1 General description
Dragster is a platform of digital line-scan sensors. The sensor family is made using three types of basic elements: A single line element from 2K to 8K pixel resolution (7 μm pixel size and pitch), a dual line element from 2K to 8K pixel resolution (7 μm pixel size and pitch) and a single line element from 4K to 16K pixel resolution (3.5 μm (H) x 3.5 μm (V) pixel size). The chip versions with dual line are optionally available with Bayer Pattern RGB filters placed on the sensors. The sensor features a low noise pixel with true CDS and global shutter for interleaved readout and integration operation. Each pixel has an on pixel 13-bit ADC and its gain can be programmed in a range of -6 dB till +20 dB by means of an 8-bit DAC controlled over the serial configuration interface. The readout is made by two 13-bit wide digital taps organized in odd/even order for each 2K segment. For each line segment, 2K (7 μm pixel) or 4K (3.5 μm pixel), all pixels are read out. For sensor versions with 3.5 μm pixel pitch, two 2K segment readout circuits are placed on each side of the pixel line, to lead to a basic segment of 4K pixels, where even pixels are read out over the bottom readout and odd pixels are read out over the top readout. Start and end of integration, as well as optional start of readout, are started upon individual external trigger events. To enhance dynamic range multiple non-destructive readouts are possible.

3 Pin assignment
3.1 Pin diagram
The available packages are organized into two main types: LCC Ceramic and INVAR. The LCC is a no lead package where the silicon's carrier is ceramic while the INVAR package uses a special nickel-iron alloy as heat dissipation and mechanical reference. While the LCC Ceramic package is oriented for size, resolution and cost conscious applications, the INVAR type is focused on high performance and robustness, where highest speed and high resolutions are the main advantages to the field application. All package types take a cover glass (anti-reflective coating) over sensor's silicon to protect from external dust particles. For the customer, one of the most obvious advantages of Dragster packages is the use of commercially available INVAR connectors or low cost LCC Ceramic connections. This makes each camera development fast, easy and also brings other advantages: precise mechanical alignment to the optics by taking INVAR as reference and its CNC machined features, integrated heat dissipation plate that minimizes sensor stress in z-axis, maximization of sensor performance in speed and noise and customizable package to suit any requirement. The LCC Ceramic can also be mounted as a SMD part. Dragster INVAR modules have up to four Molex connectors with 120-pin and reference 5010171203. On the camera side the matching part is 546841204.

7 Functional description
7.1 General sensor description
The Dragster family has 17 variants, which each one them has one or two lines, from one up to four segments, different pixel size, color, package and resolution. Table 12: Dragster variants Sensor variant # of lines Pixel size (µm) Chroma Resolution Package DR2K7 1 7x7 Mono 2080x1 INVAR/LCC DR2x2K7 2 7x7 Mono/RGB 2080x2 INVAR/LCC DR4K7 1 7x7 Mono 4128x1 INVAR DR4K3.5 1 3.5x3.5 Mono 4160x1 INVAR/LCC DR2x4K7 2 7x7 Mono/RGB 4128x2 INVAR DR6K7 1 7x7 Mono 6176x1 INVAR DR8K7 1 7x7 Mono 8224x1 INVAR DR8K3.5 1 3.5x3.5 Mono 8256x1 INVAR DR2x8K7 2 7x7 Mono/RGB 8224x2 INVAR DR16K3.5 1 3.5x3.5 Mono 16448x1 INVAR Sensors with 3.5 μm pixels are structurally identical to sensors with 7 μm pixel. However, for the sensor with 3.5 μm, two independent readout blocks are placed, one on top of the sensor line, which reads out odd pixels and one at the bottom of the sensor line which reads out even pixels. Thus, for sensors with 3.5 μm pixel, two independent segments are always placed together to form a segment with double resolution compared to the segment with 7 μm pixel. The lowest and maximum resolutions for 7 μm pixel are 2K and 2x8K, respectively. Regarding 3.5 μm pixel, the lowest and maximum resolutions are 4K and 16K, respectively. The first line of the first 2K segment (7 µm) is built of a line of 2080 pixels, having 32 special pixels counting from the left. Similarly, the first 4K segment (3.5 µm) is built of a line of 4160 pixels with 64 special pixels in the beginning. The first 32 (or 64) pixels are used to have a reference for dark current and signal offsets. The remaining 2048 (or 4096) pixels are the light sensitive, responsible for the image effective resolution.
Datasheet • PUBLIC • Document Feedback DS000444 • v5-00 • 2025-Aug-29 23 / 109 For sensors with multiple segments, the added 2K (7 μm) and 4K (3.5 µm) segments have only 2048 or 4096 sensitive pixels, respectively. Regarding readout, these segments are completely independent. This can be exploited to align the readout of the light sensitive pixels from each segment. To do so, the readout is started in the most left segment 16 pixel clock cycles earlier than the segments farther to the right. The individual start of readout for different segments can also be exploited to reduce the required signal bandwidth by sequentially addressing the SRAM blocks of different 2K/4K segments and multiplexing the data lines. The sensor features a 13-bit ramp ADC1 with programmable conversion gain and end of range stage. The on chip digital control circuit generates all necessary control for conversion and the readout modes. However, the readout of a new line can be triggered over an external signal if required. The ADC conversion range (maximum number of bits) can be programmed over the serial interface. Higher conversion range requires longer ADC conversion time.
7.1.1 Placement of pixels
7.1.1.1 DR-XK-7
Figure 7: Placement of pixels sensors with 7 µm pixel pitch (DR8K7) The first 32 pixels include not only dark pixels but also special pixels like described:
- The output from the first pixel is directly connected to the pad 1.2
- The output from the second pixel is directly connected to the pad 21.2
- The third pixel is a black pixel, electrically fixed to ADC low saturation.
- The fourth pixel is a white pixel, electrically fixed to ADC high saturation. 1 It is recommended to only use 12-bit ADC resolution, making use of “Enable Saturation” feature (register CONTROL 1 (0x01), bit 5). For more details, check Section 9.1.1. 2 These pixels are light sensitive. The respective outputs are connected to a test point on the headboard for debugging purpose in certain package variations. 7 µmSpecial Pixels Active Pixels

