Product Overview

The IMX464LQR1-C is a high-sensitivity CMOS sensor with 4.09 MP resolution, optimized for industrial and surveillance systems with 90 fps and AR coating for enhanced image quality.

The Sony IMX464LQR1-C is a CMOS image sensor designed to provide high performance for applications such as surveillance, factory automation (FA), and industrial cameras. With a diagonal size of 9.04 mm (Type 1/1.8 inch) and 4.17 million effective pixels, this sensor excels in low-light environments, delivering high-quality images with superior sensitivity and low dark current. Its use of Sony’s STARVIS technology ensures that it captures clear images with minimal smear, even in challenging lighting conditions.

Offering a resolution of 2688 x 1520 pixels, the IMX464LQR1-C features a pixel size of 2.9 x 2.9 μm, which enhances light sensitivity, making it particularly well-suited for low-light scenarios. The sensor supports a high frame rate of up to 90 frames per second (fps), making it ideal for real-time imaging applications. Equipped with an electronic shutter that has variable charge-integration time, the sensor provides precise exposure control to adapt to rapidly changing lighting conditions.

Key features of the IMX464LQR1-C include:

  • 4.09 MP resolution (2688 x 1520)
  • 2.9 x 2.9 μm pixel size for enhanced low-light performance
  • Electronic shutter with variable charge-integration time
  • High-speed frame rate of 90 fps for real-time imaging
  • STARVIS technology for high sensitivity and low dark current
  • Triple power supply (2.9V, 1.2V, 1.8V) for low power consumption
  • MIPI interface for fast and efficient data transmission
  • LGA 132-pin package for robust and flexible integration
  • AR coating to minimize reflections and enhance image clarity

The IMX464LQR1-C is particularly well-suited for surveillance cameras that require high sensitivity for night-time monitoring and low-light performance. Its ability to capture clear and detailed images even in dimly lit environments makes it ideal for use in factory automation and industrial cameras, where fast, accurate imaging of moving objects or processes is essential.

With its 2.9 x 2.9 μm pixel size, the sensor offers exceptional light-gathering capabilities, ensuring excellent image quality in both well-lit and low-light environments. The MIPI interface facilitates fast data transmission, making integration into modern imaging systems straightforward. Additionally, the sensor’s LGA 132-pin package, combined with the anti-reflective (AR) coating, ensures durability and minimizes reflections for improved image clarity.

The Sony IMX464LQR1-C offers a powerful blend of high sensitivity, fast imaging, and versatile integration, making it an excellent choice for a wide range of imaging applications in surveillance, factory automation, and industrial monitoring.
