5. General Description
The Avocet image sensor integrates a high-sensitivity array, a feature-rich digital processor for monochrome
images and camera control functions into a single chip.
In a monochrome system, image processing is performed on the Avocet as a single chip solution.
In a color system Avocet acts as a slave in a system controlled by a separate Image Signal Processor chip
through one of the external interfaces delivering raw single images or video-like streams of color Bayer-patterned
images. The sensor captures the images at the required speed, exposure, and gain, and the external device is
responsible for all further image processing such as color demosaicing and white balance.