7.2 Description dragster pixel
The Dragster line scan sensors features a pixel which provides true CDS capability for elimination of reset noise. Other features include programmable analogue gain, anti-blooming and anti-corona circuits that can be activated by register configuration. Each pixel features a programmable 12-bit ADC and memory. Pixels integration, A/D conversion and line readout can be made fully pipelined so that line rate is limited by the longest operation and not by the sum of all three. An overview of the most important blocks of the analogue part and their functionality as well as the register bits which control the features are described below. 7 µm 7 µm Upper Line Lower Line Special Pixels Active Pixels

7.2.1 Anti-blooming circuitry
“Blooming” is a phenomenon observed when a single pixel is heavily over exposed and saturates. Photo generated charges then tend to spill in neighboring pixels. This is prevented by an internal circuit, which will drain charges when the pixel is saturated and prevent them from spilling into neighboring pixels. This circuit is controlled by register 0x02 bit '3'. This bit should be set to ‘0’ for most applications, as it grants the largest linear signal range. Under extreme over exposure conditions, this bit can be set to ’1’, which will start draining excessive charges earlier.

7.2.2 Anti-corona circuitry
“Corona effect” is a phenomenon sometimes observed under heavy over exposure condition when the most exposed pixels start to become dark again instead of white. This condition can be detected by a special circuitry and saturated pixels are then clamped to the white reference value before A/D conversion. This circuitry can be enabled or bypassed by means of register 0x01 bit '7'. The bit set to ‘0’ will disable the anti-corona circuitry and bypass the signal, while ’1’ will enable it.
7.2.3 Analogue gain
The pixel features a programmable analogue gain of factor x4 at CDS stage level. This gain is controlled by register 0x02 bit '5'. The bit set to ‘0’ unity gain is set and ’1’ sets the gain to x4.
7.2.4 CDS reference generation
The reference voltage for all CDS stages is generated in parallel by the internal bias generation block. The power consumption of the driver to this voltage can be regulated by means of register 0x02 bit '1'. A value of ‘1’ will use an adaptive bias scheme to the buffer for this voltage, which will reduce power consumption when this driver is not used (recommended). A ‘0’ will choose a fixed bias value, which will result in a higher overall consumption. The reference voltage of the CDS stage is sampled at start of integration for each line, and thus influences the finally digitized analogue value. Any noise on this signal also influences the final signal value as noise will be added equally to all pixels in the line. For ultimate noise performance, it is advised to compute the average of the first dark pixels 16th to 20th and subtract this value from the finally read out pixels for each line. This computation has to be done off chip, but will lead to better noise performance than the one specified.
7.2.5 Analogue voltage references
The analogue voltage references, especially the references to define the ADC start voltage and the ADC gain are interconnected along the sensor line, however, remain individual for odd an even pixels in the case of 3.5 μm pixels sensors. Each segment comprises an individual SPI block to configure these voltages. Normally, it is recommended to program the registers controlling an interconnected voltage with the same settings. The figures below illustrate how analogue voltages are interconnected over multiple segments and controlled over the respective SPI interfaces for sensors with 7 μm and 3.5 μm pixel pitch respectively.

