Diagonal 8.86 mm (Type 1/1.8) CMOS Solid-state Image Sensor with Square Pixel for
Color Cameras
Description
The IMX678-AAQR1 is a diagonal 8.86 mm (Type 1/1.8) CMOS active pixel type solid-state image sensor with a
square pixel array and 8.40 M effective pixels. This chip operates with analog 3.3 V, digital 1.1 V, and interface 1.8 V
triple power supply, and has low power consumption. High sensitivity, low dark current and no smear are achieved
through the adoption of R, G and B primary color mosaic filters. This chip features an electronic shutter with variable
charge-integration time.
(Applications: Security cameras)
