MT9M021/MT9M031: 1/3-Inch CMOS Digital Image Sensor
General Description
General Description
The ON Semiconductor MT9M021/MT9M031 can be operated in its default mode or
programmed for frame size, exposure, gain, and other parameters. The default mode
output is a full-resolution image at 45 frames per second (fps). It outputs 12-bit raw data,
using either the parallel or serial (HiSPi) output ports. The device may be operated in
video (master) mode or in frame trigger mode.
FRAME_VALID and LINE_VALID signals are output on dedicated pins, along with a
synchronized pixel clock. A dedicated FLASH pin can be programmed to control
external LED or flash exposure illumination.
The MT9M021/MT9M031 includes additional features to allow application-specific
tuning: windowing, adjustable auto-exposure control, auto black level correction,
on-board temperature sensor, and row skip and digital binning modes.
The sensor is designed to operate in a wide temperature range (–30°C to +70°C).
Functional Overview
The MT9M021/MT9M031 is a progressive-scan sensor that generates a stream of pixel
data at a constant frame rate. It uses an on-chip, phase-locked loop (PLL) that can be
optionally enabled to generate all internal clocks from a single master input clock
running between 6 and 50 MHz. The maximum output pixel rate is 74.25 Mp/s, corre-
sponding to a clock rate of 74.25 MHz. Figure 1 shows a block diagram of the sensor.
Figure 1: Block Diagram
User interaction with the sensor is through the two-wire serial bus, which communi-
cates with the array control, analog signal chain, and digital signal chain. The core of the
sensor is a 1.2 Mp Active- Pixel Sensor array. The MT9M021/MT9M031 features global
shutter technology for accurate capture of moving images. The exposure of the entire
array is controlled by programming the integration time by register setting. All rows
simultaneously integrate light prior to readout. Once a row has been read, the data from
the columns is sequenced through an analog signal chain (providing offset correction
and gain), and then through an analog-to- digital converter (ADC). The output from the
ADC is a 12-bit value for each pixel in the array. The ADC output passes through a digital

Features Overview
processing signal chain (which provides further data path corrections and applies digital
gain). The pixel data are output at a rate of up to 74.25 Mp/s, in parallel to frame and line
synchronization signals.
Features Overview
The MT9M021/MT9M031 Global Sensor shutter has a wide array of features to enhance
functionality and to increase versatility. A summary of features follows. Please refer to
the MT9M021/MT9M031 Developer Guide for detailed feature descriptions, register
settings, and tuning guidelines and recommendations.
•Operating Modes
The MT9M021/MT9M031 works in master (video), trigger (single frame), or Auto Trig-
ger modes. In master mode, the sensor generates the integration and readout timing.
In trigger mode, it accepts an external trigger to start exposure, then generates the
exposure and readout timing. The exposure time is programmed through the two-
wire serial interface for both modes.
Note: Trigger mode is not compatible with the HiSPi interface.
•Window Control
Configurable window size and blanking times allow a wide range of resolutions and
frame rates. Digital binning and skipping modes are supported, as are vertical and
horizontal mirror operations.
•Context Switching
Context switching may be used to rapidly switch between two sets of register values.
Refer to the MT9M021/MT9M031 Developer Guide for a complete set of context
switchable registers.
•Gain
The MT9M021/MT9M031 Global Shutter sensor can be configured for analog gain of
up to 8x, and digital gain of up to 8x.
•Automatic Exposure Control
The integrated automatic exposure control may be used to ensure optimal settings of
exposure and gain are computed and updated every other frame. Refer to the
MT9M021/MT9M031 Developer Guide for more details.
•HiSPi
The MT9M021/MT9M031 Global Shutter image sensor supports two or three lanes of
Streaming-SP or Packetized-SP protocols of ON Semiconductor's High-Speed Serial
Pixel Interface.
•PLL
An on chip PLL provides reference clock flexibility and supports spread spectrum
sources for improved EMI performance.
•Reset
The MT9M021/MT9M031 may be reset by a register write, or by a dedicated input pin.
•Output Enable
The MT9M021/MT9M031 output pins may be tri-stated using a dedicated output
enable pin.
•Temperature Sensor
Black Level Correction
•Row Noise Correction
Column Correction
Test Patterns
Several test patterns may be enabled for debug purposes. These include a solid color,
color bar, fade to grey, and a walking 1s test pattern.

