Enables High Sensitivity Video Capturing under Low Light Conditions
TOKYO – Toshiba Corporation (TOKYO: 6502) announced today that it will start mass production shipments of "TCM3211PB", a 1/4 inch VGA CMOS area image sensor for surveillance cameras and drive recorders, at the end of April.
The new sensor adopts large 5.6 µm pixels, improving low light sensitivity. Even in moonlight[1], bright images can be captured.
The sensor also incorporates a single frame HDR (High Dynamic Range)[2] function based on Toshiba algorithm. It reduces false color[3] and faithfully reproduces dark and bright areas in high contrast images.
The product's high frame rate of 60 fps at full resolution enables smooth and seamless capture of video images.
Applications Cameras for security, surveillance and drive recorder applications
Key Features ■High sensitivity achieved by 5.6 µm pixels.
■HDR function realizes high dynamic range of 108dB.
■Adoption of PBGA (Plastic Ball Grid Array) package contributes to downsizing of camera systems.
Main Specifications
Notes:
[1] Equivalent to about 0.2 lux.
[2] A method for simultaneously applying different exposure times to each line of an image and composing them into a single image. For further information about the detail of single frame HDR, please visit.
