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.
