CMOS Monochrome Image Sensors
ADCS-1121 (CIF), ADCS-2121 (VGA)
Product Overview
Description
The ADCS-1121 and ADCS-2121
CMOS Monochrome Image
Sensors capture high quality, low
noise images while consuming
very low power. Housed in a new
industry-standard Ceramic
Leadless Chip Carrier (CLCC)
packaging, these parts integrate
a highly sensitive active pixel
photodiode array with timing
control and onboard A/D conver-
sion. Available in either VGA
(640x480) or CIF (352x288)
resolution image arrays, the
devices are ideally suited for a
wide variety of applications.
The ADCS-2121 and ADCS-1121,
when coupled with compatible
image processors from either
Agilent or selected Agilent
partners, provide a complete
imaging system to enable rapid
end-product development.
Designed for low-cost consumer
electronic applications, the
ADCS-1121 and ADCS-2121
image sensors deliver unparal-
leled performance for main-
stream imaging applications.
