Chrontel CH5001A
The CH5001 is a single chip active pixel CMOS color video camera with digital video output in several formats. The CH5001 uses a proprietary autoshutter algorithm to dynamically control the shutter time, analog gain, and black clamp level, providing optimum picture and contrast under all lighting conditions. The CH5001 also incorporates extensive on-chip programmable digital signal processing to maximize the usefulness of the device in processor driven applications.| Part No. | CH5001A |

DESCRIPTION
Using sophisticated noise correction circuitry to minimize fixed pattern noise and dark current effects, the CH5001 provides a supurb quality picture in a low cost device. This includes 16 programmable zones for backlight compensation, allowing the user to adjust the image to their unique lighting environment. Additionally, at power-up the backlight compensation zone, power-up condition, and direct A/D output modes are selectable without IIC control by using the PUD pins. Requiring a minimum of parts for operation, the CH5001 provides a low cost camera for the next generation video conferencing, videophone, and surveillance products.
