Samsung Announces Mass Production of Industry’s First Mobile Image Sensor with 1.0μm Pixels
As mobile devices get thinner, the components inside them must scale down, too. Samsung’s latest chip, the 1.0μm-pixel-based 16 megapixel (MP) CMOS image sensor, did exactly that. It brings high resolution imaging to one of the slimmest smartphones in the market. Image sensors hold an array of pixels, or pockets that collect light particles called photons. Better the image sensor, the more light it accurately captures through its pixels, which it then converts into electrical signals. Therefore, more pixels that are larger in size allow for better picture quality. Slimmer devices have less space for interior components, so pixels get smaller as well, making the absorption of photons much more…
