Product Summary

The IMX420LLJ-C is a 7.06 MP monochrome CMOS sensor with a global shutter, designed for high-speed industrial imaging applications.

The Sony Pregius IMX420LLJ-C is a high-performance 7.06 MP monochrome CMOS sensor. With a diagonal size of 17.6 mm (Type 1.1) and a pixel array of 3208 x 2200, this sensor is ideal for industrial applications such as factory automation (FA) and intelligent traffic systems (ITS). It features a global shutter with variable charge-integration time, ensuring distortion-free capture of fast-moving subjects. The IMX420LLJ-C operates on a triple power supply of analog 3.3 V, digital 1.2 V, and interface 1.8 V, delivering high sensitivity and low dark current. Its 4.5 x 4.5 µm pixel size enhances image quality, particularly in low-light conditions. Supporting up to 200 fps, the sensor delivers fast frame rates suitable for high-speed imaging applications. The SLVS interface ensures quick data transfer, and the sensor is packaged in a robust 226-pin LGA housing for long-term industrial use.
