Product Summary

The IMX585AAQJ1-C is an 8.29 MP RGB CMOS sensor, ideal for 4K security camera systems and low-light applications.

The Sony Starvis 2 IMX585AAQJ1-C is an 8.29 MP RGB CMOS image sensor, designed for high-performance applications in security camera systems. Featuring a diagonal 12.84 mm (Type 1/1.2) optical format and a pixel array of 3840 x 2160 pixels, the IMX585AAQJ1-C provides detailed 4K imaging with a pixel size of 2.9 µm x 2.9 µm. The sensor uses a rolling shutter and incorporates R, G, and B primary color mosaic filters, ensuring vibrant and accurate color reproduction. Operating on a triple power supply configuration (analog 3.3 V, digital 1.1 V, interface 1.8 V), the sensor offers low power consumption, making it ideal for energy-efficient continuous operation in surveillance systems. With its high sensitivity and low dark current characteristics, the IMX585AAQJ1-C excels in low-light environments, delivering clear, sharp images without smear. The sensor features an electronic shutter with variable charge-integration time, enhancing flexibility in exposure settings. Packaged in a durable ceramic LGA, this sensor is optimized for high-resolution, real-time monitoring applications in security and surveillance systems.
