Description

The Sony IMX541AAQJ-C is a high-resolution CMOS image sensor designed for industrial applications requiring precision and speed, such as factory automation (FA) cameras and intelligent transportation systems (ITS). With a diagonal size of 17.5 mm (Type 1.1) and a resolution of 20.35 megapixels, this sensor leverages global shutter technology to capture fast-moving objects without distortion, making it ideal for environments where clarity and accuracy are essential.

The IMX541AAQJ-C features a square pixel array with a resolution of 4512 x 4512 pixels and a pixel size of 2.74 x 2.74 µm. This high resolution allows for detailed, sharp images, crucial in applications like machine vision, traffic monitoring, and inspection systems. With a frame rate of 42 frames per second (fps), it delivers smooth performance even in dynamic imaging scenarios.

This sensor is equipped with a global shutter and variable charge-integration time, ensuring distortion-free image capture, especially in high-speed environments. The global shutter capability is particularly useful in applications where motion blur must be eliminated to maintain image integrity, such as in industrial robotics or transportation monitoring.

The IMX541 operates with a quadruple power supply system: 3.3 V and 2.9 V for analog circuits, 1.1 V for digital operations, and 1.8 V for the interface. This ensures low power consumption without sacrificing performance, making it suitable for continuous, long-term use in demanding environments.

  • 20.35 MP resolution with 4512 x 4512 pixel array
  • Global shutter for distortion-free capture of fast-moving objects
  • 42 fps frame rate for smooth high-resolution imaging
  • 2.74 x 2.74 µm pixel size for detailed, sharp images
  • Quadruple power supply for efficient operation (3.3V, 2.9V, 1.1V, and 1.8V)
  • SLVS and SLVS-EC interfaces for fast, reliable data transmission
  • Durable 230-pin LGA ceramic package for easy integration into various imaging systems

As part of Sony’s Pregius S line, the IMX541AAQJ-C benefits from 4th-generation global shutter technology, which enhances sensitivity and reduces dark current, resulting in superior image quality even in low-light conditions. Packaged in a compact 21 mm x 20 mm LGA ceramic package, the sensor is easy to integrate into space-constrained systems.

The Sony IMX541AAQJ-C is an excellent choice for applications where both high resolution and global shutter functionality are essential, ensuring reliable and clear imaging in industrial and monitoring systems.
