A Digital Color Video Camera Using A Single-Chip Solid-STate Image Sensor

Recent progress in the field of digital ICs and LSIs has brought digital television/video circuitry almost a reality consumer applica-tions, but not quite. Although there have been several papers describing digital signal processing for consumer video cameras,1)2) there remains a number of problems to be soloved before making these cameras viable. Higher speed, higher accuracy and lower power consumption, for instance, are required for an ADC. The yield rate of image sensors are to be improved substantially.
