New High-Speed SXGA CMOS Image Sensor LUPA-1300-2

Cypress's broad CMOS image sensor portfolio delivers high-performance sensors for machine vision and motion analysis, ultra high-speed imaging solutions for automotive safety and consumer-oriented solutions including large-format printers and scanners.

The new high-sensitivity, high-speed SXGA (Super Extended Graphics Array) resolution LUPA-1300-2 CMOS sensor offers a triggered and pipelined synchronous shutter and 10-bit analog-to-digital converter (ADC) with LVDS (Low Voltage Differential Signaling) outputs.

The synchronous snapshot shutter makes it possible to read one image while the next is being acquired and to capture moving objects without distortion. It also has a multiple slope capability to maintain good contrast in shadowed regions without saturating bright areas in scenes with a high contrast ratio.

Developed for machine vision and motion analysis applications, the 1.3-megapixel image sensor features a high frame rate of 500 frames-per-second (fps) and windowing capability enabling the user to read out only regions of interest and increasing the effective frame rate.

The LUPA-1300-2 has 1280 x 1024 pixels with 14µm x 14 µm pixel size. The image sensor integrates a programmable offset and gain amplifier for each channel of the LVDS outputs. Each channel runs at a 61 MHz pixel rate. All internal exposure and read-out timings are generated by an on-board sequencer.

Prototype samples of the LUPA-1300-2 are currently available in monochrome (CYIL2SM1300AA-GDC) with an RGB version in development , production devices are expected in 2008.
