General Description
ICM-109T is a single-chip digital color-imaging device. It incorporates a 1600x1200 sensor array capable
of operating at up to 20 frames per second and sub-sampled quarter (1/4) and quarter-quarter (1/16)
resolutions, operating at higher frame rate in progressive manner. Each pixel is covered by a color filter,
which formed a so-called Bayer pattern. Correlated double sampling is performed by the internal ADC and
timing circuitry. The gains for raw data can be adjusted separately for the 4 Bayer pattern pixels. The
output format is 10-bit raw data that can be fed to other DSP, color processing, or compression chips.
Applications
· Digital camcorder
· Digital still camera
· Video phone
· Video conferencing
· Video mail
· Video cellular phone
· PC camera
· Security system
· Visual toy
· Industrial image capture/analysis
· Environment monitor system
Key Parameters
· Number of pixels: 1600x1200
· Number of physical pixels: 1,948,100; (1610x1210)
· Frame rate: 20/10/7/3.5/3/2/1.5/0.7 fps
· Sub-sampling quarter (1/4) and quarter-quarter (1/16) resolutions for higher frame rate

1. Functional Description
ICM-109T is a single-chip digital color imaging device. It includes a 1600x1200 sensor array, 1600
column-level ADC, and correlated double sampling circuitry. All the programmable parameters are set by
writing into the SIF interface which can address the register file consisting of 8-bit registers. The output
format is 10-bit raw data, together with horizontal and vertical sync signals.
