As engineers demand faster camera frame rates to speed up production line throughput ... marketing manager for Eastman Kodak’s Image Sensor Solutions group, discussed how newly designed ...

Several market research firms forecast that CMOS (complementary metal-oxide semiconductor) image sensor (CIS) production will reach 400 million units as soon as mid-2002 and surpass that of CCD ...

which is desirable in a high-speed production line. In applications where the highest image quality is needed, such as wafer and mask inspection, customers are willing to pay the higher price of CCD ...

After two decades use, we are all familiar with basic CCD ... sensor be read out, allowing the readout to occur up to 6X faster. For a CMOS camera to support interlace video, its chips are clocked at ...

However, they produce a full line of end-user products that incorporate ... Photobit is also expected to benefit by having the opportunity to examine CCD and CMOS sensor applications in the same ...

Animation to the rescue. These two clips explain the processes that power CMOS, a digital sensor that captures one line at a time, and CCD, a more sophisticated (but expensive) sensor that takes ...

Super CCD uses a honeycomb structure of octagon-shaped light sensors (photodiodes) at 45 degree angles rather than 90 degrees. Introduced in 2000 with its FinePix camera line, the diagonal design ...
