CMOS image sensor works well in both low and bright-light conditions
ON Semiconductor has introduced a new 1/4-inch, 1.0 Megapixel (Mp) (1280H x 800V) CMOS digital image sensor that captures clean, accurate images with no artifacts in both bright and low light conditions. Its high shutter efficiency and signal-to-noise ratio minimize ghosting and noise effects improving overall image quality. The 3.0 μm pixel AR0144 incorporates an innovative global shutter design that […]
ON Semiconductor expands fab footprint in Japan
Fujitsu Semiconductor Limited and ON Semiconductor announced an agreement that ON Semiconductor will purchase a 30 percent incremental share of the Fujitsu’s 8-inch wafer fab in Aizu-Wakamatsu, resulting in 40 percent ownership when the purchase is completed. The purchase is scheduled to be completed on April 1, 2018, subject to certain regulatory approvals and other […]
