OmniVision Doubles Low Light Sensitivity With New OmniPixel3-HS(TM) Architecture
"Our R&D team engaged in a focused effort with technology partner TSMC to move more advanced design rules into the current 0.11-micron image technology to support this new pixel architecture," said
OmniPixel3-HS is a symmetric pixel design that eliminates color shading across the image plane. Combined with a low stack height, the OmniPixel3-HS pixel delivers a sharp, clear and accurate color image across the entire image plane. The new pixel cuts fundamental noise sources in half, significantly increasing the internal pixel gain and the quantum efficiency to provide a sensor with much superior low light performance and improved performance in all lighting conditions.
OmniVision will be demonstrating several new products incorporating its OmniPixel3-HS architecture at the Mobile World Congress (Hall 1, booth 1G13) in
