VGA Sensor Features Big Pixels And Super-Fast Frame Rates

Available from FRAMOS, the Sony IMX426 Pregius third generation Global Shutter CMOS image sensor provides a 9-µm pixel size and reaches VGA resolution with 1,449 fps at 10-bits. VGA resolution is sufficient to solve numerous tasks in factory automation and ITS.

 

The IMX426 is a diagonal 9.2-mm, 1/1.7 format type of imager with a square pixel pitch of 9-µm. The Pregius global shutter pixel technology for active pixel-type CMOS image sensors that use Sony's low-noise CCD structure realizes high picture quality. Working with an SLVS-EC high-speed interface, the sensor reaches a read-out speed up to 1,594 fps at an 8-bit resolution.

 

The chip operates with analog 3.3V, digital 1.2V, and interface 1.8V triple power supplies with low power consumption. Evaluation samples are available from FRAMOS immediately, mass production starts end of 2018 with monochrome and middle of Q1 2019 with color version. For more details, visit FRAMOS.
