DMOM3006A Real-Time ToF Image Signal Processor (ISP)
DMOM3006A brings phase-to-depth processing and correction functions into your ToF imaging pipeline. It receives sensor data through MIPI CSI-2 and provides a 36-bit readout comprising 14-bit distance, 12-bit IR, 8-bit ambient and 2-bit flag fields. MIPI CSI-2 and DVP host-output options connect the processed data to the application processor.
Key Highlights
- Move phase-to-depth processing into the imaging pipeline with a dedicated ToF ISP.
- Give host software distance and IR information alongside ambient and flag fields in a 36-bit readout.
- Apply pixel calibration, distance non-linearity correction and temperature compensation within the processing path.
- Choose a MIPI CSI-2 or parallel DVP host route around your embedded processor architecture.
Overview
DMOM3006A sits between a ToF sensor and the host application processor. Its ISP functions include a configurable region of interest, a 3 × 3 spatial filter, pixel calibration, distance non-linearity correction, temperature compensation and field-of-view compensation.
Auto exposure and HDR form part of the sensing engine. Configure these functions together with the sensor timing and acquisition path for the scene your application needs to capture.

Applications
Embedded robot perception
Supply distance and IR data to host software for scene and object analysis. The ISP handles phase-to-depth and correction functions before the host applies its perception and control logic.
Face-capture pipelines
Use the distance and IR fields as inputs to host-side face capture and analysis. The face-system integration guide explains the roles of image capture, liveness processing and authentication in the complete application.
Object measurement and spatial sensing
Provide processed ToF measurements to reconstruction, object-measurement or region-sensing software. ROI and spatial filtering support acquisition planning around the relevant image region. Our volume-measurement guide connects sensing geometry and calibration to measurement tasks.

Sensor and host integration
Define the capture path
Choose the sensor, input timing and data format together with the ISP configuration. Then select the host’s MIPI CSI-2 or DVP receiver and driver around the required output. The ToF module selection guide compares sensing heads, processed modules and camera routes.
Plan calibration around the assembled camera
Use the final illumination, lens, cover window and mounting arrangement when planning calibration. Pixel, distance and field-of-view corrections belong to the complete optical and processing configuration. The depth-camera calibration guide explains how reference captures support this work.
USB evaluation route
A USB evaluation connection uses additional conversion hardware. DMOM5630A is the companion-board route for discussing USB 2.0 evaluation with DMOM3006A. We can help match the sensor, ISP, conversion board and host software as one configuration.
