Onsemi launched grain-size, low-power image sensor family for wide market

Onsemi has launched a new image sensor family called Hyperlux LP with low power consumption for smart homes and offices and industrial applications such as smart doorbells, security cameras, AR/VR/XR headsets, machine vision and video conferencing. Hyperlux LP uses a stacked architecture design that minimizes its footprint and at its smallest approaches the size of a grain of rice, making it ideal for devices where size is critical. Depending on the use case, customers can choose between the 5-megapixel AR0544, the 8-megapixel AR0830 or the 20-megapixel AR2020. Features of The Hyperlux LP family that optimize performance and resolution are: Wake on Motion – Enables the sensors to operate in a low-power mode that draws a fraction of the power needed in the full-performance mode. Once the sensor detects movement, it moves to a higher performance state in less time than it takes to snap a photo. Smart ROI – Delivers more than one region of interest (ROI) to give a context view of the scene at reduced bandwidth and a separate ROI in original detail. Near-Infrared (NIR) Performance – Delivers superior image quality due to the innovative silicon design and pixel architecture, with minimal supplemental lighting. Low Power – Reduces thermal noise which negatively impacts image quality and eliminates the need for heat sinks, reducing the overall cost of the vision system....
