The GSENSE400 is a 4 Megapixels resolution CMOS image sensor using 11μm pitch high dynamic range pixel. The sensor operates in electronic rolling shutter and features an extremely low temporal noise of 1.5 e-. The sensor peak QE is around 58% without μlens. High sensitivity combining the very low noise and low dark current makes it perfect for scientific applications.
This image sensor has two operation modes, STD mode in 48 fps or HDR mode which is optimized for high dynamic range (HDR) applications with half frame rate. In HDR mode, the sensor achieves a linear dynamic range of more than 95.6 dB. GSENSE400 integrates a 12bit ADC, a temperature sensor, a PLL and SPI control on-chip. The power consumption of the image sensor running at full speed is less than 600mW.
