Line Scan Sensor

Line scan sensor optimized for applications requiring short exposure times and high accuracy line rates. It incorporates on chip two pixel arrays consisting of 2 rows with 4,096 7µm pitch pixels and 4 rows with 2,048 14µm pitch pixels respectively, a high accuracy (12-bit) high speed (84MHz) analog-to-digital conversion (ADC), and sophisticated on chip optical calibration for PRNU, DSNU, and lens shading correction.

Sensors are available immediately in resolutions from 2k to 16k with the following features:

Fast line rates – Data throughput up to 1.1 Gpix/s for improved productivity allowing faster scanning in less time

True color imaging – 3-line Red/Green/Blue, 4-line Red/Green/Blue/NIR, and bilinear subsampled color

Common interface – Common pinouts, data interfaces, control interfaces, and mechanical connectivity enable easier design-in for multiple sensor solutions.

Multi-line scan with independent exposure control – the ability to control the amount of light hitting every line enables dynamic white balancing, and flexible lighting for advanced defect detection.

High bit depth On-Chip ADC – enables enhanced dynamic range and low noise by minimizing issues due to quantization. Improved overall contrast for more image clarity

Vertically integrated design, development, and manufacturing - a vertically integrated, turnkey solution including a single manufacturing path from wafer probe to packaged part test. Leveraged expertise across a global family of Teledyne companies to provide full mixed-signal CMOS design, and best-in-class CMOS fabrication.

This is the first in a series of image sensor releases. A full list of available image sensors, with specifications and part numbers is available
