Product Overview

The IMX530AAQJ-C is a 24.55 MP color CMOS sensor with a global shutter, designed for high-speed imaging in industrial and ITS applications.

The Sony IMX530AAQJ-C is a high-performance CMOS image sensor utilizing Sony’s 4th generation Pregius S global shutter technology. With a diagonal size of 19.3 mm (Type 1.2 inch) and 24.55 million effective pixels, this sensor is ideal for industrial applications that require high-speed, high-resolution image capture. Its global shutter feature ensures that all pixels capture light simultaneously, preventing motion blur and distortion, making it perfect for fast-moving environments like factory automation (FA) and high-precision inspection systems.

The IMX530AAQJ-C offers a resolution of 5328 x 4608 pixels, with a pixel size of 2.74 x 2.74 μm, providing high image clarity and exceptional sensitivity. The sensor operates at a maximum frame rate of 106 frames per second (fps), making it well-suited for high-speed imaging applications where accuracy and speed are critical. The global shutter ensures distortion-free imaging, making it ideal for capturing fast-moving objects in dynamic environments.

Operating with a quadruple power supply (analog 3.3 V, 2.9 V, digital 1.1 V, and interface 1.8 V), the IMX530AAQJ-C is optimized for low power consumption while maintaining superior performance. Its high sensitivity and low dark current characteristics further enhance its capability to deliver high-quality images in low-light or high-contrast situations, making it versatile for a wide range of industrial imaging tasks.

Key features of the IMX530AAQJ-C include:

  • 24.55 MP resolution (5328 x 4608)
  • Global shutter for distortion-free image capture
  • Compact 2.74 x 2.74 μm pixel size for high-resolution imaging
  • Frame rate of 106 fps for high-speed image capture
  • 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 easy system integration

The IMX530AAQJ-C is particularly well-suited for applications in factory automation (FA) and industrial inspection. In FA systems, its high frame rate and global shutter technology make it ideal for monitoring and inspecting fast-moving parts, improving production efficiency and quality control. Its ability to capture high-resolution images with great clarity makes it indispensable for precision inspection tasks, where identifying small defects is essential.

The sensor’s compact pixel size of 2.74 x 2.74 μm and high sensitivity make it highly effective in environments with challenging lighting conditions. The combination of high-speed performance and exceptional image quality allows the IMX530AAQJ-C to be used in a variety of demanding industrial imaging applications, from high-speed production lines to detailed inspection systems. Additionally, the SLVS and SLVS-EC interfaces ensure fast and reliable data transmission, simplifying system integration for high-speed imaging systems.

With its advanced Pregius S global shutter technology, high-speed performance, and robust imaging capabilities, the Sony IMX530AAQJ-C is a versatile solution for modern industrial imaging applications. Whether used in automated production lines or precision inspection systems, this sensor provides the speed, accuracy, and reliability required for the most demanding imaging challenges.
