Description

The FSM-IMX296C-01C-V1A is a color sensor module featuring the Sony IMX296 1.6 MP Global Shutter CMOS sensor, housed in a compact 26.5 mm x 26.5 mm module with an M12 Mount (CMT821B). This configuration allows for easy integration with M12 lenses, making it suitable for applications requiring compact and flexible imaging solutions. The sensor's 1/2.9-inch optical format and pixel size of 3.45 x 3.45 µm provide excellent image quality and sensitivity.

The module supports a MIPI CSI-2 interface with up to 1 data lane, ensuring efficient data transmission at frame rates up to 60 fps. As part of the FRAMOS Sensor Module Ecosystem, it offers compatibility with various processing platforms through optional FRAMOS Sensor Adapters (FSA) and Processor Adapters (FPA). The standardized Software Pack includes reference drivers for platforms like NVIDIA® Jetson™ TX2, Jetson™ AGX Xavier™, and Jetson™ AGX Orin™, simplifying development.

All necessary components to start capturing images are available off the shelf, allowing immediate evaluation. FRAMOS recommends purchasing the FSM and platform-specific Development Kit (Devkit) for optimal results. Learn more about our Embedded Image Sensor Ecosystem.
