Teledyne e2v Unveils Next Generation CMOS Image Sensor For Extreme Low Light Conditions

KUALA LUMPUR, Jan 17 (Bernama) -- Teledyne e2v, a Teledyne Technologies company and global innovator of imaging solutions, has announced OnyxMax, the next generation of its popular Onyx 1.3M low light complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) image sensor.

“We are very proud to release OnyxMax, which has been specifically designed to deliver high-performance in challenging low light conditions. This sensor performs significantly better than general purpose image sensors that generally lose contrast in the NIR.

“OnyxMax performs impressively in these conditions and has been very well received by defence, commercial, and scientific markets,” said Teledyne e2v Marketing Manager for Low Noise Imaging, Ariane Le Bon in  a statement.

The combination of sensitivity and image resolution increases its range, allowing even small objects to be detected in harsh conditions, making OnyxMax ideal for a wide range of applications including science, defence, traffic cameras, broadcast and surveillance.

OnyxMax features 1.3 Megapixels and is available in monochrome, as standard, and with colour filter array (CFA) arrangements available on request.

It has a 10 x 10 micrometres (µm) pixel, designed with Teledyne’s new cutting edge HiRho proprietary technology, which enables outstanding Near Infrared (NIR) sensitivity and spatial resolution with Quantum Efficiency (QE) of 58 per cent and MTF of 63 per cent at 850 nanometres (nm) wavelength.

Teledyne e2v innovations lead developments in healthcare, life sciences, space, transportation, defence and security as well as industrial markets.
