New FSI and BSI Sensors Feature Pixel Upgrade with Enhanced Sensitivity and Performance; 2‑Exposure Staggered HDR Extends Wide Dynamic Range for the Highest Quality Images
SANTA CLARA, Calif. — June 3, 2024 — OMNIVISION, a leading global developer of semiconductor solutions, including advanced digital imaging, analog, and touch & display technology, today announced the addition of two new image sensors to its comprehensive family of solutions for industrial and consumer security surveillance cameras:
- The new OS04J10 is a 4MP image sensor with a large, 2.9 µm backside illuminated (BSI) pixel with PureCel®Plus and Nyxel® technologies for industry-leading performance in ultra-low-light conditions.
- The new OS05L10 is a 5-megapixel (MP) front side illumination (FSI) image sensor featuring a 2.0-micron (µm) pixel based on OMNIVISION’s OmniPixel®3‑HS technology for high sensitivity and performance.
“OMINVISION offers a very comprehensive portfolio of high-performance sensors for the security market, from industrial camera solutions to small doorbell security devices, and we strive to provide the ideal price / performance for our customers,” said Cheney Zhang, senior marketing manager, OMNIVISION. “These latest solutions are pin-to-pin compatible with some of our previous-generation sensors so customers can seamlessly upgrade to higher resolution devices. OS04J10 features OMNIVISION’s unique DCG™ Technology that extends HDR by sampling conversion gains twice and adding exposures for accurate scene reproduction, delivering the most accurate, low-noise and motion artifact-free captures both indoors and outdoors.”
Key features of the OS04J10 image sensor:
- 2560 x 1440 resolution (4MP)
- Frame rate of 60 fps
- 2‑exposure staggered HDR and DCG™ HDR technology
- NIR quantum efficiency: 850 nm and 940 nm
- Ultra-low power (<200 mW) and noise, long battery life
- High performance 2.9 µm PureCel®Plus BSI pixel
- 1/1.88‑inch optical format
- Interface: MIPI/LVDS: 2/4‑lane
- CSP package
Key features of the OS05L10 image sensor:
- 2880 x 1620 3K resolution (5MP) to capture real-time fast moving objects
- Frame rate of 30 fps
- 2‑exposure staggered HDR
- High sensitivity 2.0 µm OmniPixel®3‑HS FSI pixel
- 1/2.7‑inch optical format (common size for cost-effective upgrades)
- Interface: MIPI: 1/2‑lane
- CSP package
The OS04J10 also features a spread spectrum clocking (SSC) mode that reduces electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radiation. Both sensors are available for sampling now and will be in mass production in Q3 2024. For more information, contact your OMNIVISION sales representative: www.ovt.com/contact-sales.