To avoid latch up problems that can create faulty operation points, the correct sequential power on sequence for all devices in INVAR headboard package is: 1. VDDESD 2. VDDA 3. VDD_BULK 4. VDDD 5. VDDIO 6. Ramp up signals on any inputs 7. Release N_RESET_# If the control overall supplies is not possible, at least care must be taken for the sensor supplies to raise up in the following order: 1. VDDESD 2. VDD_BULK, VDDA, VDDD, VDDIO 3. Ramp up signals on any inputs 4. Release N_RESET_# For the LCC Ceramic package versions, it is important that VDD ramps prior to any digital input signal. The Power Off sequence is the inverse order of Power On, for above both situations. Information:
- Fault A: Any VDDx is supplied before VDDESD or to a higher value than VDDESD.
- Fault B: Digital inputs are supplied prior to supply of VDDESD

7.4 Conversion cycle
7.4.1 General description
The A/D conversion happens when END_ADC signal is at low state. As soon as sampling stage ends (falling edge of SAMPLE) the END_ADC signal leaves reset state and the sensor starts the A/D conversion. Each pixel features a multi stage ADC, which minimizes the offset and gain error between individual pixels and segments. The physical block diagram of the ADC and a description of the main functional modes, are given in Figure 13. For a high resolution, low noise ADC functionality, the ADC is made such that the critical analogue blocks can run at relatively low speed.

7.4.2 ADC linear mode
On linear conversion the ADC will require as many clock cycles as the register programmed ADC end of range. Figure 14 shows a diagram of the ADC linear response function and the effect of the different registers on the transfer function. Information: It is important to program the end of range according to the pixel data bit width. If digital saturation logic is not enabled in the register 0x01 bit '5', ADC end of range is above 4095 DN and only 12 LSBs are read out, this can create signal “wrap around” artefacts when the pixel value is over 4095 DN. In order to reduce the ADC conversion time, comparing to readout time and keep the ADC in linear mode, the conversion can be operated at a higher clock frequency than the remaining circuitry. This is done by directly supplying the higher clock frequency to the chip main clock and programming the internal clock divider (register 0x01 bits 1 and 2) such that the clock frequency in chip's readout remains below 50 MHz. Figure 14: ADC transfer function in linear mode and registers defining the ADC parameters When in linear mode conversion time (CT) is obtained by the Equation below: Equation 1: 𝐶𝑇 = 𝐸𝑛𝑑 𝑜𝑓 𝑅𝑎𝑛𝑔𝑒 𝑅𝑒𝑔𝑖𝑠𝑡𝑒𝑟 × 32 × 1 𝑀𝐶𝐿𝐾 DN ADC End Range Register 9 ADC Step Register 3 ADC Black Level Register 4 Analogue Voltage Range

7.4.3 ADC companding mode
An alternative to running the ADC at higher clock rate is to use the ADC companding mode. As for an optical signal, the photon shot noise increases with signal level, a very small quantization step is only required at the very low signal values. For higher impinging optical signals, the ADC quantization step can be increased such as to match the shot noise present in the light signal. This may significantly reduce the total ADC time required to generate a 12- bit value, while no information is lost. Figure 15 and Figure 16 illustrates the companding ADC mode and the registers involved in programming it is response function.

When using on chip re-linearization, the histogram will show missing codes in the range where the ADC was working in companding mode, that can be corrected by enabling on chip dithering (register 0x01 bit '3'). When in companding mode conversion time (CT) is obtained by the Equation 2: Equation 2: 𝐶𝑇 = [𝑇ℎ1 + 𝑇ℎ2 − 𝑇ℎ1 2 + 𝑇ℎ3 − 𝑇ℎ2 4 + 𝐸𝑛𝑑𝑅𝑎𝑛𝑔𝑒 − 𝑇ℎ3 8 ] × 32 × 1 𝑀𝐶𝐿𝐾 Information: When using the ADC in companding mode, it is important to program the three thresholds strictly monotonously increasing, and smaller than the end of range value. Otherwise, the ADC will not function correctly and produce strongly distorted output signals.

