High-quality, accurate imaging is becoming an increasingly important requirement in many different applications, capturing the dynamic scene from low light conditions to high light conditions is the biggest challenge in this expansion, with the most recent typical applications including UAVs, Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR).
The CMOS imaging sensor uses global shutter technology to allow the imager to capture images in a fast dynamic scene without blurring or bending the image.Traditional rolling shutter sensors read images line by line so that if an object is within a frame Moving, each line will read the object in a different position, the image may appear bent, blurred or distorted Global shutter sensor before reading the image processing, the entire image can be integrated and copied to a storage area, to ensure that the image is clear.
ON Semiconductor's new line of AR0144 image sensors is an example of the latest global shutter CMOS imaging technology based on a 1μm 4-inch optical format based on a 3μm pixel for superior imaging performance under a variety of lighting conditions. The paradigm shift is that the AR0144 offers performance with smaller pixels than previous generations of sensors, making die size smaller and less expensive, making it easier to apply the sensor to the final customer design.
An increasing number of applications are starting to use global shutter technology. Applications such as 2D bar code scanners, industrial inspection equipment, and professional high-end surveillance cameras are examples of using global shutter technology for superior performance, as the AR0144 characterizes the major usage advantages .
Companies that are dedicated to these applications often want to turn their designs into smaller, more portable and more cost-effective formats to meet demanding customer needs, and many new applications are emerging that require global shutter technology Provides unparalleled performance. UAVs need to use global shutters to ensure collision avoidance, AR / VR headsets use global shutters to identify human motion and draw real-world maps in 3D space; and 360-degree panoramic cameras use global shutters Technology ensures that multiple cameras can properly frame synchronization.
The AR0144 is a result of ON Semiconductor's extensive experience in this area of expertise for evolving existing applications and new designs. In addition to ensuring that the storage area is clear of excess light and the image captured is clear, the AR0144 has High quantum efficiency, which captures more light, achieves highly linear full-frame capture, increases dynamic range, and has a high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) to ensure low image noise.
The AR0144 has a monochrome version for device vision applications and a color version for visualization applications. Contact your ON Semiconductor sales representative or an agency to order samples or evaluation boards.
