Omnivision has launched the first CMOS image sensor with a 3.0-micron (µm) pixel automotive viewing applications.
The OX03H10 CMOS image sensor provides 140 dB HDR, LED flicker mitigation and enhanced low-light performance for surround- and rear-view automotive cameras and other vision systems
The 3.0-µm pixel is based on the Omnivision PureCel Plus-S stacking technology for the smallest pixel and highest resolution in a 1/2.44-inch optical format. This provides a resolution of 1920 x 1536 pixels with 60 frames per second (fps) and has low power consumption.
The sensor comes in a small a-CSP package size and is pin-to-pin compatible with the previous OX03F10 automotive image sensor for seamless upgrades. The OX03H10 meets ASIL-C functional safety regulations, features cybersecurity and has a MIPI output interface.
Image sensor for autonomous driving
“The OX03H10 image sensor has excellent low-light performance and shows unrivalled LED flicker mitigation (LFM) by utilizing a single exposure to generate the entire 140 dB dynamic range. This is achieved using our TheiaCel technology, which harnesses the capabilities of lateral overflow integration capacitor (LOFIC) technology, together with our proprietary single-exposure DCG and our well known split pixel high dynamic range (HDR) technology, to enable superior image quality regardless of lighting conditions,” said Naresh Shetty, automotive product marketing manager at Omnivision.
The OX03H10 is available for sampling now and will be in mass production in the first half of 2025.