MT9M021/MT9M031: 1/3-Inch CMOS Digital Image Sensor
Features Overview
Figure 2: Typical Configuration: Serial Four-Lane HiSPi Interface
Notes: 1. All power supplies must be adequately decoupled.
2. ON Semiconductor recommends a resistor value of 1.5k, but it may be greater for slower two-wire
speed.
3. This pull-up resistor is not required if the controller drives a valid logic level on SCLK at all times.
4. The parallel interface output pads can be left unconnected if the serial output interface is used.
5. ON Semiconductor recommends that 0.1μF and 10μF decoupling capacitors for each power supply
are mounted as close as possible to the pad. Actual values and results may vary depending on lay-
out and design considerations. Refer to the MT9M021/MT9M031 demo headboard schematics for
circuit recommendations.
6. ON Semiconductor recommends that analog power planes be placed in a manner such that cou-
pling with the digital power planes is minimized.
7. Although 4 serial lanes are shown, the MT9M021/MT9M031 supports only 2 or 3 lane HiSPi.

MT9M021/MT9M031: 1/3-Inch CMOS Digital Image Sensor
Electrical Specifications
Notes: 1. This table is based on I2C standard (v2.1 January 2000). Philips Semiconductor.
2. Two-wire control is I2C-compatible.
3. All values referred to VIHmin = 0.9 VDD and VILmax = 0.1VDD levels. Sensor EXCLK = 27 MHz.
4. A device must internally provide a hold time of at least 300 ns for the SDATA signal to bridge the
undefined region of the falling edge of SCLK.
5. The maximum tHD;DAT has only to be met if the device does not stretch the LOW period (tLOW) of
the SCLK signal.
6. A Fast-mode I2C-bus device can be used in a Standard-mode I2C-bus system, but the requirement
tSU;DAT 250 ns must then be met. This will automatically be the case if the device does not stretch
the LOW period of the SCLK signal. If such a device does stretch the LOW period of the SCLK signal, it
must output the next data bit to the SDATA line tr max + tSU;DAT = 1000 + 250 = 1250 ns (according
to the Standard-mode I2C-bus specification) before the SCLK line is released.
7. Cb = total capacitance of one bus line in pF.

I/O Timing
By default, the MT9M021/MT9M031 launches pixel data, FV and LV with the falling edge
of PIXCLK. The expectation is that the user captures DOUT[11:0], FV and LV using the
rising edge of PIXCLK. The launch edge of PIXCLK can be configured in register R0x3028.

clock.
2. Taken from 0V crossing point w/ DLL off.
3. Also defined with a maximum loading capacitance of 10pF on any pin. The loading capacitance
may also need to be less for higher bitrates so the rise and fall times do not exceed the maximum
0.3UI.
4. The absolute mean skew between the Clock lane and any Data Lane in the same PHY between any
edges.
5. The absolute mean skew between any Clock in one PHY and any Data lane in any other PHY
between any edges.
6. Differential skew is defined as the skew between complementary outputs. It is measured as the
absolute time between the two complementary edges at mean VCM point.

Power-Up Sequence
The recommended power-up sequence for the MT9M021/MT9M031 is shown in
Figure 11. The available power supplies (VDD_IO, VDD, VDD_SLVS, VDD_PLL, VAA,
VAA_PIX) must have the separation specified below.
1. Turn on VDD_PLL power supply.
2. After 0–10s, turn on VAA and VAA_PIX power supply.
3. After 0–10s, turn on VDD_IO power supply.
4. After the last power supply is stable, enable EXTCLK.
5. Assert RESET_BAR for at least 1ms.
6. Wait 150000 EXTCLKs (for internal initialization into software standby.
7. Configure PLL, output, and image settings to desired values.
8. Wait 1ms for the PLL to lock.
9. Set streaming mode (R0x301a[2] = 1).
Figure 11: Power Up
Notes: 1. Xtal settling time is component-dependent, usually taking about 10 – 100 ms.
2. Hard reset time is the minimum time required after power rails are settled. In a circuit where hard
reset is held down by RC circuit, then the RC time must include the all power rail settle time and
Xtal settle time.
3. It is critical that VDD_PLL is not powered up after the other power supplies. It must be powered
before or at least at the same time as the others. If the case happens that VDD_PLL is powered after
