To be showcased at AutoSens Detroit, the
OX05D10 is a high–dynamic range image sensor with TheiaCel™
technology that mitigates LED flicker regardless of lighting
condition
OMNIVISION, a leading global developer of semiconductor
solutions, including advanced digital imaging, analog and touch
& display technology, today announced the new OX05D10
5-megapixel (MP) CMOS image sensor with TheiaCel™ technology, which
provides the industry’s leading LED flicker mitigation (LFM)
without sacrificing image quality. The OX05D10 image sensor is
ideal for all automotive use cases where high dynamic range (HDR),
low-light performance and LFM are critical. It will be showcased at
AutoSens Detroit, taking place May 21-23, 2024, in Detroit.
“The new OX05D10 is the latest addition to our family of
automotive sensors that feature TheiaCel™ technology, joining the
OX08D10 8MP sensor that we have announced last September at
AutoSens Brussels,” said Dr. Paul Wu, head of automotive product
marketing, OMNIVISION. “TheiaCel™ enables the OX05D10 to achieve
high LFM without sacrificing image quality, and the OX05D10 also
retains all the most important features that automotive OEMs
demand, including low-light performance, small size and low power.
We have expanded our product line to offer our customers the choice
between 8MP and 5MP, depending on their needs.”
The increasing adoption of advanced driver assistance systems
(ADAS) and autonomous driving (AD) requires improved LFM, HDR and
high-resolution image sensors. For example, pulsed illumination
from LED traffic lights poses a serious challenge for many imaging
solutions, preventing ADAS and AD systems from correctly detecting
lighted traffic signs. OMNIVISION has addressed this issue with its
2.1µm single-pixel TheiaCel™ technology. TheiaCel™ leverages
next-generation LOFIC capabilities together with the proven
strength of OMNIVISION’s other proprietary HDR technologies (e.g.
patented DCG technology), to capture extremely high-contrast scenes
for optimum content and image quality. OMNIVISION’s TheiaCel™ DCG +
LOFIC solution delivers a wide dynamic range within a
single-exposure HDR image.
Key features of the OX05D10 sensor include:
- 5MP sensor using the optimal HDR scheme and next-generation LFM
technology:
- ~140 dB dynamic range (using VS exposure for dynamic range
extension)
- >110 dB LFM and motion free dynamic range (single exposure
HDR: DCG + LOFIC)
- PureCel®Plus-S technology, renowned for its low-light
sensitivity and the industry’s leading signal-to-noise ratio
performance
- Best-in-class power consumption
- Stability over temperature range
- Cybersecurity and ASIL B
- Support for 4-lane MIPI CSI-2
- a-CSP™ package technology for the smallest possible camera
solution
Samples of the OX05D10 are available now, and it will be in mass
production in Q3 2025. For more information, contact an OMNIVISION
