2. What data formats does the GC4663 support?

A: The GC4663 supports RAW12 and RAW10 data formats with MIPI interfaces, which provide high flexibility and data processing capabilities.

3. What are the power requirements of the GC4663?

A: The power requirements of the GC4663 include:

AVDD28: 2.7~2.9V (typical value is 2.8V) for analog voltage.

DVDD: 1.15~1.25V (typical value is 1.2V) for digital voltage.

IOVDD: 1.7~1.9V (typical value is 1.8V) for input and output voltage.

4. How to adjust the output frame rate of the GC4663?

A: Adjusting the output frame rate of the GC4663 usually involves modifying the settings of the frame time (VTS) and line time (line_time). The specific steps include:

Determine the target frame rate (such as dropping from 30fps to 20fps).

Calculate the pclk value using the formula pclk = frame_length * line_length * fps.

Calculate the new frame time (VTS) based on the pclk value and the known line time (line_time) or line length (line_length).

Modify the VTS value in the sensor settings to achieve the target frame rate.

5. How does the GC4663 perform in high and low temperature environments?

A: The GC4663 operates over a wide temperature range of -20°C to 80°C with stable performance. However, at extreme temperatures, the performance of the sensor may be affected to a certain extent, such as increased dark current and reduced sensitivity.

6. Does the GC4663 support HDR function?

A: Yes, GC4663 supports HDR function with interleaved output mode, which allows users to combine two different exposure time frames into one picture to improve dynamic range and avoid tailing.

7. How to solve the noise problem of GC4663 image sensor?

A: Noise problem can be caused by many factors, such as excessive temperature, underexposure or improper sensor gain setting. Solutions include:

Lower sensor temperature, such as adding heat dissipation measures.

Adjust exposure time and gain settings to optimize image quality.
