Functional Description

3.1

Video processor (VP)

The VP is the result of STMicroelectronics extensive know-how and hard work around the colour

science for CMOS sensor. The VP block fulfills many functions related to colour reconstruction from

a bayer filter, colour matrixing and sharpening, real-time and programmable defect pixel correction,

AGC, AWB, Anti flicker and Gamma correction, scaling from the sensor to the required video and

LCD panel resolution. This new video processor benefits from STMicroelectronics latest algorithms

development such as the patented Noise Reduction Algorithm and anti-vignetting that ensures the

highest quality standard.

The VP combines hardware and firmware. The main block controller is powered by a 8051 E WARP

microcontroller, with RAM based firmware for the highest level of flexibility.
