| AMIS-720649: Contact Image Sensor Data Sheet 1.0 General Description AMI Semiconductor's AMIS-720649 (PI6049A) contact image sensor (CIS) is a 600 dots per inch (dpi) resolution linear image sensor, which employs AMI Semiconductor's proprietary CMOS image sensing technology. The sensor contains an on-chip output amplifier, power down circuitry and parallel transfer features that are uniquely combined with present-day active-pixel-sensor technology. The image sensors are designed to be cascaded end-to-end on a printed circuit board (PCB) and packaged in an image sensing module. Applications for the sensor array include facsimiles, PC scanners, check readers, and office automation equipment. Figure 1 is a block diagram of the sensor. Each sensor consists of 344 active pixels, their associated multiplexing switches, buffers and an output amplifier circuit with a power-down feature. The detector's element-to-element spacing is approximately 42.3m. The size of each sensor without the scribe lines is 14560m by 380m. 2.0 Block Diagram 14560m 42.3m 1 2 3 4 Row of 344 Pixels and Video Line Multiplexer 341 342 343 344 Parallel Transfer, Storage Cells and Readout Registers 380m Amplifier, PowerDown and Offset Control GBST SI SIC CLK AVDD DVDD AVSS DVSS VOUT OR OS VR SO Figure 1: Sensor Block Diagram AMI Semiconductor - Dec. 05, M-20488-001 www.amis.com 1 AMIS-720649: Contact Image Sensor 3.0 Key Features * * * * * * * * * * * * 600dpi 344 image sensor elements (pixels) 42.3m pixel center-to-center spacing (23.62dots/mm) On-chip amplifier Single 5.0V power supply 5.0V input clocks 2.5MHz maximum pixel rate Parallel / integrate and transfer Power-down circuit High sensitivity Low power Low noise Data Sheet 4.0 Unique Features There are five unique features incorporated in the AMIS-720649 which improve the sensor's performance. 4.1 Pixel-to-Pixel Offset Cancellation Circuit The sensor employs a pixel-to-pixel offset cancellation circuit, which reduces the fix pattern noise (FPN), and amplifier offsets. In addition, this innovative circuit design greatly improves the optical linearity and low noise sensitivity. 4.2 Parallel Integrate, Transfer and Hold The sensor has a parallel integrate, transfer and hold feature, which allows the sensor to be read out while photon integration is taking place. These features are approached through the use of an integrate and hold cell, located at each pixel site. Each pixel's charge is read from its storage site as the sensor's shift register sequentially transfers each pixel's charge onto a common video line. 4.3 Dual Scan Initiation Inputs, GBST and SI Each sensor has two scan initiation inputs, the global start pulse (GBST) and the start pulse (SI). These clocks help to reduce the sensor-to-sensor transition fix pattern noise by initializing and preprocessing all sensors simultaneously before they start their readout scan. The internal shift register starts the scan after GBST is clocked in on the falling edge of the clock input (CLK). The start input control (SIC) selects the first sensor in a sequence of cascaded sensors to operate with 29 clock cycles of delay by connecting it to Vdd on the first sensor, and to ground for all subsequent sensors. Then, only the first sensor clocks out 29 inactive pixels before accessing its first active pixel. During these 29 clock cycles, the first sensor and all of the subsequent cascaded sensors cycle through their pre-scan initialization process. After initialization, only the first sensor starts its read cycle with its first-active pixel appearing on the 30th clock cycle. The second and subsequent sensors await the entry of their SI. Furthermore, the first sensor's SI is left unconnected, while the subsequent sensors all have their SI's connected to the end-of-scan (SO) of their respective preceding sensor. The external scan SI is connected to all of the sensors' GBST inputs. As the first sensor completes its scan, its SO, appears one pixel before its last pixel. The second and subsequent sensors will then start their registers one clock cycle before the appearance of their respective first pixels, and their SO also appears one pixel before their last pixel.

The SIC on each sensor selects a unique feature of powering up a particular sensor's output amplifier when it's selected and powering it down when not selected. For the AMIS-720649, only the first sensors' amplifier is used and all subsequent sensors have their amplifiers turned off. The pixels from each sensor are transferred onto a common video line which is connected to the amplifier of the first sensor. The advantage of using only one active amplifier is two-fold; saving on power consumption and reducing sensor-to-sensor FPN. 4.5 Common Reference Voltage Between Cascaded Sensors Each sensor has an input/output bias control (VR), which serves as an offset voltage reference. Each bias control pad is connected to an internal bias source and tied to its own amplifier's reference bias input. In operation, these pads on every sensor are connected together. Each sensor then "shares" the same bias level to maintain a constant bias among all of the sensors. 5.0 Functional Description 5.1 Input / Output Terminals The AMIS-720649 image sensor has 13 input and output (I/O) pads. Their symbols and function descriptions are listed in Table 1.

