Description

The VB1943 and VD1943 are 5.1 megapixel, 2.25 µm global, and rolling shutter image sensors. They are designed for a wide spectrum of applications that require capturing color and NIR images. Operation of these sensors combines global and rolling shutter technology with an extended dynamic range.

Leveraging from preeminent 3D stacking and ST patented processes, these sensors perform outstandingly in the NIR (940 nm) and visible region. In global shutter mode, they can capture up to 100 frames per second in a 2560 x 1984 resolution format.

The VB1943 and VD1943 sensors can be used in rolling shutter mode, taking advantage of low dark noise capability. They can operate in an 18-bit HDR mode compressed down to 12 or 10 bits through a customizable PWL.

The RGB-NIR input image is processed by the integrated advanced ISP. It can reconstruct a full resolution NIR smart upscaled monochrome image or a 2x2 color Bayer image NIR depolluted.

For computer vision applications, acquisition can be switched to global shutter mode with an NIR light source. Switching to global shutter mode with an external NIR light source greatly reduces the system power consumption that is required to drive the illumination.
