The 5MP GMAX2505 is pin compatible with the 9MP GMAX2509 and the 26MP GMAX0505. All three sensors are designed with the same 2.5 μm global shutter pixel and identical sequencer operation, significantly reducing development cost and minimizing camera time to market for this c-mount compatible product family.
Using advanced processing technology, the 2.5 μm global shutter pixel achieves 65% peak QE, excellent angle response, and a parasitic light sensitivity less than -80 dB. The sensor supports both 10bit operation for a maximum frame rate of 290 fps at <0.9 W, and 12-bit operation for a dynamic range over 65 dB at <0.6 W. Multiplexing of the 20 pairs of sub-LVDS channels allows for optimization between speed and dynamic range to suit the application. The 226-pin Land Grid Array ceramic package and protective tape on the cover glass facilitate efficient camera production. The sensor is available in both monochrome and Bayer versions to support use in a variety of applications including machine vision, QA inspection, intelligent traffic systems, and surveillance.
