Abstract :
A miniature mobile imaging module combines a 0.5 /spl mu/m CMOS CIF imager with a 0.18 /spl mu/m co-processor within a compact lensed package. It provides 15 frames/s ITU-Rec.656 data with 50 mW consumption. Automatic flicker-detection is one of the features that help the camera function in a mobile application.
