Product Summary

The IMX252LLR-C is a 3.19 MP monochrome CMOS sensor designed for high-speed industrial applications, offering high sensitivity and low power consumption.

The Sony Pregius IMX252LLR-C is a high-performance global shutter CMOS image sensor, designed for industrial applications requiring high-speed and high-quality imaging. This sensor features a diagonal 8.9 mm (Type 1/1.8) optical size and 3.19 MP resolution with a pixel array of 2064 x 1544. With a global shutter and variable charge-integration time, it captures clear images even of fast-moving objects without distortion. The IMX252LLR-C operates with triple power supplies: analog 3.3 V, digital 1.2 V, and interface 1.8 V, ensuring low power consumption and high efficiency. Offering a pixel size of 3.45 µm, it delivers excellent sensitivity and low dark current characteristics, making it ideal for challenging lighting environments. With a maximum frame rate of 216 fps, this sensor is perfect for applications like Factory Automation (FA) and Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS), where high-speed imaging is essential. Additionally, it features an LVDS interface that supports high-speed data transmission for real-time image processing.
