Abstract
An imaging system with image data path delay measurement includes (a) a first image sensor chip that includes a pixel array for generating a first image in response to light incident upon the pixel array, and a time mark generator for, upon receiving a time mark command, encoding a signature in the first image to generate a first marked image with the signature and image data from the first image, and (b) an image signal processing chip for processing the first marked image, wherein the image signal processing chip includes a data path delay measurement module for generating the time mark command and estimating image data path delay from the pixel array to the data path delay measurement module based upon time delay between (i) generating the time mark command and (ii) receipt of the signature as part of the first marked image.
