e2v Announces 80% QE CMOS Sensor Technology

e2v has developed a new, high QE (>80%), CMOS sensor technology. The new custom sensors generation also features a low-noise, full-frame global shuttering scheme.

This technology is particularly suited to performance-driven markets, such as surveillance, homeland security, Automotive Driver Active Safety (ADAS) applications, industrial machine vision including barcode reading, professional DSLRs and broadcast/cinematography cameras and deep UV inspection systems for the semiconductor industry.

Further improvements in signal to noise ratio in the global shutter architecture are planned for future standard products built on the high sensitivity platform.
