Sony IMX541 – 20.36 MP Global Shutter CMOS Sensor

The Sony IMX541AAQJ-C is a high-resolution CMOS image sensor designed for industrial applications requiring precision and speed, such as factory automation (FA) cameras and intelligent transportation systems (ITS). With a diagonal size of 17.5 mm (Type 1.1) and a resolution of 20.35 megapixels, this sensor leverages global shutter technology to capture fast-moving objects without distortion, making it ideal for environments where clarity and accuracy are essential.

The IMX541AAQJ-C features a square pixel array with a resolution of 4512 x 4512 pixels and a pixel size of 2.74 x 2.74 µm. This high resolution allows for detailed, sharp images, crucial in applications like machine vision, traffic monitoring, and inspection systems. With a frame rate of 42 frames per second (fps), it delivers smooth performance even in dynamic imaging scenarios.

This sensor is equipped with a global shutter and variable charge-integration time, ensuring distortion-free image capture, especially in high-speed environments. The global shutter capability is particularly useful in applications where motion blur must be eliminated to maintain image integrity, such as in industrial robotics or transportation monitoring.

The IMX541 operates with a quadruple power supply system: 3.3 V and 2.9 V for analog circuits, 1.1 V for digital operations, and 1.8 V for the interface. This ensures low power consumption without sacrificing performance, making it suitable for continuous, long-term use in demanding environments.
