CMOS Image Sensors for Real-Time Distance Measurements
These CMOS image sensors have been designed to measure the distance to an object via the Time-Of-Flight (TOF) method. They’re ideal for obstacle detection, shape recognition, motion capture, and security applications because of their ability to measure distances of several meters in real-time.
Each CMOS sensor in this series has a spectral response range from 400 nm to 1100 nm with peak sensitivity in the 800 nm region. Each sensor has a unique image size, pixel pitch, number of pixels, and other discerning specifications, though each model features a high-speed charge transfer structure, real-time distance measurement capabilities, and the ability to operate with minimal detection errors even under fluctuation.
The S11963-01CR image sensor has a 4.8 x 3.6 mm image size, a 30 x 30 µm pixel size, and a 30 µm pixel pitch. This model offers a wide dynamic range and low noise by non-destructive readout. It also includes a built-in column gain amplifier.
The S11962-01CR image sensor has a 2.56 x 2.56 mm image size, a 40 x 40 µm pixel size, and a 40 µm pixel pitch. Like the S11963, it offers a wide dynamic range and low noise by non-destructive readout.
The S11961-01CR has a 5.12 x 0.05 mm image size, a 20 µm pixel pitch, and a 50 µm pixel height.
