The OV2610 CameraChip from OmniVision is a high-performance CMOS image sensor highly suitable for digital still image and video/still camera products.

The OV2610 CameraChip from OmniVision is a high-performance CMOS image sensor highly suitable for digital still image and video/still camera products The OV2610 incorporates a 1600 x 1200 (UXGA) image array and on-chip 10bit A/D convertor capable of operating at up to 10 frames per second with full resolution and 40 frames per second at SVGA (800 x 600) resolution

Proprietary sensor technology utilises advanced algorithms to cancel fixed pattern noise (FPN) and provides superior black level calibration for optimal colour performance.

The device is easy to use, with not just the image sensor on-chip, but the complete image processing system and a fast data interface allowing direct access to the captured image information.

The control registers also allow for flexible control of timing, polarity and CameraChip operation, which in turn allows the engineer a great deal of freedom in product design.

Other features of the OV2610 include video or snapshot operation, programmable image windowing, variable frame rate control in addition to internal/external frame synchronisation.

Managing Director of TDC, Jerry Sandys comments, "The OV2610 brings high resolution sensors to the OEM market at a very low price with the best performance in terms of integration and low-light operation".
