Description
– General purpose input/outputs (GPIOs) for
controlling external actuators
The STV0986 is an ultra low power megapixel
digital image processor designed to fit into mobile
applications. The STV0986 contains advanced
image correction, noise reduction techniques and
a smooth digital zoom facility, resulting in
exceptional image quality in today’s multi-
megapixel images. The STV0986 supports 2
SMIA sensors, flashgun (LED or Xenon), auto-
focus and programmable general purpose IOs for
additional external actuators. The internal buffer
and versatile clock manager within the STV0986
accommodates a wide range of data-rates
between the sensors, the STV0986 and the host.
■ 2 video pipes for full frame-rate concurrent
viewfinder and video/still capture. Single shot
(e.g. flashgun) thumbnail generation
– Gamma correction programmable for both
CRT and LCD displays
– Color correction matrix
– Digital zoom: Smooth 16X downscale
capability with up-scale capability to 4X
■ Output formats: JPEG, YUV4:2:2, YUV4:2:0,
Planar YUV4:2:0 (up to CIF), RGB888,
RGB565, RGB444
■ 4:2:0 JPEG compression with programmable
quantization matrix and target file size
