Samsung released four ISOCELL 0.7μm-level pixel image sensors, namely the 108-megapixel ISOCELL HM2, 64-megapixel ISOCELL GW3, 48-megapixel ISOCELL GM5 and 32-megapixel image sensors. ISOCELL JD1. Samsung said that with its new 0.7μm ISOCELL technology, Samsung plans to expand ultra-high resolution products to mainstream smartphones.
Yongin Park, executive vice president of Samsung Electronics’ sensor business, said: “Samsung continues to lead innovation by providing more pixels in a smaller package size. Last year, Samsung launched its first 108-megapixel sensor. Now, Samsung will be more advanced. The pixel technology is applied to mobile cameras, providing a variety of options.”
Samsung’s latest image sensor has a pixel size of 0.7μm, which is 15% smaller than a 0.8μm sensor with the same resolution, and reduces the height of the camera module by 10%. The smaller form factor gives smartphone manufacturers greater flexibility in developing next-generation devices. In order to collect sufficient light in the case of extremely small pixels, Samsung has adopted advanced ISOCELL Plus and Smart-ISO technologies, especially optimized for 0.7μm.
In terms of CMOS size, the brand new 100 million pixel ISOCELL HM2 is 1/1.52 inches, and the 32 million pixel JD1 size is only 1/3.14 inches.
