Product Overview

The IMX664AAQR1-C is a 4.16 MP CMOS sensor with RGB filters, offering high sensitivity and a 90 fps frame rate, ideal for advanced security camera applications.

The Sony IMX664AAQR1-C is a high-performance CMOS image sensor from the Sony Starvis 2 series, specifically designed for security camera applications. With a diagonal size of 9.02 mm (Type 1/1.8 inch) and 4.16 million effective pixels, this sensor is engineered to deliver exceptional image quality, even in challenging lighting environments. Utilizing Sony’s advanced Starvis 2 technology, the IMX664AAQR1-C achieves high sensitivity, low dark current, and no smear, making it ideal for applications where precise and clear imaging is critical.

The sensor features a resolution of 2704 x 1540 pixels with a pixel size of 2.9 x 2.9 μm, providing detailed and vibrant images. It operates with a rolling shutter mechanism and is equipped with R, G, and B primary color mosaic filters to ensure accurate color reproduction and superior image quality. The IMX664AAQR1-C operates with a triple power supply (analog 3.3 V, digital 1.1 V, and interface 1.8 V), providing efficient power consumption without sacrificing performance.

Key features of the IMX664AAQR1-C include:

  • 4.16 MP resolution (2704 x 1540)
  • Rolling shutter for area sensor imaging
  • 2.9 x 2.9 μm pixel size for high sensitivity and detailed imaging
  • Triple power supply (3.3V, 1.1V, 1.8V) for efficient power usage
  • High sensitivity and low dark current for excellent low-light performance
  • Electronic shutter with variable charge-integration time
  • MIPI interface for reliable and fast data transmission
  • LGA 132-pin package for flexible system integration

The IMX664AAQR1-C is especially suitable for security camera applications, where high sensitivity, clarity, and low-light performance are critical. The sensor’s advanced Starvis 2 technology ensures detailed image capture even in dimly lit environments, making it ideal for nighttime surveillance or low-light areas. The rolling shutter provides smooth video capture, ensuring distortion-free imaging in typical security environments.

With a 2.9 x 2.9 μm pixel size, the IMX664AAQR1-C offers excellent light-gathering capabilities, which enhances image quality under various lighting conditions. Its MIPI interface supports fast and efficient data transfer, facilitating easy integration into modern security camera systems. The LGA 132-pin package ensures durability and flexibility, making the sensor suitable for a variety of industrial and security applications where long-term reliability is essential.

The Sony IMX664AAQR1-C combines the latest in Starvis 2 imaging technology with high-speed performance and low-light capabilities, making it a top choice for a wide range of security and surveillance solutions. Whether used in residential, commercial, or industrial security systems, this sensor offers the clarity, performance, and reliability needed for modern surveillance needs.
