LC898212XA

Ordering number : ENA2118A LC898212XA CMOS LSI AF Control LSI Overview The AF control device, LC898212XA (LC898212XA-MH), provides an ideal way to implement the reduced power consumption and the improved autofocus precision and speed (reduced convergence time) required in high-pixelcount camera modules for use in smartphones. The LC898212XA integrates on a single chip an equalizer circuit employing digital calculation, and it can be combined with position sensors to build a closed-loop actuator control system. Since closed-loop control provides better ability to maintain the control object than conventional open-loop systems and is not affected by position differences, the LC898212XA is ideal for use in AF systems used in a wide variety of cameras. A closed-loop system uses position sensors for position control, and power consumption is lower than with conventional open-loop control, which uses current values for position control. In addition, a new PWM drive system employed suppresses noise that could affect image quality while achieving reduced power consumption, making this IC ideal for use in mobile devices such as smartphones. The filter coefficients of the equalizer circuit can be adjusted to any values desired by making register settings via I2C communication. This makes it possible to build a control circuit optimized to the various types of actuators and thereby achieve faster autofocus (reduced convergence time) performance. The integrated ADC provides up to 10-b...
