Anwar's high-tech new CMOS image sensor orders camera phone picture quality approaching digital camera

????? Anhua hi-tech (Avago Technologies) recently announced the launch of a 1/4 inch optical format, megapixel CMOS image sensor ADCC-4050.

The sensor allows ultra thin camera phone with automatic zoom feature per second capture up to 30 frame of high resolution video image (800 × 600 pixels), and can output and digital camera images in the same visual quality. ADCC-4050 adopts anhua high technology enhanced (EP, enhanced-performance) pixel structure and the eighth generation of image signal transmission and processing technology, improves the image output latency.

????? Allegedly, enhanced (EP) pixel structure can reduce the dark current and noise, and eliminate lens shadow effects, and CCD sensor in the contend, to achieve breakthrough under low light CMOS sensor performance.

It's 3D pixel e-field sharpening of promotion feature allows each pixel to the light-sensitivity is very high. ADCC-4050 through powerful 8 × 8 pixel group to improve sensitivity; by contrast, with its competition's image sensor product only 1 × 2 group functions.

????? With super thin camera phone's increasingly popular, manufacturers need more compact module size.

ADCC-4050 is one of the few able to easily put into the smallest in the industry today and the thinnest camera module (8mm×8mm×5mm) one of the 2 megapixel sensor (2.2micron×2.2micron). This sensor built-in image processing and JPEG compression function can take up extra space and power consumption of plus chip, while reducing the burden of system processing, streamline design complexity, speed up the product into the market cycle.

Strategies Unlimited company components assessment Director Tom Hausken said: "Anwar hi-tech megapixel image sensor launched very timely. In such a small size to achieve such high quality images and video output, which is very amazed. We expect 200 megapixel CMOS image sensor market in 2006 shows strong growth trend. According to market trends show that offers the same picture quality of digital camera and camera phone will be the future direction of development. ”

Anhua high technology in China and Hong Kong area General Manager Li boat, said: "ADCC-4050 is an exciting megapixel sensor, it can achieve a dimension as the camera module, 8mm×8mm applies to slim handset. In addition to meet consumers ' ADCC-4050 ideal camera phone you must provide the same with a digital camera image and picture quality and video camera equivalent video effects, it uses the schema of the EP-pixels and the image signal output processing technology, but also to implement existing megapixel image sensor product can obtain the best performance. ”

UXGA resolution ADCC-4050 sensor in 1600 × 1200 pixels per second capture 15 frame image; in 800 × 600 pixel SVGA mode per second you can capture 30 frame image. The image sensor has a number of digital cameras and camera same image processing features, including better picture quality can be achieved by the eighth generation of adjustable compression JPEG output, automatically generate thumbnails and faster to reload speed to avoid losing screen, etc. At the same time, it also has a quick auto focus, Flash support, shutter lag correction and the introduction of the second generation simulation of lighting in advanced automatic lighting detect function. In addition, this chip extends the new dynamic range reflects the excellence of ability; and its innovative proprietary exposure control technology you can not increase the noise linearity or weakening color, use the brightness to adjust photos present camera to face challenges.