7.5 Readout cycle
As the pixel level ADC signal is stored in an SRAM bench (LOAD_PULSE rising edge), the digital readout is triggered by LOAD_PULSE falling edge. LOAD_PULSE signal can either be provided externally or be generated internally (register 0x02 bit '0'). This signal must be sent after the end of A/D conversion (rising edge of END_ADC), at the earliest possible time, based on the state of the integration time controlling signals (RST_CVC; RST_CDS, SAMPLE) and the programmed ADC end range. The readout is started from the most left pixel to the right. An LVAL signal is generated to indicate valid pixel data. Each Dragster variant has a specific number of outputs (taps).

- SAMPLE rising edge must follow below rules: – Occur at least 1 µs after RST_CDS falling edge. – Occur at least 1 clock cycle after END_ADC goes HIGH. Two configuration options for SAMPLE pulse width are available: 1. Fixed Pulse Width (1 µs): – The entire SAMPLE pulse (rising and falling edges) is shifted in time to adjust when the integration ends, having in consideration the respective timing rules. 2. Variable Pulse Width: – Both SAMPLE rising and falling edges areadjusted to control integration time, having in consideration the respective timing rules. – For a minimum integration time of 2 µs, the SAMPLE pulse must remain high for at least 1 µs. END_ADC Timing:
- The END_ADC falling edge occurs 8 clock cycles after SAMPLE falling edge. LOAD_PULSE Timing:
- The LOAD_PULSE signal (1 clock cycle) rising edge must occur at least 4 clock cycles after the later of: – LVAL falling edge, or – END_ADC rising edge. LVAL Timing:
- The rising edge occurs 8 clock cycles after the LOAD_PULSE falling edge.
7.6.2.1 Idle time
Idle Time consists of:
- The fixed RST_CDS pulse width (2 µs), plus
- The interval between the SAMPLE falling edge and RST_CVC/RST_CDS rising edge (≥ 7 clock cycles).

7.6.2.2 Line rate control
For a Fixed Integration Time:
- The line period (or line rate) is adjusted by changing the interval between the SAMPLE falling edge and RST_CVC/RST_CDS rising edge.
7.6.2.3 Integration time control
For a Fixed Line Period: 1. If SAMPLE has a fixed 1 µs duration:
- To increase integration time: – Move the entire SAMPLE pulse forward, ensuring its falling edge is at least ≥ 7 clock cycles before the next RST_CVC/RST_CDS rising edge.
- To decrease integration time: – Move the entire SAMPLE pulse backward, ensuring a minimum 1 µs interval from RST_CDS falling edge to the SAMPLE rising edge, a minimum 1 µs SAMPLE pulse width and SAMPLE rising edge at least 1 clock apart from END_ADC rising edge. 2. If SAMPLE has a variable width:
- To increase integration time: – Extend SAMPLE pulse by delaying the falling edge, while maintaining at least ≥ 7 clock cycle before the next RST_CVC/RST_CDS rising edge, taking in consideration that SAMPLE rising edge needs always come after END_ADC rising edge.
- To decrease integration time: – Advance SAMPLE falling edge, ensuring a minimum 1 µs interval from RST_CDS failing edge to SAMPLE rising edge, a minimum 1 µs SAMPLE pulse width and SAMPLE rising edge at least 1 clock apart from END_ADC rising edge.
7.6.2.4 Minimum line period requirement
The line period cannot be shorter than:
- The total duration of: – Integration time – RST_CDS pulse width – Time between SAMPLE falling edge and RST_CVC/RST_CDS rising edge
- ADC conversion time
- LVAL period

7.6.2.5 Load pulse signal generation
The LOAD_PULSE signal is at the sensor side latched with the rising edge of pixel clock, thus the phase in which it is generated must be adjusted such that at the sensor pin. The LOAD_PULSE is high only during one rising edge of pixel clock. For low temperatures (below 10ºC) it is recommended to use a pulse width of 2 x Pixel Clock period. In case of problems with stable LVAL generation (no LVAL generated or LVAL signal not with the correct length), please change the phase on which the LOAD_PULSE is generated.

The digital control lines allows a dynamic control that grant maximum flexibility for readout control operations, CVC control, CDS control and test control signals. Most of these signals changes the logic state during pixel integration and readout that cannot be done using static configuration, due to read and write operation times.

