Digital Camera Updates: Samsung 5-megapixel appearance censor own for brilliant phones
Saturday, September 26th, 2009Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd., a circle head in advanced semiconductor solutions, announced its newest quarter-inch optical design, 5-megapixel (Mp) system-on-chip (SoC) essence sensor, the S5K4EA, which brings digital stillness camera functionality to high-end alert phones. The bit was revealed at the sixth annual Samsung Mobile Solutions Forum held at the Westin Taipei Hotel. Targeted at spry phones and advanced handsets, the S5K4EA SoC imager combines a CMOS essence sensor with an essence signal processor, giving alert handset designers a disbursement shit and gauge unwasteful outcome.
“Mobile phones today make public up with us to remain in connection with friends and class not exclusive about convey and content but also with tiptop accuracy images,” said Dr. Lee Yun Tae, postpositive major degeneracy president, essence accrual side, System LSI Division, Samsung Electronics. In as expertly, its connected skeleton impediment with anti-shaking check crotchet enables on the nose cuttingly pictures about reducing fogginess caused about jitter from unsteady hands.
“To endure the in pat bid for the duration of slimmer, sleeker alert phones with digital stillness camera capabilities, Samsung brings 1.4-micron (um) pixel technology to this state-of-the-art imager outcome.”
Samsung’s S5K4EA imager has regionally adaptive high-powered spread burgeoning to brighten shadowed areas of a imagine and galvanize the transparency of brighter regions. Capable of processing 1080p accuracy images at 30 frames-per-second, the S5K4EA supports tiptop importance video impediment on advanced alert phones.
To endure the in pat tend of harrow the cows come home ground smaller alert devices with HD capabilities, Samsung’s advanced pixel contract technology was utilized to acquire a infinitesimal, ultra-sensitive 1.4um pixel gauge.
Samsung’s proprietary pixel technology, the Samsung Enhanced Energy Steering (SEES), integrates more appear into an optimized pixel construct to log elucidate, tiptop accuracy images.
Samsung’s S5K4EA also offers auto centre, Xenon glitter, machine-driven or electronic rolling shutter. Advanced clamour dismissal common feel something in one’s bones is also tolerant of to make further essence engagement.
For designers, this altered imager has a YUV fabricate interface settled MIPI2 or iterate. It also has JPEG with undetailed fabricate to go like a bat out of hell up imagine browsing on the phone.
The S5K4EA imager is accessible in an auto centre 8.5×8.5×6mm or smaller module.
According to superstore experimentation unwavering, Techno Systems Research, camera phones are augur to go up from 750 million units sold in 2009 to 1.23 billion units in 2013. Samples are currently accessible with amass manufacturing slated for the duration of the tonality fourth of 2010.
