 2)) / n 
Where n=1 if register [3E], COMO<7> is set to “1” and n=2 otherwise. 
Common control A 
COMA[7] – SRST, “1” initiates soft reset. All registers are set to default values and 
chip is reset to known state and resumes normal operation. This bit is automatically 
cleared after reset. 
COMA[6] – MIRR, “1” selects mirror image 
COMA[5] – AGCEN, “1” enables AGC, 
COMA[4] – Digital output format, “1” selects 8-bit: Y U Y V Y U Y V 
COMA[3] – Select video data output: “1” - select RGB, “0” - select YCrCb 
COMA[2] – Auto white balance “1” - Enable AWB, “0” - Disable AWB 
COMA[1] – Color bar test pattern: “1” - Enable color bar test pattern 
COMA[0] – reserved 
Note: 
COMA[3] is not programmable on the OV6130 image sensor. 
Common control B 
COMB[7:6] – reserved 
COMB[5] - Select data format. “1” - select 8-bit format, Y/CrCb and RGB is 
multiplexed to 8-bit Y bus, UV bus is tri-stated, “0” - select 16-bit format 
COMB[4] – “1” - enable digital output in ITU-656 format 
COMB[3] – CHSYNC output. “1” - horizontal sync, “0” - composite sync 
COMB[2] – “1” – Tri-state Y and UV busses. “0” - enable both busses 
COMB[1] – “1” - Initiate single frame transfer. 
COMB[0] – “1” - Enable auto adjust mode. 
Note: 
COMB[5] is not programmable on the OV6130 image sensor. 
Common control C 
COMC[7:6] – reserved 
COMC[5] – QCIF digital output format selection. 1 - 176x144; 0 - 352x288. 
COMC[4] – Field/Frame vertical sync output in VSYNC port selection: 1 - frame sync, 
only ODD field vertical sync; 0 - field vertical sync, effect in Interlaced mode 
COMC[3] – HREF polarity selection: 0 - HREF positive effective, 1 - HREF negative. 
COMC[2] – gamma selection: 1 - RGB Gamma on ; 0 - RGB gamma is 1. 
COMC[1:0] – reserved 
Common Control D 
COMD[7:2] – reserved bit. 
COMD[1] – PCLK polarity selection. “0” - OV6630/OV6130 output data at PCLK 
falling edge and data bus will be stable at PCLK rising edge; “1” - rising edge output 
data and stable at PCLK falling edge. This bit is disable and should use PCLK rising 
edge latch data bus in ITU-656 format (COMB[4]=1). 
COMD[0] – U V digital output sequence exchange control. 1 - UV UV 
···
 for 16-bit, 
U Y V Y 
···
 for 8-bit; 0 - V U V U 
···
 for 16-bit and V Y U Y 
···
 for 8-bit. 
Note: 
COMD[0] is not programmable on the OV6130 image sensor.
