OmniVision OV5645 1/4″ Color CMOS QSXGA (5 Megapixel) Camera Image Sensor

●OmniVision's OV5645 is a high-performance, 5-megapixel system-on-chip (SOC) ideally suited for the cost-sensitive segment of the mobile handset market. The CameraChip™ sensor's single MIPI port replaces the bandwidth-limited DVP interface and expensive embedded JPEG compressor, enabling the new OV5645 sensor to save significant silicon area and cost. Embedded autofocus control with voice coil motor driver provides further cost savings to the end user, making the OV5645 an attractive alternative to other 5-megapixel sensors currently on the market.

●The OV5645 also features a new picture-in-picture (PIP) architecture, providing an easy-to-implement, low-cost dual-camera system solution for mobile phones and smartphones. The feature is based on a master/slave configuration, where the front-facing camera (OV7965) can be connected through the OV5645 master camera, enabling a dual-camera system with PIP functionality without the need to add a MIPI interface to the baseband processor.

●Based on OmniVision's 1.4-micron OmniBSI™ pixel architecture, the OV5645 provides high-performance 5-megapixel photography and 720p HD video at 60 frames per second (FPS), as well as 1080p HD images at 30 frames per second, with full user control over the format and output data transmission. The sensor's 720p HD video is captured across the full field of view with 2 x 2 binning, doubling sensitivity and improving signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). A unique post-binning, resampling filter feature removes jagged artifacts around slanted edges and minimizes spatial artifacts to provide clearer color images.
