Abstract

Provided is an interface device which can handle a variety of different image sensors for each manufacturing company and product model in an image processing system including an image sensor and an image processor.The system comprises the image sensor for photographing an image, the image processor which performs processing for outputting the photographed image as image data, and a sensor interface connected between the image sensor and the image processor. Further, the sensor interface comprises a sensor type register which stores information about the image sensor, a microcomputer which writes the information about the image sensor in the sensor type register and controls the image sensor, and a sensor signal processing section which receives an output signal from the image sensor, converts, according to the information stored in the sensor type register, the output signal suitably for an input of the image processor connected to an output end, and transmits the converted signal to the image processor.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an interface device connected between an image processor and an image sensor and a method for interfacing the same, and in particular, to a method for converting the output signal of the image sensor into The image processing data processed by the image processor does not need to change the interface device and interface method of the design of the image processor such as a digital camera according to the output signal of the image sensor, thereby reducing the output signal according to the image sensor output signal, it takes time and high cost to redesign the image processor in a different way, where the image sensors differ from each other depending on the manufacturer and product model. Background technique [0002] Generally, a device or system including an image processing system, such as a digital camera, obtains analog image data from an image sensed by an image sensor through a lens, converts the analog image d...
