OV9712
CMOS WXGA (1 megapixel) HD Sensor with OmniPixel3-HS Technology
The low-power OV9712 image sensor is a high-performance HD video camera providing WXGA (1280 x 800) resolution with high sensitivity.

The 1/4-inch, 1 megapixel OV9712 meets all camera phone and PC multimedia market requirements in terms of performance, quality and reliability. Using OmniPixel3-HS™ technology, the OV9712 excels in low light conditions and can operate within a wide temperature range (-30º C to +70º C).

The OV9712 provides full-frame, sub-sampled, windowed 8-bit/10-bit images in raw RGB format via the digital video port (DVP).

The OV9712 incorporates a 1280 x 800 image array, capable of delivering HD video at 30 frames per second (fps) in WXGA or 720p HD format with complete user control over image quality, formatting and output data transfer.

The OV9712 possesses camera processing functions including exposure control, gain control, white balance, lens correction, defect pixel canceling and more. These functions are also programmable through the serial camera control bus (SCCB) interface.
