. It supports 1.8 V or 2.8 V interface and requires a 2.4
to 3.0 V analog power supply. Typically, the VS6724 can operate as a 2.8 V single supply
camera or as a 1.8 V interface / 2.8 V supply camera. The integrated PLL allows for low
frequency system clock, and flexibility for successful EMC integration. An input clock is
required in the range 6.5 MHz to 27 MHz.
The VS6724 camera module uses ST’s second generation “SmOP2” packaging technology:
the sensor, lens and passives are assembled, tested and focused in a fully automated
process, allowing high volume and low cost production.
The device contains an embedded video processor and delivers fully color processed
images at up to 30 fps UXGA JPEG, or up to 30 fps SVGA YCbCr 4:2:2.
The video data is output over an 8-bit parallel bus in JPEG (4:2:2 or 4:2:0), RGB, YCbCr or
Bayer formats and the device is controlled via an I²C interface.
The VS6724 also includes a wide range of image enhancement functions, designed to
ensure high image quality, these include:
● Automatic exposure control
● Automatic white balance
● Lens shading compensation
● Defect correction algorithms
● Interpolation (Bayer to RGB conversion)
● Color space conversion
● Sharpening
● Gamma correction
● Flicker cancellation
● NoRA noise reduction algorithm
● Intelligent image scaling
● Special effects
