These new offerings include the XGS 45000, the XGS 30000 and the XGS 20000, which provide detailed imaging with up to 45 Mp for resolution critical applications and up to 60 fps in 8K video mode. Also available is the new XGS 5000, which has been designed with low power performance and state-of-the art image quality for compact camera designs. Alongside the XGS 5000, 3 Mp and 2 Mp variants have been released for production.
All of these devices deliver high resolution while the advanced pixel design ensures low noise performance and image quality that is essential in many challenging IoT applications such as machine vision and Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS).
A global shutter ensures that moving objects can be captured without any motion artifacts and to simplify and accelerate time-to-market, the XGS devices offer a common architecture which allows one camera design to be developed easily with multiple resolutions.
ON Semiconductor is also offering a wide range of development tools to support the design process. A demo kit includes a hardware platform with DevSuite software allowing full sensor evaluation with access to all register settings.
The X-Celerator platform includes public FPGA code and provides a direct interface to standard FPGA development environments including Xilinx and Altera. Supporting XGS devices up to 16 Mp, the X-Cube platform is a full 29 x 29 mm2 reference design that offers HiSPi-to-MIPI conversion via a Lattice FPGA as well as image capture, processing and analysis using the DevSuite software.
