General Description
The Micron Imaging MT9V112 is a VGA-format, single-chip camera CMOS active-pixel digital image sensor. This device combines the MT9V012 image sensor core with fourth-generation digital image flow processor technology from Micron Imaging. It captures high-quality color images at VGA resolution.
The VGA CMOS image sensor features DigitalClarity—Micron’s breakthrough low-noise CMOS imaging technology that achieves CCD image quality (based on signal-to-noise ratio and low-light sensitivity) while maintaining the inherent size, cost, and integration advantages of CMOS.
