Abstract :
A digital signal processor has been developed for a video camera by using a 0.8-μm CMOS process. This LSI includes almost all the functions of a video camera. It also integrates a circuit for extending the dynamic range and a three-line color processing circuit to realize true-to-life color reproduction. Using this LSI, a compact and lightweight video camera with high picture quality has been realized
