Sony Pregius IMX535 – 12.42 MP Monochrome CMOS Sensor

The Sony IMX535AAMJ-C is a high-performance CMOS image sensor designed with Sony’s 4th generation Pregius S global shutter technology. This sensor is optimized for applications requiring high-speed and precise image capture, such as factory automation (FA) and intelligent transportation systems (ITS). With a diagonal size of 14.0 mm (Type 1/1.1) and 12.41 million effective pixels, it offers exceptional image clarity and detail. The global shutter feature ensures that all pixels capture light simultaneously, eliminating motion artifacts and distortion, making it ideal for high-speed environments.

Offering a resolution of 4128 x 3008 pixels, with a compact pixel size of 2.74 x 2.74 μm, the IMX535AAMJ-C provides excellent image quality and high sensitivity. The sensor operates at a frame rate of 184 frames per second (fps), making it well-suited for fast-paced industrial and ITS applications where high-speed imaging is crucial. This high frame rate, combined with the global shutter capability, ensures crisp, distortion-free images even when capturing fast-moving objects in dynamic environments.

This sensor operates with a quadruple power supply (analog 3.3 V, 2.9 V, digital 1.1 V, and interface 1.8 V), which optimizes power efficiency while maintaining excellent performance. The IMX535AAMJ-C features high sensitivity and low dark current, which ensures clear image capture even in low-light or high-contrast conditions, making it suitable for a wide range of industrial imaging tasks.

Key features of the IMX535AAMJ-C include:

• 12.42 MP resolution (4128 x 3008)
• Global shutter for distortion-free image capture
• Small 2.74 x 2.74 μm pixel size for detailed imaging
• High frame rate of 184 fps for high-speed imaging
• Quadruple power supply (3.3V, 2.9V, 1.1V, 1.8V) for efficient power consumption
• High sensitivity and low dark current for enhanced image quality
• SLVS and SLVS-EC interfaces for flexible data transfer
• LGA 230-pin package for system integration

The IMX535AAMJ-C is particularly effective in factory automation (FA) and intelligent transportation systems (ITS). In FA settings, the sensor’s high frame rate and global shutter make it ideal for monitoring and inspecting fast-moving objects on production lines, improving accuracy and efficiency in quality control. In ITS applications, the sensor excels in traffic monitoring and vehicle detection, capturing precise and clear images in real time, even under rapidly changing conditions.

The sensor’s compact pixel size of 2.74 x 2.74 μm and high sensitivity make it especially useful in environments where lighting conditions are less than ideal. Its ability to deliver high-resolution images at high speeds, combined with low noise and excellent dynamic range, makes the IMX535AAMJ-C a versatile solution for a variety of industrial imaging applications. Additionally, the SLVS and SLVS-EC interfaces enable fast and reliable data transmission, ensuring that the sensor can be easily integrated into high-performance industrial camera systems.

With its advanced Pregius S global shutter technology, high-speed operation, and robust imaging performance, the Sony IMX535AAMJ-C is a powerful solution for demanding industrial applications. Whether used in fast-paced production environments or in complex traffic monitoring systems, this sensor provides the precision, speed, and reliability needed for modern imaging challenges.
