CMOS industrial cameras from IDS
20 Apr 2015
Recognising the developments in CMOS sensor technology, IDS decided three years ago to stop engineering CCD cameras and concentrate exclusively on CMOS cameras.
The company says it will also not be affected by Sony’s announcement that it will stop the production of CCD sensors in March 2017.
Although Sony’s CCD sensor production will cease in 2017, delivery is guaranteed for some sensors into 2020 and others into 2026, IDS says.
This gives users of CCD cameras enough lead time to ensure the supply for long-term projects or to switch to CMOS technology.
IDS can already offer an extensive portfolio of GigE, USB2.0 and USB3.0 CMOS cameras featuring high-performance sensors by Aptina, CMOSIS and e2v as well as Sony themselves.
Cameras with sensors by ON Semiconductor are also in preparation.
In addition, the full roadmap of Sony Pregius CMOS sensors will be integrated into future products.
