Toshiba launches full hd cmos image sensor with colour noise reduction
Toshiba has introduced the T4K71, a full hd (1080p) back side illumination cmos image sensor with an integrated colour noise reduction (CNR) circuit.
The 1.12µm device offers a high speed frame rate of 60fps and is said to enable chip and camera module miniaturisation, contributing to thinner smartphones and tablets.
It also provides image scaling and picture flip functionality, as well as lens shading correction and auto defect pixel correction. Connectivity includes I2C interface and CSI-2 interfaces.
Samples of the T4K71 will be available at the end of April 1013, with mass production scheduled to start in September.
