LM9833 48-Bit Color, 1200dpi USB Image Scanner
General Description
The LM9833 is a complete USB image scanner system on a sin-
gle IC. The LM9833 provides all the functions (image sensor
control, illumination control, analog front end, pixel processing
function image data buffer/DRAM controller, microstepping
motor controller, and USB interface) necessary to create a high
performance color scanner. The LM9833 scans images in 48 bit
color/16 bit gray, and has output data formats for 48 and 24bit
color/16 and 8 bit gray. The LM9833 supports sensors with pixel
counts of up to 16384 pixels x 3 colors (1200 dpi x 13.6 inches).
The LM9833’s low operating and suspend mode supply currents
allow design of USB bus-powered scanners. The only additional
active components required are an external 4Mbit or 16Mbit
DRAM for data buffering and power transistors for the stepper
motor.
Features
• 16 bit ADC digitizes at up to 6Mpixels/s (2M RGB pixels/sec).
• Digital Pixel Processing provides 1200, 800, 600, 400, 300,
200, 150, and 100dpi horizontal resolution from a 1200dpi
sensor and 600, 400, 300, 200, 150, 100, 75, and 50dpi
horizontal resolution from a 600dpi sensor.
• Provides 50-2400dpi vertical resolution in 1 dpi increments.
• Pixel rate error correction for gain (shading) and offset errors.
• Supports 4 or 16Mbit external DRAMs.
• Multiple CCD clocking rates allows matching of CCD clock to
scan resolution and pixel depth for maximum scan speed.
• Stepper motor control tightly coupled with image data buffer
management to maximize data transfer efficiency.
• PWM stepper motor current control allows microstepping for
the price of fullstepping.
• USB interface for Plug and Play operation on USB-equipped
computers.
• Serial EEPROM option for custom Vendor and Product IDs.
• Support for USB bus-powered operation.
• Pixel depths of 1, 2, or 4 bits are packed into bytes for faster
scans of line art and low pixel depth images.
• Supports 3 channel CCDs and 1 channel CIS sensors.
• 3 (R, G, and B) 12-bit, user-programmable gamma correction
tables.
• Compatible with a wide range of color linear CCDs and
Contact Image Sensors (CIS).
• Operates with 48MHz external crystal.
• Internal bandgap voltage reference.
• 100 pin TQFP package
