onsemi: High Speed Machine Vision with the AR0235

1/2.8-inch 2 MP CMOS Digital Image Sensor with Global Shutter

The AR0235CS by onsemi is a 1/2.8−inch CMOS digital image sensor with an active−pixel array of 1920 (H) x 1200 (V). It incorporates a new innovative global shutter pixel design optimized for accurate and fast capture of moving scenes. The sensor produces clear, low noise images in both low−light and bright scenes. It includes sophisticated camera functions such as auto exposure control, windowing, row skip mode, column−skip mode, pixel−binning and both video and single frame modes. It is programmable through a simple two−wire serial interface.

The AR0235CS produces extraordinarily clear, sharp digital pictures, and its ability to capture both continuous video and single frames makes it the perfect choice for a wide range of applications, including scanning and industrial inspection.
