Product details
Overview
VSP2272M/2K from Texas Instruments is a mixed-signal CCD signal processor IC featuring correlated double sampling (CDS), programmable black level clamping, and a 6-dB to 42-dB digitally controlled PGA, delivering 12-bit digital output at up to 28 MHz for digital still cameras and security camera image pipelines.
For engineers reviewing the VSP2272M/2K datasheet, VSP2272M/2K pinout, VSP2272M/2K application, or VSP2272M/2K equivalent, key selection considerations include its 48-pin P-VQFN (RGN) package, −25°C to 85°C operating range, 2.7–3.6 V single-supply operation, 94 mW typical power at 3 V, and 77-dB SNR performance in CCD front-end signal conditioning.
Technical Context
The VSP2272M/2K integrates a complete analog signal chain for CCD sensors: CDS removes reset noise and pixel pedestal variation, while the linear-in-dB PGA enables precise illumination compensation across varying light conditions. Black level clamping is performed post-CDS with fast recovery after gain changes.
It supports single 3-V/3.3-V supply operation and includes stand-by mode consuming only 6 mW. The 12-bit ADC guarantees no missing codes and operates up to 28 MHz, enabling high-resolution, real-time video digitization in portable imaging systems.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar CCD signal processing applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TDA8787HN/N1 | 10-bit ADC, 40 MSPS max, integrated sync separator, requires ±5 V supplies | Targeted at broadcast-grade composite video decoding-not optimized for CCD-specific CDS or black level clamping | Choose only if legacy NTSC/PAL decoding is required alongside CCD interfacing |
| AD9826ASTZ | 16-bit ADC, 25 MSPS, no integrated CDS or PGA-requires external analog front-end | Designed for high-precision scientific imaging where external CDS and gain stages are acceptable | Select when ultimate dynamic range (>90 dB) is prioritized over integration and power efficiency |
Compared with TDA8787HN/N1 and AD9826ASTZ, the VSP2272M/2K uniquely integrates CDS, black level clamping, and digitally programmable PGA in a single 3-V, low-power package-reducing component count and layout complexity specifically for portable CCD-based imaging.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range for the VSP2272M/2K?
The VSP2272M/2K is specified for operation from −25°C to +85°C. This industrial-grade temperature range supports reliable deployment in consumer digital cameras, outdoor security cameras, and factory-floor machine vision equipment without thermal derating. The device maintains full CDS accuracy, PGA linearity, and ADC performance across this range, as validated in TI's SLES020 datasheet.
Does the VSP2272M/2K require external voltage references or clock sources?
The VSP2272M/2K operates with an external master clock applied to CLKIN but does not require an external voltage reference-the internal bandgap reference ensures stable 12-bit ADC performance. External decoupling capacitors on AVDD and DVDD are mandatory per the datasheet layout guidelines. No external reference IC is needed, simplifying BOM and board space in compact camera modules.
Is the VSP2272M/2K pin-compatible with the VSP2272Y variant?
No, the VSP2272M/2K and VSP2272Y are not pin-compatible. While both use 48-lead packages, the VSP2272M/2K uses a P-VQFN (RGN) package with exposed thermal pad and bottom-side terminals, whereas the VSP2272Y uses an LQFP (PT) package with gull-wing leads. Layout redesign and requalification are required when substituting between these variants.
What serial interface protocol does the VSP2272M/2K support for register configuration?
The VSP2272M/2K supports a 3-wire serial interface (SDATA, SCLK, SEN) compatible with SPI Mode 0 (CPOL = 0, CPHA = 0). It allows read/write access to internal registers controlling PGA gain, clamp timing, CDS mode, and power-down states. No external level-shifting is required when interfacing with 3.3-V microcontrollers or FPGAs.
How does the black level clamping function recover after a PGA gain change in the VSP2272M/2K?
The VSP2272M/2K implements fast black level recovery by dynamically adjusting clamp timing and reference voltage in response to PGA gain updates-ensuring stable black level within one frame period. This behavior is confirmed in the functional description of the SLES020 datasheet and eliminates visible brightness shifts during auto-exposure transitions in DSC and DVC applications.