8.2 Serial 4-wire configuration interface
8.2.1 General description
The SPI interface controls static configuration data, such as operation modes, ADC gain, black level and other special features. It is present in every segment, top and bottom sides. This interface is based on 8-bit registers and addressed using 8-bit addresses. The interface uses the following signals: Table 15: SPI signals Signal DIG In/Out Function MISO Out Master In, Slave Out MOSI In Master Out, Slave In N_CS In Low active chip select SCLK In Serial interface clock For access to the internal registers of the sensor, a serial interface with four wires are implemented. The interface consists in four different lines, one clock line (SCLK), one receive (MOSI) and transmit (MISO) line which are synchronous to each other. The fourth line is the chip select (N_CS) and must be low to send/receive data through the lines. The sensor is always slave in the application. By the use of the N_CS signal, the master can activate the serial interface of an individual segment or several segments together. The bus frequency range is from DC to 20 MHz, but must always be lower than MCLK/2.
8.2.2 Writing operation
The writing operation is performed by sending the word containing the data and the address. No acknowledge signal or indication is given back. The data is sent from LSB to MSB. The command word has a length of 16 bits and contains the data of the register and the register address. It is possible to write multiple registers consecutively, sending data and address each 16 SCLK. After the last written word, the SCLK should be sent for minimum of two extra clocks, (maximum 4 SCLK) while N_CS is still low. The updating to the registers is performed after update request bit is sent at the next rising edge of END_ADC signal. The last word sent to the registers has to be always to register 0x01 and containing the update request bit, otherwise the update is not performed.

8.2.3 Reading operation
To perform a read operation, the address for the register to be read, has to be written on register 0x15 (as data). After two and half SCLKs relative to the last MOSI bit (A7), the MISO line will send a leading ‘1’, followed by the 8-bit output data (LSB to MSB). It is only possible to read one register at a time, but it is possible to perform consecutive reads from the same segment and register. The raise of N_CS signal can be made right after the complete read of the last bit and SCLK should be placed on hold. Figure 28: Reading operation Time 0 LSB MSB

Set to '1' – The value stored in the offset register is subtracted from the readout signal. 3:3 Dithering 1b Set to '0' – Dithering deactivated (for ADC linear mode).

The register holds the 8 MSB's of a 13-bit value (the 5 LSB's are set by hard wiring to zero). The time in master clock cycles the ADC requires for a conversion equals the value in this register multiplied by 32. Use this register to choose between 10-bit, 11-bit, 12-bit ADC resolution. The ADC resolution trades versus the ADC conversion time. Higher resolution thus requires longer line periods, or the ADC to be run at higher clock frequency.

If added an external DAC, the circuit schematic to be used is shown in Figure 30. If the Test_Mux_# signals are accessible, this option allows to set the ADC offset (black reference) in more fine steps and possibly, with better temperature stability. In order to perform this operation, the Test_Mux_# outputs should be connected and the value 0x0F should be written to register 0x0A in all segments. Also, make sure the DAC output impedance is higher than 200 kΩ. On chip there is an 8-bit resolution DAC for this purpose, but an external DAC can provide benefit if more fine adjustment steps are required. For sensors with 3.5 μm pixel and dual line sensors, once there are individual SPI blocks, it is recommended to connect a DAC for top (DAC1) and bottom (DAC2) side separately, though is not mandatory. Once the individual DAC offsets are equalized over the external connection, the black level can be adjusted by writing the same value to the registers on each segment.

11 Soldering information
Figure 32 shows the maximum recommended thermal profile for a reflow soldering system (following Standard J-STD-020), relative to LCC ceramic package. If the temperature/time profile exceeds these recommendations, damage to the image sensor can occur. Figure 32: Solder reflow profile graph Attention Image sensors with color filter arrays (CFA) are especially sensitive to high temperatures. Prolonged heating at elevated temperatures may result in deterioration of the optical performance of the sensor. A socket is the safest way to avoid any thermal stress. When not using a socket, to avoid heating up the device we recommend to use manual hand soldering. Wave soldering can be used with precautions (see below). Reflow soldering is not recommended.
Datasheet • PUBLIC • Document Feedback DS000444 • v5-00 • 2025-Aug-29 63 / 109 Manual soldering: Use partial heating method and use a soldering iron with temperature control. The soldering iron tip temperature is not to exceed 350°C with a 270°C maximum pin temperature. Touch for a 2 seconds maximum duration per pin. Avoid touching and global heating of the ceramic package during soldering. Failure to do so may alter device performance and reliability. Wave soldering: Wave solder dipping can cause damage to the glass and harm the imaging capability of the device. Avoid the solder to come in contact with the glass or ceramic body.

12.4 Connector signal assignment for Invar headboard variant DR6K7
Information: In this module, analogue and digital grounds are in separate nets. When providing proper decoupling to these signals, the noise parameters can be reduced to a minimum. The data pin order differs from the other variations but the sensor control signals are placed in the same pins. With this it is possible to control the sensor with the same electronics and only changing the data pins reassignment on the processing board.
