PMICs in image sensor applications An image sensor is a typical consumer device making use of PMICs. It’s common in applications such as mobile phones, robotics, and augmented reality (AR) gadgets.

With all the talk of re-establishing domestic semiconductor chip manufacturing capabilities, it is a good time to look at some of the "mature modes" used for producing CMOS image sensor chips ...

So why in the world would someone want to build an image sensor from discrete parts that’s 12,000 times worse than the average smartphone camera? Because, why not?

The new sensor is more light-sensitive, reproduces colours more accurately and offers significantly higher resolution than conventional silicon sensors.

Apple has announced that it's working with Samsung at its Texas plant to "launch an innovative new technology for making chips." Those chips are reportedly cutting-edge image sensors for iPhones ...

Researchers have developed the first in-sensor processor that could be integrated into commercial silicon imaging sensor chips -- known as complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) image ...

Canon's new SPAD sensors work by amplifying a single photon that enters the sensor's pixels into large amounts of electrical energy pulses. This allows the camera to see objects in areas with ...

There’s no screen to check your work — just as with film, you’ll have to wait for the pictures to come back from the lab. The sensor used in the Game Boy Camera is a Mitsubishi M64282FP ...

German engineer Gaurav Singh has designed and built an industrial USB box camera in a custom 3D-printed case that not only accepts interchangeable lenses, but the image sensor can also be swapped ...

A new image sensor design combines hybrid bonding with high-density through silicon via to integrate various components.

There's an image sensor inside every camera, phone and device that records stills or video – and Sony has a 42% chokehold on this market. Yet Canon, despite being the biggest camera manufacturer ...
