The Micron Imaging MT9M001 is an SXGA-format with a 1/2-inch CMOS active-pixel digital image sensor. The active imaging pixel array of 1,280H x 1,024V. It incorporates sophisticated camera functions on-chip such as windowing, column and row skip mode, and snapshot mode. It is programmable through a simple two-wire serial interface.

This megapixel CMOS image sensor features Digital- Clarity—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.

Table 1: Key Performance Parameters

The sensor can be operated in its default mode or programmed by the user for frame size, exposure, gain setting, and other parameters. The default mode outputs an SXGA-size image at 30 frames per second (fps). An on-chip analog-to-digital converter (ADC) provides 10 bits per pixel. FRAME_VALID and LINE_VALID signals are output on dedicated pins, along with a pixel clock that is synchronous with valid data.

The biggest advantage of a CMOS area array sensor is that it is less expensive than a CCD sensor. A miniature spectrometer use an area array CMOS sensor MT9M001C12STM as detector was developed. The prototype uses an asymmetric cross Czerny-Turner optical structure. Its photometric accuracy and linearity were investigated, and the photometric deviation arise from stray light was analyzed. The elementary performance was tested as follows: wavelength range 380~800 nm, the integration time can be selected from 1 ms to 500 ms according to the light intensity, spectral bandwidth 6 nm , wavelength accuracy ±1 nm, photometric accuracy ±0.03 AU. Results showed that after calibration and nonlinear correction, this CMOS spectrometer is capable for routine fast analysis.
