Product Overview

The IMX565AAQJ-C is a 12.42 MP color CMOS sensor with a global shutter, optimized for FA and ITS cameras.

The Sony IMX565AAQJ-C is a high-performance CMOS image sensor featuring Sony’s advanced 4th generation Pregius S global shutter technology. With a diagonal size of 14.0 mm (Type 1/1.1 inch) and 12.41 million effective pixels, this sensor is ideal for industrial imaging applications requiring both high resolution and precision, such as factory automation (FA) and intelligent transportation systems (ITS). Its global shutter technology ensures that all pixels capture light simultaneously, eliminating motion blur and distortion even in fast-moving environments.

The IMX565AAQJ-C provides a resolution of 4128 x 3008 pixels, with a pixel size of 2.74 x 2.74 μm, offering excellent image clarity and sensitivity. Operating at a frame rate of 42 frames per second (fps), the sensor is well-suited for applications requiring accurate and detailed imaging in real-time, such as vehicle detection and high-speed inspections on production lines. The global shutter ensures that even fast-moving objects are captured clearly, making this sensor ideal for dynamic environments.

This sensor operates with a quadruple power supply (analog 3.3 V, 2.9 V, digital 1.1 V, and interface 1.8 V), optimizing its power consumption while maintaining superior performance. High sensitivity and low dark current characteristics allow the IMX565AAQJ-C to deliver clear and sharp images even in low-light environments, ensuring high-quality imaging in challenging lighting conditions.

Key features of the IMX565AAQJ-C include:

  • 12.42 MP resolution (4128 x 3008)
  • Global shutter for distortion-free image capture
  • 2.74 x 2.74 μm pixel size for high-resolution imaging
  • Frame rate of 42 fps for real-time 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
  • MIPI interface for fast and reliable data transfer
  • LGA 230-pin package for flexible system integration

The IMX565AAQJ-C is particularly well-suited for applications in factory automation (FA) and intelligent transportation systems (ITS). In FA applications, the sensor’s global shutter and high frame rate allow for precise and accurate monitoring of fast-moving objects, improving both production efficiency and quality control. In ITS, the sensor excels in real-time traffic monitoring, vehicle detection, and license plate recognition, capturing sharp images even at lower frame rates.

Its compact pixel size of 2.74 x 2.74 μm, combined with high sensitivity, makes the IMX565AAQJ-C highly effective in low-light environments, ensuring clear image capture even under challenging conditions. The sensor’s MIPI interface allows for fast and reliable data transmission, simplifying its integration into high-performance imaging systems. Additionally, the LGA 230-pin package offers flexibility for system designs where space is a concern, while maintaining high-speed, high-resolution performance.

With its combination of high-resolution imaging, global shutter technology, and efficient power consumption, the Sony IMX565AAQJ-C is a powerful and versatile solution for a wide range of industrial imaging applications. Whether used in high-speed production lines or real-time traffic monitoring systems, this sensor delivers the precision, speed, and reliability required for today’s complex imaging challenges.
