OV7670 640x480 VGA CMOS Camera Image Sensor by KitsGuru

The OV7670 is a low cost image sensor, DSP that can operate at a maximum of 30 fps and 640 x 480 ("VGA") resolutions, equivalent to 0.3 Megapixels. The captured image can be pre-processed by the DSP before sending it out. This preprocessing can be configured via the Serial Camera Control Bus (SCCB).OV7670 image sensor, small size, low voltage, providing single-chip VGA camera and image processor for all functions. Through the SCCB bus control, you can output the entire frame, sub-sampling window, etc. all take the resolution of 8 bits of data. The product images up to VGA 30 frames / sec. Users can fully control the image quality, data format and transmission. Process all image processing functions including gamma curves, white balance, saturation, color and so can SCCB interface programming. OmmiVision unique image sensor technology, sensor applications, by reducing or eliminating the optical or electrical defects such as fixed pattern noise, prop tail, floating powder, which enhances image quality, get a clear and stable color image.