AMI Semiconductor - Dec. 05, M-20488-001 www.amis.com 5 AMIS-720649: Contact Image Sensor 6.1 Definitions of Electro-Optical Specifications Data Sheet All electrical specifications are measured at a pixel rate of 2.0MHz, a temperature of 25 C, Vdd = 5.0V, and at an integration time of 2.2ms. The average output voltage (Vpavg), is adjusted to approximately 1.0V, unless stated otherwise. The modules' internal green LED (525 20nm) was used as the light source for measurements requiring illumination. As a guideline, the recommended load on the output should be 1K Sensitivity (Sv) is defined as the slope of the Vpavg vs. Exposure curve. Saturation voltage (VSat) is defined as the maximum video output voltage swing measured from the dark level to the saturation level. It is measured by using the module LED light source with the module imaging a uniform white target. The LED light level is increased until the output voltage no longer increases with an increase in the LED brightness. The dark level is set by the voltage on VR and in a typical CIS module application, sits at approximately 0.7V. Photo-response non-uniformity (Up): Up = ((Vpmax-Vpavg)/Vpavg) x 100% or ((Vpavg-Vpmin)/Vpavg) x 100%, whichever is the greater, where Vpmax is the maximum pixel output voltage in the light, Vpmin is the minimum pixel output voltage in the light and Vpavg is average output voltage of all pixels in the light. Adjacent photo-response non-uniformity (Upn): Upn = Max ((Vpn - Vpn+1) / Min (Vpn, Vpn+1)) x 100%, where Vpn is the pixel output voltage of pixel n in the light. Dark output voltage (Vd): Vd is the average dark output level and is essentially the offset level of the video output in the dark. The dark level is set by the voltage on VR and in a typical CIS module application, sits at approximately 0.7V. Dark output non-uniformity (Ud): Ud = Vdmax-Vdmin, where Vdmax is the maximum pixel output voltage in the dark and Vdmin is the minimum pixel output voltage in the dark. Random thermal noise (rms), (Vno), is the standard deviation of n pixels in the dark. A sample size n= 64 was used. A 4mV rms value has a peak-peak equivalent of 24mV. Sensor-to-sensor photo-response non-uniformity (Usensor): Usensor = (Vpavg - Wavg) / Wavg), where Wavg is the average output of all sensors on the same wafer that pass all other specifications. Photo-response linearity (PRL): Photo-response linearity is defined as the max deviation of response compared to a best fit line. The data points plotted are those that lie within ten percent of the saturation level and ninety percent of the saturation level. Outside these ranges the module is operating close to non-linearity. 7.0 Recommended Operating Conditions Table 3 lists the recommended operating conditions @ 25C.

The dark level is set by the voltage on the VR input pad, which is internally set to a typical value of 0.7V. Alternatively, if the user wishes to use a dark level greater than this, then VR can be supplied externally. Although the device will operate with a pixel rate of less than 500kHz, it is recommended that the device be operated above 500kHz to maintain performance characteristics. Operating below 500kHz may result in a significant integration of dark current. Tint is the integration time of a single sensor and is the time between two start pulses. The minimum integration time is the time it takes to clock out 29 inactive pixels and 344 active pixels. If several sensors are cascaded together in a module then the minimum integration time is the time it takes to clock out 29 inactive pixels and 344 active pixels from the first sensor and 344 pixels from each of all subsequent sensors, at a given frequency. The clock duty cycle is defined as the ratio of the positive duration of the clock to its period.

This would occur if the GBST remains high during two fallings edges of the CLK signal. SI starts the register scanning and the first active pixel is read out on the 30th clock cycle of the CLK signal. However, when multiple sensors are sequentially scanned, as in CIS modules, the SO from the predecessor sensor becomes the SI to the subsequent sensor, hence the SI clock = the SO clock. As discussed under the third unique feature, the GBST starts the initialization process and preprocesses all sensors simultaneously in the first 29 clock cycles (29 pixels) before the first pixel is scanned onto the video line from the first sensor. The transition between pixels does not always reach the dark offset level as shown in Figure 4 (Vout). Figure 4 shows the transition doing so for illustration purposes; however a stable pixel sampling point does exist for every pixel. The pixel rise time is defined as the time from when the CLK's rising edge has reached 50 percent of its maximum amplitude to the point when a pixel has reached 90 percent of its maximum amplitude. The pixel fall time is defined as the time from when a pixel's charge begins to decrease from its maximum amplitude to within 10 percent of the lowest point before the next pixel begins to rise. AMI Semiconductor - Dec. 05, M-20488-001 www.amis.com 7 AMIS-720649: Contact Image Sensor Data Sheet Figure 4 shows the initialization of the first sensor in relation to its subsequent cascaded sensors. The SIC selects the first sensor to operate with 29 clock cycles of delay by connecting it to Vdd on the first sensor and to ground for all subsequent sensors. Hence the first sensor will operate with 29 inactive pixels being clocked out before its first active pixel is clocked out. The rise and fall times are th listed in Table 5. The SO comes out in line with the second last active pixel, and the last active pixel of each sensor is the 344 pixel which coincides with the 344th clock cycle.
