The ON Semiconductor AR0238 can be operated in its Optional register information and histogram statistic default mode or programmed for frame size, exposure, gain, information can be embedded in the first and last 2 lines of and other parameters. The default mode output is a 1080p the image frame. resolution image at 60 frames per second (fps) through the The AR0238 is designed to operate over a wide HiSPi port. In linear mode, it outputs 12bit or 10bit temperature range of 30C to +85C junction. ALaw compressed raw data, using the parallel or serial FUNCTIONAL OVERVIEW (HiSPi) output port. In high dynamic range mode, it outputs The AR0238 is a progressivescan sensor that generates two exposure values that the ISP will combine into an HDR a stream of pixel data at a constant frame rate. It uses an image. The device may be operated in video (master) mode onchip, phaselocked loop (PLL) that can be optionally or in single frame trigger mode. enabled to generate all internal clocks from a single master FRAME VALID and LINE VALID signals are output on input clock running between 6 and 48 MHz. The maximum dedicated pins, along with a synchronized pixel clock in output pixel rate is 148.5 Mp/s, corresponding to a clock rate parallel mode. of 74.25 MHz.
