6.1.3. Column Process 
The voltage signal from a single pixel is send to the 
column amplifier trough the 4 to 1 multiplexer. After 
the S/H circuit, the offset and gain calibrating is 
perform. A 10 bit A/D converter send the digital pixel 
signal to the digital horizontal shift register by a 1 to 4 
multiplexing. Signals from a single row with 667 pixels 
are processed in parallel and send to the shift register.

The calibrate command CB = 0 will start an automatic  
calibrate routine for offset and gain for all 167 A/D  
converter. It reduces the vertical fix pattern column noise.

6.1.4. CV-A33 CMOS Sensor array 
The CMOS sensor total array is 667 (h) x 502 (v).  
Here the 659 (h) x 494 (v) is active photo sensing 
pixels. 8 pixels (h) and 8 rows (v) are optical 
black pixels for internal black level reference. 
There is an A/D converter for each 4 columns. 
A 4 to 1 multiplexer feed the signals from 4 
columns to a A/D converter. The digital 
converter output is multiplexed to the 667 x10 
bit register.
