摘要： An image signal processing apparatus solves a problem of an increase in noise component contained in an image signal due to the gamma correction when a signal level is in a region where a slope of conversion characteristic is sharp, which problem has been detected in an image signal processing apparatus including gamma correction processing performed for achieving nonlinear conversion. The image signal is input to each of LPFs 40 and 42 which differ in transmission characteristic, and a selector 44 selects either one of outputs from the LPFs to send the selected output to the gamma correction circuit. The switching by the selector 44 is controlled by the filter control circuit 32. In the filter control circuit 32, a comparator 60 compares a signal level of an object pixel with a threshold value R. In the case where the signal level of the object pixel is in the region where the slope of conversion characteristic is sharp (less than R), the selector 44 is so controlled as to select the output from the LPF 42 which has a lower cutoff frequency and a larger noise component elimination effect as compared with the LPF 40.

摘要： A plurality of setting data stored in a serial register 11 and externally supplied replacement data are inputted into selectors 12. Either of the setting or replacement data is provided to the respective one of the setting inputs S.sub.1 -S.sub.n in a digital signal processing unit 10. Each of the selectors 12 usually selects the setting data. When a selector 12 is specified by a decoder 13 based on address data, it only selects the replacement data. When the replacement and address data are suitably set, the computation condition of the digital signal processing unit 10 can be partially changed without rewriting of the setting data in the serial register 11.

A selector chooses one of outputs of the respective LPFs and delivers the chosen output to a gamma correction circuit. The switching of the selector is controlled by a filter control circuit.

摘要： A first solid state imaging device (20a) captures a first picture of a subject to generate a first image signal Ya(t). A second solid state imaging device (20b) captures a second picture of the subject to generate a second image signal Yb(t). In synchronization with operation of the first and second solid state imaging devices (20a, 20b), a selection circuit (26) alternately selects one of the first and second image signals Ya(t) and Yb(t) to output a selected image signal. A digital processing circuit (29) includes a first register (33a) that stores first exposure data EDa generated in accordance with the first image signal Ya(t), and includes a second register (33b) that stores second exposure data EDb generated in accordance with the second image signal Yb(t). This enables smooth switching of operation between the solid state imaging devices.

摘要： An imaging apparatus having a solid-state image sensor, such as a CCD, accumulates information charges corresponding to an image of an object and generates an image signal using the stored charges. A driver provides clock signals to the sensor which define vertical and horizontal scan periods, so that the information charges are accumulated in a predetermined exposure period, in accordance with a timing signal. A first exposure information generating circuit determines whether a level of the image signal is within an appropriate range and produces first exposure information based on the determination results. A second exposure information generating circuit calculates second exposure information using the image signal. A selector selects the first exposure information when the level of the image signal is outside of the predetermined exposure period and selects the second exposure information when the image signal is within the predetermined exposure period. A timing control circuit receives the selected exposure information from the selector and generates the timing signal.

摘要： A frame transfer type solid-state imaging apparatus has a matrix of pixels which store information charges corresponding to a received image. The information charges are moved from the pixels to vertical transfer registers, and then to a horizontal transfer register, prior to being stored. A timing control circuit generates a vertical scan timing signal and a horizontal scan timing signal using a divided clock signal. A horizontal drive circuit generates a horizontal transfer clock using the divided clock signal and the horizontal scan timing signal. The horizontal transfer clock is used to move the information charges from the vertical transfer registers to the horizontal transfer register. A vertical drive circuit generates a vertical transfer clock using a reference clock signal and the vertical scan timing signal. The vertical transfer clock is used to move the information charges from the pixels to the vertical transfer registers. The divided clock signal is generated by dividing the reference clock signal by a predetermined ratio, such that the divided clock signal is longer than the reference clock signal. By generating the vertical transfer clock using the reference clock, and not the longer, divided clock, the resulting image does not have an increase in smear components.
