As we all know, in the smart phone industry, Sony is the most important player in mobile image sensors, because most of the world's smart phone camera sensors are from Sony, Sony is also the world's largest mobile image sensor manufacturer. Recently, Sony released as a smart phone Another new black technology mobile image sensor developed: IMX586, officially said that the effective pixel of the sensor reached the industry's highest level of 48 million pixels.
Sony said that in recent years, high-end smartphones have put forward higher requirements for the definition of the lens. Therefore, the smartphone-stacked CMOS image sensor 'IMX586' has been officially launched for the market. This mobile phone image sensor represents the highest level in the industry, 48 million. Effective pixels, comparable to high-performance digital SLR cameras, and the world's first development of 0.8μm tiny pixel size, sensor size is only 1/2 inch (diagonal length 8.0mm).
Obviously, the Sony IMX586 image sensor will greatly enhance the clarity of smartphone image capture. Its 48 million effective pixels exceed the 40 million pixels of the Huawei P20 Pro and the 41 million pixels of the Nokia Lumia 1020.
The Sony IMX586 has three major features. The first is the world's first 'recorded' 0.8μm tiny pixel size image sensor. Sony says that in general, the smaller the pixel size, the lower the light collection efficiency per pixel unit, and the sensitivity. The decline will further reduce the saturation signal. However, the design and manufacturing technology of the IMX 586 has greatly improved the light collection rate, photoelectric conversion rate, high sensitivity and high saturation signal.
